Saturday’s Dugout Discussion schedule looks like bringing us a feast of action today with nigh on all of the big sides facing off against “kind” opposition. First up, we’re served the palette cleansing amuse-bouche of Newcastle vs Everton…

Newcastle line-up as predicted with Sylvain Marveaux given the chance to impress once more, with Gabriel Obertan sidelined. There are two changes for the visitors, as Royston Drenthe and Phil Neville come in for Diniyar Bilyaletdinov and the suspended Marouanne Fellaini. Teams in full are…

Newcastle XI: Krul; Simpson, S.Taylor, Coloccini (c), R.Taylor; Marveaux, Cabaye, Guthrie, Gutierrez; Ba, Best.

Everton XI: Howard; Hibbert, Jagielka, Heitinga, Baines; Coleman, Neville, Rodwell, Drenthe; Osman; Saha.

A fair few high scores are expected today. Liverpool at home to Swansea. United facing Steve Bruce’s Sunderland. Chelsea away at Blackburn. Arsenal hosting West Brom. City closing out the day down at Loftus Road against QPR.

The only other remaining fixture of the day is Aston Villa vs Norwich and that too looks like it could join in the revelry. Cue nil-nils all round to defy expectations. Either way, the Dugout Discussion will be here through every kick of the ball.

        Utd home, nope. Villa home, nope - Bent and Gabby look quite the pair. Blackburn away, maybe. Fulham home, maybe. Newcatle and Everton away, nope.

        Not clear cut enough for me.

        Howard & Begovic - WOL or QPR, BLA, STO, BLA, NOR, SWA, AVL, WIG, BOL...till GW21.

      I'm not complaining, they were away to Liverpool and Krul, part of the best defence in the league this season, was at home with a decent chance of a clean sheet.

    You can tell Rooney is bored in the middle of the park, it doesn't look right. He was sitting behind Fletcher for much of the game. He might boss the game but isn't able to do it up front, where it matters. I presume Sir Alex knows what is needed in midfield, someone who can defend and pass and form a long-term partnership with Cleverley. Javi Martinez I'm looking at you.

    Nice Jones clean sheet, I think after the City hammering it's back to basics and there'll be a lot of clean sheets in the coming weeks. Can't see too many 5-0 hammerings in the near future though.

      2 week break.

      Allows the likes of Fletcher, Carrick, Anderson, Cleverley, Giggs and Rafael to recover for Swansea - A.

      Rooney will play off Hernandez or Welbeck, I'm sure of that.

        Oh I know, but a lot of people talking shite saying he belongs there and bosses the game. When in reality he does a similar job up front, while actually contributing in an attacking sense. Centre-mid needed in January.

    Good job i brought in RVP, as i've got Bos and he gets dropped as Chelsea finally get a clean sheet and i decided to put Ruddy instead of Vorm 😀

    Hopefully Silva starts later on.
