Dugout Discussion – Watford vs Man United

Sunday treats us to four matches, kicking off with a noon encounter at Vicarage Road between Watford and Man United.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic carries the armband hopes of many Fantasy managers heading into this one – the Swede narrowly topped this week’s Captain Poll off the back of four goals in as many matches.

Etienne Capoue has the chance to prove himself worthy of a fourth midfielder slot today. Having scored against Southampton, Chelsea and West Ham, the Frenchman is set for a favourable run of matches that could bring in the points.

Similarly, Odion Ighalo, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas are also under the spotlight after all three got amongst the goals in last week’s comeback win over the Hammers.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Fernandinho is box to box midfielder.

    Pogba is barber to barber midfielder.

        80% conversion rate now is it? He won't keep that up unless he's one of the greatest midfielders of all time.

        Still, Capoue owners have their fun this week. Fair play to those that backed him.

          80% from shots on target, mind. 4/7 when all shots are counted, which is "only" 57% conversion rate. Not that it was sustainable either.

      The thing about Capoue is... even people who are getting him as '4th mids', are planning to rotate him with Snodgrass, Chadli etc... Given how unpredictable he is, the only way you can reap his rewards is by having a 5th mid like Fletcher, and playing him every damn week...

        I agree.

        We will never create enough chances as long as Rooney continues to play No.10.

        It's so frustrating to watch.

        Getting Capoues points off the bench is the only upside to watching this rubbish.
