The Dugout Discussion opens today for two Premier League games involving some of it’s most enjoyable teams to watch. Third-place chasing Spurs take on the exciting Swansea City after Newcastle host Liverpool, with the former fighting for European football.

The team news from the game at The Sports Direct Arena is in, and the sides line-up as follows…

Newcastle XI: Krul, Simpson, Williamson, Perch, Gutierrez, Guthrie, Tiote, Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Cisse, Ba.

Liverpool XI: Reina, Flanagan, Carragher, Skrtel, Jose Enrique, Shelvey, Spearing, Gerrard, Suarez, Carroll, Bellamy.

Alan Pardew is without the injured Fabricio Coloccini, which partners James Perch with Mike Williamson in central defence and puts Jonas Gutierrez in the left-back berth. It’s the same attacking mentality that served them so well at West Brom.

Liverpool also name an attacking side, knowing that a win here is essential if they want to overhaul the Magpies. Andy Carroll returns to his former stomping ground and starts alongside Luis Suarez.

Our Dugout Discussion chatroom will remain open all day, and can be accessed right here.

    Well, I have already decided my transfer for this week!

    Dempsey>VDV

    I love VDV as a football player and Spurs back again with their attacking. 🙂

    It is sad to say goodbye to you Dempsey, I will miss you in my team. 🙁

      Silva was incredible throughout a good part of the season though - I mean sublime.

      VDV is a class act though, yes.

        RVP. but its because the PP Cup is influencing (and therefore, scaring) me. Otherwise my choice was Bale.

    Blackburn & QPR in his next 3 fixtures plus he is playing GW34.

    Totally fed up of Ba. Obvious replacement is Cisse but I want as many GW34 players as poss.

    Think I'd assume he will have a part in both but maybe not finish the 2.
