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 Hughton’s Norwich. That’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 Rooney’s performance. With a potential absence for Sergio Aguero looming, the United striker could make himself “essential” over the Christmas period if he can produce in the midlands. With Michu expected to earn a run-out at Norwich, we’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 today’s three fixtures.

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

      I'm going to captain Suarez no matter what from now on. Cue him biting Malky Mackay 5 minutes in after arguing on the touchline and getting sent off.

    at least all the Suarez (C) or Not(C) moaning/boasting takes away from, "how long is Aguero out?" "Should I do Aguero > Negredo?"

        That is a good point. But though he does have 4 yellows, I feel Silva is not that likely to pick up one every match. Compared to other tightrope players.

        But yeah, might edge towards Yaya, who is now on penos as well.

    The maim figure that matters is what % of people captained Suarez. I seem to remember Smarty pants reported 56% of captains in the top 10k had already played last night. So Suarez should be captained by some way below 44% of high flying players, especially when you take off Rooney captainers. Who knows exactly how much he will be, maybe around 30%?

    It's not nearly as high as when he slaughtered West Ham, is my point.
