We start Gameweek 5 at the Liberty Stadium, as Michael Laudrup’s Swansea host Everton. The Dugout Discussion is open, so come in and follow all the day’s action amongst fellow fantasy football managers. The team news is in and there’s one or two surprises…

Swansea XI: Vorm, Rangel, Tate, Williams, Davies, Ki, de Guzman, Michu, Hernandez, Routledge, Graham.

Everton XI: Howard, Neville, Heitinga, Jagielka, Baines, Osman, Pienaar, Coleman, Fellaini, Mirallas, Anichebe.

Following their defeat at Aston Villa last time out, Nathan Dyer and Leon Britton drop to the bench with Ki Sung Yueng and Pablo Hernandez coming in.

Having scored on Monday night against Newcastle, Victor Anichebe earns a starting berth, replacing the injured Nikica Jelavic.

There’s another five Premier League fixtures to enjoy after Swansea and Everton do battle – so plenty of fantasy points on offer all round. The Dugout Discussion chatroom is the place to see them roll in, which can be accessed right here.

        A cleanie is worth a goal and some successful crosses. Fellaini has also been off target.

      Last season i remember Dempsey hitting the crossbar before it went in off the keeper, he only got an assist as a result, not a goal,i worry that the same principle will apply here. real shame tbh

      I was laughed off for suggesting Fellaini pre season, laughed off I say. The joke's on me - I didn't go for him.

      Regarding the earlier assist discussion, the rule is phrased badly

      "Assists are awarded to the player from the goal scoring team, who makes the last touch before the goal is scored."

      The last touch before a goal for the goal scoring team is technically always the goalscorer. What they *mean* is the last player on the goalscoring team excluding the goalscorer to touch the ball. It does not say this has to be the second last touch of the ball, the goalscorer can touch it as many times as he likes before scoring without affecting the assist to the second last player to touch it. therefore Pienaar gets an assist.

        "Pienaar gets an assist."

        But that's not what the rule says. It like if you win and the score a penalty, no assist is awarded. Same here by the letter of the law as the scorer was also the assister.

        He will get the assist. The touch by the defender means nothing as the ball was goal bound. Fellani will get the goal so piennar will get the assist. Simples.
