You’ve probably heard about Joe’s much-liked ‘Goals Imminent’ table. You might listen to his and Marc’s Fantasy Football Scout podcast of the same name. Now, Goals Imminent is here in article form!

Heading towards Gameweek 22 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), these Members Area statistics identify some underachieving players who look ‘due’ for a goal and/or assist.

Naturally, we’ll attempt to assess whether they’re unlucky, suffering a rare blip, or just aren’t particularly good.


LAST WEEK’S SUCCESSES

FPL new signings: Sesko 2

Not only did Benjamin Sesko (£7.2m) secure his first league goal since Gameweek 7, but he quickly bagged another.

David Brooks (£5.0m) featured on both tables and came off the bench to assist, the same return as backed-to-score Marcus Tavernier (£5.5m) and Yasin Ayari (£4.8m).

    Softest penalty I've seen in a while at Everton. Ref has had a stinker whole game so hardly surprising.

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      We got lucky.

  7. The Night Trunker.
    • 2 Years

    Crystal Palace shattered.

  8. Sir Michael Taker
    • 12 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    That's football for you. In the space of 9 months or so Palace's greatest day to one of the worst in their history

    Really strong lineup for Pep.
    Remarkable.

      Possible midweek rotation v Newcastle

      Semenyo straight in, wow

    Congrats to Macclesfield. Incredible achievement.

    I just can’t find the Everton game 🙁 . I have TNT subscription, but TNT 5 just doesn’t seem to exist on Sky.

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      I’ve searched all channels, sports, HD and tried voice search, but nothing

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        I couldn’t find it either. Macclesfield v Palace on about 4 channels.

    2. Mr. O'Connell

      Red button on the multi game screen

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Too late 🙁

  12. Atimis

    6 months, 21 days ago

    Folks getting Enzo or Palmer right now, not concerned about:

    1. Chelsea poor form
    2. Unknown roles under new coach - especially Enzo
    3. Congested calendar - fatigue and possible rotation
    4. Uninspiring record vs Brentford and their good form
    5. Palmer not showing signs of form

    ?

    1. boombaba
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Yes but done it anyway

    2. I have no Wirtz
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Definitely, very concerned. Understandably not everyone’s cup of tea, but sometimes you have to trust the quality of the players, who can conjure a goal out of nothing and still have bite. Also it’s a 6 week hold counting gw22-gw27

    If on WC would you keep VdV for west ham and Burnley and sell for timber
    Or just get timber now

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Keep and sell

    Waiting for pens...

    Has anyone considered WC24? Blanks and doubles are smaller these days and we can cumulate transfers. So handling them might be doable?

    1. Absolutely Muñozed
      6 months, 21 days ago

      who is getting double gw?

  15. Mr. O'Connell
    • 14 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Pickford had le Fee panenka written on his bottle

    1. The Bandit

    3. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

    Crazy! Hahaha.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Barry & Beto, not impossible to imagine, but I haven't ever seen this before.

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Yah, me neither!

      2. Mr. O'Connell
        • 14 Years
        6 months, 21 days ago

        Roefs odds on to save pens against both of those

  20. JBG
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Pep zero fcks given... Rodri, Cherki. Semenyo and Haaland playing XD

  21. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Foden rested

    1. Absolutely Muñozed
      6 months, 21 days ago

      or dropped?

  22. Prinzhorn
    • 5 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Who’s airing City game?

    1. JBG
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Etihad Airways

  23. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Have done Foden + O’Brien ➡ Fernandes + Richards for free as money was tight giving me -

    Verbruggen
    Gabriel - Richards - Van de Ven
    Saka - Palmer - Fernandes - Rogers - Gordon
    Haaland - Watkins

    John - Reinildo - Gudmundsson - Barnes

    0 m in the bank.

    Plan is to save GW 23 and do Gordon + Van de Ven ➡ Enzo + Chalobah in Gw 24.

    Thoughts? 🙂

    1. beerhockeyrock
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      6 months, 21 days ago

      Support, I have those players targeted as well...
      Trying to get some combo of (BrunoG or Enzo) + Chalobah + Fernandes for Cunha/Foden/Dorgu by GW 24

  24. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Pep looking like Andy Capp.

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Indeed.

    2. Four Letter Wirtz
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      and Exeter have Draco Malfoy in goal

  25. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    So Semenyo starts within a few days of the transfer...

    A goal would kick off his Man City career

  26. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Rodri with the second goal for Man City.

  27. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Ened Unal done 🙁

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      Enes... Sorry for typo. Unlucky for him.

  28. Absolutely Muñozed
    6 months, 21 days ago

    Is it ok to pick Reinildo over Alderete or Mukiele? Was Reinildo injured when he wasn't playing or was on the bench??

    1. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 months, 21 days ago

      AFCON

  29. Mighty Duck
    • 1 Year
