The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

24 August 2014 6148 comments

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.

    This team alright for next week

    Krul (Bego)
    Colo/Clyne Jones Cahill (Moore)
    Hendo, Siggy, Eriksen, Silva, Ramsey
    Rooney, Costa (Fletcher)
    Happy with the squad, no free transfers left, but suggestion for starting xi. Hendo always seems to play well against Spurs.

    This is what happens when Woodward tells the football world that we can break the transfer record. I suspect the initial fee was 48m-55m and the rest was add-ons.

    Is ADM a FPL prospect?

    He only got 4 goals...

    I know he got 17 assists too,

    BUT we have to expect a drop in these stats when you move to a worse (be honest) team, AND a harder league...

    Unless he is 9.0, I'm not getting him
