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).

    Haaland cant even score against Exeter these days. Time to remove him I think.

      Exactly and bring in Salah

    Has a team had a worse striker duo in the prem than Beto and Barry? lol

    Foden and O'Reilly not playing this game is very bad for them. Because it means they are now most likely playing midweek.

    Who would you sell? . Have 4 City

    O'Reilly

        Cheers. Yeah his stats don't look great vs Exeter . Probably won't have the free role at City. Shame

        • 8 Years
        19 hours, 53 mins ago

        He's one of about 7 players I've bought then they stopped getting points so I may rage him out regardless lol

    3. Scapegoat Salah

      2. I have no Wirtz

      Don’t understand why Ashley Barnes doesn’t get more gametime in prem, always seems to score when he starts and has a good record in the prem

      1. BeaversWithAttitude

        I think you mean Harvey.

          19 hours, 44 mins ago

          Why is Haaland even starting in a game like this, madness

          1. _Ninja_
            • 15 Years
            19 hours, 27 mins ago

            City were knocked out the cup by league 1 Wigan before so making sure it doesnt happen again

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              19 hours, 26 mins ago

              No need to risk Haaland imo

              1. Scapegoat Salah
                • 9 Years
                19 hours, 26 mins ago

                Plus he needs a rest, played bare 90 mins this season

                1. The Bandit

                  19 hours, 23 mins ago

          19 hours, 9 mins ago

          Who do you choose as City attackers

          Foden
          Semenyo
          Doku
          Cherki

          Only 2/3 can play at once

          1. Snoop Udogie Dogg
            • 5 Years
            19 hours, 8 mins ago

            you don't, I'm getting rid

          2. Scapegoat Salah
            • 9 Years
            19 hours, 3 mins ago

            Semenyo was originally a striker right? I remember him as a 4.5m forward on fpl.

            So some are suggesting he may play upfront to give Haaland rest here and there
