Dugout Discussion – Man United Vs Tottenham

It’s here. The new Premier League season is upon us and begins within the fitting confines of the “theatre of dreams”.

Old Trafford hosts the season opener, as Louis van Gaal’s freshly sculpted Manchester Untied lineup host Tottenham.

It’s a lip-smacking, sun drenched prospect, played on a billiard table of a surface, with an array of Fantasy talent on show.

Immediately we hope to assess the prospects of both Wayne Rooney and Harry Kane – two protagonists who will surely play some part in our seasons, if not our Gameweek 1 lineups.

Following that, we’ve a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs and a tea-time date with the champions.

It’s great to be back.

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

    Damien has been positionally excellent. Big difference to what we're used to in a right back.

    >Rules as written - no assist, there was no pass or shot

    >Rules as intended - assist, Rooney forced the OG

    >Actual decision - assist, people would have kicked off for days about it if it hadn't been given, so FPL were always going to take the easy way out

    >In future - I'd bet that the rule will be clarified slightly

    Can we all move on now?

      Yeah but then even the word “pass” or “shot” is debateable. It might have been an absolutely horrific shot 😛

      Surely the word should just be “touch”

      You can't account for every eventuality, assist was right.

      It would have been had a United player scored.

    Unless Rooney sharpens up, he's not going to be scoring many goals this season.
