Dugout Discussion – Watford vs Stoke

Sunday treats Fantasy managers to four matches as Watford and Stoke get matters underway in the midday kick-off at Vicarage Road.

We have high hopes for the Hornets wing-backs Jose Holebas and Daryl Janmaat, with the duo earning a spot in our Scout Picks and Spot the Differential articles respectively for Gameweek 13.

Etienne Capoue, meanwhile, has the chance to show just why he was last week’s second most transferred in player, with the Frenchman netting for the fifth time this term in a 2-1 win over Leicester.

Stoke roll up without the suspended Joe Allen after the Welshman collected a fifth caution of the campaign last time out.

Those holding the likes of Marko Arnautovic and Xherdan Shaqiri will be hoping for an upturn in form ahead of next week’s home clash with Burnley. With the fixtures set to turn against the Potters from Gameweek 15 onwards, many will be already planning an escape route.

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

    So this guy on here asked yesterday how many games a player is banned for if he picks up his 5th yellow and then gets a second yellow later in the same game. I guess we are about to find out with Britos.

    Should be 2 games in theory but I think I recall someone only getting 1 game a few seasons ago.

      One game for the red and it will revert to 4 yellows?

      He got a red so stays on 4 yellows. If he was banned for 5 yellows, that extra yellow he got today would've just been a new yellow in the count to 10, but it was a yellow after all, so there's no way this is a 2 game ban.

      Wait one week and transfer him out for Fer. About as cheap, and has more consistent goal threat despite Swans being much worse team, and they're gonna have so great fixtures that there must be goals there somewhere.
