Who are the best West Ham players to sign for Double Gameweek 24?

West Ham assets have been largely overlooked in the build-up to Double Gameweek 24.

With Liverpool and their host of options for the Triple Captain chip dominating the debate, the Hammers have slipped under the radar.

The question is whether or not David Moyes’ men deserve to stay there.

We are answering that question in this latest article, comparing the Hammers under their new/old manager against Manuel Pellegrini’s start to 2019/20, as well as ranking the Hammers’ best assets against the rest of the league.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those with valid packages will be able to access it in full.

Has Moyes improved West Ham?

    Does anyone actually know if Rico or Kelly is more likely to keep starting?
    Neither? Both? Thanks

      Doesn't matter. I'm gonna lose both in a few weeks anyway.

        I will bury one in the bench if both miss out, just wondering if there's a clear candidate to get rid of.. Right now Rico is going with Lloyd Kelly back and Bou woeful while Palace sometimes can defend. Word is Ward takes Kelly's place though

          Yes. I lost Rico today. His uncertain starts and the fact he plays for the worst team made it quite easy.

        Tempted by Lascelles from next week mate?

          Yes. Could do Kelly > Lascelles but I have money and could get Holgate even.

    LAMELA....Thoughts?

    1. B Sharp

      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      If money was no option, would you take him over the likes of lo celso?

    2. Fpl_Juggernaut
      • 4 Years

      Would stay clear of spurs at the moment.. Look toothless

        Cheers. Know what u mean I think hes got a team going there now though. Bit of time

    Greenwood's got to start against Burnley on Wednesday right?

    1. Reiger
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Would think so

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years

      Maybe. Ole may give lingard and James another go though

    3. Throwback
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Would guess so

  4. Davidwes
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Richarlison replacement?
    Snodgrass, martial?

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Would punt on martial. Good fixtures.

  5. DGW
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    45 points behind cash places in ML. Would you gamble on low ownership Firmino, or double defence?
    1FT and 3.1ITB.

    Guaita
    TAA · Soy · Lundstram
    Maddison · Mane · KDB · Martial
    Vardy · Ings · Tammy
    (Button, Doucoure, Kabasele, Rico)

    a) Tammy to Firmino
    b) Rico to Robbo
    c) Rico to VVD
    d) Maddison + Tammy to Salah +

    1. DGW
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      ...
      d) Maddison + Tammy to Salah + 5.7 (-4)
      e) Martial + Tammy to Salah + 6.2 (-4)

      Input appreciated!

    The Review - GW 23

    Greetings everyone! Struggling with your transfer and your triple captaincy choices? The Review is back to hopefully help you make some informed decisions before the first double gameweek of the season:

    1) I think it is only fair that we start with Liverpool given all the double gameweek hysteria. I begin from the defence where it is safe to say that Liverpool’s defensive numbers off late have been nothing short of exemplary. Over the past 5 GW’s, Liverpool’s defence is ranked best for shots conceded in the box and xGc (expected goals conceded). Moreover, over this period, they are the only team in the PL to average less than one big chance conceded per game whereas all the other teams in the PL have been conceding big chances at a far more regular clip. This suggests that a double up on the Liverpool defence could also be an effective strategy based on the VORP concept.

    2) So, this begs the question, who are the defenders to go for? Trent picks himself as the go to explosive defensive option and I think Robertson has a very solid case if you are looking to double up. Since GW 19, Robertson has been sharing set pieces with Trent and this has had an encouraging impact on Robertson’s creativity. Robertson is now averaging ≈1.8 chances created per game (compared to ≈1.2 previously) and ≈0.6 big chances created per game (compared to ≈0.3 previously) which also means that Robertson is second only to Trent for chances created and big chances created for all PL defenders over this period. Furthermore, after Trent, he is second of all Liverpool defenders for minutes per baseline bonus over this period too meaning that he is likely to get a share of the bonus if Liverpool are to keep a clean sheet.

    3) Salah and Mane are on paper the obvious triple captaincy candidates and for good reason too. Liverpool are the in-form team in the PL with the PL for now being their priority, and have little reason to chop and change their combination. Their midfielders are the standout options, and they get extra points per goal and clean sheet which makes them more explosive. Liverpool are probably the only big side Wolves haven’t figured out how to play while West Ham vs Liverpool (particularly if without Fabianski) is a goal glut waiting to happen. Liverpool have on average scored ≈3.4 goals per game over their 5 most recent PL games vs West Ham and West Ham sit top for big chances conceded at home this season.

    4) Which one of the two you decide to triple captain depends on what kind of FPL manager you are. Salah has shown more recent form of late and is undeniably the undisputed FPL king while playing at home, but away from home his numbers are far from impressive. This season he has averaged ≈166 minutes per big chance away from home (compared to ≈73 at home) while Mane has averaged ≈97 minutes per big chance away from home (compared to ≈75 at home) which bodes well for Mane given that Liverpool play both their games away. However, Salah has a higher average position, the safety net of penalties behind him and is averaging better for minutes per shots inside the box than Mane in away games (≈33 for Salah compared to Mane’s ≈41).

    5) If you are looking for a wildcard pick in the Liverpool attack, then Firmino might be your man. At ≈89 mins per big chance away from home, he actually averages better than both Salah and Mane for goal threat away. This theory that Firmino comes into his own away from home is further supported by the evidence that his minutes per shots inside the box is ≈33, which is on par with Salah and better than that of Mane.

    6) Moving on to West Ham, there are not too many options to speak of. Ever since Moyes has taken over, Felipe Andersen was showing signs of renewed confidence and looked to be thriving in the #10 role but now appears to be an injury doubt. Haller is the only one worth considering, as he has been averaging one big chance per game since Moyes has taken over and can consider himself unlucky not to have scored. Defensively they are still all over the place, having conceded 8 big chances in the past 2 games yet they have been fortunate to have conceded just twice. Fixtures after the double gameweek aren’t very kind too, so no West Ham asset looks particularly appealing for now.

    7) In my articles this season, I have time and again emphasized on how impressive Leicester’s defensive numbers have been. Their form this season was built on a solid defensive foundation hence it comes as no surprise that the sudden collapse of their defensive numbers has coincided with their loss of form. Since GW 18, Leicester have conceded ≈9.67 shots inside the box per game (vs ≈5.94 pre-GW 18) and ≈2.83 big chances per game (vs ≈1.29 pre-GW 18).

    8) Amidst the double gameweek frenzy, it is important not to ignore the remarkable form of Dominic Calvert Lewin. Ever since Carlo Ancelotti has taken over, he is ranked best for shots inside the box and big chances of all players in the game. Everton are only second to Liverpool and Man City for xG (expected goals scored) in this period which reflects their upturn in goal threat hence with 3 more favorable fixtures on the horizon, Calvert Lewin at £6m could be an amazing bargain.

        Yep Salah TC
        He is fit
        He is fresh
        He is on pens
        Liverpool still unbeaten and still wanting the points to secure title.
        He is playing in a goalhanging role.

        All the stars align imo...

          At £5.2m he's a low risk option, but I think I'd rather Haller or no one from West Ham.

          Or would you wait for maybe for favourable fixtures in a few weeks?

          What are people's thoughts about WC?? Tempted to trigger it tomorrow after the first games as I have about 4 or 5 definite transfers I want to make sooner rather than later, and the two weeks until next GW will give time to tinker and catch price rises where applicable.

          Or is saving for future team changes around DGW and BGW more effective?

            No player tomorrow?

            SHU vs MANC will be good I guess. AVL vs WAT will probably be open as well.

                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Jimmy for Holgate. Nothing much between Soy & Lundy but Lundstram plays a more advance role

                    I wouldn't give up on Raul or Soy just yet.

                      Only thing with Jim is with those fixtures not sure I want a Wolves double.

              Best Liverpool midfielder under 8.7m? Already got Mane, but Richarlison's injury scuppering my plans

                Defender for that price range Trent or VVD are the go to

                  But I want to get rid of Richarlison

                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Take a hit this week. Most likely chance to recoup it is with two fixtures.

                      Thanks, Camzy, looking the likeliest scenario

                    The budget Liverpool mids aren't usually where the points are, if a midfielder take a punt on Noble?

              Do you think the fact that the prem race will be over by the later DGW's make this week the best time to TC or are you holding out for a TC with more attractive fixtures (idk home matches?)

              Maupay, Aguero, DCL

              4.0 - Rico, Kabasele, Dendonkey

              Nothing is worth a hit here right? 3rd / 4th defender spot is a little weak but should be alright for a couple more. Anyone know if Kabasele has lost his spot?

              Anfield's homeboy

              Sadio Mane has a history of scoring most of his league goals at home. But is his tendency to do that big enough to warrant FPL managers' attention?

              League goals since joining Liverpool 16/17: 56

              Home: 40 (71%)
              Away: 16 (29%)

              Since last season 18/19 : 33

              Home: 25 (76%)
              Away: 8 (24%)

              I realize goals scored home/away is a very simple way of looking at it. But sometimes simple can be beautiful. In fact Sadio has never managed to score more than 4 away goals in a Premier league season(!)

              That's surely about to change though - he has already matched that this season (7 home, 4 away). Instead Salah has been the one having troubles on the road scoring only once (9 home, 1 away).

              Considering Liverpool play away twice in DGW24 - should we look to another Liverpool player for captaincy? Is Trent the best option? Could Salah be due some away goals? Interested to hear your thoughts!

              (when it comes to assists Mane tends to get as many at home as away, but to be honest with him it's mostly about the goals)
