Selecting the Three Gunners Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek

One key call in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek involves opt for zero City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

The budget are required to load up on Gunners assets as they face at home one of the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City scored a total of five goals on their last away trip, but now they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And Arsenal home to Wolves is the sort of encounter you just have to exploit - the leading side in the division against one lacking of momentum, quality and self-belief.

The squad of the gameweek is selected based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Team of the Week for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent pick.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal away from home so far and a single goal in their last six fixtures.

White is a great offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two at full-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the way in that period among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are unpredictable so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more opportunities (19) than any defensive player in the league.

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been getting in some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three games.

In those matches he's had four shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.

Midfielders

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

This game against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored four and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

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

More advanced this season, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rotate his players.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

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

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (home)

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

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

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this game off the back of two great home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is likely Ouattara last match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been outstanding for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his past three home matches.

Attack

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)

It has been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker FPL managers, with just three FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has seven strikes in seven fixtures at home. He is the top striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.

Substitutes
