Sunday Dugout Discussion

With yesterday’s results overshadowed by the now infamous non-handshake at Old Trafford, the Dugout Discussion opens today for what will hopefully be a controversy-free day of football. Having been displaced at the summit of the Premier League, Manchester City travel to Aston Villa where a draw will see them climb back to the top. Before that we have a Black Country derby to enjoy, as Wolves aim to drag their rivals West Brom in to the relegation scrap, and the Baggies try to increase their breathing space from it. The team news is in…

Wolves XI: Hennessey, Foley, Johnson, Bassong, Ward, Doyle, Edwards, O’Hara, Jarvis, Ebanks-Blake, Fletcher.

West Brom XI: Foster, Reid, McAuley, Olsson, Ridgewell, Odemwingie, Morrison, Scharner, Mulumbu, Thomas, Fortune.

Mick McCarthy names an attacking side which features a trio of strikers in Sylvan Ebanks-Blake, Kevin Doyle and Steven Fletcher. For the visitor’s, Liam Ridgewell makes his debut for West Brom at the expense of Nicky Shorey, and Paul Scharner starts ahead of Graeme Dorrans.

You can follow all the action as it happens in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which can be accessed right here.

    I thought Aguero would get 2 points. Wanted to bench him for McClean but couldn't bring myself to do it.

            None of those decisions affected my team but I just find the guys tactics so negative all the time. SAF and Arry are far more attack minded and make interesting tactical changes. Mancini specializes in the supremely boring.

        Same here, but i take it as it is. Dzeko was a cheap option to City attacking football. Risk was always rhat he would come onfor 1 pt, mostly away from home.
        Having said tat, Dzeko get te feck out of my team, Dema Ba welcome son
