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.

  Southampton are strangling Sunderland right now.
  
  Bardsley is an excellent attacking threat - he could still pick up points IF Sunderland ken get themselves together.

Why do people have relegation fodder defenders and become surprised when they concede goals? I assume it can't be fixtures, because terrible teams don't have good fixtures.

Near heart attack! Clicked on points and it came up with my pre wildcard team. Three seconds can seem a very long time. Was on GW21 of course.
