Selecting the Three Arsenal Assets to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Week

The big move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week involves go with zero City players - indeed, even Haaland!

Our budget is needed to invest heavily on Arsenal players as they face at home among the worst sides in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, City scored a total of five goals on their last away fixture, but this time they take on Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the division for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the type of encounter you just have to exploit - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

The team of the week is chosen using current prices to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit chip.

Performance of Last Week's Lineup Fare?

No captain return but high points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance led to a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Squad of the Week for Gameweek 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

Which would render Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a solid pick.

White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

An Arsenal defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal scored away from home so far and one in their past 6 fixtures.

White is a fantastic offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. He started the past two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)

The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and Cucurella potential.

The London club have the fourth-best defensive record while Cucurella has created more chances (nineteen) than any defender in the league.

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

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

You can't have great expectations for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one all season - but Bournemouthscoring have dried up in the past two games.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the last three games.

In those matches he's had four shots, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolverhampton on Monday night as well.

Midfielders

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

This fixture against Wolves is too tempting to ignore and that makes Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player a must-have.

No stats needed to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's created more opportunities than any Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this fixture as a chance to rotate his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Antoine Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to points.

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home)

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a long layoff and we know what an high-scoring fantasy player he is capable of being.

You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for the Blues'European defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he should be well-rested for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this match following two strong home performances against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.

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

He has been superb for Brentford this season, and has five attacking returns in his past 3 home matches.

Strikers

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

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

Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the best forward option for this round and, with a kind run of games, you can set and forget up until the end of January at the very least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot continues to start with the promising striker, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He was great at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for minutes at centre-forward.

The Bench
