Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Saturday continues with a quartet of matches, featuring Arsenal and an array of budget and mid-price Fantasy talent.

The Gunners trip to a resolute Aston Villa will likely be the headline act on show: Arsene Wenger’s men will look to recover from the midweek Champions League defeat to Dortmund against Paul Lambert’s resurgent midlands outfit. Alongside that, we’ve an enthralling encounter at the Liberty Stadium as Swansea and Southampton prepare to press and weave patterns around the South Wales pitch.

Elsewhere, Alan Pardew will look to extend his stay of execution at Newcastle via a winnable home clash with Hull City, while Burnley go in search of their first three points back in the top flight as Gus Poyet’s erratic Sunderland unit pull up to Turf Moor.

We may well be discussing some very meagre Fantasy points tallies by 4.50, as we prepare to make our way to East London to check in on West Ham’s progress, as they host Brendan Rodgers’ title pretenders, Liverpool.

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

    2. Mull

      The full backs are going to get so many assists this year if they keep this up.

        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Worked nicely with his 2 goals last week.. confident enough he has a good chance of scoring today.

        1. Gimli son of Gloin
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Luckily I might add.. Swansea the better team before the red card.

    1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe

      9 years, 9 months ago

  13. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    60 mins. Get Chambers off please Wenger.

    1. Wouter
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Problem is that they don't have any defensive players on the bench, apart form Coquelin.

  14. RyanC
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Jermaine Beckford has become so irrelevant that SSN are now calling him Jason.

  15. Mull
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    PVA on for 3 bonus at the moment

    1. Nabs Kebabs

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

    I think Doos captained Rambo no? He was cocky about that decision too. RMT told me to put him vice too

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…

    • 10 Years

    pardew is absolut crap. w/ that squad cannot perform last

    1. Kerrazy
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      With that squad he had, could easily be in the top 8.

      1. Total Foot 5 - romario 11
