Dugout Discussion

Saturday Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 5

We start Gameweek 5 at the Liberty Stadium, as Michael Laudrup’s Swansea host Everton. The Dugout Discussion is open, so come in and follow all the day’s action amongst fellow fantasy football managers. The team news is in and there’s one or two surprises…

Swansea XI: Vorm, Rangel, Tate, Williams, Davies, Ki, de Guzman, Michu, Hernandez, Routledge, Graham.

Everton XI: Howard, Neville, Heitinga, Jagielka, Baines, Osman, Pienaar, Coleman, Fellaini, Mirallas, Anichebe.

Following their defeat at Aston Villa last time out, Nathan Dyer and Leon Britton drop to the bench with Ki Sung Yueng and Pablo Hernandez coming in.

Having scored on Monday night against Newcastle, Victor Anichebe earns a starting berth, replacing the injured Nikica Jelavic.

There’s another five Premier League fixtures to enjoy after Swansea and Everton do battle – so plenty of fantasy points on offer all round. The Dugout Discussion chatroom is the place to see them roll in, which can be accessed right here.

    Pienaar had better get the assist for that.

    surely if the chap shoots and vorm touches it onto the bar its a save and then he put the rebound in so no assist?

      Nope, last player to touch the ball on the scoring team, no touch in the box from an opposition player makes any difference.

      Nice for me, as its a Pienaar assist and a Vorm save point!

          It goes on tonight, garuntee.

          Read the rules, don't go by what you think an assist is.

    7 overs match confirmed btw.....Hope you don't have a bowler as captain, cause a huge change he might get smashed. But then he could also take wickets. SA batting first
