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.

    David Silva one of my favourite players for this reason...very consistent scorer. He won't score every week or even every other week, but those assists and bonus will rack up.

      Yup, Mr. Consistent. My reason for picking him over Ramsey. Not to mention City attack so much

          Based on last year without Sanchez to spread the attack out.

        I disagree Vets, Jovetic and Dzeko are different types of player. Pelle seems to like a tall target man to lump the ball to/hold it up (Dzeko/Negredo) and a more technically able player to come through (Aguero/Jovetic) though how technically able Jovetic is I am not sure.
