      I think Nketiah will likely start but training pic could easily be a trap from Arteta

        Just seems a bit strange when it’s Burnley. If they were facing a team in the top tier, then it makes more sense

    The (C)onundrum:

    Salah: Superb attacking returns in home games this season but is against a Brentford side that is fresh from no mid-week travels an who won’t roll over.

    Watkins: Blanked in the last 2 games but has haul potential at home (remember the BHA game? But Fulham’s defence has improved from last season.

    Martinelli: Superb performance in the ECL midweek and has been told by Arteta to be more direct. Burnley weak currently in the fullback positions. But if Nketiah starts that may dent his output.
