Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? FPL Squad of the Week
One key call in this FPL squad of the gameweek is to select no Manchester City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!
Our funds is needed to go all-in on Arsenal players as they face at home one of the poorest sides in Premier League history.
Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 goals on their last away fixture, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the type of fixture you must target - the leading side in the division against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.
The squad of the week is chosen based on current valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.
How did Last Week's Squad Do?
The captain didn't deliver but big hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a huge eighty-three points. Success!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
This long-awaited derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those tight games that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.
Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick.
Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored away from home this season and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.
White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
The Toffees are erratic so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefence and Cucurella potential.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defensive player in the league.
And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five times last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)
You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two games.
Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.
In those matches he's had four attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday night as well.
Midfield Picks
Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
This game against Wolves is too good to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player a must-have.
Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.
Arsenal will be keen to attack.
Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.
More attacking this season, he's created more chances than any other Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the surest bet for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a opportunity to rotate his players.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)
The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.
Match-up proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.
Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (h)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an explosive FPL asset he can be.
You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to sign him up.
He was absent for the Blues'Champions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)
Leeds United come into this game following two great home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three times for each one they've netted.
This is likely Ouattara last match before departing for the AFCON.
He's been excellent for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)
It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 points in two matches.
However, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He's the top forward option this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least.
Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)
It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young Frenchman, 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 a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
Subs' Bench
- Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
