Selecting the Top 3 Arsenal Assets to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week
One key move in this FPL team of the gameweek involves select no City assets - and yes, even Haaland!
The funds is needed to invest heavily on Gunners players as they host among the poorest sides in Premier League history.
Yes, City smashed a total of five goals on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Palace, who have the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.
And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the sort of fixture you just have to exploit - the top side in the league against one lacking of momentum, quality and confidence.
This squad of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit.
Performance of Last Week's Team Perform?
No captain return but high hauls from Bruno Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo led to a monster eighty-three points. Boom!
FPL Team of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16
Defensive Picks
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h)
This long-awaited derby in the Premier League for eight years is likely to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.
A scenario that would make Roefs, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid option.
Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have one goal away from home this season and one in their last 6 matches.
Ben White is a great attacking option when he gets his chance. Having started the past two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)
Everton are inconsistent so this pick is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.
Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while he has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defensive player in the division.
And he hasn't scored yet, having netted five goals the previous campaign.
Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)
You can't have great expectations for a United shutout - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have slowed down in the last two matches.
More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some very advanced roles as a wing-back in the last 3 games.
During that spell he's had four attempts, 2 big chances, a goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday too.
Midfield Picks
Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)
This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to ignore and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.
No stats required to support this pick. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted four and could have had twice as many.
The Gunners will be keen to attack.
Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (h)
Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.
More advanced this season, he's generated more chances than any Gunners player (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this as a chance to rotate his players.
Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)
Fernandes might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfielder.
Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive contribution points and with multiple routes to points.
Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)
This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.
You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.
He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team easing him back carefully so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.
Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds United (h)
Leeds United enter this game off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three goals for each one they've scored.
This is probably the winger's last 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 past three fixtures at home.
Forwards
Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (h)
It has been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for the striker owners, with only 3 FPL points in two games.
Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven home games. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget up until the January window at least.
Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)
Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace performance 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 been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.
The Bench
