The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

After United and Everton got Sunday’s events underway earlier, we now have three more matches to focus on before another international break is thrust upon us. First up, the league’s last two unbeaten teams go head-to-head at the Bridge, as Chelsea take on Arsenal in one of a couple of 2.05pm kick-offs.

All eyes will be on Cesc Fabregas as he plays host to his former club but from a Fantasy perspective, we’ll be looking for Diego Costa to continue a record that has seen him score in every home appearance so far. Danny Welbeck will also be on many a radar as the Gunners prepare for an outstanding run of fixtures from Gameweek 8 onwards.

Elsewhere, Mauricio Pochettino faces a tough task to derail the Southampton bandwagon as his former club roll up to the Lane. Spurs have failed to score in each of their last two home matches and face the top-flight’s meanest backline – the likes of Ryan Bertrand, Dusan Tadic and Graziano Pelle all carry strong form into this one and have the upcoming fixtures to flourish further.

Later in the day, The Hammers welcome QPR to Upton Park in the final match of the Gameweek. Big Sam’s side have impressed in the final third in recent weeks, with Stewart Downing’s new central role and Diafra Sakho’s clinical finishing making them the standout options for the hosts right now.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Please rank these in order of importance. I have 2 FT's and will do 2 of these this week.

    Balo to Welbeck
    Siggy to Tadic
    Duff to Baines

    A little scared of the second one.

        I know it's a major gamble, and is quite frankly a little silly. But I think its the right move. I have to have 3 Southampton players for the next 5.

          FFS' obsession with Tadic is beyond ridiculous. Sure he has the stats but he's not really getting the points so why would you get rid of a proven point scorer and lost out on the value you have in him as well?

    On a wildcard and was considering that Sturridge could potentially be a better option than Kun for the next 3 GW's? qpr,HUL,new compared to TOT,whu,MUN... also given that Aguero is yet to score more than once in a game and Sturridge has 36 goals in his last 50 games. My plan would be to keep cash ITB to get Aguero back in afterwards, Sturridge just looks like a really good captaincy option for those games. Yes there is the argument that Liverpool are playing poorly, but they beat Spurs 3-0 the last time Sturridge started and looked a far better team.

    Get Sturridge or stick with Aguero?
