Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Huddersfield Town vs Bournemouth

A busy slate of Sunday fixtures gets underway at the John Smith’s Stadium as Huddersfield Town entertain Bournemouth at 12pm.

Owned by 10.3% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers, the Cherries’ Callum Wilson is the most popular player on show for this one.

Over 101,000 snapped up the forward for Gameweek 27 after a run of four goals and two assists in seven.

Wilson has history against the Terriers, too, firing a hat-trick to claim his season-high haul of 17 points back in Gameweek 12.

With a goal or assist in four of the last five Gameweeks, Jordon Ibe – at just 4.9 – is also in fine form for the visitors, who arrive on the back of a seven-match unbeaten run that includes a 3-0 win at Chelsea in their previous road trip.

The hosts, on the other hand, have done little to convince of their Fantasy potential in recent outings, firing a single goal in the last six fixtures.

Yet a good result today could bring David Wagner’s men onto our radars ahead of a very favourable schedule that pits them against teams in the bottom half of the table in six of the next seven Gameweeks (wba SWA CRY new bha WAT).

    Pogba and Lingard will probably run riot today.

    Wilson to Niasse a good transfer with 31 in mind and next 4 fixtures not bad ?

    Walcott + Wilson IN a couple weeks ago doesn't seem to be working out. Would you hold or get rid again?
    Have 2fts.

    1. SW6
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Hold

    2. HurriKane

      kneejerk them out for izquierdo and mounie 😉

    Hope Salah gets injured in the warmup up so I can have Aguero's VC points.

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

      A 1st minute injury would be more fun

    The search for a solid cheap third striker continues, will there be one this season ?

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      No but plenty in midfield

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

        Been playing 3-5-2 lately just because I was tired of looking for a third striker that performs somewhat consistent

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Not consistently. Some people spend the whole season chasing third striker points 😆

    3. greghammer95

      6 years, 2 months ago

      You posted this on the last page. Wilson is a decent third striker still.

      Look at the form table, funnily enough, third best striker for form.

      Also look at value(form)...

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

        yeah and it ended last and wanted some discussion on it

        1. greghammer95
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 2 months ago

          Or just, don't repost it. People can use more than one page....

      J Ayew is very good value imo

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

        looking at him actually, good fixtures and from what I've seen a workhorse

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

          Just not getting any points last few.weeks

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

    And to see Pritchard is more expensive than Mooy in FPL!
    Disgusted!

    1. La Roja

      Seriously?

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

        Yep, not sure how bad though, he did jog off

    Guys, will we know about the blanks and also the doubles before next game week? Thinking of wild carding now itself but would need this info

    1. Bill Haverchuck
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      You'll know about the blanks for GW31 and be able to have a bit of a better guess at how the doubles will pan out.

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

      Aye, after cup games.

  11. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    First goal of the decade for Jones today.

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Nah he got one the other week

    2. SW6
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      He's genuinely more likely to get an own goal than score

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      No thanks. No -2 pts again... Assist + cs would be nice 12 pts though.

  12. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Bottomed
    This is my team; when is best time to use free hit in your idea?

    Speroni adrian
    Jones VVD martina moreno chilwell
    Salah walcott shaqiri b.silva a.king
    Kane kun vardy

    Thinking of getting siggy instead of b.silva. is this a right move in your idea?
    Any advice or help ? Thanks

    1. BON
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      38

      1. Emiliano Sala
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        What do you mean?

  13. SW6
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Would be great if the current bottom 3 stayed as is till the end.

  14. greghammer95
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    If Pogba is injured in the warmup then so far today is a massive failure 😀 Can see the united CS wipeout early on too.

    Begovic 0, Wilson 2, Pogba 0 (3 from TC).

    Jones, Salah (C) and VVD to go.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      TCarroll's 3 is probably as much as Pogba would have got anyway, so not much harm done there.

      1. greghammer95
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        You're not wrong, but at least let me watch the match with the hope he might get some points...

  15. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Thanks for the -1 Francis

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

      Let me guess Pickford in goal too?

    2. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      4.3 did you expect Jones run of points?

  16. Rik Waller
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Gonna be some jammy Mili points for some if Pogba is out.

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

      Argh forgot about that

    2. greghammer95
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Someone out there is getting Aguero VC points too.

  17. TLF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Benching Shaqiri instead of Son, Wilson or Walcott worked out well this week then lol, this game can be a killer

    1. BON
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      If you're gonna bench him at home to Brighton why evem have him in your team? That's your own stupidity to blame.

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Benching Shaq over Son was a bit weird no?

  18. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    So is Pogba out or...

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

      Soon find out.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Just logged on. Surely the line ups are out.

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

          Limped off in the warm up.

          1. Rupert The Horse
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 2 months ago

            Oh really. A lot of people’s captain. Hope they don’t have Aguero vice.

  19. StoichkovFPL

    So that is that for Hudd as whipping boys 😉

    1. TLF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      It does make the FA cup match against Man U a little more interesting now

      1. StoichkovFPL
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Uhmmmm ......... no 🙂

    2. Bill Haverchuck
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      They're still terrible. Anyone can score goals again Bournemouth when they decide not to turn up

      1. Bill Haverchuck
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        *against

  20. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Hey guys.
    Stupid horse question here.
    If I’ve put something on eBay and I’ve put a buy it now option and somebody meets it, why do I have to wait for the timer to tick down? Surely it can just be paid as soon as it’s met.

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      You must be able to accept it now or have you got multiples of it listed?

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Just one. I mean it’s been met by two people so I thought that would automatically end the auction.

    2. Bill Haverchuck
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Can someone bid higher than the buy it now price? I've no idea really

  21. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    I need a united CS. DDG, Jones and Smalling owner.

    1. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Opposite here 🙂

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Blimey. Sorry but I hope that doesn’t happen.

  22. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years

    Thank god Jones,Lingard and Martial are starting. It's gonna be weird going for Utd...

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

    A win for Newcastle would take them from relegation zone to 13th. So close down there

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

      West Brom are starting to look lonely though

  24. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Mounie's 2nd goal should have been A SCook own goal .... lucky Cook owners

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

    All my players yesterday got a minimum of 6pts.
    Should have known today gonna be the reverse. Wilson, Pogba already failing! More so, since Maguire is 1st on bench with -1pt

    1. Sylas
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      No one cares!

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

    Pitch side reportes saying it will be 50-50 if Pogba starts...but apparently not obviously injured...whatever that means.

    1. Bill Haverchuck
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Insightful reporting

  27. Gobigorgohome
    • 12 Years

    Pogba injury?

  28. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Pogba starts

  29. Somalion
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 2 months ago

    Pogba plays

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

    Pogba damn.
