Which Three Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? FPL Squad of the Week

The key decision in the FPL squad of the week involves select zero Manchester City assets - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

Our funds are required to load up on Gunners assets as they welcome one of the most struggling sides in Premier League history.

It's true, Manchester City scored in 5 times on their last away trip, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of fixture you must exploit - the leading side in the division against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and self-belief.

The lineup of the week is selected using current valuations to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

How did The Previous Team Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (9), plus a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a huge 83 points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it could be one of those games that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid shout.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must this week. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home this season and one in their past six fixtures.

Ben White is a great attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the past two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

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

Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the division.

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

Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (home)

You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United shutout - they have just one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have slowed down in the past two matches.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, two big chances, a goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday too.

Midfielders

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

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

No stats required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday night, netted 4 and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal.

With more license to attack this term, he's generated more chances than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to his name.

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have replaced Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to points.

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

This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for the Blues'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United come into this match off the back of two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've netted.

This is probably Ouattara final fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has five attacking returns in his past three home matches.

Attack

Igor Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for the striker owners, with only 3 FPL points in two matches.

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

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

Surely Arne Slot continues to start with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds United.

He performed great at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for minutes at the number nine role.

Subs' Bench

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