Dugout Discussion – Saturday

A quartet of afternoon kick-offs keep the Gameweek rolling, with plenty of interest in a range of mid-price Fantasy assets.

Swansea City’s Jordan Ayew is among the most signed players in action, having claimed another 139,000 owners ahead of his home meeting with Burnley. The Ghanian has four goals in his last seven Gameweeks.

Theo Walcott has also proved a popular acquisition this week, with 128,000 managers snapping him up having watched him produce two goals and an assist in his previous two home matches on Merseyside. He takes on Crystal Palace at Goodison Park today.

Pascal Gross also features among the top ten most signed ahead of today’s deadline, with 126,000 swooping for the Brighton playmaker. He returned 13 points in the 3-1 win over West Ham last time out.

The German will face a rejuvenated Stoke City side who have kept two clean sheets in their three matches under new manager Paul Lambert. Xherdan Shaqiri is the Potters’ own big asset on show – he goes into today’s contest owned by 498,000+ managers.

West Ham host Watford in the final three o’clock encounter. All eyes will be on Gerard Deulofeu in this one; following his 13 points against Chelsea on Monday; the winger has been signed by 192,000, second only to Arsenal pair Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ahead of today’s deadline.

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

    Can someone please list the teams that have a double gameweek but no blanks please?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      They don’t exist.

    2. STEP rOVERS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Teams which are out of the cup games will have games in 31

    3. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      How can this be possible? Think about it.

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Imagine if it was though. Would be gold dust.

        Let me know if anyone finds one.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Will do ๐Ÿ˜‰

      2. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Is entirely possible. Arsenal will have a double in GW34 followed by no blank in GW35 if Leicester win their FA cup R5 tie.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 4 months ago

          Having a double means you have to have blanked somewhere ๐Ÿ˜€

          Oh boy.

          1. Forza Papac
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 4 months ago

            Yeah, they'll blank in 31, then buy Arsenal assets for 34 and you'll get a double and no blanks from them

            1. Les Bleus
              • 12 Years
              6 years, 4 months ago

              His comment was about the teams that have doubles but no blanks.

            2. Wild Rover
              • 13 Years
              6 years, 4 months ago

              So it’s not possible then

    4. โ™คTeddyBearโ™ค

      LOOOOL

    5. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

    6. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      GW39 in New York will feature Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man Utd.

    7. JustPark
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      How can they have double without blank? I'm lost here.

    8. Back on the horse
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Unfortunate this was top of the page...

  2. Dr Dream
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    I hate these spells in football. So far today we've had nearly three hours of footy across the board with just one goal....Watford v Chelsea seems like a long time ago...

    Hopefully things pick up today.

    1. Patch
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Don't worry Wally goal and Ayew assist.

      CS hopefully for Ogbana.

      Nuff Said?

    2. Norman Conquest
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      i will be happy with 0 goals today

  3. Monkey Hanger
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    1 CS last week. 19 CS this week.

    1. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I'd much rather the former.

  4. SuperDan
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Is Davies and Trippier nailed?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Nope

    2. Mysterion
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Unfortunately, nope

      1. SuperDan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Dang. both huh?

    3. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Ha ha, good one.

    4. Unfathomable Ruination
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on Champions League games.

    5. Boydinho
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      No, but looks like the are prefered.

      1. SuperDan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        thanks

  5. Kryten

    Shakiri chaaance

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Should have done better there.

  6. Knowledgeable meerkat
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Met bellerin last week. Asked him who was the most dangerous player he’s come up against this season

    He said Richarlison

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      lol

    2. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      This is only because he was CROSSING the road but somehow ended up walking the wrong direction into your path.

    3. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Richarlison will get a big move in the summer. Still has a way to go, his finishing is woeful.

      1. Kryten
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah would have him at Liverpool not sure on his value 30m in today's money

    4. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      He'd give most RBs the run around but he can't do much after he gets by them.

  7. ralfb
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    not watching games, hows my captain theo doing?

  8. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    How are my fellow Kane cappers feeling?
    I'm just happy he got some returns!

    1. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn’t be happy if you watched the game to be honest.

    2. Yozzer
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Knowing salah and kun are yet to play I'd probably avoid any more football this week and log in in 2 weeks ๐Ÿ˜‰

    3. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      Fair enough. Could look good if salah and kun blank though which isn't out of the question. rather something than nothing any day

  9. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    I hope there are plenty of CS this week just so we can watch the "defense is dead" crew of last week become the "is defense the new attack?" crew this week

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      *defence

      1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

  13. janowsc
    • 9 Years

  14. A Team Of James McCleans
    • 8 Years

  15. JJO
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 4 months ago

    Chances of Alonso and Jones starting?
    I need to know if I should cheer for CSs in this games or not

    1. Dannyb
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago

      1. JJO

      Agreed.
