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.

    Sorry to repost.

    Here is my team. Just did Bojan to Naismith

    De Gea (Gilks)
    Cahill Clynz Debuchy (Wisdom Bruce)
    Mata Hazard Siggy Ramsey (Elmohamady)
    Costa Rooney Naismith

    1FT / 0.4 in the bank

    I would like to bring Aguero in the team for GW3 by doing:

    Debuchy to Coloccini or Taylor
    Costa/Rooney to Aguero

    What do you guys think? Is it worth a -4?

    Not much needs doing in my front 8, so for the first time ever I've used both my two frees on DFers

    Luis > Clyne (did yesterday to catch his rise)
    Chambers > Dier

    Sorry to repost.

    Here is my team. Just did Bojan to Naismith

    De Gea (Gilks)
    Cahill Clynz Debuchy (Wisdom Bruce)
    Mata Hazard Siggy Ramsey (Elmohamady)
    Costa Rooney Naismith

    1FT / 0.4 in the bank

    I would like to bring Aguero in the team for GW3 by doing:

    Debuchy to Coloccini or Taylor
    Costa/Rooney to Aguero

    What do you guys think? Is it worth a -4?

      None at all. 🙂 I felt for sure lightning was going to strike twice and he would score today, to reward the casual bandwagoners - but we got away with it. He'll probably never score again

      Chelsea are looking pretty decent. You might do well with 3.

      But if I had to choose from Cesc or Costa.............. bye bye Cesc
