Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Gameweek

One major move in the FPL team of the week involves opt for no City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

Our budget is essential to load up on Gunners players as they welcome one of the worst sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, City scored in 5 goals on their last away fixture, but this time they meet Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of encounter you need to attack - the top side in the division against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.

The lineup of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Lineup Do?

No captain return but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a huge 83 points. Boom!

FPL Team of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those matches that is full of tension but minimal goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good option.

White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past six fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two games at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (home)

Everton are erratic so this pick is more about the Blues'defence and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any other defensive player in the league.

And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You can't have high hopes for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three fixtures.

In those matches he's taken four attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolves on Monday, netted four and might have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

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

One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

More advanced this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds enter this game off the back of two strong home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've netted.

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

He has been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has five attacking returns in his last three fixtures at home.

Strikers

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

It's been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker owners, with just three FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the prime striker choice this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold up until the January window at least.

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

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

He performed great at the beginning of the season and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.

The Bench

• Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
