The Dugout Discussion – Crystal Palace vs Liverpool

Saturday’s events conclude at Selhurst Park where Crystal Palace host Jurgen Klopp’s buoyant Liverpool side.

Goals certainly look on the agenda – Palace are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, while Klopp’s defence are without a shut-out on the road in ten away trips.

Christian Benteke will carry the Eagles’ threat against his former club, while Liverpool’s likely benefactors are far more difficult to pin down.

Philippe Coutinho heads into the encounter having earned more than 174,000 transfers in as the most popular target ahead of Gameweek 10.

However, James Milner won’t be featuring on the scoresheet: he misses out having missed training this week with a virus. Alberto Moreno comes in at left-back for the visitors – a potential weak point that will no doubt be targeted by Alan Pardew’s men.

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

        Hey lads. Hope you all are doing well this week so far.

        Looking at using my 2FT for this exact swap.

        Walcott+Deeney > Coutinho+Austin

        Walcott injury is minor and should recover but with Giroud/Ramsey and a bit tougher run I'm happy to cash in and double up on Liverpool mids.

        Deeney 3 blanks in a roow. Eaten too many pies and fixture run is rollercoaster like. Austin great form and fixtures but hasnt played this week yet.

        Can do the swap tonight before price changes for free.

        Cameron, Holebas, Smith // Valencia, Amat

        (i) Cameron hyperextended his knee and is currently a doubt for MNF
        (ii) Holebas AND Smith are on 4 yellows
        (iii) Amat may have dropped out of the starting XI

            Same here. I'm disappointed too. went deeney captain when i had aguero and sanchez. The asist being taken away from deeney makes it even worst.

        Does this make any sense?

        Walcott+Allen+Lukaku -> Hazard+Chadli+Austin

        Yay or Nay?

        Juan Mata's game by numbers vs. Burnley:

        100% pass accuracy
        100% take-ons
        100% tackles won
        50 passes
        7 chances created
        6 shots

        ... could have been a brilliant punt, but..
