There’s two tasty fixtures on the bill today, as the Dugout Discussion opens for the second installment of Gameweek two. We start at the Britannia Stadium as Stoke City host Arsenal, and the team news is in…

Stoke XI: Begovic, Wilkinson, Huth, Shawcross, Wilson, Pennant, Cameron, Whelan, Kightly, Walters, Crouch.

Arsenal XI: Mannone, Jenkinson, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Diaby, Arteta, Podolski, Cazorla, Gervinho, Giroud.

Having been cleared to play, new signing Geoff Cameron makes his Potters debut in midfield. The visitors are without Wojciech Szczesnydue to a rib injury, so Vito Mannone is between the sticks. There’s a first league start for Olivier Giroud, with Theo Walcott the player making way.

Following that game we move to Anfield, where bottom of the league Liverpool welcome the visit of the Premier League champions Manchester City.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is the place to follow all the action as it unfolds, and it can be accessed right here.

    Don't even deserve points, but I'll take it.

    79' Lovely stuff from Skrtel as he makes a fantastic clearance in the centre of his own box. The defender has had a superb day.

    80' GOAL! Liverpool 2-2 Manchester City! Oh no, calamity from Skrtel. He checks back on the left and tries to find Reina with a pass back, only for the ball to roll straight into the path of Tevez. He shows good composure to round Reina and convert, but what a horrible mistake.

    Nice one Yahoo!!

    This is why teams like Man city win the league, not necessarily ability, the fear they put into players like skrtel, forcing these errors. That was pathetic. No threat whatsoever from City, in fact how have they got a draw from this??
