Goals + assists imminent! Who is ‘due’ in FPL Gameweek 35?

Joe’s highly popular ‘Goals Imminent’ table from the Members Area is the basis for this weekly article.

Heading towards Gameweek 35 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), we try to identify some more 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

Liverpool v Bournemouth team news: Ekitike, Wirtz, Frimpong + Kerkez start

Last week’s lists ended up being shorter because six teams were absent and, as a result, there was very little success.

Nobody from the goals or assists table did as predicted, although Florian Wirtz (£8.3m) decided to score rather than set one up.

GOALS IMMINENT

The first table shows players who’ve accumulated at least nine shots over their last four matches, but scored no more than one goal.

    Mbeumo was one of the worst Fpl transfers of all time.

    Crazy Bruno still has an ownership below 50%.

      Overall? Not that crazy given I would bet more than 50% are dead teams.

        Overall, yes. If Palmer had the season Bruno is having, even the dead teams would come alive for a bit and he'd be 70% owned. Bruno flies relatively under the radar for some reason, at least among the casuals.

            99% among good managers. The only reason not to own him is if you take an active punt hoping to make a late rank surge if he flops.

              Hes not exactly been explosive its just nobody else in the game does anything at all on a regular basis bar defcon. An assist from Brentford home is not that scary to take on and his non-pen goal threat is next to non-existent but there is nothing else you can rely on. Palmer has 5 non penalty goal involvements irl this season lol.

          I agree he was good enough from GW26-30 when he came back from injury & they need his goals now more than ever - worth a punt I think if chasing

      I won't get any player from Palace for the double but if I did I would probably rather look for Munoz, Sarr or Mateta

        Have to disagree there.

        They just don't have the fixtures to warrant getting an attacker, especially with the question mark over Sarr and Mateta's minutes taken into consideration.

        As dull as it sounds, the defcon defenders are likely to do better.

          I agree ! That 's why I won't get any Palace player (if they concede against City, it s basically a single gameweek for the defensive assets, Munoz being the only one of interest for me)

    Afternoon all,

    Would appreciate any thoughts on this wildcard draft and plan. Will be BB in 36:

    Verbruggen
    Struijk / O'Reilly / Gabriel
    Cherki / Fernandes / Saka / Okafor
    Thiago / Gyokeres / Haaland

    Henderson / Sarr / Lacroix / Porro

    GW 36: Okafor & Thiago > Tielemans & Welbeck
    GW 37: Roll
    GW 38: 2 FT's for final day

      You dont like Okafor vs Tottenham?

      I would go Calwert-Lwein instead of Thiago and maybe get him in after DGW
      Burnley(h) + Tottenham(a) or Welbeck better than Thiago If you want him for 36.

      Either would save one FT for you

      Im 50/50 to go double Arsenal defnce or even triple Arsenal defnce. Their last fixtures scream for clean sheets and I dont trust them to score many. They look very scared going forward at the moment

    TC36 Haaland/O'Reilly locked.
    Though I'm here wondering if the Palace double is even really worth using a few FTs(or a hit or two) to bring in their players. Everton at home is okay-ish, though City away is hardly exciting. Might go without Palace or just one player max.

        Is it better to regret risking and failing rather than not getting Palace players? Depends on your alternative players.
