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.

Some advice please. Play WC now and have longer to pick or wait until the Transfer window is shut, but have less time to pick a team?

  Wait. More choice. Between now and then just make up your team and targets, without hitting the button of course, so you can maximise that short time.

      New players from outside the PL signed or loaned in before the deadline. The likes of Cardiff got 2 Norwegian lads in in the past fortnight.A few going out too. You mightn't want any of them but gives you more options.

  I'd have played mine this week if not for injuries to my squad.

Always liked JRod, but playing Boruc/Davies & Lalalalalalana kind of screws getting him in.

Switched keeper from Mannone to Boruc after checking the bookies clean sheet odds. There is a reason they make so much money I guess.
