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.

    Somebody console me..

    Aguero (c) and Silva (vc) DID NOT work out, especially with my other other big hitters of RVP, Rooney and Dempsey all have blinders.

    On the other hand my Sorensen > Begovic transfer worked wonders, and I have 20 points coming off my bench in McAuley, Dyer, and Jevans for Bale, Aguero and Silva.

    I just keep thinking what if I hadn't taken the Vice off Dempsey on Saturday morning and put it on Silva!

    So Ferguson owners seem to be doing the right thing, a whole 3 points coming off my bench for Aguero, Silva and Richards. Next year deffo tempted to have a cheap not playing player. Incidentally why is Ferguson the only mid on 4.0m must be other/worse players who dont play

    Need to get Skrtel in, who to sub out? 2.3 in bank, team below:

    Mignolet (Vorm)
    Evans, Richards, Caulker (Williamson, Shotton)
    Dempsey, Silva, Bale, Valencia (McClean)
    RVP(c), Rooney(vc), Ba

    A) Richards? Fancy him to get some minutes now
    B) Caulker? Already have vorm, but great value
    C) Shotton? Still not nailed on but good value at the moment
    D) Williamson? Newcastle haven’t looked solid at the back for a while.
    E) Something else

            Beware of the DGW. Liverpool will concede both games and Enrique/Skrtel will get you 3 or 4 points. I know it looks tempting on paper, but think about the form of teams, opponents, etc...may not be worth doubling up
