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.

    Please could somebody sanity-check my plan?

    I'm 0.1 off affording my proposed wildcard time. I'm considering finding it by transferring Foster to Marshall, so my keepers are Jaku/Marshall, and playing a Hull keeper every week.

    My thinking is that WBA's fixtures are taking a turn for the worse just as Hull's are taking a turn for the better (for ages), and I won't have to worry about Jaku getting dropped.

    The upgrade this allows is Valencia to Walker.

    Worth it?

    Current front 8:
    KDB Antonio Capoute Zaha Payet
    Lukaku Ibra Benteke

    Three ways I can get Kun back in:

    A) Lukaku -> Kun (FT)
    B) KDB + Benteke -> Sterling + Kun (-4)
    C) Payet + Benteke + Stones -> Sterling + Kun + Holebas (-8)

    Tough to get rid of KDB right now... but Payet also on fire with decent fixtures coming up.

    Thoughts?
