The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Gameweek 27 concludes with three matches that address both title ambitions and relegation concerns.

Liverpool’s credentials as title challengers will come under the spotlight as they clash with Swansea at Anfield. The visitors come into the game potentially leg weary after their fine performance against Napoli in the Europa League on Thursday. In contrast, Brendan Rodgers side will be fresh and looking build on their last two home appearances which has seen them claim nine goals against the Everton and Arsenal defences.

Elsewhere, Newcastle will be looking to stem the tide of three straight defeats without a goal as they face up to Villa at St James’ Park. Paul Lambert’s side will be seeking to come away from the North East with at least a point to consolidate their position outside of the relegation places.

Events then conclude at Carrow Road, with Norwich battling to keep themselves out of the bottom three and hoping to get a result against a Totteham outfit that struck four goals on their last away trip at Newcastle.

Look to our Twitter feed for all the lineup news, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open for those looking to partake in some real-time banter.

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

      he's shown no credibility in the FPL game. There's a 5% chance it could be an inspired punt, but I highly (95%) doubt it.

          😉 In all seriousness it's a shame to see such a club in trouble, it's a difficult situation made worse by the league's quality waning somewhat and of course the off field troubles of recent times.

            The main problem has been the management of the club, made worse by the financial situation of the league.

            There have been some recent signs of improvement and Athletico Madrid, who are right up there with Barca and Real, were very lucky not to lose midweek against us but I don't see the team winning anything in the near future.
