Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

One key call in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week involves go with no Manchester City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!

The funds is needed to load up on Gunners assets as they face at home one of the most struggling sides in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of five goals on their last away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the kind of encounter you must target - the leading side in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.

This squad of the week is chosen based on current prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Team Do?

No captain return but high points from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a monster eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

Which would make Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid shout.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolves have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past 6 matches.

White is a great offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two at full-back, registered a 14-point haul against Brentford and tops the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is more about the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any defender in the league.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have high hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the past two games.

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

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

Midfielders

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

This fixture against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player essential.

No stats needed to back this up. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly consistent for the Gunners.

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more opportunities than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

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

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

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

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

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he can be.

You sense that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed ChelseaEuropean loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

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

This is likely the winger's final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He has been superb for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Strikers

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

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

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He is the top striker choice this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget 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 young Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He was well at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
