Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Manchester City vs Leicester City

Saturday hands us five more Gameweek 37 fixtures, with Man City welcoming Leicester to the Etihad in the lunchtime kick-off.

The most transferred in (217,000+) player for a pair of home clashes with the Foxes and West Brom, Gabriel Jesus retains his starting berth in an unchanged lineup as the fit-again Sergio Aguero warms the bench.

Meanwhile, Kevin De Bruyne’s 17-point haul at home to Palace last time out has also turned a few heads – the Belgian is the top target in midfield, with over 128,000 snapping up his services.

Jamie Vardy rolls up as the visitors’ form player. Since Craig Shakespeare took the helm, the Foxes frontman has racked up seven goals and five assists in ten outings – only 102,000 FPL managers have handed him the armband, with a home clash against Tottenham’s resilient rearguard also on his schedule next Thursday evening.

    How bizarre Gabbiadini isn't even in the bench! Wonder if he has a knock.

    Any high owned players at 3 outside Yoshi King Heaton?

    1. Knowledgeable meerkat
      • 8 Years

      Pickford

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      Gabbi

      1. F4L
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I'm so scared that he hauls....

    3. nkhoughton
      • 9 Years

      Siggy?

      1. F4L
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        cant think of many active players still owning him tbh

    4. SuperHam

      ANICHIBE!!!

      Tom Carroll?

  7. Fillet-o-fish
    • 7 Years

    thought KDB will be on pens

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

      Yaya was the one, pretty sickening for anyone that punted on yaya....if there is anyone out there that did.

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

        I think Andy was on the scoutcast...

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Jesus, Yaya, Kun are ahead of him on pens but he's on most set pieces. He'll have chances v West Brom, they don't do clean sheets

  8. Sandy Ravage
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    King vs Barnes

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Oh I forgot I have Barnes.

    2. Smoking Barrel
      • 8 Years

      Have both of them

  9. Jafooli
    • 12 Years

    Just realised I'm still gonna have Gabbi, JWP, Kone going into GW38. Vomits.

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

      No need to play them though.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Unfortunately there is 😛

    2. Moose™
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Hey Jaf! Fortunately, I ditched both of them for a hit. For Fab and Anichebe.

      Gabbi and JWP will play againt United imo.

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Hope so....

  10. Garlana

    Is the Silva goal a closed case now or are they still looking to see if sterling got a touch?

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Closed case

  11. JasonG123

    Any news on why Stephens was benched?

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

      Rotation probably.

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

      Long run of games.

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

    2. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years

    How many people expecting a century this week? Definitely me with 23-24 to go with 30 already

      1. nonprophet

      I was just hoping to win all my mini-leagues and improve rank.
      Whatever happens with the DGW is likely to happen to others as the pool of players is small, particularly those who have poor team value.

      I have high team value but for next chelsea game haz and costa will likely be benched.
      I wasn't expecting a century just winning the next few frames against my opponents is ok for me.

  16. F4L
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Stephens vs Holding, and I went Stephens meh

  17. barracuda
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    If memory serves well- Allesandro Diamanti from WHU scored similar goal from penalty like Mahrez but it did count on that occasion.

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

      Griezmann scored one just like that against Real this week.

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

        Diamanti v Liverpool in 2009 for the record 😉 Cheers Cloudsky!

      1. JustPark
        • 8 Years

        Right. Moving on.

    Reckon Puel knows he has broken bench boost?

  24. nkhoughton
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    It's starting feel like it could be a wasted bb this time

    1. F4L
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      not if you have a good TV 😎

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        my "good TV" meant I got Kosc and Gabbiadini over Monreal and Anichebe.

  25. F4L
    • 9 Years

    So hows everyones week going?

    1. the snazzy viking

  26. Jafooli

    Sanchez benched vs Stoke will finish this season right off....

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      That will not happen

    2. F4L
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      if that happens i'll rejoice

      1. JustPark
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        +1

        -owner here.

  27. Syd.
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Just seen that Southampton line up

    Puel hit the bottle by the looks of things

    1. boc610
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      you do realise that saints have 4 games in two weeks? and that he has a squad of players that need games and that he doesnt give two hoots about a DGW or bench boost chips

    2. Pariße
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I think Puel missed the deadline and is trying to make it up by ruining everyone else's team with rotation.

  28. Sims
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    get the feeling most didn't even want Gabbi in their sides but his price made the rest of their teams look good and then most just got him because others were. sheep mentality at its best

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Best being a sheep over a snake.

  29. Begbie.
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Don't understand how Jesus gets the winning goal when Silva gave City a lead that they never lost. I know the argument is that without Jesus' goal they would've drawn 1-1 but the exact same logic applies to Silva, no?

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A lead they never lost lol.

      1. Begbie.
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry? They went 1-0, 2-0 then 2-1.

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      It's the rules.

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

      It's stupid, but that's the rules.
