Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Southampton vs Man City

Saturday’s events end at St Mary’s with Manchester City the visitors to Southampton.

From a Fantasy perspective, it will be the Saints under scrutiny given that they offer us a pair of double Gameweeks to come.

Manolo Gabbiadini’s display will be the main focus with the Italian striker making his return from a groin problem after missing the last three Gameweek outings. Gabbiadini has scored four goals in his first three outings prior to the setback at Spurs in Gameweek 29.

The likes of Dusan Tadic and Nathan Redmond will also be assessed, while Maya Yoshida and Jack Stephens are also set to be key transfer targets in the coming weeks ahead of the first double-header in Gameweek 36.

For City, Sergio Aguero goes into this evening’s contest backed by 417,000 (9.4%) with the armband having scored in his last four Gameweek starts. John Stones misses out the visitors with Pep Guardiola confirming an injury pre-match.

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

          You have waited this long, not sure you will get any benefit playing it a week or two earlier if it is tailored specifically for 37 - better to wait until 36 so that you know the full form, injury etc status of all players before you rip up your team

    25 more minutes of sitting down Sterling. You can do it!

  16. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Navas injured

    Big red arrow incoming. At least it was a while since the last one...

  18. TorresMagic™

    Redmond is a great sprinter but not very good at football is he?

    1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 7 Years

      Very Usain Bolt like.

    Guardiola needs to leave PL. Not even he can save a team that is not Chelsea or Tottenham here. They're kinda the new Serie A and Chelsea is Juventus with Spurs being Roma.

    1. goriuanx

      I think hes doing good job,few good long term moves with Sane and Jesus.
      In 1-2 seasons they will be great.

      Bravo is crap at even passing the ball from the back.

    5. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years

      Man City were better under Pelegrini I swear

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

        City were great under Pellegrini, early days for Pep though.

        1. JÆKS ⭐
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Early days? Gameweek 33 this season. I think Pep is a very limited coach, his style just doesn't work as well in the PL as it did in Spain/Germany with a very dominating team like Barca/Bayern.

    6. NATSTER
      • 13 Years

      Stephens has done very well today.

      1. Pigsinblankets

        Looks good doesn't he, brought him in on a wc for the sotton doubles

      2. JÆKS ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Think I'm going Stephens + Yoshida on my WC!
