Selecting the Three Gunners Assets to Select v Wolverhampton? Fantasy Premier League Squad of the Gameweek

The key move in this FPL lineup of the gameweek is to select zero Manchester City assets - indeed, even Erling Haaland!

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

Yes, City smashed in 5 goals on their last away fixture, but this time they meet Palace, a side with the second-strongest defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-best in relation of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolverhampton is the type of encounter you must target - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, technical ability and self-belief.

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

How did The Previous Squad Do?

No captain return but big hauls from Fernandes (eighteen), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), along with a fortunate 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a monster eighty-three points total. Success!

FPL Lineup of the Gameweek for Gameweek 16

Defensive Picks

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

The first Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League for eight years is going to be noisy, fiery, combative - and it might be one of those tight matches that is all drama but little goalmouth action.

Which would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good shout.

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

An Arsenal defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have just one goal away from home so far and one in their last six fixtures.

White is a great attacking option when he gets his chance. He started the past two games at right-back, registered a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, two shots in the box and an xGI of 0.7.

Cucurella, the Blues, £6.2m - Everton (h)

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

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

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

Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home)

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

Crucially, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly attacking positions as a wing-back in the past three fixtures.

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

Midfield Picks

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

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

No stats required to back this up. United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, netted 4 and might have had double that.

Arsenal will be licking their lips.

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

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

More advanced this term, he's generated more opportunities than any other Gunners teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the surest bet for minutes as Mikel Arteta could see this as a opportunity to rotate his squad.

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

Fernandes may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive contribution points and with several routes to FPL returns.

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

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

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be rushing to bring him in.

He was absent for ChelseaEuropean loss at Atalanta, but that was the club easing him back carefully so he should be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United enter this game following two strong home performances against the Blues and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for every one they've netted.

This is probably the winger's last fixture before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He has been outstanding for Brentford this term, and has five goal contributions in his last three fixtures at home.

Attack

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

It has been a disappointing last few weeks for Thiago owners, with just 3 FPL points in two games.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has 7 goals in 7 fixtures at home. He's the top forward option this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold up until the end of January at least.

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

Surely Arne Slot keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

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

Subs' Bench

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