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.

          When I said Walcott, I meant Everton in general of course.

    Mawson a good transfer for once. I guess that's a positive?

    1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…

      Nah poor value compared to Fernandez and naughty

    2. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      I took 30min to decide who to bring in between Mawson and Naughton. Got Mawson and got outscored by Naughton!

    Cant believe how swansea have become a decent team from garbage after I owned that Naughton and fab for most part of season

    1. FPLShaqiri
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      I had them both as well. Felt I had to get rid before they played Liverpool and Arsenal :’(

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Got rid of naughty 10 weeks before so no regrets but fab was before liverpool arsenal games. Each and everyone thought swansea were doomed. Who would have thought this will happen

      Even some of his own fans hated him before his hot streak. They should be kicking his boots he's a level above west ham

    Last week's heroes, turned zeroes this week.

    Ramsey, Wally, Deolufeu, Auba..
    Hazard & Salah expected to blank then?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Walcott was a hero last week?

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        oups 2 weeks back then.

      Wally wasn't a hero

      1. Zilla
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Haz and Mo to follow Mili path

    3. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Theo done feck all last GW

    4. UshFPL
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Nope. The above players not scoring will have no impact on the performance of Hazard and Salah

    2. Zilla
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Gomez is still a doubt so TAA might start. Quaner might feature too tbh

    3. UshFPL
      • 7 Years

  20. Feanor
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    I think this worth a mention in the Smooth section of the next Scoutcast:

    I played my bench boost and so I am getting Naughton and Cresswell’s 22 points off the bench.

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

      That's a good boost you crazy fool.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      You used your bench boost and it worked?

      1. maratus
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        I guess he is happy that it worked out, eventho it was stupid call to play it and he knows it aswell.

        1. Feanor
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago
