Which Three Gunners Players to Select v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Week

The big move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the gameweek involves go with no Manchester City assets - indeed, that includes Haaland!

Our funds are 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 scored a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but this time they face Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolves is the kind of fixture you just have to target - the best side in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the week is picked using current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

Performance of Last Week's Team Fare?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a massive 83 points. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Week for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good option.

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

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolves have one goal scored away from home this season and a single goal in their past six fixtures.

White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the past two games at right-back, registered a 14-point haul against the Bees and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any defender in the division.

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

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

You can't have great expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two matches.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.

During that spell he's had 4 attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday night too.

Midfielders

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

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

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

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly consistent for the Gunners.

With more license to attack this term, he's created more chances than any other Gunners player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a opportunity to rotate his players.

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

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

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points.

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

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

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

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (h)

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

This is probably Ouattara final match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his last three fixtures at home.

Strikers

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

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

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds.

He was great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.

The Bench

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