Dugout Discussion – Bournemouth vs Man City

3,035 Comments
Share

Gameweek 3 gets underway at the Vitality Stadium as Bournemouth entertain Manchester City in the 12.30pm kick-off.

The visitors have made a somewhat underwhelming start to the new season, netting just three times in the first couple of matches.

As a result, Pep Guardiola has made a number of alterations, with the decision to drop Sergio Aguero to the bench a major surprise.

With the battle for our three-man frontlines intensifying, the Argentine’s absence could trigger big sales over the upcoming international break.

Team-mates Gabriel Jesus and Kevin De Bruyne were sold by 218,000 and 117,00 FPL managers respectively last week after serving up back-to-back blanks. But a return to a lone striker system now looks set to force a reassessment of City’s attack.

For the Cherries, Eddie Howe unleashes Josh King alongside Jermain Defoe for the first time as they go in search of their first league goal of the season.

The hosts’ Ryan Fraser also drops out as Howe opts for a wing-back system, with Charlie Daniels and Adam Smith on the flanks.

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

        If I have to choose between Alli/Eriksen, I'll go with Eriksen.

        Sanchez is a monster, but I don't have any funds ITB.

    Fernandinho: KDB what are you doing?!?! You just played a stunning through ball to Mendy! I'll hold down the CDM position, get in the box and see if you can snag a goal!

    KDB: No thanks. I'd rather get myself a solid two-pointer and watch Richard from Brighton's team fall apart to some casual who triple captained Daniels.

    Fernandinho: Ummm....
