Which Three Gunners Assets to Select v Wolves? FPL Squad of the Week

The major call in this FPL lineup of the week is to go with zero City players - and yes, that includes Erling Haaland!

The funds is essential to go all-in on Gunners players as they host among the most struggling teams in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of five goals on their most recent away fixture, but now they take on Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you must target - the top team in the league against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

The squad of the week is chosen based on current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster eighty-three points. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent option.

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

An Arsenal defender is a must this week. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their past six matches.

White is a great attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the last two at full-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

Everton are inconsistent so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the division.

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

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

You can't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the past two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 games.

In those matches he's had four shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolverhampton is too good to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player essential.

No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored 4 and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

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

More attacking this term, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as Mikel Arteta might view this fixture as a chance to rotate his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

Fixture-proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to points.

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

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for Everton.

Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United enter this game following two great home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's final fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He has been excellent for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his last three home matches.

Forwards

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

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

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 home games. He is the best forward option for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the young striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He was well at the start of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
