The Dugout Discussion – West Ham United vs Arsenal

3 December 2016 3023 comments

A dramatic Saturday comes to its conclusion as West Ham United take on Arsenal at the London Stadium.

All eyes are on the Gunners’ Alexis Sanchez as he looks for a fourth double-figure haul on the road.

Having scored twice against Bournemouth last week, the Chilean headed into Gameweek 14 just one point off the top of the Fantasy Premier League standings.

An injury to Philippe Coutinho has prompted new interest in Theo Walcott – the wide man earned more transfers in than any player last week after notching his sixth of the season against Eddie Howe’s side.

The search for a new midfielder means we’ll also be monitoring the display of Dimitri Payet, with the Hammers’ schedule taking a turn for the better from Gameweek 16 onwards.

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

      If you aren't so obsessed with Kane , yes you can.
      Basically you have to prioritize Sanchez or Kane .
      Downgrade Aguero to someone cheaper like Carroll/Austin/Bent eke to upgrade Yaya or Walcott to Sanchez.

      Or get Kane, Siggy.

      Eriksen - still can't decide. Any obvious reason why he was averaging 2.5 per game over the 8 games prior to his 10 and 18 point hauls? Can't be fixtures as he had the likes of Boro, WHU, Leicester and Bmouth. Is he getting further forward?
