Who are the best Everton players to own for FPL Double Gameweek 24?

Everton come under the spotlight as we begin our team-by-team look at the four clubs with two fixtures in Double Gameweek 24.

After a flying start to the season, the Toffees have endured a mixed run of form and face-off against Fulham and Manchester City in Double Gameweek 24.

The 500,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players who have brought Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.7m) into their teams for the double now face an anxious wait after the striker was substituted off with a hamstring injury in their FA Cup clash with Spurs.

With other assets like Richarlison (£7.8m), James Rodriguez (£7.7m) and Lucas Digne (£6.1m) receiving some attention, we are assessing Everton’s FPL credentials using Opta data.

As this article uses a significant amount of information from the Fantasy Football Scout Premium Members Area, only those with a valid subscription can access it in full.

THE FORM

Everton started the season as unlikely title contenders after a series of impressive results.

After scoring 14 goals in their first five Gameweeks, Calvert-Lewin was a fixture in nearly every team, with Rodriguez and Digne also picking up a decent following.

But injuries to key players saw the Toffees drop out of form, with Carlo Ancelotti choosing a more defensive style of play to grind out victories.

However, recent results and a return to form for Calvert-Lewin, who failed to score a single goal from Gameweek 12 to Gameweek 21, have seen a resurgence in Everton ownership.

      Impossible to say today - wait until press conferences tomorrow as you have several doubts so might want to take a hit if anyone is ruled out.

      1. Bubbles1985
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I know. Jumped in on Pope today when he was cleared.

        1. GoonerSteve
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Has Pope been cleared? Great news if so.

          1. Bubbles1985
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            No longer flagged.

    2. GoonerSteve
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure I would bench Son.

      1. Bubbles1985
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Just made that change. Will be one of the West Ham boys in his place i think once pressers done.

        1. GoonerSteve

          What are your thoughts on DCL? I've got the same front three.

          1. Bubbles1985
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            A bit disappointed but not wanting to ruin my plans now by taking a hit.
            Frustrating though!
            In hindsight Richarlison would have been better...

      2. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Son comes on for DCL anyhow

        1. Bubbles1985
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          DCL probably plays against City?

          1. Pooodle
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            He won't if he's hurt his hamstring. Suspect he'll be formally ruled out tomorrow

            1. Bubbles1985
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Ancellotti is normally honest so we will see.

  2. Slurpy
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on this WC ?

    Pope
    Digne Lowton Stones Shaw
    Sterling Fernandes Gundogan Gudmundsson
    Ings Watkins
    (McCarthy Dallas Bamford Raphinha)

    Gudmundsson out 25
    Kane in 26

    1. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Do you have a lot in the bank with this team? Looks a bit cheap across the midfield at least and I don't love the Gudmundsson pick especially just to be transferred out next week considering the amount of injuries happening at the minute.

      1. Slurpy
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah got about 4.4m in the bank to afford any of my strikers to Kane. Tbf Gudmundsson doesnt need to come out hes got WBA next then probably another double. It is just a punt (as a Burnley fan) he looks to be returning to form and with Brady out should play close to 90 mins in both games.

  3. Pooodle
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Does anyone know when Ancelotti's press conference is this week? Hopefully tomorrow before the deadline at least?

        Perfect - thanks. Hoping we get some proper news on Digne as well as DCL - thinking of BB this week but not if I have any proper doubts!

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I can't because they are not playing against Wolfsburg

    2. ilikewud
      • 3 Years

      You'd have to Imagine because they aren't playing Wolfsburg

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers.....any reason why prefer him?

        1. Pooodle

          Good fixture this week, double in 25 and could also have one in 26/27

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Cavani

  9. Steinburg FC
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any Fulham fans about? which is the best defender to get? serious question X-)

    1. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not a Fulham fan, but I think it's a very bad idea to be considering anyone other than Areola especially as you can get players like Dallas, Targett, Lowton, Vestergaard etc for around the same price.

      1. Steinburg FC
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Dallas, Targett, Lowton, Vestergaard are my other defenders, well targett will be in 26. only have 4.5 to spend on 5th defender

        1. Steinburg FC
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          p.s. can;t see burnley scoring against them or Shefield united, worth the punt for the price i think

        2. Pooodle
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          No City defender? That's brave

          1. Steinburg FC
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            my 5th defender is Dias, i know hes flagged but i want the security of starts in the future

            1. Pooodle
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Dias is about as nailed as you can get apart from illness/injuries that can happen to anyone

  10. AzzaroMax99
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    WHat to do here?

    2 FT
    2.5 IDB

    Martinez
    Dias* Cancelo Cresswell Mitchel
    Salah Bruno(C) Gundo Grealish
    Vardy Antonio*

    Forster Bamford H.Barnes Dallas

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Play Bamford and Dallas ahead of Mitchell and Vardy.

      Forster to Pope and roll 2bd FT

  11. abaalan
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Own Justin, DCL, Digne, Antonio.... all now flagged.

    Do i need to WC or what?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Depends on the rest of your teams and how many FTs you have. I expect Digne and Antonio to be for the GW

      1. abaalan
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Got 2 FT's... wanted to get rid of soucek and coufal ideally

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Justin may make it. We don't know.

      DCL pretty unlikely.

      Antonio possible.

      Not following Digne.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Justin unlikely on the face of it.

  12. Manani
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    for those doing WC25, what is your one week pun?

    1. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe Richarlison for me

    2. Ohh1454
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Possibly raphina

  13. Super John McGinn-
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any thoughts on what to use transfers this week, Robbo/Mitchell > Digne/Burnley but now DCL news too
    Still got WC, BB & TC

    Pope,
    Cancelo, Dias, Robbo
    Salah, Bruno, Grealish, Gundo (C), Soucek
    DCL, Antonio

    Martinez, Bamford, Dallas, Mitchell

    2 FT 4.2 ITB.

  14. Bushwhacker

    3 years, 1 month ago

    No VAR at Barnsley?

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Only at stadiums of teams who play in the PL

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        That's insane. How can you have a competition played by two different sets of rules? Clear penalty for Chelsea gone.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Only EPL teams

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Needs to be set up Bushy

    4. ivantys
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Clear pen not given, shows that refs are blind nowadays and always just relies on var after.

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Shocking really ; although from the refs angle I can see him not giving it.

  15. davies

    What is the best chip strategy for those only used FH so far?

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Considering WC24, BB25, cling in for dear life GW29

      1. Pooodle
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I'm thinking BB 24, WC 25, TC 26 at the minute if the pressers sound positive on players' injuries tomorrow

        1. Pegboy
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I'd love to play BB this week if I can, as it makes the GW25 WC much more straightforward (having to take into account 25/26/29)

  16. jammie26
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What impact does this chelsea game have on weeks 26/29? Ta

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Massive.

      Liverpool play Chelsea gw29 if Barnsley keep it up.

      Or bgw 29 in the mix.

      1. jammie26
        • 3 Years

        Ta.

  17. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Are Dias owners playing him or benching him this GW?

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Playing

    2. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I have no choice with Digne, Justin and him flagged ... so will start him as planned with Coufal and hope he gets at least one game ... so Dallas Off bench most likely.

    3. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Wait to see if he's ruled out tomorrow

  18. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Benchboost doesn't reset your FH earnings back to 1 does it?
    I can't recall.

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      FT*

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

      Only WC and FH do.

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years

      It does

    4. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Dammit. I'm going to have to review the rules now.

      1. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Checked.
        Only WC and FH , as per TM

  19. makivelja
    • 4 Years

    Quick question guys, Is Salah gonna score something this GW? Or should i sell him to Sterling even if i have Gundo?

    Thanks!

    1. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'd sell for Sterling presuming you don't already have 3 City players

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes,

      Switch.

      He may score but its the early game at Leicester.
      Who may be missing Justin.

      So the question is who scores most in dg24?

  20. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Dias nowhere to be seen in the Man City's video from training ahead of Tottenham. Make sure you have a playing bench, you start Son and you don't captain Cancelo!

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Damn this is really bad news for Dias owners

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Could still play the second game but annoying not knowing before deadline

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      The guy has a stomach bug. Of course he isn't going to train .... or eat.. You seem suprised

    4. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Hope we hear more updates tomorrow.

  21. seanie3
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    what are DCL owners doing if Carlo reveals tomorrow that he is out of the game at the weekend but could be ok for the game against City.. keeping or getting rid..

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Might sell for Ings

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        For a -4

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Benching

    3. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely selling - either for Ings, or for Richarlison if I decide to WC in 25

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Might bring Kane in early

    5. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      DCL > Cavani

    6. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Depends how many fires but think I will sell him.
      Is it confirmed hamstring and is that the same injury he just returned from?

      A lot of teams will want to have Kane Bamford +1 soon so depends on your structure I guess

  22. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

            True, not sure if he goes central or they play Josh King there

      Triple Southampton on a wildcard is brave

        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ings is the only starter, Vestergard and McCarthy bench players who have more doubles down the line, not a lot money tied up there.

    Salah and stones to sterling and targett a good move?

    Martinez
    Mee cancelo coufal

      Not for a hit

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        No, it'd be for free, 2fts

  26. Paqueta Rice
    • 3 Years

    So do I start Chillwell then?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would transfer him out if you have no other fires to put out. He is still a rotation risk and not worth the hassle

    Guys, are we actually thinking that ederson will be on pens?

    1. n-doggg
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No chance

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years

      No, Aguero is in training already, he'll take them if he's on the pitch and KDB will return soon also

    3. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no

    GTG? or any hits to make? (0 ft and 3.8mn itb)

    Mcarthy (Forster)
    Pieter Rudiger Cancelo (Justin, Lewis)
    Salah Fernandes Gundo Son (Soucek)
    Antonio Bamford Dcl

    A) Forster to Pope for a hit
    B) Salah or Son to Sterling for hit?
    C) No hit and keep team

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C

    2. Pooodle
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'd definitely do A and to be honest I'd strongly consider B as well due to the double.

    3. pavlev
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no hit, maybe start soucek if DCL misses fulham?

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      DCL for Jesus for the upside?

      1. bigdip
        • 11 Years

    Barnsley motivated by the prospects of the South Yorkshire derby in the Cup against the Blades.

    Potentially good for Salah season keepers!

    Anyone know what is going on with the Mitchell /PvA situation? PvA seems to be first choice but taken off at ht against Leeds. Possibly clean sheet on the cards v Burnely
