And we’re back in the game.

The Dugout Discussion kicks back into gear with seven Premier League fixtures spreading across a period of more than six hours. We start off slowly with a small tie up at Anfield between Liverpool and Manchester United…

There is a lot of news in the line-up front. Liverpool recall their captain -Steven Gerrard- to make his first start in over six months after recovery from injury as Andy Carroll drops out. The away side pose the real questions as Javier Hernandez, Nani and Wayne Rooney are left on the bench by Alex Ferguson in a bold/foolish (delete as appropriate after the game) move. Line-ups to be digested in full are…

Liverpool XI: Reina; Kelly, Carragher, Skrtel, Enrique; Lucas, Adam Gerrard, Downing, Kuyt; Suarez

United XI: De Gea; Smalling, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra; Young, Fletcher, Jones, Giggs, Park; Welbeck

Not long after the dust has settled on that almighty introduction we’ll have five three o’clock kick-offs to keep the flow going. Wigan host Bolton with the Scout Selection Committee keeping closes eyes on a certain Victor Moses.

A few more people will be distracted by the Man City line-up as they play host to Aston Villa while Norwich, QPR and Stoke play host to Swansea, Blackburn and Fulham respectively – varied squad “fillers” aplenty in those games to keep track of.

Before the night draws in the Dugout Discussion closes out with Chelsea playing host to an Everton side who have a strong record over recent seasons against their fellow side in blue. Can David Moyes keep up the good streak and spoil the Villas-Boas broth?

    I'm starting to lose patience on any Chelsea defender including Bosingwa.

    They concede pretty much every game regardless and it's becoming annoying.

        QPR will score vs Chelsea.

        They'll lose probably 7-1 but they'll still score.

          You see us scoring next week? I don't.

          I see Chelsea scoring 7 easily though. Probably in the first half.

          the blues with 8 goals then lol ........ anyway i think chelsea will leak single goal and logical speaking will get away with victory 3-1 or 4-1 in the end .....

    Well, I was wrong...3-1, not 3-0 cause Chelsea can't keep a freaking clean sheet. Not even against Everton. I've been wanting to get rid of Bosingwa for a loooong time and I think this may be the week

      I don't think I'll get rid in the next 2-3 GWs but he's getting closer to being shown the door.

      With Bosingwa you're basically relying on assists and maybe the odd goal, because cleansheets just aint gonna happen.

        yeah and I could pick up Enrique for cheaper and rely on his assists and cleansheets and put that .8 or so somewhere useful. So frustrating! I'm kinda disappointed in City conceding, but Bent was offside :/

      Likewise.

      Fortunately, the good players in my mini league will have many of the top, form players such as Silva, Rooney, Nasri, Young, Nani etc... so in theory, it shouldn't affect as it could have.

        yeah that's true. Glad Rooney didn't doo much, same with Agbonlahor and Adeboyor hopefully won't play. Good luck!

          There's been hardly any CS this weekend so far and many of the high scoring mids + attackers haven't played many minutes.

          If RVP rips it up, like I hope, it could turn out to be a surprising green arrow.

          I'm on 18 with 5 to play: Krul, Ward, VDV, Best, RVP(C)

          So fingers crossed.

      No major shock though he's been good at the Bridge.

      This is one of the few occasions when I say, fair play for anyone who owns him as the stats are speaking for themselves.

          Haha... Ramires has been on my watchlist for a while.

          I opted for Sturridge instead though, for the short term anyway.

    Hey guys, please help me sort out this mess!

    Schwarzer Mignolet

    TaylorS Bosingwa Enrique BrownW Warnock

    Silva Barton Moses Dyer PetrovM

    RVP Hernandez Best

    7.4m in bank, planning on Hernandez>Suarez next week, and need to get rid of 2/3 of Barton/Moses/Dyer as I'm sick of 2 pointers every week. Thinking VDV will be the best replacement for Barton, which would leave me with roughly 9m to replace any of the other two. Suggestions??
