Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Squad of the Week

The major move in the FPL lineup of the week involves go with no City players - and yes, even Haaland!

The budget is required to load up on Gunners assets as they host one of the poorest sides in Premier League history.

It's true, City smashed a total of 5 times on their most recent away trip, but now they take on Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And the Gunners hosting Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you just have to attack - the top side in the league against one lacking of form, technical ability and self-belief.

The squad of the week is selected based on current FPL valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Squad Do?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a monster 83 points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

A scenario that would render the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent option.

Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal away from home so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the past two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defenders with 2 key passes, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

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 this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have just one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.

In those matches he's taken four attempts, two big chances, one goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfielders

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

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to ignore and that makes Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential.

No stats required to back this up. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.

More advanced this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners 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 rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.

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

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (h)

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an explosive FPL asset he can be.

You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)

Leeds United enter this match following two great home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've netted.

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

He's been outstanding for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his last three home matches.

Strikers

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It's been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago owners, with only 3 FPL points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the top striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold up until the January window at least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He was strongly at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench
