🔗 Share this article Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Picks to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek The major call in the FPL squad of the gameweek involves select zero Manchester City players - indeed, that includes Haaland! Our budget are needed to go all-in on Gunners assets as they welcome one of the most struggling teams in Premier League recent memory. Yes, Manchester City scored a total of 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but now they take on Crystal Palace, who have the second-best defensive record in the division for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in terms of xGC. And the Gunners home to Wolves is the sort of encounter you need to exploit - the best side in the league against one lacking of form, quality and confidence. This squad of the gameweek is selected based on current prices to fit within a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit chip. How did The Previous Lineup Fare? No captain return but strong hauls from Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Phil Foden (12) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance resulted in a huge eighty-three points total. Boom! FPL Lineup of the Week for Gameweek 16 Goalkeeper & Defenders Roefs, Sunderland, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home) This long-awaited derby in the top flight since 2016 is set to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it might be one of those tight matches that is full of tension but minimal clear chances. Which would render the Sunderland keeper, ranked third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a good pick. White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (h) An Arsenal defender is a essential pick this week. Wolverhampton have one goal away from home so far and one in their last six matches. White is a great offensive threat when he is given his opportunity. He started the past two at right-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defenders with 2 key passes, two attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7. Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (home) The Toffees are erratic so this selection is focused more on Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's upside. The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more chances (nineteen) than any other defensive player in the division. And he hasn't scored this season, having netted five goals the previous campaign. Diogo Dalot, United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (home) You shouldn't have high expectations for a Manchester United shutout - they have one all season - but Bournemouthgoals have dried up in the past two games. More importantly, the Portuguese defender has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as a wing-back in the last three fixtures. During that spell he's had four attempts, two big chances, one goal and one assist. He missed a cracking opportunity at Wolves on Monday night as well. Midfield Bukayo Saka (captain), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolves (home) This fixture against Wolves is too good to pass up and that makes Saka, the Gunners'best attacking player essential. Little statistical analysis required to support this pick. Manchester United had twenty-seven shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored 4 and might have had double that. The Gunners will be keen to attack. Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (home) One point behind Bruno Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Declan Rice is so consistent for the Gunners. More attacking this term, he's created more opportunities than any other Arsenal teammate (twenty-seven) and has five assists to his name. He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a chance to rotate his players. Bruno Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h) Fernandes might have replaced Semenyo as the essential FPL midfielder. Match-up proof, always a candidate for defensive contribution points and with multiple routes to points. Palmer, the Blues, £10.3m - the Toffees (home) This week's differential pick, Cole Palmer has his first ninety minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we know what an explosive FPL asset he can be. You sense that, as soon as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up. He missed the Blues'European 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 United (home) Leeds enter this game following two strong home results against the Blues and Liverpool, but on the road they have let in three goals for every one they've netted. This is probably the winger's final match before heading to the AFCON. He's been superb for Brentford this season, and has 5 goal contributions in his last three home matches. Forwards Igor Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (h) It's been a disappointing last few gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with only three FPL points in two games. Nevertheless, he's the second top scorer in the division and has 7 goals in 7 home games. He's the best striker choice this week and, with a kind run of games, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least. Hugo Ekitike, the Reds, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home) Surely the manager continues to start with the young striker, after his brace performance at Leeds. He was great at the beginning of the season and you wonder what he would have done had a rival striker not been signed and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.
