The Dugout Discussion – Man City vs Arsenal

The Gameweek begins with a bang. Matches don’t come any bigget than City vs Arsenal – a top of the table clash between the two major attacking forces in the Premier League to this point.

City put their 100% home record on the line against an Arsenal side that oozes class and creativity from midfield. With 29 goals amassed in front of their own fans, it’s hard to see the Gunners keeping Manuel Pellegrini’s side at bay and yet Arsenal’s rearguard arrives in Manchester having conceded more than one goal in a league match just once all season. Something has to give and Fantasy managers will be hoping that the likes of Sergio Aguero, Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil are in the mix when the blows are exchanged.

Look out for the latest team sheet news via our Twitter feed, while our Duguout Discussion chatroom will accompany you throughout the match and into the three o’clock kick-offs to cater for your real-time needs.

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

      Thanks for the lineup work.

      Just realized I have no players in tomorrow's early matches. 8 today and 3 in the nightcap tomorrow.

      Depending on how long he's out for, I guess it enables everyone to get Rooney-Suarez-Lukaku. But that's a bad thing, everyone will have the same strike force!

    The team I am looking at now for next week is unbelievable and I can JUST afford it to. I will have £0.0m in the bank. It requires a - 8 and 4 transfers though. I have 2FT. But what a team it is.

        I'll be mulling on it tonight thats for sure. If I do it I think it will be the best team I've ever had in this game. Midifield of Walcott - Hazard - Ramsey - Silva, front 3 of Lukaku - Suarez - Rooney. Johnson - Coleman - Evans at the back. Mignolet in goal.
