The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

4,784 Comments
Share

After a subdued Saturday programme, Sunday explodes on us with veritable feast of football featuring five of last season’s top seven sides. While Chelsea’s visit to the Etihad at tea-time is undoubtedly the headline act, we’ve plenty to keep us engaged until the 4pm kick-off.

The day begins with a pair of fixtures, with Leicester looking to continue their impressive start to their campaign against Louis van Gaal’s United redux, whilst at the Lane, Spurs will be seeking to dish out further punishment to a West Brom side that’s faltered out of the blocks so far.

That’s rounded off by the main event in Manchester, with Everton’s Goodison clash with Crystal Palace running alongside it. Fantasy managers look set for a eventful afternoon,then, with the day’s events potential turning Gameweek fortunes on their head.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news and key injury updates as the night draws in and Gameweek 5 draws to a close.

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

    What do we think of United then? Played great football but the penalty decision literally took it away from us. Looks good for the rest of the season but playing catch up is far from ideal.

      I'm a United fan, but you can't blame the result on the first peno decision, it was just one goal of the goddam 5 they scored. second peno was correct too.

        The way they sulked after the bad penalty decision was unacceptable. Just get on with it.

          It's a sign of poor character to let one bad decision disrail the team. Especially when you're still in the lead after it anyway.

      Same here. Not too bothered unless Fabregas scores, which doesn't look likely. In fact I can see Fabregas getting subbed as Chelsea aren't getting on the ball in midfield enough. Either him or Ramires.
