Which Top 3 Gunners Players to Choose v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek
The big move in the FPL lineup of the gameweek is to go with zero City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!
Our budget is needed to invest heavily on Gunners assets as they welcome one of the most struggling teams in Premier League recent memory.
Yes, Manchester City scored in five goals on their last away trip, but this time they face Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defensive record in the division for goals conceded and fourth-best in relation of xGC.
And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the type of fixture you just have to target - the best side in the division against one lacking of momentum, quality and self-belief.
This team of the gameweek is picked based on current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.
How did The Previous Lineup Fare?
The captain didn't deliver but strong scores from Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Phil Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a massive 83 points. Boom!
Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16
Goalkeeper & Defenders
Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (home)
This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight since 2016 is going to be noisy, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those tight games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.
Which would make the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good option.
White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal on the road this season and one in their past 6 fixtures.
White is a great offensive threat when he gets his chance. Having started the past two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and leads the charts in that time among Arsenal defensive players with two key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.
Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)
Everton are inconsistent so this pick is focused more on Chelseadefensive solidity and Cucurella potential.
Chelsea have the fourth-best defence while Cucurella has generated more opportunities (nineteen) than any defender in the league.
And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five goals last season.
Dalot, United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)
You can't have great hopes for a United clean sheet - they have one all season - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the past two games.
More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very attacking positions as left wing-back in the last 3 games.
In those matches he's had 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and an assist. He missed a great opportunity at Wolves on Monday too.
Midfield Picks
Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)
This game against Wolves is too juicy to ignore and that makes Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.
Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday, scored 4 and could have had double that.
The Gunners will be licking their lips.
Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home)
Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is incredibly reliable for Arsenal.
More advanced this season, he's generated more opportunities than any Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to show for it.
He's also the most reliable for minutes as Mikel Arteta might view this as a chance to rest his squad.
Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)
The Portuguese playmaker may have replaced Antoine Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.
Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple ways to FPL returns.
Cole Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)
This week's differential pick, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a long injury and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.
You sense that, as quickly as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.
He was absent for ChelseaEuropean defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be well-rested for the Toffees.
Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (home)
Leeds United come into this game off the back of two great home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but on the road they have conceded three times for every one they've scored.
This is probably the winger's last fixture before departing for the AFCON.
He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has five goal contributions in his past three fixtures at home.
Forwards
Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h)
It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only three points in two games.
Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 home games. He's the prime striker choice this week and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the January window at the very least.
Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h)
Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace haul at Leeds.
He was great at the beginning of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and challenged him for playing time at the number nine role.
Substitutes
- Dubravka, the Clarets, £4m - the Cottagers ({h|home
