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.

    Say what you will about Harry Redknapp and his managerial skills (i know im one of his doubters), but he manages to put together hard working sides. Money spent aside, the players they have gotten in since he took over is looking good, even though they overpaid a lot. Hughes never managed this, he just bought for the sake of buying. Sh!t manager.

      He's a motivator and good man-manager, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. The idea that you have to be a master tactician to be a good manager is hipster bollocks imo.

        Well it is and it`s not. He`s great for clubs in somewhat of a troublesome situation, he is both those things you said. He`s not really a "top" club manager, and he`s not really capabable of running a clubs finances well :p That said, he`s quite the character and i for one find him entertaining.

    Zabaleta | Azpilicueta | Davies | Clyne | Demel
    Mata | Walcott | Michu | Fellani | Guthrie
    RVP | Aguero | Sturridge

    0.0 in the bank, 2 FT.

    Not sure what to do for the DGW...
    Jose Enrique is on the radar, but with 0.0 in the bank I can't buy back whoever I sell.
    Advice would be appreciated, thank you! ๐Ÿ™‚

      Aguero > suarez is the obvious route.

        Yeah, I was looking at that before...
        But vs. Southampton is still decent really.
        Last resort I'd say..

          Take that back, two home games > one away game

        Hmm yeh and this will require Villa getting 7 points between now and the end of the season!!

        Still one team always goes into freefall from midtable obscurity and I reckon Norwich
