We’ve got a mammoth eight games today to get us back into the swing of Premier League action today. We start the Dugout Discussion over in Norfolk as Paul Lambert and his band of merry men welcome Arsenal to Carrow Road…

Norwich make a couple of changes to the side that list at Villa Park before the international break with Andrew Crofts and David Fox coming in for Elliott Bennett and Grant Holt. Arsene Wenger, meanwhile, starts Laurent Koscielny at right-back with the rest of his side pretty much picking itself. Teams in full are…

Norwich XI:Ruddy; Naughton, Martin, Barnett, Tierney; Johnson, Crofts, Pilkington, Hoolahan (C), Fox; Morison.

Arsenal XI: Szczesny; Koscielny, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Andre Santos; Song, Ramsey, Arteta; Walcott, Gervinho, Van Persie.

Then we’ll be with good old Jeff Stelling and Merse -or Gabby Logan and Garth Crooks for those less fortunate- to take in a big bite of Gameweek 12 action with 6 three o’clock kick offs to keep our eyes on.

Man City (who will lead the line this time?) hosting Newcastle, Sunderland (the travails of one Nicklas Bendtner) welcoming Fulham and Everton (all eyes on the Drenthe bandwagon) vying with Wolves are the pick of the bunch for most Fantasy Managers out there.

Swansea’s imperious home record will face it’s sternest test yet in the evening kick-off as Manchester United pay visit and close out our bumper Saturday of Dugout Discussion action.

    There's your Aguero goal, to put with the Balotelli goal, and City cruising as I reckoned. Now the Silva assist...? 🙂

    Captain RVP for everyone. Captain Aguero for Big Dunc...

    I could really do with VDV keeping the form he had against Villa last season. Either that or not playing at all.

    Bad week.

      Don't understand why he hasn't graced the England team more frequently recently. Seems to be a stronger player than the other right backs and at the team who're currently playing the best in the pm.

          Yep I saw it, Johnson was on the sidelines waiting. But Mancini still went ahead with the mid>striker swap instead of bringing on Dzeko. Clearly more goals aren't his concern right now. Also think Johnson is better for pressing than Nasri anyways.

    Aguero subbed off because of injury. Anyway, it's good that he could walk out of the field by himself.

    Mancini... You should sub him out before your team got 2nd penalty to avoid this. My league leader (c) him!!!
