Selecting the Three Arsenal Players to Select v Wolves? FPL Team of the Gameweek

The key move in this FPL lineup of the week involves go with no Manchester City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

Our funds are required to go all-in on Arsenal players as they face at home one of the most struggling teams in Premier League history.

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

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the kind of fixture you must exploit - the leading team in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and self-belief.

The team of the week is picked based on current FPL valuations to fit within a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

How did Last Week's Team Do?

The captain didn't deliver but strong points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), plus a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall bench cameo led to a huge eighty-three points total. Boom!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is likely to be loud, fiery, feisty - and it may prove to be one of those games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid pick.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal on the road so far and a single goal in their past 6 matches.

White is a excellent offensive threat when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two at full-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this selection is more about Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.

Chelsea have the fourth-strongest defensive record while Cucurella has created more chances (19) than any other defender in the league.

And he is yet to score yet, having netted five times the previous campaign.

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

You can't have great hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have just one this entire campaign - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the last two games.

More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, two big chances, one goal and an assist. He also missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night too.

Midfield

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

This fixture against Wolves is too good to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, netted four and could have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

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

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

With more license to attack this season, he's generated more chances than any Arsenal player (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager could see this as a opportunity to rest his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker might have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Match-up proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several routes to FPL returns.

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a lengthy layoff and we know what an explosive fantasy player he can be.

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

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

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

Leeds United enter this match off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have conceded three times for each one they've netted.

This is probably Ouattara final fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been superb for Brentford this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his past three fixtures at home.

Strikers

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds (home)

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with only 3 FPL points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 strikes in seven fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice this week and, with a favourable run of games, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

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

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his brace haul at Leeds.

He was strongly at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he could have achieved had a rival striker not been signed and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.

The Bench

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