Which Three Arsenal Players to Pick v Wolves? FPL Team of the Gameweek

The key move in this FPL lineup of the gameweek involves go with no City assets - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is needed to load up on Gunners players as they face at home one of the worst teams in English top-flight history.

Yes, Manchester City scored in five times on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the kind of encounter you must exploit - the leading team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

The team of the week is selected based on current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Squad Perform?

No captain return but strong points from Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent pick.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Arsenal defender is a must this week. Wolves have one goal on the road this season and a single goal in their last 6 matches.

White is a great attacking option when he gets his chance. Having started the last two at full-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

Everton are unpredictable so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the league.

And he hasn't scored yet, after scoring five goals last season.

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

You can't have high hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have slowed down in the last two games.

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

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, 2 big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfielders

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

This game against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored four and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

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

More attacking this season, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

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

Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

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

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for the Blues'European loss at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be well-rested for the Toffees.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United come into this match following two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, 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 has been excellent for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past 3 home matches.

Attack

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It's been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the best 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, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace performance at Leeds.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes

  • Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
