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?

      Looks good, maybe Kelly to someone for long term?

  3. V-2 Schneiderlin

    Anyone shipping Abraham for DCL (or similar)? Worth it or foolhardy?!

    1. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      worth it, form says so.

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      yep

    3. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      fixtures too suggest is a good move..

  4. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Thinking of punting on Haller. Have the exact cash:

    Rashford + Kelly 》》 Haller + VVD for -4

    Do it tonight?

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

      Haller really is a punt. Might work though.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, missed a few chances against Everton, feel he is going to be this coming gw star.

  5. Lebowski85

    Trent Triple captain.

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

      Don't see why not.

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        It sounds good in theory - I've seen two cleans sheets and an assist in one of them predicted somewhere. In reality he's likely to keep only 1 clean sheet though.

        1. Lebowski85
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          7 on the spin! Tighter than a ducks arse aswell. Plus I reckon Mane won't play both games

  6. Stef rocks
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    All non TC do you really think you will have a better occasion to use the chip this season ?!

    1) You have the option to play it now for one of the top scoring players for probably currently the best club in the world (Pool didn’t have a double GW last 2 season)

    2) Even if Pool have a Double GW later in the season they might be champions at that time so rotation is highly likely (especially if they move forward in CL)

    3) It is the perfect double GW because basically there are 6 days difference between both Pool matches. Usually other double GW are 2-3 days between matches, so rotation is becoming less likely

    4) who else would you use it on? - do you think MCI players will play both double GW matches (if they eventually have such Gw)?

    After all above said my TC is active, the only dilemma is who to use it on?

    Any other thought are appreciated ofcourse 🙂

    1. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      my main concern is Salah and Mane, as in which one is going to get the points? I miss the old days of Aguero TC!

    2. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Im worried that they are both away games, West Ham have been tighter at home since Moyes arrival, Wolves will score...plus Vardy looks likely to have a DGW if Leicester beat Villa in the EFL cup. Im not saying that I won't play my TC on either TAA or Mane....

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Agree. It’s going down. Salah TC I think

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I'm with you there Rafa - feeling good actually

    4. JRD
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      salah (TC) for me

    5. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'm in the lead of my MLs and I prefer to chase as opposed to being chased ... keeping the TC back for later in the season is another weapon

  7. NachoMan
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Anything worth a free transfer here?

    Ryan
    TAA, Robbo, Creswell
    Salah, Tross, KDB, Maddison
    Vardy, DCL, Jimi

    Bench : Ramsdale, Traore, Lund, Rico

  8. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    How to sort this bunch?

    Ryan Button
    TAA Lund Soy Dunk Kelly
    Salah Mane KDB Sarr* Cantwell
    Vardy Rashford* DCL

    2 FT, 0.3 in bank.

    15.4m to spend on Rashford + Sarr replacements (no Ings or Brighton)
    Don't mind a hit.

    Cheers in advance

    1. Here's Tom with the We…
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Son and Greenwood?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Spurs a mess atm.

        1. Here's Tom with the We…
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Fair enough. I’d love to have Son in my team. Prob Grealish/ Martial and Deeney then.

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Martial and deeney.

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Martial and Deeney

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Jinx

    4. Lumberjack
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Ings is great value I think, with good fixtures. Could then upgrade Sarr to Martial, might be a good shout with Rash out.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Ings 50/50 to start then Pool isn't great imo. After that is though.

    5. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Haller and Snoddy. Nothing to loose.

    6. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Ayew and Son maybe?
      Not sure if you want Aguero now and then maybe take a hit and get maybe williams and a cheap mid and get rid of Soy

      1. Mo Salah No Mane
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        No spurs then
        Aguero Douglas Luis and Williams and lose Soy as well for a hit

    7. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cheers all, one more day of pressers then decide I guess.

    8. Stef rocks
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez Ings?!

      1. Stef rocks
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Also you could take 1week punt on Haller and then reasses

  9. Soto Ayam
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    If mane has scored 58 away from home and Salah 41, can someone please tell me why am i, and seemingly many others, so intent on TC'ing him?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Because it could be even after the GW.

    2. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Salah on pens with Milner out injured. People looking for a differential as Mane well owned.

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, both valid points

    3. sandman58
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I think TAA is a better option for triple captain
      Based on the strong probability that Liverpool keep 2 clean sheets meaning 36 points at the very least

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        For sure against West ham, but wolves? However, they're previous 7 cs's suggest otherwise! I have considered it

    4. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Those figures include
      Mane v sot (13) gw1 and v avl (12) gw 11 - otherwise its 33 in 8 = 4.125
      Salah v bou (13) gw16 - otherwise its 26 in 7 = 3.71

      Taking each ones Highest + Average gives 17 points for Mane and 16 or 17 points for Salah
      These appear to be good single gw figures but poor dgw ones

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks. Certainly food for thought. Personally I still wonder if we consider Salah through rose-tinted glass with memories of 2 seasons ago.

        1. _Ninja_
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Only Vardy has a higher ppg this season (by 0.1) and Salah hasnt even had a great season.

        2. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I had the choice of Salah or Mane this week and thought Salah was the one with more mojo at the moment
          If I had dug into the figures beforehand I would have been more tempted to go with Mane

          Watching the Spurs match, I did think Mane was doing a lot more team work, which gives the points edge to Salah

  10. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    If Pool get another DGW then they will have likely won the league by then, the games will be close together and the big two will only get a game each.

    1. sandman58
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Strike now while the iron is hot

    2. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It could be interesting at the end of the season to check how many home sgw Mane or Salah outscore what they do in gw24

      Either can easily score 15 points in a game at Anfield - a return of 20 on the dgw will be a good score ... so that would boil down to a 5 point bonus for the TC

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Agree in some ways but your maths is a little off.

        15 * 3 = 45
        20 * 3 = 60!

        1. HashAttack
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          but if you were to captain the player anyway ...
          15x2 = 30
          20x2 = 40

          Its +10 for the captain - the TC is only giving you an additional +5

  11. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Could Martial be on pens with rash out?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Probably.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Think I'll get him in.

    2. sandman58
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      With Rash and Pogba out
      Martial will take the pens

    3. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      He is.. as long as Mata isn’t on the pitch (and even then it’s a 50/50 chance..)

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        thoughts on rich TO martial...?

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah. I think martial could be good.

  12. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Ryan
    Soy TAA Holgate
    Salah Mane KDB Traore
    Jimi Vardy Greenwood
    (Button Lund Dendoncker Rico)

    2FT + 0.8ITB

    a) Rico > Williams
    b) Rico > Lascelles
    c) Traore & Soy > Grealish & Williams/Lascelles

    1. The Sociologist
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      B) for now. Last chance saloon for Soy with West Ham visiting.

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'm waiting to see if Williams keeps playing for a few more but it's a good punt. I'm getting B next probably, good price and nailed

  13. The Sociologist
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Worth swapping Rico > Holgate this week? Do we think Holgate plays?

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Did it myself - we just don't know on his starts but I trust him and not Rico basically 🙂

  14. Danstoke82
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Probably the most asked question but who to TC?

    A) Salah
    B) Mane
    C) TAA

    Thinking A but the temptation to do C is appealing.

    Thanks in advance

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

      I’m starting to think C is the correct play but I’m not brave enough

      1. Soto Ayam
        • 4 Years

        I tend to agree with you.

    2. JRD

  15. TeddiPonza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Have both Salah and Mane. Who would you triple captain?

      I'm the same, I'm swayed towards Salah!

      TCing this week is the most bate thing I could think of.

      Every team, that aint dead, will be putting the armband on a pool player and potentially own the power 3.(TAA,Mane,Salah)

      Captaining to get 1/3 additional points will not help you gain the advantage on your rivals.

      1. *Reformed-Character*
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        This logic is absolutely woeful

        1. Belli2007
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I played my TC on a Man City DGW last year and put on Sane who was scoring well going into it. He was benched and didn't play the first match and came on for 27 mins in the 2nd.

          3pts.

          Aguero on the other hand was injured coming into it which was why I didn't take the risk. Played both and delivered 57pts....

          Salah. TC. Done

  21. HashAttack
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just been shocked at the stats for my highest scoring players (on FPL Statistico) ... just 3 matches for Aguero and he is up at no 3

    Player - Played / Points
    Vardy - 12 / 148
    KDB - 16 / 111
    Aguero 3 / 82
    Rashford 12 / 79
    Tammy 14 / 78
    Lunds 14 / 70
    Maddy 13 / 70

    1. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I guess the moral is who cares if Aguero is benched ... another bucket load of points will be around soon enough

    2. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      My best ever season I had Kun for just 4 games and he got me around 110 pts.

  22. timawflowers
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Need to take one out this week for mane, which one do I take out?
    A - aguero
    B - ings

    1. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      depends on which midfielder you are selling as that determines the price point of the FWD that you will need to replace a) or b) with

      I'd just sell KDB if you have him

  23. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Help please!

    A) Son & Robertson
    B) Mane & Soyuncu

    I have Salah and TAA

    Quick thought on TC

    Liverpool are dominant in results but their relatively modest goal difference also tells a tale.

    It hasn’t been - with one obvious exception - a season of dominant Liverpool player performances.

    Two more solid 2-0 2-1 type performances? DGW but I’m failing to get excited

      Disconnect between Liverpool the team and individual returns?

      Clearly they were the better side against Utd but equally gifted the closing goal.

      West Ham is the game to give encouragement

    3. UTD - HATED, ADORED, BUT NE…

      They could’ve easily beaten Utd by 5 or 6 but for some bad luck and dodgy refereeing. I wouldn’t count on low scoring games this coming GW.

      Anything could happen

      They won 4-0 away to Leicester

      Mane & Salah got 9 points between them in that match

      This game is mental and trying to predict individual results is close to impossible - it’s a bit more feasible to try to predict the general gist of larger blocks of fixtures, but even then can shock and surprise very regularly

    So..

    Richarlison TO Martial.?

      Could be a shout. Burnley are stubborn tho.

    Replacing one of Soy or Kelly next week. Who do we like? To go with Taa/Lord/Holgate.
    A. Lascelles/Clark/Fernández (which?)
    B. Williams
    C. 2nd Sheff Utd (which?)
    D. Other Palace defender.

  29. Bobby Digital

    Will Auba be back for 2nd Feb game or the next one?

    1. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      not 100% sure there is a break until 16th before the next GW ... I'd target to bring him in then v NEW
