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

    Am I better off getting rid of Antonio for Son or Puncheon for Snodgrass?

    I'll most likely make a defensive change too, meaning I'll be -4

      Why as Snodgrass has great run of fixtures and nailed on and Antonio best West Ham player after Payet and good fixture next gameweek. If bringing in Arsenal or Spurs defence make that your 1 change and carry. But wait until Int break over.

        *sorry misread yes get Snodgrass for Puncheon but keep Antonio.

    How to fund Antonio -> Walcott

    A) Baines -> Cedric
    B) Baines -> Stones
    C) Baines -> Smith (BOU)
    D) Williams -> Smith (BOU)

    1. BadgersBoys
      • 12 Years

      Cedric injured, Smith and Stones are pish.

    2. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years

      C

  3. willl
    • 10 Years

    Koscielny or Bellerin?

  4. Mr. Funny Name
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone got any good gym tunes? Could do with a few new ones

  5. Professor Red
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Difference between 500k and 100k around 30pts.

    Still very close together. Im sure it wasnt so close last season?

  6. Lizard Lips

    What are fellow Antonio owners doing? Ditching for Son/Theo??

    1. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      On the fence at the moment

    2. mikess
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I think I'm going to go against the grain and save, 3 fairly decent fixtures

    3. Professor Red
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping. Ehy the heck would you want to get rid of antonio? Especially for Son lol.

      Dont chase last weeks points. Look at Antonio stats. At that price aswell and playing oop

    4. GreennRed

      Keeping him. He's rather good at football.

      1. Professor Red
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Exactly. Monster of an fpl player.

  7. JustPark

    So I come to this.
    Ibra> Deeney or Callum Wilson?
    Rest of the team:
    Foster, Heaton
    Valencia, Baines, McAuley, Amat, Love
    Ozil, Lallana, Antonio, Puncheon, Capoue
    Aguero, Ibra, Lukaku

    Thought on defender too? Kos and Vertoghen for somebody?

    1. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Tempted by Wilson myself...

      1. JustPark
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Served me well during his spell last season before the injury.

  8. Qaiss
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Should I do Bolasie > Snoddy and Antonio > Son for a -4?

  9. Jay_
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Was waiting for the Saints + 4.5 and then the Steelers later for an Acca and Brees has just thrown a 4th Q interception. Nothing to watch in the last game now.

      1. *sigh*
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Jay you should really stop betting on NFL.Saints have no secondary this season.

      use 2FTs to break formation - go to 3-5-2.
      madness?

    • SAY SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'm thinking about selling Capoue and bringing in Joe Allen as my 5th mid instead. Up turn in fixtures and playing quite an attacking role with a couple of goals this season already. Best attacking stats of any player around that price point too.

      1. aaroncfc
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        As you said he is your 5th mid. If your team is perfect elsewhere then go for it, otherwise don't waste a transfer on bench fodder. You may also need to re visit your team after the international break should there be any injuries.

    • Jonty Rhodes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      2 FTs doing tonight due to Walcott or Son price rise: Januzaj and Ibra change tonight to:

      A) Walcott and Deeney (preferrred)
      B) Son and Benteke
      C) Sterling and Austin
      D) Mane and Defoe
      E) Any other combo - Budget not an issue except Sanchez

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        A

      2. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah A seems most sensible fixtures wise anyway.

    • white lightning
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I got Bellerin instead of Kosc so that was a massive fail.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Medium long term that is not a fail.

    • Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      At under 6 mil it has to be Walker or Rose not Verthogen right? .1 short on both of them and already taken a hit so thinking wait and downgrade Antonio to Snod after international break so I can get Rose? What ye think?

    • Z
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I can never forgive Zlatan.

      Captained him over Lukaku, Firmino, Payet, even Aguero...
      Lost September Manager of the Month in my ML by 1 point,
      and drew my H2H with last year's (cocky) winner.

      Chucked him, Capoue and Iwobi out for Deeney, Walcott, Son.
