Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Watford vs Crystal Palace

After yet another goal from Mohamed Salah in Liverpool’s draw at The Hawthorns, Saturday comes to an early conclusion as Watford entertain Crystal Palace at 3pm.

The Eagles’ duo Wilfried Zaha and Luka Milivojevic were among the top seven most bought players for a reduced Gameweek 35 that saw over 154,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Free Hit chips played.

More than 183,000 managers acquired Zaha, who has served up three goals and two assists in the last five Gameweeks, with 21 points in his previous two outings.

Meanwhile, dead-ball specialist Milivojevic has 38 points over the last four, supplementing three goals and a pair of assists with nine bonus in that run.

They now collide with a Hornets defence that’s conceded 30 goals in front of their own fans – no side have allowed more.

The hosts have failed to catch the eye in recent weeks, with Javi Gracia turning to a 4-4-2 today in an attempt to solve a run of three goals in the last five Gameweeks.

Roberto Pereyra’s form has been the one crumb of comfort – the former Juventus man has netted two of those strikes and is looking to score for the third successive match at Vicarage Road today.

    My FH has been a disaster

      After a game and a half?

        Needed Zaha to deliver after the Pool flops. Hennessy on bench, now I need a Jesus subdued performance (one goal only) and I left Coleman on bench instead of Pickford

    Should I go Mahrez -> Sterling?

    And keep faith in Willian, Alonso, Vardy

    Ref has lost the plot.

    I am baffled. Why Mou doesn't play Bailly anymore..

    1. Lilac Breasted Roller
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Bailly not even in the line-up?

    2. Zilla

    Remember when Richarlison was an essential season keeper?

        Capoue scored in DGW37 last season.

  9. Pierce34

    6 years, 2 months ago

    Lloris is the squad but not starting? What's up with that?

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

      Cup keeper

      1. Pierce34
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Fair enough, just found it strange given that it's the strongest possible Spurs team otherwise.

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

      He's the sub GK.

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

      He's been pretty terrible recently. Was hoping for a couple of his trademark cock ups today.

    4. Collie01

    Bailly entirely out of contention then. He wasn't even saved for today

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Wonder if I should do:
      A) Bailly > Smalling
      B) Bailly > Otamendi/Kompany
      C) Bailly > Vertonghen

    1. Volley127
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      yes

    2. Lilac Breasted Roller
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 2 months ago

      Yes. You need to trigger WC with a transfer however, so don't wait until the last minute before deadline
