The Dugout Discussion – Sunderland Vs Southampton

18 January 2014 2167 comments

Paul

The first of seven Saturday encounters kicks off at the Stadium of Light as Sunderland entertain Southampton this lunchtime.

Following the Wearside encounter, there are five games to focus on at 3pm, with Arsenal and City’s home clashes against Fulham and Cardiff heavily-backed by Fantasy managers. The evening match at Anfield then follows, as Captain Poll favourite Luis Suarez looks to run riot against Villa’s porous backline.

The Black Cats are looking for a fourth straight win on all competitions and, having already beaten City, Chelsea and United at home under Gus Poyet, they’ll fancy their chances of claiming another scalp against Adam Lallana and co.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom has opened up to cater for your real-time requirements for this game and all of today’s matches.

  World Cup Johnson.
  
  He looks a great player when he is confident and well motivated. Poyet has done a wonderful job getting him back in form.

Very surprised Gibbs is benched for Monreal. Particularly as he was supposedly 1st choice, and Monreal took that serious knock in the villa game. Any arsenal fans able to shed some light?

  Was just about to post about this - Monreal first choice would be interesting.

  A surprise to me too. No idea what the reasons are. Is Gibbs on the bench? Maybe an illness or something.

    Yeah he is. It could just be Wenger not rushing him back after his own injury

  Monreal has been more consistent this season when he plays the minutes when compared to Gibbs, and I would even go that far to say this has been one of Gibbs best season. Overall Gibbs is probably still first choice, but this is most rest and rotation than anything.

  Surprised myself but the boss doesn't like rotation too much and that probably has swung it. Majority of Arsenal fans I know expected Podolski to start in place of Cazorla too.
