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

    Bavies & Rambo no shows>> Jones and Carroll off the bench.

    Blind luck, but will gladly take the points.

        This 100%. A dive is going down with no contact in my mind or throwing yourself about. This is gamesmanship - "going down easily" with a tiny bit of contact. Difference IMO.

      doubt there is enough to conclusively say it was a clear dive versus "going down a bit easy," though the media will go for the click bait articles and work the narrative for a few days surely.

    Really worried as a Kolasinac owner. Saw little of the action today and Bellerin looked much further forward and much more of a threat. Kolasinac is my most expensive defender but he looks like he is on borrowed time in my team, although I will give him the Everton game as I want to roll my FT.

          Why not? I thought it counts as assist when a saved shot is then put away

        Captaining him today probably had the same effect too.

          already got Ota, Sterling & Jesus. Might have a look at Antonio later in for Mahrez if he doesnt get anything this week.

              yea jsut a bit concerned about Ota. Ties up a city spot and if they aint getting CS not much point keeping. He definetly has goal threat though
