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.

    Gotta hand it to the SSN boys....how they manage to keep commentating on nothing at all is a real skill given to very few.

      didn't get that on the Scoutcast.
      Stoke haven't become a good side under Lambert. So teams should go for it against them -home or away.

    Stephens has been my 5th mid all season and benched him this week for Ayew. Good lord.

    Wait a sec people have stoke defenders? And scout picks too 😕

    53 goals conceded

    1. Yozzer
      • 6 Years

      Ridiculous really. One of these that gets mentioned on scout cast and people think he's a good option. It's stoke end of day

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

        I've watched them a few times this season. Worst defence I can remember since villa

        Brighton had 1 goal in 7 away games.

        Also, come GW31, are you 100% avoiding all Stoke players?

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

          Just defenders.

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

          With that defensive record yes

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

          Probably not avoiding Mark. I'm guessing I have no choice with them but I doubt id willingly bring one in in all honestly

          Brighton have looked a lot better of late to be fair.

      Cheers Captain Hindsight. Brighton blanked in 6/7 away games before today
