After a frenetic Deadline Day Tuesday that saw an abundance of big-name moves, such as Nikica Jelavic to Everton (massive), the Dugout Discussion returns to complete Gameweek 23. We’ve got five more Premier League fixtures to pour over tonight, but with most of the big-hitters on show yesterday, fantasy points may be a little thin on the ground.

We start at Villa Park with a slightly earlier kick-off, where Alex McCleish’s side play host Mark Hughes’ Queens Park Rangers. The other four games get under way on the hour, including the televised game at the Stadium of Light between Sunderland and Norwich City (definitely worth watching ahead of Valencia Vs. Barcelona).

There’s also Blackburn Rovers versus Newcastle United, Arsenal travel to the Reebok Stadium to face Bolton Wanderers, and a Bobby Zamora-less Fulham welcome the visit of Roy Hodgson’s West Bromich Albion.

Follow all the action in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which will remain open until all the dust has settled from what has already been an eventful Gameweek 23.

    First week of Mignolet Krul and I miss another. This is getting beyond Granville levels of injustice 👿

    Skills from Senderos on the right wing. Riise on the left, short to Davies, now Murphy, great pass to DEMPSEY but Olsson gets a nick on his shot and Foster claims!

    42'Riise in lots of space wide left but his cross is too deep. Fulham wanted the free-kick. But they still have it, Murphy from the right, good cross that Tamas just flicks away! Now Riise has it, Sidwell with a one-two with Ruiz and he's in but he lifts it over Dempsey flying in! Low ball would have been a tap-in!!

    10'GOAL FULHAM! No! Dempsey offside after a super through ball from Duff but clever defending from the centre-backs - Shorey almost played him on though!

    Krul playing for me due to Lindegaard injury.

    If I had bottled it yesterday Mignolet would have been substituted in and playing so that worked out well.

    I captained Sess instead of Bale, so hoping my luck means that Sess is going to outscore Bale aswell 😉

    Touch and go whether it's a McClean assist. He's not in the area (or is he) when he plays it (or the NOR defender does) to Campell to score.
