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

One big move in this FPL team of the gameweek is to select zero City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

The funds is essential to go all-in on Arsenal players as they welcome among the poorest sides in English top-flight recent memory.

It's true, City scored a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but now they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the type of fixture you just have to exploit - the leading side in the division against one devoid of form, technical ability and self-belief.

This squad of the gameweek is selected using current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Lineup Do?

No captain return but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a massive 83 points. Success!

FPL Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good shout.

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home this season and one in their past six fixtures.

White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. He started the last two games at right-back, had a 14-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)

The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.

The London club have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You can't have high expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two games.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past three games.

In those matches he's had four attempts, 2 big chances, a goal and one assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield

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

This fixture against Wolves is too good to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday, scored four and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

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

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

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

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

Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds enter this match following two great home results against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three goals for every one they've scored.

This is probably Ouattara last match before heading to the AFCON.

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

Attack

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

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

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

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

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was great at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.

Substitutes
