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.

        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

        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

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

            21 hours, 18 mins ago

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

            Too late 🙁

        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

          Yes but done it anyway

        2. I have no Wirtz
            21 hours, 5 mins 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

          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?

              who is getting double gw?

              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? 🙂

                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

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

              A goal would kick off his Man City career

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