Selecting the Three Gunners Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

The key decision in the FPL lineup of the week involves opt for no Manchester City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The funds is required to invest heavily on Arsenal assets as they host among the worst teams in Premier League history.

Yes, City scored a total of five times on their last away trip, but now they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the sort of match-up you just have to exploit - the top side in the division against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.

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

Performance of Last Week's Team Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but strong hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a monster 83 points. Success!

FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it could be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal scored away from home this season and one in their past 6 fixtures.

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

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

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

The London club have the fourth-best defence while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals last season.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two games.

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

During that spell he's taken four shots, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player essential.

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

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

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

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so consistent for Arsenal.

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more opportunities than any Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager might view this as a chance to rest his squad.

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

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

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

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds United come into this game following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is probably the winger's last match before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

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

Forwards

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

It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just three FPL points in two matches.

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

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He performed well at the beginning of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for playing time at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench

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