Which Top 3 Gunners Picks to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week
The big move in this FPL squad of the gameweek involves opt for no Manchester City players - indeed, even Haaland!
Our budget are needed to go all-in on Arsenal players as they welcome among the poorest sides in English top-flight history.
It's true, Manchester City scored in 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of xGC.
And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of match-up you just have to attack - the leading side in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.
This squad of the gameweek is selected using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.
Performance of The Previous Team Fare?
The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a monster 83 points. Success!
Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)
This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is set to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little clear chances.
Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent shout.
White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their last six fixtures.
White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his chance. Having started the past two at full-back, had a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)
The Toffees are inconsistent so this selection is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.
The London club have the fourth-best defence while he has created more opportunities (19) than any defender in the division.
And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.
Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)
You shouldn't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the last two games.
Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as a wing-back in the last 3 fixtures.
During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday too.
Midfielders
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.
No stats needed to back this up. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday, scored four and might have had twice as many.
Arsenal will be rubbing their hands.
Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)
Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is so consistent for the Gunners.
More advanced this term, he's generated more opportunities than any Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a opportunity to rest his players.
Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)
Fernandes might have replaced Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.
Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.
You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.
He missed ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.
Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h)
Leeds United enter this match off the back of two great home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three goals for every one they've netted.
This is likely the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.
He has been excellent for Brentford this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past three fixtures at home.
Strikers
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)
It's been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 FPL points in two games.
However, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 home games. He is the top striker choice this week and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget until the January window at least.
Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home)
It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the promising striker, after his brace haul at Leeds.
He performed strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.
Substitutes
- Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
