The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

The climax. Ten Premier League matches, all at 3pm, with the title still to be decided.

We’ve been here several times and rarely does the last day disappoint. We anticipate drama and the unexpected – ingredients that are seldom positive for Fantasy managers looking for assured clean sheets and banked returns from their captain. The final day can be a lottery – that’s why we love it.

Attentions will, of course, be focused on the Etihad and Anfield, where City and Liverpool will look to seal the points that should and could, respectively, win them the title. We’ll also have one eye tracking the progress at the top of the Fantasy Premier League, as Fantasy Football Scout member, Tom Fenley, looks to fend off his challengers to claim his own crown. It’s going to be tense.

For the final time this season, our Twitter feed will update you on all the teamsheets from the day, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom is open for the very last time – our new Matchday Comments system will be tested during the World Cup in the Summer and will be our method of capturing your real-time reactions for the next campaign.

Well thank you FFS community, it has been a topsy turvy season but you gys have all been fantastic.

best first half of a season imaginable for me, but then a huge decline since january - 1k right down to 40k but finished quite strongly today.

Hope you have all won your mini leagues and lets get ready for the world cup!

A guy who hasn't changed his team in the last 2 gws wins the ML with Ramsey (C). Luck is way more important in this game than any type of "skill".

Just wanted to say that chasing down mini-leagues is very much possible!

Before today I had been behind in my two man mini-league for 37 out of 37 gameweeks - think at one point my rivals lead was 100+ points.

But after bonus points are released today I will have successfully clawed back the deficit. First time I will have lead it all season.

£100 coming my way!

Brilliant, well chuffed with that. Decent final gameweek, shame I couldn't claw back that deficit on my mini-league rival. City winning the title makes up for it though!

  changed my mind from sturridge to suarez at the last minute
  
  just couldnt see suarez not scoring and even sogned up to paddy power to put that 3/1 odds on anytime scorer on despite being broke.
