Which Three Gunners Picks to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week

The major move in the FPL team of the gameweek involves opt for zero Manchester City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The funds is needed to invest heavily on Gunners assets as they welcome among the poorest teams in English top-flight history.

It's true, City smashed in five goals on their last away fixture, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolves is the type of match-up you must exploit - the leading team in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The squad of the gameweek is selected based on current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Lineup Perform?

No captain return but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo produced a massive eighty-three points. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good option.

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

An Gunners defender is a must for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal on the road so far and one in their past six matches.

White is a great attacking option when he is given his opportunity. He started the last two at right-back, registered a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (h)

The Toffees are erratic so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have high hopes for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 games.

In those matches he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that renders Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and might have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

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

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to points.

Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds come into this match following two great home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's last match before heading to the AFCON.

He has been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his past three home matches.

Attack

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

It's been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with only three points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has 7 strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the best striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.

Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He was great at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.

Substitutes

• Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
