The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday serves up a trio of Gameweek encounters, with Thursday’s Europa League ties pushing Hull and Tottenham’s home fixtures alongside Man United’s trip to the Stadium of Light.

Events begin at the KC Stadium and White Hart Lane, with Steve Bruce’s Hull hosting Stoke and Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs facing a London derby clash with QPR. Fantasy managers will be focused mainly on the latter, with Christian Eriksen the top owned asset on show from the early kick-offs.

Attention then turns to the North East, with Louis van Gaal’s United outfit taking on Sunderland in a bid to get their season underway following the opening day defeat to Swansea. With a staggering 48% ownership, Wayne Rooney remains the headline act, while Juan Mata’s 19% ownership will be holding out for returns in order to stem a tide of sales that have already seen the Spanish playmaker drop in price.

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

    From BBC

    "GOAL - Tottenham 2-0 QPR - Eric Dier (30 mins)
    He's a good un! Eric Dier scores for the second successive match as he evades his marker - QPR new boy Leroy Fer - and heads home Erik Lamela's corner at the near post. Cue a flood of people transferring this goalscoring defender into their Fantasy Football teams."

      It is only GW2 and no one was expecting anything close to a CS for spurs away.
      The interest was based on a very good goal threat, which based on GW1 at least, he still has this season.

        I guess, but 5.0 for a QPR defender! Madness still.

      I didn't quite see the appeal in him, being 5.0 playing for a crap team. Then again, today isn't the day one would expect him to excel, lets see how he fares next week.

    Definitely time for a change from Stoke.

    Whelan, Sidwell & N'Zonzi in midfield won't break down the Hull defence, with none of them particularly creative. I'd bring on Bojan in the hole.

    I'm not going to sell Chester right now. I was planning to replace Caulker with Bertrand and that's going to be my FT. Next week i'll have Terry, Bertrand and one between Chambers and Dummett, probably the latter rather than the former. Don't take a hit for a DF, people.
