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

    Thoughts how to fit in Costa with this team, get Negredo and Kos out for Costa and Amat? Worth -4 hit?

          Kane or costa will be the death of me

            Need to lose Walcott so probably Firmino.

          Is: Kun + Deeney + Allen + Clyne--> Kane + Costa + De Roon + Cedric worth a -12?

          Only other way to afford Costa + Kane is remove Firmino/Siggy

          Thoughts?

            What's your full team. -12 seems drastic but kane and costa look great. Maybe Kane could wait a week if you can take a couple of rises

                Tough one. Can't really see a better way to get them in. Could you wait a week and just do aguero to Costa this week? Never know what injuries suspensions might come up

                  Guess if cash is tight you might need to just do it now

            Go for it, although just Aguero to Costa is not the end of the world either.

            I'm doing something similar, but more as a way of getting Alexis back in.
