The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

As Luis Suarez continues to make football look easy, rendering Fantasy football a simple game in the process, we tot up another ridiculous points haul whilst turning attention to the day’s three o’clock kick-offs.

Six matches follow shortly, including Man United’s attempt to avoid the unthinkable – three consecutive home league defeats. They face shot-shy West Ham at Old Trafford, while the not so shot-shy City take a trip to take on Fulham at the Cottage, without the goal power of Sergio Aguero.

Stoke and Sunderland host Villa and Norwich respectively, while Palace look to continue their recent revival with a Selhurst Park clash with Newcastle. Managerless West Brom round things off as they take on Hull City at the Hawthorns.

Look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news from these encounters, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom remains ajar for those partial to some real-time reaction.

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

    So is Silva still a better choice than Yaya?

    Beginning to think my Jedinak Redmond to Walcott Silva move is a bad one.

    Rather to Redmond Ravel to Yaya Walcott instead? Jedinak on the bench though, nailed on for 1-2 points.

      I got Yaya in a little over a month ago. People on here always say he's not a good pick but he's been my most consistent midfielder and gets my points nearly every week so I'd say go for Yaya

        Good on you for not listening to the crowd.

        As long as he brings home the bacon. I knew what he was capable of since he was in Barca. Remembered his last game w Barca he was charging down forward a powerful solo run.

        Didn't expect his type of playing is gonna bring FPL points though. Guess this season is just the season of box to box player.

          I remember a guy saying about two seasons ago that I'm going to get Yaya at the start of every season because he's always up there with the top scoring mids and he always starts at a decent price. I think he was pretty spot on w/ that. More incentive now that Aguero is out for a few weeks and Yaya is on pens.

    This 4-3-3/4-5-1 has brought the best out of Cleverley for United, and allows us to control the game, 70% possession and more chances created than the bog-standard 4-4-2.
