The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Gameweek 32 continues with a pair of Sunday encounters featuring a host of Fantasy talent – mainly from Merseyside.

Everton’s trip to basement dwellers Fulham gets things underway in just a few minutes, as Roberto Martinez’s side look for a fifth consecutive victory to pile further pressure on Arsenal for fourth spot. Fantasy managers will be looking from continued returns from Messrs Coleman and Baines, while Romelu Lukaku seeks to maintain a run of four goals in five starts since his return from injury.

The focus then switches to Anfield, as Liverpool’s seemingly relentless goal scoring machine is targeted on the Tottenham defence. Brendan Rodgers’ men will again look to the combination of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge for the decisive strikes as they seek an eighth straight win, with Fantasy managers expectantly awaiting further hauls from the potent pairing.

Our Twitter feed has all the news from the teamsheets, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is once again open for any folk wishing to vent in real-time.

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

    if liverpool win they go top of the league, and i like that the last time they were top of the league they only fell away because they lost to city and chelsea, and they'll have the same chance against the same teams again and need to win to stay there this time.

            I know it's bad that they've spent so much money etc. but honestly I judge it on who I prefer watching. I really like watching Pool but I'm a huge fan of Yaya and Aguero, I think they're marvellous players. So for me City edge it...

                I do understand why people would prefer Pool. I like attacking football I just really don't like how open they leave themselves. I think there's a way to strike a good balance and I think City are possibly better in that regard. But hey, that's just my take 😀

    All right, Gerrard, let's have a hell of a game here. 10 points from 6 players thus far.

    Ok people, check this out...

    NO holding midfielders, and an AMC set to cover up the defence against Suárez, Sturridge, Coutinho, Sterling....

    8-0 on the cards

    Just praying for a miracle and hope Tottenham beat Liverpool, if they could just help us for ONCE.

    Come on Spurs 🙂

    Felt nice to take a punt on a non point snorer and for it to pay off. Still need Suarez to blank, but hey ho.

    Reckon Sterlings presence is more helpful to make Sturridge the spearhead? My rivals team and mine looks like every week will come down to me having and captaining Suarez and him having and captaining Sturridge.
