Dugout Discussion – Sunday – Part One

Sunday’s four matches get underway with a lunchtime double-header as champions Chelsea host Everton, while West Brom take on Stoke City at The Hawthorns.

Some Fantasy managers will be torn by the Stamford Bridge meeting. The Blues defence are well backed via Fantasy Premier League investment in David Luiz (25.9% ownership) and, of course, Marcos Alonso (18.2% ownership). T

he Spaniard heads into today’s contest off the back of his devastating two goals at Wembley against Spurs, having picked up over 245,000 new owners ahead of Gameweek 3.

However, Everton’s Wayne Rooney has also soared in popularity following back-to-back goals. He claims a 20.4% ownership ahead of the Chelsea clash and is the most popular captain pick on show in the early kick-offs: 93,000 have trusted him with the armband.

Meanwhile, at The Hawthorns, there is no question of the preferred outcome from a Fantasy perspective.

West Bromwich Albion will be seeking a third successive clean sheet against Stoke and boast the Gameweek’s second most popular transfer target in their line-up.

The towering Ahmed Hegazi has picked up over 504,000 new owners ahead of today’s clash and already ranks fourth for transfers in ahead of Gameweek 4 before taking to the pitch.

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

      And I sold Bellerin because I thought he was in danger of being dropped.

    That Hegazi mistake sums up my start of the season

    Actually, Numb, that may have just torpedoed my GW. 🙂

        I've got Foster too. Man, I hate doubling up. I have two Toon too. 🙁

    I think that makes Crouch the oldest Stoke player over 6ft 6 to score in the Premier League.

      what a stat

  7. Pirlø's Pen

    Alonso essential

  8. Siggy in the Middle

    Why the hell would Wenger bench Laca and Kola for such an important game? I don't own either of them so I'm not criticising it because of FPL but it just doesn't make any sense.

    Sanchez starts ahead of lacazette!

    Oh dear, how that changes things!

  10. Numb

    Was Hegazi at fault?

    1. Az

  23. Andy_Social
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Kol on the bench! Please stay there - Tammy will step out for 8 unexpected points!

  24. Royal5

    How on earth can Wenger bench Kola over Monreal?

    1. Siggy in the Middle
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      And he's also starting Welbeck ahead of his £50m club record signing. Mad.

      Arsenal Fan TV will have a field day if they lose.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      I don't think it's Monreal that's the problem. Who knows, maybe Wenger didn't want the guy he wanted to play at LCB bombing up the wing whilst the Liverpool wingers take advantage.

      Of course, Wenger should just play his players in their optimal position - we all know this.

  25. The Wise Owl
    • 8 Years

    Wenger still thinks it's pre season haha

  26. Rainer
    • 7 Years

    Je suits Crouchy

  27. fedolefan

    Phillips owners group hug. We got the WBA clean sheet point.

    1. Fred54
      • 9 Years

      Phillips is so 4 GWS of last season.

      1. Pierce34
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        He was so good for these 4 GWs though!

  28. Bubz

    Really hope Liverpool destroy Arsenal today

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years

      Mane ftw

    2. makaveli123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Still on Salah and Firmino?

    3. faver
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Sanchez to run riots to make this game even harder now.

    4. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      Just posted that Bubz, Wenger deserves a real good old fashioned thrashing - Basil Fawlty fashion.

    5. Rock n Grohl
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      After those decisions I hope so too. Idiotic geriatric has been

    Please stay on that bench Kola, will take Dunk's 6 instead.
