The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Following a dramatic Stadium of Light clash, we can now look forward to five three o’clock kick-offs keep Saturday’s action moving, before Liverpool host Villa in the evening encounter.

Fantasy managers will be fixated on events at the Emirates and the Etihad as Arsenal and City face up to favourable opponents on home turf. The likes of David Silva, Yaya Toure and Alvaro Negredo will be well backed ahead of their meeting with Cardiff, while Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud will be amongst the names being watched keenly when Fulham draw up in North London.

Elsehwhere, many Fantasy managers will be hoping for Palace to reconstruct fortress Selhurst Park and earn a clean sheet against visiting Stoke. Meanwhile, Norwich host Hull City and West Ham look to continue their revival against Newcastle at the Boleyn Ground.

You can look to our Twitter feed for the teamsheet news, whilst the Dugout Discussion chatroom will remain available right up until the final whistle at Anfield this evening.

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

      Hmm, coverage for teams like Arsenal is essential in my opinion, what if Arsenal had gone apeshit, if Fulham had a man sent off or just didn't turn up, agonising to watch if you don't have any of their attackers.

      Don't do it. They won't play a tactical disaster like Liverpool every week. I get they want to play their attacking players but surely Rodgers must realise playing Lucas allows them to get on the ball whilst things are kept tighter at the back. They can't be playing two in the middle of the park, Gerrard ain't got the legs and Henderson ain't got the discipline
