Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Assets to Choose v Wolverhampton? FPL Team of the Gameweek

One major decision in the FPL team of the gameweek is to select zero City players - and yes, that includes Haaland!

Our budget are essential to load up on Gunners assets as they host among the poorest sides in English top-flight history.

Yes, Manchester City smashed a total of 5 times on their most recent away fixture, but now they face Palace, who have the second-strongest defensive record in the league for goals conceded and fourth-strongest in relation of expected goals conceded.

And the Gunners home to Wolves is the sort of fixture you need to target - the top team in the league against one lacking of form, quality and self-belief.

The team of the week is selected using current valuations to stay under a £100m limit, as if you were using a Free Hit chip.

Performance of The Previous Squad Fare?

The captain didn't deliver but big hauls from Bruno Fernandes (18), Ruben Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky sixteen-point Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall substitute appearance produced a huge 83 points total. Success!

Defensive Picks

Robin Roefs, Sunderland, goalkeeper, £4.7m - Newcastle United (home)

This long-awaited Tyne-Wear derby in the top flight for eight years is set to be loud, passionate, feisty - and it could be one of those tight games that is all drama but minimal clear chances.

A scenario that would make Roefs, third in the goalkeeper scoring charts, a decent shout.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Gunners defensive asset is a essential pick for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal scored on the road so far and one in their past six fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent attacking option when he gets his opportunity. He started the last two at full-back, had a fourteen-point return against the Bees and tops the way in that time among Arsenal defensive players with 2 key passes, 2 attempts inside the area and an xGI of 0.7.

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

Everton are erratic so this pick is focused more on the Blues'defence and the Spaniard's potential.

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

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

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

You shouldn't have high expectations for a United clean sheet - they have one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'goals have slowed down in the past two matches.

More importantly, Dalot has been occupying some very advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, a goal and one assist. He missed a great chance at Wolverhampton on Monday night too.

Midfielders

Saka (C), Arsenal, £10.2m - Wolves (h)

This fixture against Wolves is too good to ignore and that renders Saka, Arsenalbest attacking player a must-have.

No stats required to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolves on Monday, netted four and could have had twice as many.

The Gunners will be keen to attack.

Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolves (h)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the midfield scoring list, Rice is incredibly reliable for the Gunners.

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

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager might view this as a chance to rest his squad.

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

The Portuguese playmaker may have taken over from Semenyo as the must-own FPL midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a candidate for defensive bonus points and with multiple routes to FPL returns.

Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This gameweek's punt, Palmer has his first 90 minutes under his belt after a long layoff and we know what an explosive FPL asset he can be.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to sign him up.

He missed the Blues'European defeat at the Italian side, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for Everton.

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

Leeds enter this match following two strong home performances against the Blues and Liverpool, but away from home they have let in three times for every one they've scored.

This is probably Ouattara last fixture before departing for the AFCON.

He's been superb for the Bees this term, and has 5 goal contributions in his past 3 home matches.

Forwards

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)

It has been a disappointing last few weeks for the striker owners, with only 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the league and has 7 goals in seven home games. He is the prime forward option for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can set and forget until the end of January at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton (h)

It is expected that Arne Slot keeps faith with the young striker, after his two-goal performance at Leeds.

He performed strongly at the beginning of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for playing time at the number nine role.
