Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – QPR vs Stoke

European football ravages Saturday’s programme, leaving us with just half a dozen encounters. The day’s events start with what, on paper, looks a tepid affair: Stoke pay visit to Loftus Road to meet with Harry Redknapp’s newly promoted QPR.

Let’s not dress this up – Fantasy managers are likely to have little or no interest in this one. Having been disappointed by the impact of Bojan after his pre-season hype, we’ve steered clear of Mark Hughes’ Potters, bar skipper Ryan Shawcross who has a place in almost 15% of Fantasy Premier League lineups. As for the R’s, only defender Steven Caulker can boast respectable ownership – indicating that a classic 0-0 stalemate will be the result of choice for many.

The early kick-off takes us into four afternoon clashes, before the day is rounded off with Liverpool’s trip to Upton Park at tea-time. As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for lineup news on that one and all today’s matches.

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

    Shawcross needs at least a yellow for his blatant holding and poor sportsmanship.

    Caulker will be a goal, it was on target. YEEEESSS! Kept him since the start! Cheers lad!

    It will be given to Caulker, *Not an Owner*

  29. Sadio

    That's a goal, it was on target

  30. Obi Wan Elokobi

    I actually saw that one coming. Too obvious that I put Shawcross in for Caulker and he scores.
