Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Southampton

The third day of Gameweek 34 action brings us to Stamford Bridge as Chelsea entertain Southampton at 7.45pm.

Both Eden Hazard and Diego Costa return to the Blues’ first XI after appearing off the bench in the weekend FA Cup win over Spurs.

The Belgian’s goal and assist in last Saturday’s 4-2 triumph continued the form that has produced points in five of his last six league outings.

Costa attempts to address a run of two goals in ten appearances – indeed, he was the second most transferred out player for Gameweek 34, with over 136,000 sending the Spain international packing.

Pedro’s owners are left frustrated as the Spaniard’s run of nine successive Gameweek starts comes to an end this evening. Willian also warms the bench despite his Wembley double, as Cesc Fabregas comes in for the hosts instead.

Southampton, meanwhile, afford us some early scouting ahead of their back-to-back Double Gameweeks 36 and 37.

Up against a defence without a clean sheet in ten Gameweeks, Manolo Gabbiadini has the chance to catch the eye as a third forward option, while attacking midfielders Dusan Tadic and James Ward-Prowse could also play their way into our wildcard plans.

Nathan Redmond’s 6% owners are given cause for concern, however, as the winger drops to the bench for Sofiane Boufal.

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

      Stephens and Holgate are nice, cheap buys at 4.1.

        tnx, so nothing from dgw

    £10.6m to spend on a midfielder for GW35 only

    Can't be - Sanchez, Alli, Zaha or King.

    Who do you go for?

    1. Pique boo
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Hazard?

    2. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Mahrez or Sane

    3. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      KDB?

    4. LakhaneeFC
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Coutinho or Eriksen?

      Prefer Coutinho against Watford

    5. Viper
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'd probably play form and go Hazard. You'll want him at his current price before WC too

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        That's a fair point - he's a must on my WC

        1. Viper
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          He'll rise 0.1 or. 2

          Could be enough to scupper WC plans

        Now you're talking!

        I did think about him but rotation is a huge concern!

        1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Minutes he gets against City will make it easier to predict

        2. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Or Maybe even Martial depending on who doesn't play against City.

    7. SuperMane Returns
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Hazard for a punt?

      Erekson if you not got 3 spurs.

        Actually you have Son don't you...scrap that. Coutino then

    9. Boomerang V
      • 7 Years

      1 Hazard
      2 Ozil
      3 Eriksen

    10. Twisted Saltergater

    Rashford to Costa? Seems kinda early since I did Ibra to Rashford just last week

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Woah relax, Rashford probly starts v Swansea at home next, could be golden, Costa goes away to Everton who are class at home...

  5. LakhaneeFC
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    He's very injury prone - don't see him playing 2 games a week and remain injury-free

    Might have a clearer picture after the United game

    1. LakhaneeFC
      • 7 Years

    Reports tonight that Jose has said DDG can leave in the summer...http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/manchester-united-transfer-news-donnarumma-12942857

      Saw something about that this morning - will be gutted if he does, one of the best in the world.

      Donnarumma supposed to be very good too but I won't pretend to know much about him

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Sounds to me like he's always pined for Spain though. He certainly doesn't seem to particularly love his club...or at least not publicly, and that he doesn't mean he dislikes his club either...

    3. FPLHaggis
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Kasper Schmeichel inbound

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Definitely be a more than popular move.

    4. Gangster Panda

      Joe Hart is available?

  9. MarkoSD

    cech vs foster?

    likely cs:
    sout sto SUN EVE vs HUL boro STO

    1. Pique boo

      Foster

  10. ryacoo

    What are people's thoughts on Eriksen vs Alli on the WC? Assuming that the majority will be going Kane + 1 Spurs mid?

    1. FPLHaggis
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Alli due to ownership

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Eriksen Koz he's involved in everything and cheaper

  11. andy85wsm

    Only just noticed this:

    GW36 - West Ham v Spurs is 8pm Friday

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      In fact GW37 is the same!

      Everton v Watford 19:45
      West Brom v Chelsea 20:00

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Could catch a few out on the WC!

      friday afternoon down the boozer after work and onto the match at the olympic

  12. Beautiful Game

    Best two defs to have 36 onwards within 9m total?

    1. Beautiful Game

      Already have stephens

    2. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Holgate + Yoshida?

  13. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Last moves before WC next week. What to do with this lot?

    6.4itb, 1ft, WC, BB available

    Jakupovic
    Alonso / Valencia / Stephens
    Firmino / Alli / Sigurdsson / Zaha
    Kane / Lukaku / Negredo

    Heaton / Davies / Maguire / T.Carroll

    1. Harper (No more Penandes)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Sigurdsson or Negredo to somebody as a one week punt. There's so many, take your pick.

      1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah it's a tough one. I'm looking at Negredo to Afobe and Caroll to King and play AOA

        1. Harper (No more Penandes)
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Negredo to Afobe is the exact move I'm looking at. Either that or Siggy to Arnie

        2. jam
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          I wouldn't bother with a hit for one week

  14. Gareth nose
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Can anyone who watched the game tell me how Gabbiadini did?

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not great. Simple enough assist and smashed two into side netting when he should have had more awareness of who else was in the box.

      1. Gareth nose
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Sounds like he's hungry for a goal then so not necessarily that bad, what was his movement like?

        1. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Thought he looked alright - sharp, always in position and a real threat ... just not sure re 4 matches in 2 weeks

    2. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I thought he did ok...in fact the whole team did well until half time.

      Very hard to judge a players potential on the basis of playing Chelsea but he did as well as most others I've seen against them...if not a tad better.

  15. Torres76
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Best time to use AOA?

    35- AOA
    36 - Wildcard
    37 - Bench boost
    38 - AOA

    1. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      38

    2. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The tiniest of the DGWs (ie, this week, if you had prepped for it).

      Or two defenders injured/ suspended in a given GW and you don't want to lose either.

      Or never.

      Scrap the stupid thing. Worst new rule ever.

  16. HashAttack
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Got no BB so my bench is going to end up Ake (3.8), Holgate (4.1), T.Carroll (4.1) ... .don't call me cheap!

    1. Harper (No more Penandes)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Same here, although I wouldn't go Aké because he takes up a vital Chelsea spot.

      1. HashAttack
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Can't afford a Chelsea defender and squeezing every penny - will have Haz and Costa

        Think the back 4 will end up being Cech/Bailley/Vert/Kompany

        1. Harper (No more Penandes)
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Strong defence, who you TC'ing?

          1. HashAttack
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Usually it ends up being Sanchez but City have the best fixtures (Kun) or Costa

          2. HashAttack
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            see you went for BB this week ... good choice

  17. FPL Maldini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    For me it comes down to which Chelsea or Spurs defender do I get....

    A) Vertonghen

    B) Alonso

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B by a country mile

  18. AYLD28
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you rather have as your 3 strikers going into the doubles

    1. Kane / Vardy / Gabbi
    2. Kane / Jesus / Gabbi

    Choice 1 means I have to go Stevens + Clichy at the back
    Choice 2 means I can go Yoshida + Kompany

    1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      2 with Giroud for 36 and then Jesus for 37

  19. liiusions
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    One week punt for a striker that isn't Kane Benteke or Kun? Vardy is tempting

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Afobe

    2. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Great Captain choice
      I might Go for Him

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Afobe v Sunderland or Jesus v Middlesbrough (if gets time if bench tomorrow and looks good)

    4. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Defoe

  20. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Have 2 free transfers. Thinking both

    A Lukaku to Costa
    B Jakupovic to De Gea

    Yes or No?

  21. 32chickens
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    luka-is he all that ?
    on wc tempted by costa at 10.3
    I bought luka in at 9.6 ,can now sell at 10,list price 10.5
    Would you
    A) keep the value and suffer EVE v CHE for luka's fixtures afterwards.
    B)Cash in and trust costa's renewed interest in playing football lasts until season finish

    And before you ask Hazard is safely in the house

    1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Make profit of the Money you earned
      Sell Lukaku and forget about him for the rest of the season

      1. 32chickens
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        appreciated

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

      I think there is no room left for Lukaku

      Costa might be a good differential since I don't think many will get him in

      1. 32chickens
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        yes eve looked miserable at weekend ,but playing away

        yes maybe

        thankyou

  22. JÆKS ⭐
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Different crowd so would like to hear your opinions:

    DDG Pickford
    Alonso Monreal Clichy Stephens Holgate
    Sanchez Hazard Alli xxx King
    Kane Gabbiadini xxx

    A) Zaha + Jesus
    B) Sane + Rashford

    If B, I could go with Yoshida instead of Stephens, if that is worth it?

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      How about Capoue and Costa?

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Think Jesus/Rashford can match Costa. Zaha and Sane will outscore Capoue without a doubt

        1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          That's if they Get a Start!
          Costa plays WBA and WAT
          Think Again!!

          1. JÆKS ⭐
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Ibra is out for the season so Rashford will def start most of the games imo. If Jesus is fit, he'll also start. Don't think I'd want Costa at all just because he now had 1 good performance, but cheers for the suggestion though!

            1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              I mean, Will they play both Games in DGW?

              1. JÆKS ⭐
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 1 month ago

                Will Costa play both games in the DGW if the title is safe?

                1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
                  • 8 Years
                  7 years, 1 month ago

                  Fair Point
                  But Aguero and Rooney are way more capable than Michy
                  So it's obvious that Costa has lesser chance of Rotation

    3. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Only because Jesus is an unknown quantity at the moment

      1. JÆKS ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Could bench him for 35, so would only need him for 36 37 and 38 though

    I think Jamie Rednapp does not know how to wear a suit

    Waistcoat is too small for him and besides why would you wear a waistcoat to a gig that you are going to be sitting the whole time
    His lapel is also too big like it would be more suited to a best mans suit for a weeding

    He would do well to learn a thing or two from Graeme Souness about been a midfielder sorry i meant smart dresser

      Lapel trend went bigger two years ago. Get with the program 🙂

      It's difficult for footballers to wear a suit well while sitting down as there thighs are so big.

      I think he looks amazing. Souness has a sharpness about him too though, I agree.

      Don't forget all those suits are custom fitted and made and 1000 £ ++

        I think Jamie brought his off Arry
        His tailor would want to be shot if he made him that suit for a TV gig he is stupid enough without having a goofy suit to top it off

        His sleeves look short to me and his watch strap does not match the color of his shoes which is criminal
        I bet his belt does not match either what a plonker

          Slightly shorter suit sleeves (with inside the suit wrist - shirt protectors, to allow maximum shirt double cuffage and no wear and tear on th cuff of your loverly shirt) is very de reguier, I'll have you know.

      Waistcoat is genius if you are going to be sitting. Hides the belly.

      A fitted three piece suit with a scoop waistcoat is the absolute business, i have a couple myself.

      I think Jamie has very good style fwiw.

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Agreed. Ogie is just a big culchie 😉

      I found this the most interesting post on the page. For the active EPL coaches I think Poch seems to have the most variety. Sometimes he's all business in a suit, other matches, he's got his track pants on and then sometimes he's rocking what I would call Southern Florida casual golf shirts.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Gianluca Vialli rocked on the fashion front. And Mourinho in his early days.
        Agree on Poch.

        I like Guardiola's look.

        He really pulls off the suit with a jumper.

        That's quite hard to do without looking like your still at school or someone's grandda

  25. @fpl_phenom

    Iv got stupidly got Blind in my team... Jones or Smalling will slot straight back in ahead of him wont they? And surely back by GW37....

    1. Park the bus
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not stupid, 8 points and counting ! They may do, but remember Blind can play left back too or in midfield. Still a decent option imo

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers feeling a bit better about it now, Jose really putting pressure on jones n smalling to return soon with his comments

    2. Sess!

      Why is that stupid? Jones/smalling Won't be back for could weeks least.

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

    Cause I have triple spurs and Kane captain, I expect Spurs to struggle tomorrow. Anyone else got this feeling?

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe not score many

    2. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yep... regretted it the moment the bell went. CPL have gone from a pants defence to maybe one of the strongest in a few short weeks.

      1. HashAttack
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        doesn't feel like that - (Hennessey owner )

        Was worried about this one and there might be some precautions for the Arsenal match

    3. Harper (No more Penandes)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Think it'll be a 1-0

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed. Not the goal fests we've become accustomed to...not this week anyway.

    4. b✪mber
      • 8 Years

      Dunno what you're on about. Had triple Chelsea today and I had a blast - expecting more of the same tomorrow.

  27. Park the bus
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    On wildcard. Poor team value hence Capoue 5th sub (anyone better for same price??)

    Cech Pickford
    Alonso Vertonghen Clichy Stephens Holgate
    Sanchez Alli Sane King Capoue
    Costa Kane Gabbiadini

    Thoughts?

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      How much is Albrighton?
      Could downgrade Alonso to free up some funds if you need more money, Alonso>Daniels

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 8 Years

        4.9

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Great team ... just get a cheap DGW mid instead of Capoue

      1. Park the bus
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        He is a heap DGW mid haha

    3. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Watford have nasty fixtures - T Davies (4.4) or T.Carroll (4.1) ... both getting the playing time

    4. jam
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      If I was tight for cash I'm not sure I'd have Alonso, they're pretty leaky these days. I know why you want him though!
      Don't mind Capoue, there aren't many cheap options really.
      Could go Afobe for Costa and Hazard for Capoue?

    Before it becomes messy as the DGW teams play...

    Attacking stats per player for the GW so far....and for the second time in three weeks a very high number of touches in the box for the top player...http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/4671/

    We can't ignore that.

    1. Twisted Saltergater

      Watching the game tonight, I noticed two things:

      1. Southampton are very "nice". They allow you to play.

      2. They're really small at the back. I can see a few headed goals being scored against them.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        They are actually...too nice. It's why i'm not fond of players like JWP...

      2. Hibbo

        • 11 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Being nice sucks.

        I'm back playing three or four times a week now. The sharpness is back, and so is the intensity.

        If you have no intensity go home. Our indoor and 6 or 7 a side games are good quality but lightening fast with big intensity. Then we go for a wash and slag the piss out of each other like mates.

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          😆 thanks for the insight, Hibs!

          Not saying that Saints don't have any intensity.. they're just a bit like an under 10's team. Needs a spine. (Admittedly, they do have injuries)

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          "go for a wash"

          yeah, I can see why the intensity is back allright.

              I believe that is why PVA has always been so popular at the clubs he has joined.
