Selecting the Three Arsenal Picks to Pick v Wolves? FPL Squad of the Gameweek

The key move in this FPL team of the week is to select zero Manchester City players - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is required to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they host one of the most struggling teams in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, City smashed a total of five goals on their last away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolves is the sort of fixture you just have to target - the top side in the league against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the gameweek is chosen based on current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Lineup Perform?

No captain return but strong points from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a huge 83 points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Keeper and Defence

Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and a single goal in their last 6 matches.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two games at right-back, had a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (home)

Everton are erratic so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any other defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three fixtures.

In those matches he's had four shots, two clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfield

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

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too good to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)

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

More advanced this season, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This gameweek's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy 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 rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds come into this match off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for each one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been superb for Brentford this season, and has five goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two games.

However, he's the second top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the best forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget up until the end of January at the very least.

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

Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

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

The Bench

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