Dugout Discussion – Sunday

After Watford’s win over United at Vicarage Road earlier this afternoon, Fantasy managers are treated to a couple of 2.15 pm encounters in the busiest Sunday of the season so far.

Mid-price pair Christian Benteke and Wilfried Bony go head-to-head at Selhurst Park as Palace look to build on last week’s win at ‘Boro.

Wilfried Zaha has another opportunity to strengthen his claim as a cheap midfield option after last week’s goal and assist on Teesside, though Marko Arnautovic could also throw his hat in the ring as the Potters prepare for a fine upcoming run of matches.

Southampton continue to seek a first league win under Claude Puel, though will be buoyed by the midweek Europa League win over Sparta Prague.

Visitors Swansea have managed just a single point in the last three Gameweeks, though the manner of their comeback against Chelsea last Sunday will fill the Welsh outfit full of confidence.

A poor performance from either side may well persuade owners to look elsewhere given their respective upcoming fixtures. Saints face West Ham, Leicester, City and Chelsea in the next five, whilst the Swans go up against City, Liverpool and Arsenal in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

    @TorresMagic

    That Arnie goal and Bony assist is better than a Palace CS, OR wise yeah?

    So much complaining on matchdays about the advice given on here during the week, but I'd like to give a shout out to Ziegler1988 for his mention of Kelly when I was asking for a cheap defender on a one week punt. I wouldn't have even thought about him otherwise, got me an assist. Cheers.

    So Stoke got destroyed but contained the main striker. Lets hope they can do that with Ibra

      Bony tried to play the ball into the 6 yard area, it didn't even go into the box. Zlatan tried to pick out Rashford who missed the header but ball deflected back to him. Goals were scored by the person Zlatan tried to pick out, not so with Bony.

    Ibra Lukaku Diamonde

    Which is better?

    A- Lamela + Ozil + Hazard + Diamonde > Sterling + Bolasie + Capoue + Aguero (-8)

    B- Lamela + Ozil + Hazard + Diamonde > Capoue + Firmino + Snodgrass + Aguero (-8)

    Just rewatched, Bony tries to slide the ball into the 6 yard box for the forward runner, takes a big deflection and doesn't go into the box. So correctly, no assist.

      This.

      People may be annoyed, myself included, about the Ibra assist but the rules are clear. Ibra played into the box to find Rashford and therefore he gets it. Simple as.

        Spot on! I don't like the rules and they've not helped me here but I totally understand the Zlatan assist and Bony non assist. Would be shocking for Bony to get an assist for that.

    Did Firmino to Noltio(c) -4 just before the deadline and Antonio to Townsend earlier in the week. Would have captained Ibra otherwise and had Capoue come in as first sub. Grand total of 20 points lost from 2 transfers. Not my finest week of fpl.
