The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday serves up a trio of Gameweek encounters, with Thursday’s Europa League ties pushing Hull and Tottenham’s home fixtures alongside Man United’s trip to the Stadium of Light.

Events begin at the KC Stadium and White Hart Lane, with Steve Bruce’s Hull hosting Stoke and Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs facing a London derby clash with QPR. Fantasy managers will be focused mainly on the latter, with Christian Eriksen the top owned asset on show from the early kick-offs.

Attention then turns to the North East, with Louis van Gaal’s United outfit taking on Sunderland in a bid to get their season underway following the opening day defeat to Swansea. With a staggering 48% ownership, Wayne Rooney remains the headline act, while Juan Mata’s 19% ownership will be holding out for returns in order to stem a tide of sales that have already seen the Spanish playmaker drop in price.

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

    Hey guys. I know FPL can be a pain at times especially with Chester and Bojan today, so I thought I might cheer you up.

    "Ooooooooohhhhhh,

    FPL can be such a pain,
    Especially when your travelling down the wrong lane,

    You want to watch the match,
    But there's always a catch,

    Mum calls you down for dinner,
    TV turned off as Van Persie scores the winner,

    Or Eriksen Lamela's assist,
    Which of course you just missed,

    Because your on fantasy football scout,
    And that's what it's all about,

    Your mate is giving Cleverly some stick,
    So you tell him to stop being such a pr*ck,

    Or when you transfer in Bobby Zamora 'for a joke'
    And then he misses a chance and you choke,

    Or the ball is planted on his head,
    And ends up lost somewhere in row Z,

    Ooh and you groan, how you groan...
    But you then realise your watching the best game the world has ever known.

    (Oh yay mata scored with a tap in...
    Get in!)

    When he has got one more goal and one assist by the end of Utd's "amazing run of fixtures" people won't be quite so cheery.
