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.

        Poor comment Gilbert old son.

        Last week people said about Lukaku, 'it's only Sunderland he was playing'

        He followed up with 12 points this week.

        What you gonna say? 'It was only Middlesbrough' ?

    Who's shipping Benteke? Four goals scored by Palace and not even an assist from him is disappointing but i would probably keep him if his fixtures better.
    Everton, West Ham, Leicester and Liverpool are just too much; sure he has Sunderland and West Ham is conceding a lot of goals, Liverpool as well, but Stoke's defense right now is much worse and he still didn't deliver.

      Possibly Ibra->Kun and Hazard->Firmino would be my preference.

        No I have Masuaku 😀 But Pieters already dropped so if his place is also at risk then I would be in some trouble

        It's either

        Hazard + Ozil + Ibra to Sanchez + 4.5 (Capoue 4th midd) + Aguero

        or

        Hazard + Benteke + Pieters/Masuaku to 4.5 (Capoue 4th midd) + Aguero + Holebas

        So basically I have to decide who is more important: Sanchez or Ibra
