The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday presents two further Premier League encounters with a variety of Fantasy heavy-hitters on show.

Events begin at Anfield, with Liverpool starting life without Luis Suarez with an encounter against a Southampton side ravaged by a summer exodus. It’s a fascinating scenario that’s set to feature an-all start case of assets, including Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling – players burdened by big Fantasy ownership and expectation. The Saints, meanwhile, arrive on Merseyside looking to gel quickly after a flurry of new arrivals under the guidance of new boss, Ronald Koeman.

The day concludes at St James’ Park, as Newcastle host champions City. Manuel Pellegrini will likely field a much-changed side to the XI that suffered a Community Shield reverse against Arsenal. Even so, Fantasy investment in the City ranks has been tempered, with Yaya Toure remaining the top target, finding his way into 20% of Fantasy Premier League squads. Like Southampton, Newcastle present us with an array of new signings to assess, making Sunday a vital opportunity to scout talent.

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

    Kolarov and Jovetic starting for me. Blow of not having Sterling has been softened

    Please people, don't knee jerk and get Sturridge, getting Sterling will be much more rewarding. Rooney and Costa offer better value up front than "Studge" in my opinion and Sterling is just a gem.

    So, any chance that they will change that Sturridge goal to Sterling, even if they already put it down as an assist on the FPL site?

    Don't have Kolarov but would be brilliant I see him got nuts today and let him toy with our emotions once more.
