Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 38

The 2016/17 season comes to a close this afternoon, with all 10 Gameweek 38 matches getting underway at 3pm.

We’re spoilt for choice in terms of armband options for the final round of fixtures, with the top three players in this week’s Captain Poll – Alexis Sanchez, Harry Kane and Philippe Coutinho – are serving up their highest hauls of the season in Gameweek 37.

Kane’s four-goal blitz at the King Power takes him two ahead of his nearest challenger Romelu Lukaku for the Golden Boot, while Sanchez welcomes Everton on the back of three successive double-figure tallies.

Throw in champions Chelsea at home to relegated Sunderland (Eden Hazard and Diego Costa both start) and Man City’s trip to a decimated Watford defence and it’s fair to say that goals look very much on Sunday’s agenda.

So sit back and enjoy the frantic next couple of hours’ action – it won’t be until August 12 before domestic action comes back our way again.

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

    Changed JWP to first sub for Bailly . Might regret that. King out.

  4. Viper
    • 14 Years

    Koscielny has really screwed me over on my WC!

    1. Alnair
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      He will have cost me 40 points if Arsenal keep a cleansheet.

    2. Lizard Lips
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      I was going Monreal to Kompany as he looked lethal but then followed the crowd and went Kos. Killer!

  5. Bruno Bruno!!

  7. Sims
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Kane needs 3 more goals to equal Ronaldo's 38 game season record

    1. HazardAGuess
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Yes PLEASE.

  8. HashAttack
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Nice to get rid of my cs chances by half time ... last couple of gws have been nice, but stressful

  9. GoonerByron
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    No Spurs attackers killing me again.. Will have to rethink that next season 😐

  10. Mark-O
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    FFF's rival own Lanzini no doubt!

  11. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    What has the World No.1 done?! Those transfers out!!

    Facepalm.

    1. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      What did he do?

      1. Bouncebackability
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Alli and Sane out for a hit.

      2. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Sane and Alli out for Coutinho and Lallana

    2. Dokdok666
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Just looking at it. Incredibly bad transfer and for a -4?!

    3. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Still second half to go. Liverpool and Chelsea may do the business in the second half whereas City, Arsenal and Spurs calm down.

    4. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Lallana Coutinho in for Alli Sane

  12. itwaswritten
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Torres just scored 2 goals in 13 mins vs. Bilbao.

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      He's no Harry Kane

  13. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Swansea losing at home to WBA is a poor result IMO. Does not bode well for next season for the Swans

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Rubbish . It's a beach game.

    2. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      no idea what their goalie is like either ... not a surprise
      Been 31 goals in the end of season games over the last 6 years with West Brom ... so no cs expected

  14. Railwayman
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Well Sturridge TC went good, bye bye ranking 🙁

    1. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Some things have to be done when chasing , all good
      Cpt him too , lost Kane. Meant keeping KDB so still time

  15. Lizard Lips
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Who else started Gabbi? Praying he doesn't come on as Stephens first sub.

  16. Junior ⚽
    • 8 Years

    Anyone sell Alli over Hazard like me/
    Ruined my GW

    1. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Yep. Still time for it to equal out. Or get worse.

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      It's one goal...in one half...

    3. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Yep, literally every other permutation considered would have me ahead in ML.

  17. HazardAGuess

    Spotted on an advert. Guinness, but made with all-American hops.

    ... no thank you.

    1. Rote Teufel
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      As an American, I have to agree with you.

    2. Halftime
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Guinness is usually made with New Zealand hops, Ireland can't produce enough for demand so it's no less Irish.

    Garth Crooks apparently getting in a strop about the Terry parade.

    Bat-shite mental is Garth

    1. Bouncebackability
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      He is awful. The worst there is. Worse than Merson. At least Merson can be funny.

      1. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        I'm not sure he's very well, our Garth.

    2. Hect.OR 98th
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Why not complain? There were other ways of marking his career, rather than fixing an event in the game.

  19. Urchin
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Any fellow Kun(c)ers around?

    1. Garlana
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      I doubt there's many owners, let alone cappers

    2. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      yep 🙂

      1. Urchin
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        Woo Hoo....Now if only Lallana gets some points, both y transfers would have worked.......

  20. Bouncebackability
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Kosc suspended for the Cup final as well, what an idiot.

    1. Sims
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      harsh red

      1. Bouncebackability
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        He gave the ref the option. Stupid tackle.

  21. Eden ACCOUNT CLOSED
    • 8 Years

    Fingers crossed for top 10k. 51 at half time with 3/4 clean sheets intact.

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      What's your current rank, points ?

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 29 days ago

        15 pts behind 10k then

  22. Shifty

    Coutintroll standard blank?

    1. Tommyg
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      You got it. A called this two days ago and still transferred him in. #idiot

    2. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      Yeah, any time I've had him this season he's been a bit crap.

      Like captaining him for a 2 pointer when he got injured.

    3. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      people on here over rate coutinho so much, I fall for the hype and got him in. Barcelona FC must frequent this site also and they too have fallen for the oevr-rated Cout hype

  23. Tommyg
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Actually thinking about it spurs could be awful next season. Being at wembly ever team that goes there will feel like it's cup final and play out there skins.

    Umm we will see.

  24. Ógie

    No City game live in Aus, what's Kun looking like?

    1. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      2 goals already

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 29 days ago

      2 goals in 45 minutes; I'd say that's alright

  26. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Haha, Merson's Salami gaffe for Slimani

  27. Sims
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    Imagine if Kane hadn't missed all those games with two lengthy injureis

    Would have broken all premier league/fpl records

  28. Back on the horse
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 29 days ago

    According to FFFix Lanzini has had 7 yellow cards

  29. hogree
