Saturday Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 5

22 September 2012 3583 comments

Akers

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.

      I'd get rid of someone else and get Fellaini in. Everton and Swansea have the best fixtures of ANYONE I reckon over the next couple weeks. West Brom look decent of course as do Spurs.
      
      Everton coverage is a must.

I took a 4 pt. hit this week to get Berbs in for Graham. Should I take another hit next week to do Ivanovic -> Baines? If yes, which move would you do to fund it?:

A) Friedel -> Foster

B) Michu -> Fellaini. (And triple up on Everton with Baines and Pienaar.)
