Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Picks to Choose v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek
The major call in this FPL squad of the week involves opt for zero Manchester City players - and yes, even Erling Haaland!
The budget are essential to load up on Gunners assets as they welcome among the poorest teams in Premier League recent memory.
It's true, Manchester City scored in five times on their last away trip, but now they take on Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division 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 league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.
This team of the week is picked using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit.
Performance of The Previous Team Fare?
No captain return but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a huge eighty-three points total. Success!
FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16
Keeper and Defence
Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
The first derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.
A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good option.
White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road so far and one in their last 6 fixtures.
Ben White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the last two at full-back, had a 14-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)
The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella upside.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while he has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the league.
And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five times last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)
You can't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the last two games.
More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.
During that spell he's taken four shots, two clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday as well.
Midfield
Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.
No stats needed to back this up. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday, scored 4 and might have had twice as many.
The Gunners will be licking their lips.
Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.
More advanced this term, he's generated more chances than any other Arsenal teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this as a opportunity to rest his squad.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (home)
Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.
Match-up proof, always a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to FPL returns.
Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)
This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he can be.
You sense that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.
He was absent for ChelseaChampions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.
Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)
Leeds United come into this match off the back of two great home results against the Blues and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.
This is likely Ouattara final match before heading to the AFCON.
He's been superb for the Bees this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.
Forwards
Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)
It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with only three FPL points in two games.
However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in seven fixtures at home. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at least.
Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)
Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.
He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
Subs' Bench
