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.

    Surely those of us with Antonio have to keep JUST ONE more week?

    Sunderland at home next. Final chance right?

    If I follow the masses and bring Theo in he will get hurt, Antonio will go up front and score a hat trick.

    Right????

      Don't think he'll score a hat trick, but I am keeping him at least one more GW.

      I'd agree if he wasn't playing wingback.

        It's quite bizarre. Besides Milner and maybe Valencia under Red nose, how many players show up on a Saturday morning and not know where they are playing that day AT ALL. Surely he must train at rb or cf during the week though.

          You'd think they'd work on their shape during the week - but saying that, you'd assume not based on their recent form!

                Yea I'm loving 352 atm. Prolly best to not lose more money on Antonio and Capoue maybe soon. Seem logical moves?

                  Deffo, just monitor price changes. I'm looking at Antonio & Rashford out for a hit - but I've also got an appalling defence and I want Allen.

      Capoue -> Allen for a -4 point hit and then bench Austin against City?? I know it seems crazy but Hull are conceding goals for fun atm and Allen seems to be at the centre of all of their attacks. Also means that I can jump on Allen's price rises early.

              I agree, but I haven't taken any hits yet, and as these are "long term transfers" it is kind of tempting. The alternative would be Valencia to Holebas this week, and then Stones to Koscielny next week.

          Blimey. Over 60 pts with Firmino left and still my minileague rival has passed me with over 80 and counting.
