Which Top 3 Gunners Assets to Pick v Wolves? FPL Team of the Week

The big move in this FPL squad of the week involves opt for zero Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Haaland!

The budget is essential to go all-in on Gunners assets as they host one of the worst teams in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed in five times on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolverhampton is the sort of encounter you must attack - the top team in the league against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.

This lineup of the week is selected using current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Do?

No captain return but high points from Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a monster eighty-three points total. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Team of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but minimal clear chances.

Which would make Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good option.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their last six fixtures.

White is a great offensive threat when he is given his chance. Having started the past two at full-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while Cucurella has created more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the division.

And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five times last season.

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

You shouldn't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.

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

Midfield

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

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

No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday, netted four and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

One point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.

More advanced this season, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to his name.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rotate his players.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.

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

This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for Everton.

Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United come into this game off the back of two great home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three goals for every one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been excellent for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his last three fixtures at home.

Forwards

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It has been a disappointing couple of weeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven home games. He's the best forward option for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at least.

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

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He performed well at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.
