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.

    Was listening to the match in the car. Sterling did sound impressive but Liverpool overall not so much. Think I might have to have a close look at Messrs Mata and Eriksen's performances next week.

      Dont over think . Saints were very impressive today. Liverpoolwill still dominate most lower sides.

    Very surprised to see Siggurdson not in the Scout Picks.

    With all of United's injuries at the back, he was always going to be amongst the points. Especially considering he is now back at his favoured playing position at Swansea.

      I'm in agreement with you but might be better off giving it the first 3 GWs and seeing who has scored better etc.
