Saturday Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 3

With the transfer window finally behind us, it’s back to matters on the pitch as Gameweek three gets underway. Due to Chelsea’s Super Cup participation, we’ve got just the nine fixtures to squeeze fantasy points out of, starting at Upton Park as West Ham host city rivals Fulham. The Dugout Discussion opens to see Andy Carroll make his West Ham debut…

West Ham XI: Jaaskelainen, Demel, Reid, Collins, O’Brien, Noble, Diame, Nolan, Vaz Te, Taylor, Carroll.

Fulham XI: Schwarzer, Riether, Hangeland, Hughes, Riise, Diarra, Sidwell, Richardson, Duff, Rodallega, Petric.

Deemed surplussed to requirements at Anfield, Andy Carroll makes an immediate start for the Hammers, at the expense of Carlton Cole.

Fulham have their own new big-name striker in Dimitar Berbatov, but have chosen to name the former Manchester United man on amongst the substitutes. There is a start however for Kieran Richardson, and Steve Sidwell comes in to fill the void left by Moussa Dembele.

There’s then five more Premier League games to enjoy, climaxing at the Etihad Stadium where there’s a repeat of the last season’s most memorable game, Manchester City versus Queen’s Park Rangers. The Dugout Discussion chatroom is the place follow all the action, and can be accessed right here.

        More like some knobheads that believe you should just bench a striker that did decent so far, for one that's out of shape and did nothing last week.

    I want to get rid of Petric. I Graham the only real option at 6.6 or less do you think?

        I was hoping to play him next week and away at Arsenal isn’t to great. I do quite fancy Kone’s chances though. Is he going to be playing the majority of the games now? I may go down that route

      Holt could be a great steal, however I would hold back on that transfer for a few days. If you can get 7.0 then I would also possibly consider Fletcher, especially considering the server he is likely to get from Johnson, McLean and Larsson.

    Burnley have tied up a sponsorship agreement with a local electronic cigarette company calling itself 'Totally Wicked'. Consequently the 'The Bob Lord Stand', named after the club's chairman from 1955 to 1981, will from today be known as 'Totally Wicked Bob Lord Stand'.
