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.

    What do we reckon ? Low scoring GW at the moment?
    only Aguero and RVP with high percentage ownership performing.
    Richards 14% is fairly high also.

      Richards got buggered by the late lost CS, RVP is at his highest yet at 25% but not in "ubiquitous" territory like Aguero and Rooney (and Nani) were in the high forties, Everyone else who scored highly were very obscure, except Baines who is much more of an FFS obsession than FPL in general. I'd be surprised if the average reached 40.

          I think we're likely to get hit 50+ with BPs so not a bad score at all. A chugging-along score which might even get a small rise.

            At least for me I was never seeing this as a big-scoring week because fixtures for many of the big six were crap. Relative to my expectations for the week, I've slightly overperformed so far.
