Which Three Gunners Assets to Pick v Wolves? FPL Lineup of the Gameweek

One major move in the FPL team of the week involves select zero City assets - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our funds are required to load up on Gunners assets as they welcome one of the worst teams in English top-flight recent memory.

Yes, Manchester City smashed in 5 goals on their most recent away trip, but now they meet Crystal Palace, who have the second-strongest defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-strongest in relation of xGC.

And Arsenal home to Wolverhampton is the type of match-up you must exploit - the top side in the league against one lacking of momentum, quality and self-belief.

This lineup of the gameweek is picked using current prices to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Team Do?

No captain return but big points from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (fourteen), Foden (twelve) and James Tarkowski (9), along with a lucky sixteen-point Dewsbury-Hall bench appearance produced a massive eighty-three points. Boom!

FPL Lineup of the Week for Fixture 16

Goalkeeper & Defenders

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

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is going to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it could be one of those tight games that is full of tension but little goalmouth action.

A scenario that would make the Sunderland keeper, third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a decent pick.

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

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick this week. Wolves have one goal on the road this season and one in their past 6 matches.

White is a great attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two games at right-back, had a fourteen-point haul against Brentford and leads the charts in that period among Gunners defensive players with two key passes, two shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - the Toffees (home)

The Toffees are unpredictable so this pick is more about the Blues'defence and Cucurella upside.

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

And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

Diogo Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - Bournemouth (h)

You shouldn't have high hopes for a United shutout - they have one all season - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the last two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been getting in some incredibly attacking positions as left wing-back in the last three fixtures.

During that spell he's taken 4 attempts, two clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfielders

Bukayo Saka (captain), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (home)

This fixture against Wolverhampton is too tempting to pass up and that renders Bukayo Saka, the Gunners'top offensive asset a must-have.

Little statistical analysis needed to support this pick. Manchester United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday, scored 4 and might have had double that.

The Gunners will be rubbing their hands.

Declan Rice, the Gunners, £7.1m - Wolves (home)

One point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly consistent for Arsenal.

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

He's also the surest bet for minutes as the manager might view this fixture as a chance to rest his squad.

Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - the Cherries (h)

Fernandes may have taken over from Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

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

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

This week's punt, Cole Palmer has his first full 90 minutes since returning after a lengthy injury and we know what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, fantasy coaches will be rushing to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'Champions League defeat at the Italian side, but that was the team managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

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

Leeds United enter this game off the back of two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but away from home they have conceded three goals for each one they've netted.

This is likely the winger's last fixture before heading to the AFCON.

He's been superb for the Bees this season, and has five attacking returns in his last 3 home matches.

Strikers

Thiago, Brentford, £6.9m - Leeds (home)

It's been a disappointing couple of gameweeks for Thiago owners, with just 3 FPL points in two games.

However, he's the second-highest top scorer in the league and has seven strikes in 7 fixtures at home. He's the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold up until the January window at least.

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

Surely the manager keeps faith with the promising Frenchman, after his two-goal haul at Leeds United.

He performed strongly at the start of the season and you can't help but think what he would have done had Alexander Isak not been signed and competed with him for minutes at the number nine role.

The Bench

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