Dugout Discussion – Watford vs Arsenal

Saturday’s action comes to a conclusion at Vicarage Road as Watford entertain Arsenal in the 5.30pm kick-off.

We have a chance to scout budget midfielder Richarlison as the fixtures fall in the Hornets’ favour from Gameweek 10.

The Brazilian has bagged three goals and two assists already, though has yet to find the net in front of his own supporters.

For the Gunners, there’s no Alexis Sanchez or Aaron Ramsey, while Mesut Ozil only warms the bench.

Alex Iwobi – at just 5.1 – earns a third start in four Gameweeks in light of his strike against Brighton last time out.

Meanwhile, Alexandre Lacazette, the fourth top captain choice for this round of fixtures, looks to break his away drought, with all four of the Frenchman’s goals arriving at the Emirates.

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

    Very interesting day's results - Palace in particular suddenly look like a good source of cut price players - Zaha, RLC, Dann, PVA all look viable.

    Aguero to return next week, maybe Morata too, Hazard & Alonso flopped, Sterling, Silva, Sané all set for more price rises... Richarlison confirms he is the real deal plus runs risk of 2 game retro ban for diving... same for Kaku for backheeling Lovern's face... Bavies, Ramsey, Bailly don't even make the bench, Harry Kane fails again at home (who'd have predicted 6 points from SWA, BUR, BOU home fixtures!) Tammy Abraham making a mockery of his 5.5 price tag. Liverpool keep another home CS...

    Think it'll pay to pause, take a deep breath & hold onto all FT's until as late as possible, who the hell knows what'll happen next.

        Personally I think it would be very harsh if he did get banned, for exactly that reason. Very difficult to prove intent as he's not looking at the player. But you never know what the panel would decide, they may want to make an example
