Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Middlesbrough

17 September 2016 5055 comments

Saturday’s events come to a close at Goodison Park with Ronald Koeman’s upwardly mobile Everton side hosting Middlesbrough.

Frankly, this match is all about Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian exploded a dramatic 11-minute hat-trick just six days ago at Sunderland and heads into the tea-time encounter backed by almost 250,000 new owners, with 6% handing him the captaincy.

Koeman’s side will be bidding for a fourth straight victory and a third consecutive clean sheet.

Middlesbrough’s task looks tough, then, having suffered a home reverse in Gameweek 4 at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Alvaro Negredo goes into the contest desperate for a goal having blanked in his last three. Having soared early on as a Fantasy Premier League transfer target, he’s been hemorrhaging owners for the past three Gameweeks, losing 164,000 heading into Friday’s deadline.

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

          Yeah it makes little sense. Although they could claim a very literal interpretation:

          "For the avoidance of doubt, points awarded in-game are subject to change up until one hour after the final whistle of the last match of any given day"

          They didn't touch the points they had already awarded, just awarded new ones!

            Nope, yellow and red flags affect thresholds for both price rises and falls. Which is also why Kun is unlikely to rise this week as flag won't be removed until Weds night and when it is will be reset to zero anyway (and in the case of red flags price protected).
