Which Top 3 Arsenal Picks to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek
The big move in the Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek involves select zero Manchester City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!
Our funds is essential to go all-in on Gunners players as they face at home one of the most struggling teams in English top-flight history.
It's true, City smashed a total of five times on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of xGC.
And Arsenal home to Wolves is the kind of match-up you need to exploit - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and confidence.
This lineup of the gameweek is picked based on current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.
Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?
No captain return but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky 16-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a massive 83 points. Success!
FPL Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16
Defensive Picks
Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)
This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be loud, passionate, combative - and it might be one of those games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.
A scenario that would make Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent option.
White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (home)
An Gunners defender is a essential pick this week. Wolves have just one goal scored on the road this season and a single goal in their last six matches.
Ben White is a fantastic attacking option when he is given his chance. He started the last two at right-back, registered a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the way in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are unpredictable so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and the Spaniard's potential.
The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the division.
And he is yet to score yet, having netted five goals last season.
Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)
You can't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two games.
Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.
In those matches he's had four attempts, two clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday as well.
Midfield
Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
This fixture against Wolves is too good to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player essential.
Little statistical analysis 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 keen to attack.
Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)
Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.
With more license to attack this term, he's generated more opportunities than any other Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager could see this fixture as a chance to rotate his players.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (home)
The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.
Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to FPL returns.
Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)
This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.
You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be rushing to sign him up.
He was absent for the Blues'Champions League loss at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds come into this match off the back of two great home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.
This is probably Ouattara last match before heading to the AFCON.
He has been excellent for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 fixtures at home.
Forwards
Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)
It has been a frustrating last few weeks for the striker owners, with just three FPL points in two games.
Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the January window at the very least.
Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)
It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace haul at Leeds United.
He performed great at the beginning of the season 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 centre-forward.
