The Dugout Discussion – Saturday

Saturday moves on to present us with a healthy batch of five afternoon kick-offs, with the top two owned Fantasy Premier League assets in action.

Both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sergio Aguero are both backed by 18% of the captaincy share in Gameweek 10 – the pair are in dire need of a reversal of fortunes.

Ibrahimovic takes on Burnley at Old Trafford without a goal in five Gameweeks, having shed almost a million owners since his last strike.

Aguero’s struggles aren’t as prolonged but, nonetheless, there are real concerns on the value he now offers. He travels to an unforgiving Hawthorns having notched just two points over his last three Gameweeks.

Elsewhere, Spurs host champions Leicester City at White Hart Lane and Middlesbrough take on Bournemouth at the Riverside.

Finally, there is a good deal of Fantasy interest focused on Vicarage Road as Watford welcome a struggling Hull City. Much is expected of Troy Deeney, Etienne Capoue and Jose Holebas in that clash.

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

      I'm thinking the same but just to replace Antonio. I think I might just be looking at the low price tag too much though.

        Ever since I joined this site, one thing that still amazes me is keeper rotation. I just stick to one cheapish keeper all season from a side that can has a history of moderate CSs and that's that. Mid way through the season I might change on a WC if needs be.
