The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

What a difference a week makes. Just seven days ago to the minute, we were right here totting up points from Sergio Aguero’s four-goal haul against Spurs. Today many Fantasy managers are left gazing on the Argentine’s two-point total at West Ham and regretting transfers and their armband decision. It’s now left to Saturday’s remaining fixtures to sweeten such a bitter pill.

Raheem Sterling will carry the can for some as Liverpool host a Hull City side nursing a lengthy injury list. Meanwhile, down on the south coast, Ronald Koeman’s revolutionsied Saints look to continue their climb up the table as they take on Stoke – Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic the headline acts on show.

Arsenal’s trip to Sunderland and West Brom’s Hawthorns meet with Crystal Palace will see some Fantasy managers relying on output from Danny Welbeck and Saido Berahino. Finally, in today’s tea-time kick-off, it may well fall to Gylfi Sigurdsson to save many a Gameweek total as the Swans host Leicester City.

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

        This got bottomed earlier, but seems a propos:

        This is the first GW this season where I saved a FT.

        The two moves I resisted were:

        Falcao and Rodwell --> Berahino and Sanchez, and

        Falcao and Rodwell --> Lukaku and Mane

        All I'm saying is, Lukaku and Berahino are definitely going to score. 🙁

            Considering we have been crap this season and Sanchez was dropped for a few games I think its safe to say that he is proving his worth. Considering ADM cost almost double and Hazard about 10mil more I dont think there is that much difference in terms of quality.

            In fantasy terms though I think its hard for people to look past Theo when he is fit, we will see him get 60 against Burnley next week which could be a good differential punt for anyone who fancied it. 1.3/1.4 saving on Sanchez means investment in Sanchez will be limited

              Well quite frankly 7 goals in 11 doesn't mean a thing, as only those in the FPL really matter.....so thats 4 in 8. Yes one to watch but i'm not yet convinced.

                Well quite frankly it does. A 50% goal ratio for a midfielder would be close to 20 goals if extrapolated over the season. Especially considering we have been rubbish and he has been eased in his return has been more than adequate. I would be happy in saying he will get 200pts plus this season which would at least match the likes of Hazard last season.
