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.

    Lovren better be careful with head collisions. His head has a habit of going elsewhere.

              maybe not now, but over the season, I'd definitely pick Ramsey over ADM. I think FPL is a game of coverage, hedging your bets. If you have a Man U forward, don't double up with a midfielder from the same team, unless they're an unstoppable team (cf. Chelsea).

                Sterling really? Agree with your point on coverage most of the time, but value form and Di Maria has better form and fixtures atm

    Quite tempted to wildcard for the following transfers. Would leave me with a midfield of Rambo, Fab, Di Maria, Sterling, Siggy. Thoughts?

    Begovic -> Forster
    Krul -> 4m
    Balinese -> Chambers
    Rio -> Duff
    Chester -> Moore
    Hazard -> Fab
    Mata -> Di Maria
    Marney -> Sterling
    Naismith -> 4.4m
