Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Choose v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One major call in this FPL team of the week involves select no Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Haaland!

Our funds is needed to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they host one of the most struggling teams in Premier League history.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 times on their last away trip, but now they meet Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the kind of fixture you just have to attack - the leading side in the division against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

The squad of the gameweek is chosen based on current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

Performance of Last Week's Squad Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big scores from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a monster 83 points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)

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

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent shout.

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

An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home so far and one in their last 6 matches.

White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the last two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point return against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home)

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (19) than any defensive player in the division.

And he is yet to score yet, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

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

You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the last two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.

During that spell he's taken 4 shots, two big chances, a goal and one assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield

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

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

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

With more license to attack this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

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

Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (home)

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several routes to points.

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

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

He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds United (h)

Leeds come into this match following two great home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara final match before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

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

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the January window at the very least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the young Frenchman, after his brace performance at Leeds.

He was well at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench

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