Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – West Ham vs Man City

We have to face it – after the momentous points bonanza of Gameweek 8, this weekend may well be a bit of a comedown.

Six Saturday fixtures will have the task of setting us up for another round of three-figure hauls and, ironically, it all begins with last weekend’s leading man on show as Man City crash Upton Park to take on West Ham.

Sergio Aguero and City will surely face an uncomfortable ride in East London, with the resurgent Hammers giddy at the prospect of facing the champions whilst sitting in fourth place in the table. Fantasy managers will, nonetheless, be anticipating and expecting the Aguero show to rumble on through the home defence: the Argentine sports the armband for many and we’ll look for at least one goal from him amongst the huff and puff of today’s early kick-off.

Following that, we’ve just a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, before Swansea host Leicester in a gentle-looking evening clash to see us out.

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

    City not looking like title challengers right now. But they could be 2-1 in minutes with the quality in the side

    Amalfi again

    Dzeko plays so bad today.

      This

    Dzeko has been poor this half.

  5. Gooner97

    Come on Sakho!!

    When was the last time City attacked? They badly need HT.

    I think Dzeko should be taken off at half time. He's a liability more than anything!

    1. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years

      Milner will come

    2. Says

      A bit of a Dzek of all trades

    Feck's sake. I can't watch this with Sakho on my bench.

    Milner has been the crux of this team. Swap him for Dzeko at HT Pel!

    Aguero misses sitter.

      You can't be serious? It hit him in the chest... 😆

    Ouch for people who took -8 point hits to bring in Aguero 😐

      Long term for most I suspect. I for one didn't expect much for him today.

  12. MJ6987

    Aguero close!

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 10 Years

      Was it a bad miss?

  13. Fantasy Gold

    Lol @ all the Aguero owners blaming Dzeko for everything 🙂

    1. DRY PEANUT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      It's the whole team, them blaming Dzeko is very silly.

      Where has Yaya, Silva and Navas been with the assists

    Third start in a week. Aguero starting to feel it in his hammies. Off at half-time methinks

    As an aguero owners prior to the big bandwagon this week I have to laugh at comments on here regaling new owners. It's very often the case that big scores do not follow in the next gameweek. Stoke will no doubt beat Southampton 1-0 too

    Great result so far!

  22. The Finnisher

    I've seen it all...Aguero was only on the ground for about 2 seconds that time.

  23. Journeyguy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Ahhhh two Aguero chances in a matter of seconds..

    Why isnt Valencia inside the box on corners and set pieces? Seem very odd...

  27. Pinturicchio
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    One half of not owning Aguero down...

  28. Owd Big 'Ed

    Had a feeling this would happen. West Ham are a good side and not easy to break down like Spurs.

    Should have captained Pelle and not let this site cloud my judgment as I know more than most.

    1. Gazza2000

      Is the game over yet ?

      Lol

    3. The Finnisher
      • 12 Years

      If you know more than most you would have said this prior to the game and not captained him.

      1. Owd Big 'Ed
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I know that's why I'm kicking myself.

        Check my post history too fella. I did.

        1. The Finnisher

          So you're all talk?

          Sucked in.

    I'll cry if I don't grab any points from Sakho and Aguero at the end of the match
