Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Gameweek 28 concludes with three concurrent Premier League meetings, all kicking off at the unfamiliar time of 4.30pm.

It’s fair to say that the attentions of Fantasy Football managers will be firmly focused on White Hart Lane, where Spurs host a Cardiff side that has shipped 14 goals in their previous five away trips. We’re all anticipating a big home win, with Emmanuel Adebayor carrying the captaincy hopes for so many. Given Luis Suarez’s haul in yesterday’s win at Southampton, the expectation on the Spurs striker to deliver has intensified.

Elsewhere, owners of Robert Snodgrass will be hoping that he can maintain the form that saw him snatch the winner against Spurs last time out. The Scot is part of the Norwich side that faces up to Villa in the midlands today, while over in South Wales, Swansea will host Crystal Palace, with Wilfried Bony perhaps the most significant Fantasy asset on show.

Our Twitter feed will supply all the teamsheet news from these encounters, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom is once again open and welcoming all-comers who are in search of some real-time reactions.

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

    Can't believe what kind of gw this once again turned out to be.

    Everything looked so great thursday - Eriksen & Ade combo back in action and running a riot.
    Boosted my confidence so much that even captained Adebayor and vice on Suarez.
    Starting to wish this season could come to an end sooner rather than later!

    Spurs looks so boooring without Eriksen.
