Selecting the Three Gunners Picks to Pick v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The major decision in this Fantasy Premier League squad of the gameweek is to select no Manchester City players - indeed, even Haaland!

Our funds is essential to load up on Arsenal players as they welcome one of the worst sides in English top-flight history.

Yes, City smashed in 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but this time they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal home to Wolves is the sort of fixture you must exploit - the best team in the division against one devoid of momentum, quality and self-belief.

The squad of the week is chosen using current valuations to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Lineup Do?

No captain return but strong points from Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo produced a huge eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, feisty - and it might be one of those games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would render Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent option.

White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Arsenal defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their past six fixtures.

White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. Having started the past two games at full-back, had a 14-point haul against the Bees and leads the way in that time among Arsenal defenders with two big chances created, two attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

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

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (19) than any defender in the division.

And he hasn't scored this season, after scoring five goals the previous campaign.

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

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

Crucially, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's taken 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfield Picks

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

This game against Wolves is too good to pass up and that makes Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop attacking player essential.

No stats required to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, netted 4 and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so consistent for the Gunners.

More advanced 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 surest bet for minutes as the manager could see this as a chance to rest his players.

Fernandes, United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfielder.

Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with several ways to FPL returns.

Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This gameweek's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

He missed ChelseaChampions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.

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

Leeds come into this game following two strong home performances against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

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

He's been outstanding for Brentford this season, and has 5 attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.

Forwards

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (h)

It has been a disappointing last few weeks for the striker FPL managers, with only three FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the top forward option this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold up until the January window at the very least.

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

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

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.

Subs' Bench
