Saturday Dugout Discussion

Thereโ€™s no less than eight Premier League encounters coming our way today, starting with QPRโ€™s vital home clash with an out-of-sorts Norwich at Loftus Road. Thatโ€™s followed by a host of three oโ€™clock matches, with the likes of Theo Walcott and Juan Mata in action, before Robin Van Persie takes to the field at Craven Cottage later this evening, sporting the Fantasy armband for many yet again.

Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and will remain your stop off for real-time venting as the ninety minutes are played out.

The team news from Shepherd’s Bush finds Harry Redknapp handing QPR debuts to both Chris Samba and Andos Townsend, while both Shaun Wright-Phillips and Jamie Mackie also earn recalls. Ryan Nelsen has, of course, now departed for Toronto, Esteban Granero drops out, while Nedum Onuoha and Loic Remy miss out through injury, presumably sustained in training late on Friday. Visitors Norwich are unchanged, with new signing Luciano Becchio nestled on the bench.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Everyone will say "Samba is a beast in the air" etc. but I don't think there's much between them in terms of goal threat. Hill's your man.

            Yes, which is why we should have not p*ssed about haggling over a million quid and got Odemwingie in.

            We knew we needed another goalscorer as well as Remy but failed to address that glaring need. When you are the lowest scoring team in the Prem you kind of know what your weakness is and it isn't needing more defensive mids.

            On the bright side, we have the best defence of all the relegation teams.
