Selecting the Three Gunners Assets to Pick v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek

One big call in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek involves select no Manchester City players - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The budget is needed to load up on Gunners assets as they host one of the worst teams in Premier League history.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of match-up you must exploit - the leading side in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and confidence.

The lineup of the week is picked using current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.

How did The Previous Lineup Fare?

No captain return but big points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a huge eighty-three points. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

The first derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

Ben White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and one in their past 6 fixtures.

White is a great attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the last two games at right-back, registered a 14-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

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

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

And he is yet to score this season, having netted five times last season.

Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the last two games.

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the last three games.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He also missed a great opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield

Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (home)

This game against Wolverhampton is too tempting to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

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

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

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

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

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

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

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we are aware 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 flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United enter this match following two strong home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is probably Ouattara final fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He has been excellent for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 home matches.

Attack

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

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

However, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the top forward option for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can set and forget up until the end of January at least.

Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace performance at Leeds United.

He performed great at the beginning of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

Substitutes

• Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - Fulham ({h|home
