Which Three Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

One big call in this Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek is to opt for zero Manchester City players - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

The funds is required to go all-in on Gunners assets as they host among the worst sides in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed in 5 times on their last away fixture, but now they face Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the type of match-up you must attack - the best team in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.

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

How did Last Week's Team Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a monster 83 points total. Success!

FPL Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League for eight years is going to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

Which would render Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent shout.

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

An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have just one goal on the road this season and a single goal in their last six fixtures.

White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defensive players with two key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

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

And he is yet to score this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)

You can't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three games.

In those matches he's taken four attempts, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday night too.

Midfield

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

This game against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player essential.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rest his players.

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

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

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

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

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

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this match off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've scored.

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

He's been outstanding for the Bees this season, and has five goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It's been a frustrating last few weeks for Thiago owners, with only three FPL points in two matches.

However, he's the second goal scorer in the division and has seven strikes in seven home games. He is the best forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the end of January at least.

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

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed strongly at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
