Selecting the Three Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolves? FPL Team of the Gameweek

One major call in this FPL lineup of the week involves select no City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The funds is needed to load up on Gunners assets as they face at home among the poorest teams in Premier League history.

Yes, City smashed a total of five times on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of fixture you must exploit - the top side in the league against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the week is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo led to a huge 83 points. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, passionate, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

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

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past 6 matches.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the last two at right-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Gunners defensive players with two key passes, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has generated more chances (19) than any defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You can't have high hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the last two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's taken 4 attempts, 2 big chances, a goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday too.

Midfield Picks

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

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

No stats needed to support this pick. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted four and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's created more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager could see this fixture as a chance to rotate his players.

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

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

He was absent for ChelseaEuropean loss at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for Everton.

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

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

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

He's been superb for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.

Attack

Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (home)

It has been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just three FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the top striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench
