Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

One big call in the FPL squad of the week involves select zero City assets - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland!

Our budget is required to go all-in on Gunners assets as they face at home among the poorest teams in English top-flight history.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of five goals on their last away trip, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you need to attack - the top side in the division against one devoid of form, quality and self-belief.

This squad of the gameweek is selected using current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a huge 83 points total. Success!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is going to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those games that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid pick.

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

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have just one goal scored away from home so far and one in their past six fixtures.

Ben White is a great offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. Having started the last two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)

Everton are inconsistent so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella upside.

The London club have the fourth-best defence while he has created more chances (nineteen) than any other defender in the league.

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last 3 games.

During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfield

Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best offensive asset essential.

No stats needed to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

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

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

More attacking this season, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners player (27) and has five assists to his name.

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

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

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

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

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

He missed the Blues'European loss at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

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

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

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

He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his last three home matches.

Forwards

Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for the striker owners, with just three points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the top striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget up until the January window at the very least.

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

Surely the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He was well at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
