Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Picks to Select v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Week

One major decision in this Fantasy Premier League team of the gameweek is to go with zero City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

Our funds are essential to go all-in on Gunners assets as they face at home one of the most struggling sides in English top-flight history.

Yes, City scored in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the sort of match-up you need to exploit - the best side in the division against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence.

The team of the gameweek is picked based on current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Team Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but high scores from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a massive eighty-three points. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is going to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those games that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick.

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal away from home so far and one in their last six fixtures.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are unpredictable so this selection is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)

You can't have high expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 games.

During that spell he's taken four shots, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

More attacking this term, he's created more chances than any other Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta could see this fixture as a chance to rest his squad.

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (home)

Fernandes might have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several routes to points.

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h)

Leeds United enter this game off the back of two great home results against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's last match before departing for the AFCON.

He has been excellent for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his past three fixtures at home.

Attack

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It's been a disappointing last few gameweeks for the striker owners, with only 3 FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the best forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was well at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.

Subs' Bench
