The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday brings the Gameweek to a close with a trio of matches featuring an array of Fantasy talent. Things get rolling with a pair of lunchtime kick-offs, as Villa host United and Swansea make the trip to Carrow Road to face Chris Hughtonā€™s Norwich. Thatā€™s followed by the headline act, as Andre Villas-Boas looks to continue the Spurs revival against a Liverpool unit weakened by a string of injuries.

While the press will be focused on David Moyes, Fantasy managers will be more interested in Wayne Rooneyā€™s performance. With a potential absence for Sergio Aguero looming, the United striker could make himself ā€œessentialā€ over the Christmas period if he can produce in the midlands. With Michu expected to earn a run-out at Norwich, weā€™ll have the opportunity to assess whether he can join both David Silva and Theo Walcott on our midfield Christmas list, while at 4pm, all eyes will be on Luis Suarez as he looks to overcome the absence of skipper Steven Gerrard and strike partner Daniel Sturridge against the Spurs back four.

Look to our Twitter feed for the latest teamsheet bulletins, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and will remain available throughout todayā€™s three fixtures.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    My front 3 will be
    Suarez (C) Lukaka Negredo

    Will invest in midfield.
    Hazard Ozil Wally Silva all good choices.
