🔗 Share this article Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Assets to Choose v Wolves? FPL Squad of the Week The big call in the FPL squad of the gameweek involves opt for zero City assets - indeed, that includes Erling Haaland! Our funds is essential to invest heavily on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the poorest teams in English top-flight recent memory. It's true, Manchester City scored a total of 5 times on their last away trip, but now they take on Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC. And Arsenal home to Wolves is the type of encounter you must attack - the best team in the league against one devoid of form, technical ability and confidence. This squad of the gameweek is chosen using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were playing a Free Hit. How did The Previous Lineup Perform? No captain return but high points from Fernandes (eighteen), Ruben Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (nine), plus a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a massive eighty-three points. Success! FPL Squad of the Gameweek for Fixture 16 Defensive Picks Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (h) The first Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is likely to be loud, fiery, combative - and it may prove to be one of those matches that is all drama but minimal clear chances. Which would make Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a good pick. Ben White, the Gunners, £5.2m - Wolves (home) An Gunners defender is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolves have just one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past 6 fixtures. White is a excellent attacking option when he is given his opportunity. Having started the past two at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defensive players with 2 big chances created, 2 attempts inside the area and an expected goal involvement of 0.7. Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h) The Toffees are inconsistent so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential. Chelsea have the fourth-best defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any other defensive player in the league. And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five times last season. Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h) You shouldn't have great hopes for a Manchester United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have dried up in the last two matches. More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three games. In those matches he's had four attempts, two clear opportunities, one goal and one assist. He also missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday too. Midfield Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (home) This fixture against Wolverhampton is too juicy to ignore and that makes Saka, Arsenaltop offensive asset essential. Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. United had 27 attempts at Wolves on Monday night, scored four and could have had double that. Arsenal will be rubbing their hands. Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h) Just a single point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so reliable for Arsenal. More attacking this term, he's created more chances than any Arsenal teammate (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. Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h) Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential FPL midfield asset. Match-up proof, consistently a shout for defensive contribution points and with several ways to FPL returns. Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - Everton (home) This gameweek's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a long injury and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being. You sense that, as soon as he has a single strong performance, fantasy coaches will be flocking to bring him in. He was absent for ChelseaEuropean defeat at Atalanta, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for Everton. Dango Ouattara, the Bees, £6m - Leeds (home) Leeds United enter this match following two strong home results against Chelsea and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three goals for each one they've netted. This is probably Ouattara last fixture before heading to the AFCON. He's been superb for Brentford this term, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 fixtures at home. Strikers Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (home) It has been a frustrating last few gameweeks for the striker FPL managers, with just 3 FPL points in two games. Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He's the prime forward option this week and, with a favourable fixture list, you can select and hold up until the end of January at the very least. Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (h) It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace haul at Leeds. He performed strongly at the start of the campaign and you wonder what he could have achieved had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for minutes at centre-forward.
