The Dugout Discussion – Burnley vs Arsenal

Gameweek 7 comes to its conclusion as Burnley welcome Arsenal to Turf Moor.

The Gunners roll up on the back of four straight league wins, with Alexis Sanchez and Theo Walcott both in fine recent form.

The Chilean teed up Walcott’s pair of strikes in the midweek Champions League win over FC Basel and with three double-figure hauls in four, carries the armband hopes of many at Turf Moor.

Walcott has now notched five times in seven across all competitions and has risen to 6% ownership in Fantasy Premier League.

Another big performance today would surely kick start a bandwagon over the international break, yet Arsene Wenger’s side face an obstinate Clarets rearguard that has conceded just five goals in the previous 17 league matches in front of their own supporters.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      I think Walcott should get assist as I think koscielny kicked the ball onto his own hand

      But agree re: Rose assist

    I brought Sanchez in against my better judgement. Tough away game, he eats up 11m and whenever I own him he screws me over!

    Tempted to do Sanch -> Theo to get those funds back.

      Don't do the old "back and forth", you got Sanchez, he still has three great fixtures, he's going to get points. Also, international break, possible injuries, waiting is your game plan.

    Although it is supposed to be handball and offside goal, it is clearly Kos goal. If not given that way, then it is a rule mistake because of that if the ball just touches a teammate who is clearly offside, then it is offside. And he is on the position to possess the ball. So it must be Kos goal.
