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

    sanchez blank would make this a low key good GW.

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Behave

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Very high key for me.

    3. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Sanchez blank is essential.

  2. le flem
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    so... aguero always scores a hat trick gw8, right?

  3. Numb
    • 11 Years

    Son or Walcott?

    1. Jasoooooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Assess after this game

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Wally easily. I was shocked when I looked at Sons price

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Similar to Walcott? But you much prefer Wally?

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Lol, looked at his former and thought he was 9.5 😀

          Still Wally

          1. The Bandit
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            form

    3. le flem
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      son

    4. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Son. Trust me this boy is good. My only worry is long term

  4. Jamie_GAWA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How long till Harry Kane is back from injury?

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No one knows, Spurs keeping quiet on the matter.

  5. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    First game went brilliantly with Ibra & Utd def blanking.

    Middle two games went poorly, Kun (C) and Sterling + 3 teams getting a CS.

    Sanchez and kos here, Sanchez captained by looooooads of the top10k so not sure what I want really.

  6. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Coleman, Vertongen or Fuchs?

    1. Krul Runnings
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      C or F over Vert easily.

      Personally I would prefer Fuchs

    2. Jasoooooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm really liking Fuchs in the long term, attacking, and Leicester's fixtures clear up in a couple of weeks.

    3. Cojiro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Baines replacement? Vert if no Spurs

  7. Pinky Blinders
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Seems like Son is looking a price rise, but I think Alli is the one to get. Although he doesn't do as well in away games and they have two coming up after the break.

    1. Jamie_GAWA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Son may be on penos now?

    2. JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Agree he was excellent today

  8. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How many % have Sanchez (c) ?

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      22.4% of FFS

    2. Krul Runnings
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      41

      Even more in top10k

  9. Studgie G
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Hope Sanchez gets a goal or assist but not get more

    Walcott getting more is better his a differential

    Also need no cleanie

  10. Jay_
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Valencia, Rashford, Ibra, Stones, Sterling, Aguero

      Combined score of 8 from 6.

      Must be a few people who own all 6

      1. Jasoooooooo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I only own 1 of them (Aguero), thank god for that

    • Gianfranco Zola
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Played Valencia, Collins and Williams. Benched Walker

      Lesson learnt, don't bench your only good defender

    • pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Selling Ibra and Capoue and buying Payet on WC have been my best decision this season. 🙂

    • The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Scout picks have done terribly so far this week, except Deeney and Firmino.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Holebas?
        Pickford?

        1. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Not a bad week tbh

      2. Live Lad
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Not the first time

    • Live Lad
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Not a very bad start being ranked just over 100 k. However, I made big mistakes on Ibra.. Not starting the season with him.. Getting him after his early form.. Holding onto him for too long., And CAPTAINING him today!!! Got just a goal and assist only from him locking up all those funds could have been used for players like Sanchez or Costa. Selling him tomorrow when I decide on who to get.

      Can spend up to 7.6 but want to less if possible:

      (1) Deeney
      (2) Austin
      (3) Benteke
      (4) Wilson
      (5) Defoe
      (6) any?

      1. Toked
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Deeney for sure. Form and fixtures.

    • Jasoooooooo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Lesson learnt from Walker getting a CS......... I will not be benching Baines this week!

    • Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Really need to sort my defence, week on week getting nothing but 1's & 2's.

      Time to invest in a Spurs & Arse def?

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Spurs look a good defence

      2. Jasoooooooo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Arsenal yes, not sure about Spurs...... They'll get CS's but there fixtures are beginning to look a bit rough after the next couple of GW's

        1. Numb
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Today's fixture looked tough

        2. Greenbackbøøg…
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Spurs just kept a clean sheet against the best attack in the league to be fair

    • JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Anyone watch Saints v Leicester?

      Who looked most dangerous out of the Leicester attackers?

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Hows Sanchez?

    • Jamie_GAWA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I need to get .5 from now defence

      Valencia to Curtis Davies?

      Yay or nay?

      1. Jasoooooooo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Might as well get a cheaper Hull defender (Robertson maybe??) if you're gonna get a defender from Hull

        1. Jamie_GAWA
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Davies will rock the baps and is very attacking

          1. Jasoooooooo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Yeah I know but he seems a bit expensive for a Hull defender, not sure how many CS's they are gonna keep despite their fixtures

    • BB-8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Cedric injury serious? Martina could be a steal at 4.3

      1. JIM BOB
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I've seen this asked loads of times on here already.

        Gotta live fantasy football 🙂

        1. BB-8
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Hahaha. Fantasy football brings out the bright side in injuries 😛

      2. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        He came back on before going off again so guessing it's nothing serious, your right though Martina if he got a run would be great at that price

    • Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure Arsenal have turned up here. Burnley proving very stubborn.

      1. JIM BOB
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        14 mins gone.

    • Toked
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Good luck to San(c)hezzers!

      Jaku - Pickford
      Lovren - Kosc - Walker - Williams - Amat
      Sterling - Firminio - Antonio - Capoue - Snodgrass
      Costa - Lukaku - Kun
      0.5 iTB

      Thinking of this for a -4
      Jaku-> Lloris
      Sterling -> Son/Walcott
      Lovren -> Pieters
      0.6 iTB

      Thoughts?

    • ♤TeddyBear♤
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Really tempted by Bony, you wont get better than those 3 upcoming fixtures! Am I mad?

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Did you see the game today. I don't think you would even be considering if so.

        Form over fixtures any day

      2. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Honestly? Bony looks an awful pick atm. Totally disinterested and lacking any sort of confidence.

      3. Live Lad
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Would be lucky to keep his place IMO

      4. ♤TeddyBear♤
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I watched it yes, i have my fixture blinkers on. Back to the drawing board

    • gonzalocampos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Kudos for the Burnley coach, they are very well organized. Good team Burnley!!

    • Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      What 6.0m & 5.0m def would you get right now?

      Valencia (5.5m) & Baines (5.5m) can do one....

      1. Jamie_GAWA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Davies (hull).. Thoughts on him?

      2. Toked
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Kosc/Walker
        Jag/PVA

    • Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Get lost Burnley this us Sanchez' day

    • fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Just get an early goal Sanchez to settle the nerves.

      1. Numb
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        "Arsenal played out a frustrating goalless draw at stubborn Burnley"

    • Styles_X
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Valencia to Walker a good transfer?

    • Live Lad
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Koscielny having a busy international "break"?

    • PaoloRabbiiiii
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Iwobi very sloppy so far. Is Giroud on the bench?
