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.

      None of them are. Rafael will be rotated all season, Jenkinson will be permanantly dropped once Sagnas back and Gibbs will probably play the most minutes but will still be rotated at times

        At this moment in time arsenal have no other right back or left back. Those 2 are nailed on as much as any defender. Rafael obviously not since hes only played 1 of 2 games.

          At this moment in time yes but there seemed to be no time restraints on this question. For the season none are nailed on but Gibbs is most likely to play regularly

      Swansea, Everton, Wigan & WBA have OK fixtures so:

      SWA: Rangel, Williams, Taylor, Chico
      EVE: Distin, Hibbert
      WIG: Figueroa
      WBA: McAuley, Ridgewell

      Angel Rangel and Williams for the 5.0 bracket.

      4.5 i'd say cuellar if his DGW is soon.

      5.5 is rafael in that bracket? maybe jagielka. I think if you were going for everton defense you'd always pick Baines for the added chance of attacking returns but he is 7.0.

        Not sure who gets maximum, prob Tevez based on goal and assist. Suarez could get it too.

        I'll be happy as long as Tevez gets some baps.

        Already scored more this week, with only 10 players in the end, than last week when I had a DGW!
