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.

    Next week would you rather have Di Maria vs WHM or Tadic vs QPR?

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Close, tadic just doesn't seem good fantasy wise. So dimaria probably

    2. johnbarnes

      ADM

  11. Lawrø
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    That actually looks like an OG, Sterling's initial shot looks like it was going wide...

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Non owner? Lol

      1. Lawrø
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        No I own him 😀

        1. Les Bleus
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Oh. Well it's definitely his goal 😉

          1. Lawrø
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Wait for more replays, it's hard to see, but there's one angle that shows it quite well

    2. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

  12. Les Bleus
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Liverpool have now scored in 17 consecutive away games in the PL.

    The last time they failed to score away was against Arsenal last November

  13. Something Clever
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Will that be an assist for Balotelli?

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

      Yes

    2. Andy1
      • 14 Years

    Who should gtfo first? Bego, Colo or Chester?

    1. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      how about the one who is not playing

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        He's bench fodder for now but see what you mean. Any idea why he's not been playing since his red card?

    2. Ross Geller
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      The one who sits on the bench. Then Colo, then Bego.

    3. Lloyd Xmas
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Chester

    4. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years

    1. johnbarnes
      • 9 Years

  17. Werkself
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Balotelli deserves the assist if only for staying out of Sterling's way.

  18. OPTA FPL
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    dont think It was a Balo assist.

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      FPL say lol

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        but it wasnt, according to the rule

        1. Lloyd Xmas
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Rebounds
          If a shot on goal is blocked by an opposition player, is saved by a goalkeeper or hits the woodwork, and a goal is scored from the rebound, then an assist is awarded.

      2. El_Matador
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        You look familiar.

    2. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Watch the goal, read the rules, think again.

              • 12 Years

              Not going out of my way, it gets annoying to see it multiple times every time a game is on.

    4. Herman Toothrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      I'd imagine it has to be a word first in order for it to be a phrase.

  22. Cheggers v2

    I am a Sako and Sterling owner who cannot believe his luck at the minute

  23. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Reckon I have a great Midfield combo in Sterling, Ramsey, Mata and Eriksen. At least 2 of those players will score in any given gameweek.

  24. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Thoughts on this 4 pointer?

    Sanchez, Bony & Ade -> Sterling, Costa & Welbeck/Pelle

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Yes that looks good

    2. johnbarnes
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      this should have been done on GW1, Pelle rather than Welbeck. Do it asap

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah welbeck would be for the long term but pelle will get a lot of chances next gw

    3. ralfb
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Get welbeck

    4. Royal5
      • 12 Years
