[sbu_large_image] Dugout Discussion

3 March 2012 3294 comments

Akers

We’ve got seven games to pour over today, starting with a trip to Anfield where Arsenal and the newly-crowned Carling Cup Champions Liverpool lock horns. After that there are six 3pm games, including an opportunity for the league leaders Man City to once again open up a five-point gap at the top. The Dugout Discussion opens it’s doors for what promises to be another action-packed day of Premier League football.

The team news for our opener are in, and here is how they line-up…

Liverpool XI: Reina, Kelly, Skrtel, Carragher, Jose Enrique, Spearing, Kuyt, Henderson, Adam, Downing, Suarez.
Arsenal XI: Szczesny, Sagna, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Arteta, Song, Walcott, Rosicky, Benayoun, van Persie.

The home side are without their captain Steven Gerrard after he suffered a hamstring injury whilst on International duty with England. Also missing out through injury is Daniel Agger, which gives Jamie Carragher an opportunity to start. Andy Carroll is on the bench along with Craig Bellamy, which leave Luis Suarez to lead the line up front alone.

In contrast, the visitors have their talismanic captain Robin van Persie available to play, after it was feared he could miss the clash through similar circumstances to his opposite number. Arsene Wenger keeps faith with Yossi Benayoun and Tomas Rosicky after their fantastic win against fierce rivals Spurs last week. That means there is no place for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain once more.

After the dust has settled at Anfield, we’ve got six more games to come: Blackburn Vs. Aston Villa, Man City Vs. Bolton, QPR Vs. Everton, Stoke Vs. Norwich, West Brom Vs. Chelsea and Wigan Vs. Swansea.

So settle down and enter the Dugout Discussion chatroom, which can be accessed right here.

Stupid question but if I have a treble on anytime goalscorers and one of them doesn't play the bet becomes a double right?

I don't think that Aguero being on the bench matters too much. Anyone who matters has him captain anyway, he will come on for 1 point, doesn't really matter.

Silva coming off the bench and scoring/assisting & Aguero making a cameo of a minute or two and getting a single point will be ideal.

Make it happen, Mancini.
