Pick Your Captain: Lead the Table or Fall Behind- GW7
As Gameweek 7 kicks off, the competition heats up and the challenge grows—bringing the key question: who will captain your team this time? At Fantasy 24 Club, we highlight the top captain contenders. It’s not just about picking the best players, but identifying the star capable of doubling their points and securing the gameweek for you—allowing you to seize the opportunity, rack up maximum points, and cement your place among the elite.
Top Players for Captain Picks in Gameweek 7
Haaland 14.3m
In just six gameweeks, Haaland has amassed 63 points, scoring 8 goals and providing 1 assist, proving he’s an unstoppable goal machine. He shone against Burnley, netting two goals in just four minutes. Gameweek 7 presents him with a seemingly easy test against a struggling Brentford following the departure of coach Thomas Frank, making the Norwegian a safe and top choice for the captain’s armband—and possibly the golden opportunity to use the Triple Captain chip.
Semenyo 7.7m
Semenyo has racked up 50 points in the first six gameweeks, proving himself as one of this season’s standout surprises. His upcoming match against Fulham at Bournemouth presents a perfect opportunity, especially as his team sits in a strong position and he’s looking to make an even bigger impact. Being the team’s penalty taker and one of the most dangerous attacking threats, choosing him as your GW7 captain could be a winning move to boost your points significantly.
Salah 14.5m
Mohamed Salah has accumulated 31 points in the first six gameweeks. While this is his lowest points tally at the start of any season, the signs suggest his real form is about to kick in. Salah didn’t start in the Champions League match against Galatasaray, giving him extra rest ahead of the clash with Chelsea. History is on his side too—he has contributed 12 goals against the Blues in 14 matches (8 goals and 4 assists). Making him your GW7 captain could be the smartest move to close the gap on your rivals, especially with Salah’s ownership percentage dipping.
Gyokress 9m
Although he seems to be struggling, his role as a regular starter for Arsenal and his three goals this season, coupled with the upcoming match against relegation-threatened West Ham, make him a strong candidate for captaincy. Being a starter who often takes penalties, and with his ownership percentage dropping, presents a great opportunity to outscore other Fantasy players if he racks up points as your captain.
watkins 8.7m
Despite a modest start, Ollie Watkins has shown strong signs of a comeback after helping Aston Villa secure victory in the previous gameweek. Gameweek 7 gives him a perfect test against Burnley, the league’s weakest defensive side so far, offering a real chance to shine. As the team’s main striker and first-choice penalty taker, making him your captain could be your winning move for double points—especially with ownership under 10% and his knack for exploding against relegation-threatened teams. Don’t miss the opportunity if he’s in your lineup.
Gameweek 7 is crucial for all Fantasy 24 Club players. Choosing your captain wisely could be the difference between leading the table or falling behind. Weigh your options between consistent starters and high-risk, high-reward players—consider their position, price, and expected performance, and remember that every point counts. Stick to your strategy, approach your attacking adventure with confidence, and make GW7 a step toward the top and big success in your lineup.
