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

Heading towards Gameweek 36 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

FPL notes: Shot-shy Villa rotate + is Richarlison worth a punt?

There were a few successful Gameweek 35 predictions, as Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.8m), Richarlison (£6.3m) and Cody Gakpo (£7.3m) all found the back of the net.

Ao Tanaka (£4.8m) and Bruno Guimaraes (£6.8m), on the Assists Imminent table, were indeed able to set up others.

    If you had Semenyo and just one 1 FT, would you sell him to Cherki?

    Or buy a Palace defender like Lacroix.

    Cheers

      Personally, I would steer clear of Palace.

    2. brianutd-why always we? 20

      A DGW player would be my choice. Lacroix

        Leaning that way myself

    Hey guys. One free transfer. Palmer to Saka?

    Raya
    O’Reilly - Gabriel - Hill - Van Hecke
    Semenyo - Fernandes - Grob - Palmer
    Haaland (TC) - DCL

    Dubravka - Rayan - Cash - Thiago

    1. Under my Cucurella
      • 10 Years

      As good a move as any

  6. Under my Cucurella
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    Worth doing Palmer Cucu > Saka Gab tonight to catch the Saka price rise?

    I would then only have to decide between the following for the 3rd FT and will do that closer to the deadline

    A: Semenyo > Cherki
    B: Pedro > Gyok
    C: Senesi > Munoz
    D: Justin > Lacroix

    Verb Darlow
    O'Reilly Cucu Senesi Hill Justin

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        For a hit? No chance

      Any help above for an old friend? 😉

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 13 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        DCL > Gyokeres is temping also. Definitely get Gyok for the Burnley game if you don’t this week.

      2. WVA
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        Thanks mate, A means starting Hill or Tav away at Fulham who normally score

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 15 days ago

          I was happy to start Tav but just looking at how few goals Fulham are conceding lately particularly at the Cottage.

          DCL > Gyokeres tempting me more now.

          1. WVA
            • 9 Years
            1 month, 15 days ago

            Yea not keen on the Bournemouth players one bit

  13. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    How long do you think you’d last in this pace if you were on the pitch in the Bayern PSG game?

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      2 minutes.
      It’s plenty btw.

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      Like to think I’d keep up for the walk-out to the team line-ups before KO..

    Semenyo > Cherki or Enzo > Saka not worth a minus 4 right?

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      not worthy

    2. Pablitto
      • 16 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      no, although from different reasons

  15. el polako
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    I bet Kompany is blasting NWA in the dressing room.

  16. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    Sensi was my highest scorer last GW and I had him benched

    Raya-(Darlow)
    Gabriel-O'Reilly-Munoz-(Sensi-Struijk)
    Saka-Palmer-BrunoF-Cherki-KDH
    Haaland(TC)-DCL(VC)-(Thiago)

    Play 1 of
    A - Sensi @ ful
    B - KDH@ cp

    1. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      Think play KDH still. Palace will probably rotate again and focused on Europe. Bournemouth tend to concede more away then at home so I’m not backing a clean sheet this week although Fulham have not scored many recently.

  17. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    Palmer & Semenyo > Saka & Cherki for free?

    Already have Gabriel & one more transfer, maybe for Strujik to CPL def…

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      I would definitely ales those moves bud.

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        Cheers Count…

  18. Count of Monte Hristo

    Bayern just not clicking tonight.

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      I hope they will.
      Their fans deserve it.
      Great non stop support.

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 13 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        Yeah they do have a great support. If they score early in the 2nd half that would be great.

  19. FPL Sanky
    • 2 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    Got 5 FT's. How do you like this move?

    Palmer + Bijol + Semenyo + Van HECKE to Saka + Munoz + Cherki + Saliba

    Current team is

    Verbruggen Darlow
    Van Hecke Gabriel Hill Bijol NOR
    Palmer Semenyo Tav Bruno Hinshelwood
    Haaland Pedro DCL

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      Lovely moves apart from Van Hecke (h) to Wolves. He outscores Saliba who is a 6 pointer at best.

      1. FPL Sanky
        • 2 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        Will play Verbruggen....prefer double ARS defense rather than double BRI

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 15 days ago

          Fair point. Calafiori over Saliba for added goal threat.

          1. FPL Sanky
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 15 days ago

            Cheers mate...Calafiori's mins are secured? Arteta can play MLS as well right.

    Hey all. 3FT 1.5 ITB.

    Verbruggen
    Gabriel, O’Reilly, Van Hecke
    Tavernier, Semenyo, Bruno, Palmer
    Haaland(TC), Pedro, DCL
    Darlow, Senesi, Hill, Gomez*

    Palmer to Saka seems obvious. Was set on Senesi to Lacroix and possibly chancing keeping Semenyo over transferring to Cherki as also need to ditch Gomez for someone this week or next, so if I do three moves this week and still have Gomez that move needs to be done next GW leaving only 1 FT for the final gameweek. So Palmer to Saka and one or two of the below. Thanks

    A) Senesi to Lacroix(Bench Tav)
    B) Semenyo to Cherki
    C) Gomez to Wilson/Hinshelwood or Cunha/Eze etc possible if I do B

    1. GE

    27 points behind in my ML. Which moves?

    1) Pedro and DCL -> Gyoekeres and Rich (-4)
    2) Palmer and Pedro -> Saka and Gyokeres (-4)
    3) Palmer -> Saka
    4) Palmer -> BrunoG

    1. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      3 think Pedro might do alright till the seasons end

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        Thanks, would you DCL -> Rich (-4)?

  23. WVA
    • 9 Years
    1 month, 15 days ago

    Semenyo not going to start?

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 15 days ago

      He will probably score a hattie now that I’ve transferred him out

      1. Bucket Man
        • 7 Years
        1 month, 15 days ago

        This. Reckon if I transfer out he scores. If I keep he won’t even start.

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 15 days ago

          You sell him and I will keep 😉

  25. WVA

    Who scores more points this GW?

    A. Lacroix
    B. Gyokeres

  28. Mr. O'Connell

    Luis Diaz gotta be one of the most frustrating footballers. Always needs that extra touch.

  29. Stranger Mings

    Apart from city is it either saka sarr or Rogers best gw36 pick?

      Villa are throwing games, would steer of Rogers.
