Which Top 3 Arsenal Assets to Choose v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

The major call in this FPL squad of the week is to opt for zero City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

The budget are required to load up on Gunners players as they host one of the worst teams in Premier League recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City scored a total of five times on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the kind of fixture you must attack - the top team in the league against one devoid of momentum, technical ability and confidence.

This squad of the week is chosen based on current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

Performance of The Previous Squad Perform?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance led to a monster eighty-three points total. Success!

FPL Team of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would render Roefs, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid pick.

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

An Gunners defender is a must this week. Wolves have one goal scored on the road so far and a single goal in their last 6 fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his chance. He started the past two games at full-back, had a fourteen-point return against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defensive players with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are unpredictable so this selection is focused more on the Blues'defensive solidity and the Spaniard's upside.

Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while he has generated more opportunities (19) than any defensive player in the division.

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

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

You shouldn't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two matches.

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

During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday night as well.

Midfield

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

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

No stats needed to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored 4 and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be licking their lips.

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

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

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

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

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Semenyo as the must-own Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, consistently a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we are aware what an high-scoring fantasy player he can be.

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

He missed ChelseaEuropean loss at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this match following two strong home results against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three goals for each one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's final fixture before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been superb for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)

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

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has 7 goals in seven home games. He's the best striker choice for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the January window at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (home)

It is expected that the manager continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He was strongly at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and challenged him for playing time at centre-forward.

Substitutes
