The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

There are a pair of 4pm kick-offs for our Sunday afternoon assessment, as Everton host Manchester City, while Watford search for their first win against an out-of-sorts Southampton outfit.

The Toffees punished Saints’ new look defence last weekend, ranking joint-second for big chances (three) behind Stoke City (five). The Merseysiders placed fourth for home clean sheets (eight) in the previous campaign but face a tall task trying to pacify Man City’s effervescent attack, considering they put three past Chelsea’s experienced back line.

Saints boss Ronald Koeman will be looking for a big response from his players at Vicarage Road, having watched them ship five goals in their opening two league clashes. No side has conceded more goal attempts from set pieces (eight) than Southampton this season and it will be interesting to see if Quique Flores’ side can look to exploit that apparent weakness.

    Depay has lost the ball a staggering 35 times - more than any other player in the Premier League this season.

    The winger lost the ball on average once every three minutes, and beats Dimitri Payet and Robbie Brady to the unwanted record.

      Because Aguero didn't miss. Top saves from Howard.

      Are you comparing Giroud and Aguero? Seriously?

      Giroud is not a donkey. The stick he gets on here is ridiculous. He's a CF and not a striker and there's a huge difference between those two roles.
