Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Southampton vs Burnley

Sunday’s events conclude at St Mary’s as Southampton play host to Sean Dyche’s Burnley.

The Saints will be seeking a fourth consecutive clean sheet in the Premier League, a seventh in a row in all competitions.

Visitors Burnley will need to improve their attacking threat in order to threaten that record. The Clarets have scored just five goals from their seven matches, creating three big chances – the fewest in the Premier Leauge.

The Saints attack has disappointed with just seven goals scored in their seven matches. However, the statistics show that they have the potential to improve on that record in this one: Claude Puel’s side have produced a shot on goal every 4.8 minutes at St Mary’s – only Liverpool have been more threatening in home matches this season.

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

      This, possibly for this week only unless he fires!

    Choose one each:

    1. Evans -> 3.9 (got Amat)
    2. Snodgrass -> Allen (4th mid)

    A) Williams -> Vertonghen
    B) Valencia -> Mustafi

    1. Mr_Forest3

      2A

  6. Jasoooooooo
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Baines -> Holebas and Antonio -> Wally for a -4 point hit. Lock it in guys?

    1. umerlfc
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Bring in Wally
      And take a hit for Holebas only if the rest you defense is really poor

      1. umerlfc
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Rest of your*

      2. I Member

        He probably needs to downgrade Baines to afford Walcott.

        1. Jasoooooooo
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Yep, you're right

      3. Jasoooooooo
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        The only way I can afford Wally is if I do the Holebas transfer. Still worth it?

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Good moves but no need to rush.

      1. Jasoooooooo
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Okay cheers mate

  7. dhamphiir
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Who should I transfer out first?
    A. Morgan
    B. Lovren
    C. Deeney
    D. Snodgrass

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Don't think any of them really need to be sold. Liverpool and Hull have great fixtures, Leicester's are about to turn, and Deeney is in good form with Swansea and Hull up next.

    2. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I want to buy Lovren...xD

    Hi, appreciate some clarification on this. I bought antonio at 7.0, his price went up to 7.3 and my selling price is 7.1 (50% rule). The price has gone down to 7.2 and soon it will be 7.1. When that happens will his selling price remain 7.1 or drop back to 7.0?

    1. MTPockets
        7 years, 8 months ago

        7

        1. Red Spider
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Thanks

      • Sharpe Shuffle
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        When his price is 7.1, you will be able to sell him for only 7.0. It rounds down

        1. Red Spider
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Thanks

    2. Ravager

      Foster (Japu)
      Walker Mustafi Williams (Kelly Amat)
      Sanchez Firmino Antonio Capoue (Fletcher)
      Aguero Deeney Lukaku

      Suggestions?

      1. umerlfc
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Walcott bandwagon?

      2. I Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Antonio -> Walcott for sure.

        1. Ravager
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Think I can afford to wait til after CL? Was also thinking of cashing in on Capoue> Allen?

          1. I Member
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            I'm considering Capoue -> Allen as well.

            Yeah I think you can afford to wait. Already missed Walcott's rise last night.

            1. Ravager
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Yup. Thanks for replying!

    3. Tibbs
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      How's my knee looking, tad jerky

      Jaku / Capoue / Antonio >>>Grant/ Walcott/ 4.4m (4pt)

      Need to do them all to fund just Antonio>Walcott

      Yay or nay?

      1. I Member
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        It's a yes from me.

        1. Tibbs
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Thanks, reluctant to drop Sterling just yet but Antonio's time is up.

      2. Stokelona
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        As I said on the last thread not really much point taking a hit on jaku>grant when butland's due back in 3-4 weeks

        1. Stokelona
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          But Antonio>Walcott is obvs a big upgrade

    4. Forever In Our Shadow

      I have just noticed that currently Holebas has scored as much as Jonty whole team. :-O

    5. Sharpe Shuffle
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Holebas 15 points on the bench. Ouch

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        🙁

    6. TJ_777
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Is Allen actually playing well? I think I might do
      Capoue -> Allen
      For the price rises

      1. umerlfc
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Playing in the Number 10 role. Also in the form of his life

      2. England's Number 1
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        3 shots from inside the box, 2 goals. Centre of everything good in attack.

    7. BB-8
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Who would you rather have for next week only?

      Holebas (swa)
      Allen (hull)

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Holebas

      2. Jasoooooooo
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Allen, playing against Hull = goals

      3. umerlfc
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Allen

      4. Nicks93
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Allen

    8. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Austin not starting would have made Hazard my Captain and got Bolasie off bench...Hope he scores a brace today

    9. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      gw 11 liverpool and 16 man city the only 2 games im gonna be worried bout playing Holebas all the way upto january. Nice

    10. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Guys, I need some help here:
      Sanch/Firm/Wally/Sterling/Capoue
      Rashford/Kun/Kaku

      1.Capoue>Allen 3-5-2
      2.Rashford/Capoue>Lallana/Dio 3-5-2
      3.Sterling/Rashford>Costa/Allen 3-4-3

      Any other ideas ?
      Still need more thoughts what to do...
      Thanks!

      1. MTPockets
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Same as mine except Costa instead of Lukaku.
          Don't see need for change yet personally.

          1. Atimis
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Maybe I will make Capoue Allen switch, bench Rashford and see what will come after GW9

            1. MTPockets
                7 years, 8 months ago

                Fair enough but while Rashford's starting games prefer him for next few (exc gw9 - burnely/swansea).

                1. Atimis
                  • 7 Years
                  7 years, 8 months ago

                  Maybe tomorrow will give some answers about Rashford. Anyway Allen vs Hull is very tempting...

          Pick 1 to bench:

          Walker(bou)
          Williams(bur)
          Lovren(WBA)
          Amat(WAT)

          I'm benching amat atm... thoughts?

          1. Jasoooooooo
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Bench Amat

          2. Atimis
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            I would def bench Amat

        • TheCurseOfRaheem
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Well played Holebas owners. Seeing how this week has gone, must have been quite a feeling.

          1. MTPockets
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Yeah nice surprise - totally forgot about the game.

          2. Jasoooooooo
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            I'm wondering what has changed with Allen over the last couple of weeks? Has his role changed, is he getting plenty of shots on goal, or is this current run of form just fluky??

            1. Tansey
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Compared to his role at Liverpool, he's playing in a more advanced midfield role now, but still I can't see him keeping this going much longer, he never was one for the goals

          3. davies
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Play:

            A) Allen (hul)
            B) Rashford (che)

            My transfer depends on this decision.

            1. Jasoooooooo
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Allen just IMO, can see Stoke scoring a few against Hull

            2. I Member
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              A

            3. Atimis
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              I am thinking about Capoue>Allen and benching Rashford so I would say A

          4. I Member
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Pickford (Foster)
            Koscielny - Valencia - Holebas (B. Davies, Amat)
            Sanchez - Firmino - Sterling - Snodgrass (Capoue)
            Aguero - Lukaku - Deeney

            1 FT, 0.3 ITB.

            A) Save
            B) Sterling -> Walcott
            C) Capoue -> Allen (play AOA and bench Valencia)
            D) Valencia -> Clyne
            E) B. Davies -> Pieters

          5. Tansey

            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            What are the chances of Clyne playing tomorrow?
            That's the only way Holebas can treat me from my bench

            1. Bubz
