As the deadline looms closer, it is time to decide what to do with our precious free transfer(s). Aside from playing chips or selecting a captain, our transfers are the single most important aspect of our FPL campaign, and the importance of getting it right cannot be overstated.

In this article we crunch the numbers, analyse the fixtures, take advice from the Algorithm, and decide which player to buy, which player to sell, and which player to keep for Gameweek 22.

BUY: Marcus Rashford

• Cost: £7.2m
• Selected by: 50.6%
• Projected Points (Next 5 GWs): 25.2 (10th)

Rashford is predicted to score 11.1 points in Gameweek 22, more than any other player - click here for Player Points Projections

An easy recommendation this week; Marcus Rashford (£7.2m) is back to his very best under Erik ten Hag’s fast-paced and proactive style of football. According to Transfer Analytics, he is the third most transferred in player ahead of Gameweek 22, with almost half a million managers lifting his overall ownership above 50% – this figure rises to an astounding 94.6% when you look at ownership amongst managers in the Top 100k (Live Insight).

Looking at the Player Points Projections tool, we can see that Rashford is ranked top for predicted points in Gameweek 22, with the midfielder expected to score 11.1 points over the two fixtures. This makes Rashford a prime candidate for the captaincy this weekend and no doubt many managers will be considering deploying their Triple Captain chip.

If you already own Rashford, then Bruno Fernandes (£9.9m) is another great candidate and the most-transferred in player this Gameweek – find out more in our GW22 Differential Focus article.
