Which Top 3 Arsenal Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Team of the Gameweek

One major decision in the FPL team of the week involves opt for zero Manchester City players - and yes, even Erling Haaland!

Our funds are essential to load up on Arsenal assets as they host one of the most struggling teams in Premier League recent memory.

It's true, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 goals on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal home to Wolves is the sort of match-up you just have to attack - the best side in the division against one devoid of form, quality and confidence.

This team of the gameweek is chosen using current prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Lineup Do?

The captain didn't deliver but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a monster eighty-three points total. Boom!

Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be loud, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little clear chances.

A scenario that would render Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid option.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal on the road this season and one in their last six fixtures.

White is a great attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the past two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with two key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

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

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is more about the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's upside.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defence while he has generated more chances (19) than any other defensive player in the division.

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

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

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

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been getting in some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.

During that spell he's taken four attempts, 2 big chances, one goal and an assist. He missed a cracking chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

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

Little statistical analysis required to back this up. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and could have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

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

Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is so consistent for the Gunners.

More advanced this season, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for game time as the manager could see this as a opportunity to rest his squad.

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

Fernandes might have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder.

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

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

This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we know what an high-scoring FPL asset he is capable of being.

You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for ChelseaChampions League loss at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United enter this match following two great home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

This is likely the winger's final match before heading to the AFCON.

He has been superb for Brentford this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his last 3 fixtures at home.

Attack

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)

It has been a frustrating couple of weeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at least.

Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds.

He performed well at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not arrived and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.

Substitutes

• Martin Dubravka, Burnley, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
