Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Swansea City vs Leicester City

After goals from Pedro and Robbie Brady saw the spoils shared at Turf Moor, we make our way to the Liberty as Swansea seek to build momentum under Paul Clement.

Gylfi Sigurdsson is the focal point in the 4pm kick-off, with the playmaker looking to score for the fourth successive Gameweek, having netted against Liverpool, Southampton and Man City in each of his previous league outings.

With a pair of assists also accrued over the last five, the Icelandic international was the most transferred in player for Gameweek 25, with 229,000+ new owners snapping up his services.

Given that the hosts are currently one of just six sides set to play in both Gameweek 26 and 28, the likes of Fernando Llorente and Alfie Mawson could also play their way into our short-term plans.

Leicester, meanwhile, have struggled for form at either end of the pitch. With one goal in seven and a single clean sheet away from home all season, Claudio Ranieri’s men have done little to persuade us they are worthy of investment right now.

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

        1. Arn De Gothia
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

    Heaton
    Alonso Coleman Brunt
    Sanchez* Alli Siggy Phillips
    Ibra* Lukaku Defoe

    Grant Pieters De Roon Kingsley

    1FT, 1.9 ITB

    A.) Alexis > Hazard
    B.) Ibra > Costa

    1. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      If you must... B no, A

  5. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Can U help me guys? Alonso, Holebas, Evans, Friend, Holgate so want to get Coleman but how to get funds?

    a) Phillips > Morrison (is he nailed)
    b) Eriksen > Pedro / Antonio / Barkley
    c) Ibra > Costa

    Cheers lads!

    1. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      a-> Tom Carrol?

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        got Siggy so you think its good to double on Swans with Carrol?

        1. Arn De Gothia
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          If its for 5:th mid fodder yes

          1. StoichkovFPL
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            it isnt

            1. Arn De Gothia
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              oh 🙁 it would be cheep 2-3 points

              1. StoichkovFPL
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                so which option than?

                1. Arn De Gothia
                  • 13 Years
                  7 years, 2 months ago

                  Maybe a or c, but Ibras next is holding him for me

  6. DR0GBA
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Mane seems like a better option than Hazard, but when I owned him last season he scored a goal and got sent off in the same game! 🙁

    1. My Name Is Prince
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Haha!! 😀

    2. StoichkovFPL

  9. Uppercut Panda - A legend i…
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    1FT and a lot of money in the bank. Looking at Sanchez or Ibra to be transferred out. Bought Ibra at 11.3 , bought Sanchez at 11.8. So Sanchez it is. Who to replace him with - Mane or Hazard? I will be getting Sanchez back in after the next GW because I think he will outscore both Mane and Hazard for the remainder of the season.

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years

      Wait until FA Cup games are done to decide who to bring in

    Appreciate your thoughts!

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      A

    2. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Tough one
      Swansea have improved for sure
      I'd say probably get Costa as long as you have 11 for 28

      Will do Kane+Erikson - Costa+Mane
      If everything goes right in th FA cup
      Good decision? I have Ibra too, but got him for 11.2

    5. Netley Lucas
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Gotta wait mate, Millwall v Leicester City, might draw, replay midweek 26, Leicester v Liverpool is on Monday of week 26.

      Copy and paste lol

  20. John wick
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Who is nailed on for chelsea for long term

    A. Hazard
    B, costa
    C. Pedro

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      All apart from the Pedro/Willian rotation

      1. Epic Fail
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        You reckon Hazard and Costa are nailed on?

        1. DR0GBA
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Well it's not like Batshuayi is going to take over from Costa lol

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Hmmmm

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      All of them. Pedro might come off after 70 minutes plus for Willian

  21. Champione
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    What changes would you prioritize? 2 FT, 0.1 ITB

    Heaton
    Alonso Walker Coleman Daniels
    Eriksen Alli Stanislas De Roon
    Lukaku Defoe

    Pickford Sanchez Ibra Valencia

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Depends if you want some more Chelsea or Mane.

      1. Champione
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Mane first on my list but have to wait for possible Leicester-gate 😉 Costa doesn't seem very sharp atm imo

  22. TOBY1
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 2 months ago

    Who is more nailed Maguire or Mawson? Or both pretty safe?

    1. Jazz!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Both safe.

    2. We Will Klopp you
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Davies and Dawson could both potentially displace Maguire but Mawson seems more nailed considering the other options include the league 1 standard at best Amat.

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Mawson more nailed but think both OK

    4. TOBY1
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks all

  23. We Will Klopp you

      Snodgrass
      No pens and on the wing rather than central
      Not great (I own him)

      Not very smart for the guy who asked for dinner tips

      If only fpl managers would it would stop price rises and falls which forces early transfers

      but I have exact funds to get Coleman and Costa for Friend and Ibra. If I wait it won't happen

    FWIW
    Rank 383
    Have Rondon up front
    Not owned Costa this season!

      Wow, impressive rank.

      Who needs Costa when one has El Gladiador (Rondon)!

      Awesome rank, very well done.

    Any injury update on Lovren?

    What's the probability Stanislas scores 11+ points tomorrow?

  29. nkhoughton

    Alli and Eriksen to mane/firm and hazard

    Good or bad?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years

      I have both and i'm holding for next decent home games. No need wasting FTs for those two when you could upgrade elsewhere in squad

      1. nkhoughton
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Hazard home to Swansea captain material Liverpool have Leicester, I'd keep one but Deffo getting rid of 1

        1. DR0GBA
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          even if I had Hazard I would be worried about captaining...he's unpredictable when it comes to FPL points I think

    Which team of the six that are certain to have fixtures in gw 28 looks the most appealing in terms of points? Everton in attack and defense, Hulls defense, West Hams attack?

      Seeing Sunderland conceded 4 and West Ham keep scoring and play Bou, Everton and WH.

        And Siggy's fixture proof 😉

    2. Netley Lucas

      West Ham's milf looks okay, Kaku and HUL or SWA def imho.
