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

    Is Williams doing well in the baps like he did last season for Swansea?

    As in, when Everton keep a clean sheet does Williams' stats look like he may often be in the bonus points quite often?

    I have both he and Baines and assuming Baines is fit, I'm not sure who to shift next GW?

      As a Williams owner I can truly say that his returns have been disappointing. Jagielka is getting better BPS scores.

      The EVE back 4 are all really close when you work out average bps per game,so it's a bit of a toss up really. Certainly doesn't appear to be a bps machine at the moment

        He didn't kick it into.Kos's hand, he kicked Kos's foot, resulting in Kos kicking the ball which then hit Kos's arm to go in.

        That's why it wasn't offside... Ox hadn't passed to Kos and they were both onside when it came across from Walcotts header.

        Handball but not offside.

        Sterling : in the form of his life, a blank against Spurs shouldn't be alarming.
        Antonio : in a very good form and looked good in the last two games.
        Valencia : United must collect some clean sheets sooner rather than later.
        Lovren : has a long run of easy fixtures after the United game.

        I would keep.

      Undecided re: Ibra, Grant's early save was class. If that goes in its a different game.

      Then again, an 11+ valued player who is unlucky is not desirable! May give him a week or two more.
