Goals + assists imminent! Who is ‘due’ in FPL Gameweek 22?

You’ve probably heard about Joe’s much-liked ‘Goals Imminent’ table. You might listen to his and Marc’s Fantasy Football Scout podcast of the same name. Now, Goals Imminent is here in article form!

Heading towards Gameweek 22 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), these Members Area statistics identify some 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 new signings: Sesko 2

Not only did Benjamin Sesko (£7.2m) secure his first league goal since Gameweek 7, but he quickly bagged another.

David Brooks (£5.0m) featured on both tables and came off the bench to assist, the same return as backed-to-score Marcus Tavernier (£5.5m) and Yasin Ayari (£4.8m).

GOALS IMMINENT

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

          Whilst no-one is watching the game, my question is have you considered WC24 as a viable strategy? One CC has mentioned that and he is the mos fixture oriented one. Blanks and doubles should be smaller this season again and we have possibility to cumulate transfers. Therefore situation could be or actually is different compared to previous times.

            It is true the fixture swing makes WC 24 appealing. I haven't considered it for my own team, because I'm on 4 FT right now.
            The blanks and doubles might be smaller, but it isn't just about the number of teams, it also depends on which specific teams get involved. The FA Cup just started, so there's a long way to go, but there's a chance M. City could blank in 31 and 34 and double in 33 and 36. Are you confident you can navigate that without a WC?

            GW24 has been talked about for a long time as one of the better fixture swings. Personally I dont see the point as the only good team with a swing is chelsea and its fairly easy to get 3 chelsea players if you want that without playing WC.

            WC is better spent when we know the blanks and doubles to have a good strategy going into those weeks.

            I would imagine it'll look a bit like this:
            dead end into 31 (first BGW)
            WC32
            BB33 (first DGW)
            FH34 (second BGW)
            TC36 (second DGW)

            Unless Arse & Wolves get a DGW in 26/27, in which case Mane (TC) might be on the cards

            Obviously depends on who actually blanks & doubles, and who we've got in our teams at the time the announcements are made, but this is what I'm looking at if Carabao cup results follow the odds.
