Sunday Dugout Discussion

Sunday brings us three Premier League matches, with events kicking off at midday with the Tyne-Wear derby clash and culminating with the titanic clash at White Hart Lane. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and will be around to soak your reactions as the day progresses.

The team news from the Sports Direct Arena brings us no surprises in the Newcastle lineup with Papiss Cisse shaking off a groin problem to partner Demba Ba up front. Martin O’Neill has given us food for thought, however, drafting in Nicklas Bendtner in attack, presumably shifting Stephane Sessegnon to a support role. Jack Colbak makes way, while Phil Bardsley recovers form a calf problem to take his place in the back four.

Enjoy the game, and the Fulham vs Wolves and Tottenham vs Man United clashes later today and pop into to the Dugout Discussion for some real-time Fantasy Football bantering.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      C) I guess. Could you afford Nani instead of Adam for B? I don't think giving up on Ba makes sense and getting two Liverpool attackers is just plain silly, even with the fixtures.

    I hate this game. Was a whisker away from Valencia to Sigurdson on Friday, now ended with nine players after the man city rotation debacle with Simpson and Enrique coming in with a total of 2 points to compensate for Bale, Aguero, Silva and Kelly.

    The only plus point is that Dempsey is now my captain but all my rivals have him in The Sun league, which is my cash league, not through my choice, and I don't.

    Rubbish.

              As a fullback I can tell you that 9 times out of 10 that would've bounced the other way into touch.

              He sliced the kick, but fair play to the guy, I like seeing audaciousness paying off
