FPL managers will be looking forward to Gameweek 22 after a rather torrid Gameweek 21 that saw plenty of rotation.
Popular FPL assets like Raheem Sterling, Ben Chilwell, Joao Cancelo and John Stones didn't play a single minute in Gameweek 21.
This also highlighted the importance of selecting the right vice-captain in your FPL team, with some managers reaping the rewards of having a safe back-up.
With Chelsea facing Tottenham Hotspur, the number of viable captaincy options is reduced, even though the main big hitters from Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United remain solid picks.
On that note, let's take a look at the top 5 FPL captaincy choices for Gameweek 22.
Honorable Mentions: Joao Cancelo (MCI) (DEF) (£5.9 m), Ilkay Gundogan (MCI) (MID) (£5.8 m), and Dominic Calvert-Lewin (EVE).
#5 Harvey Barnes (LEI) (MID) - £6.9 m (vs) FUL(A)
Leicester City's Harvey Barnes is a decent FPL captaincy shoutout for Gameweek 22. He has been in fine form over the last seven gameweeks, scoring four goals and supplying two assists. He has recorded an attacking return in each of his last four matches and looks set to add to that tally when the Foxes travel to Craven Cottage in Gameweek 22.
Brendan Rogers' men will be looking to bounce back from their defeat against Leeds United, and Barnes should deliver a good performance both for his team as well as for FPL managers.
#4 Son Heung-Min (TOT) (MID) - £9.8 m (vs) CHE(H)
Son Heung-Min is likely to lead the line when Spurs take on Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea in Gameweek 22.
Son has been one of the best players this season and is among the best FPL assets this season. He has done pretty well when Harry Kane is injured, especially when playing as a lone striker.
While Spurs' upcoming fixture may not seem easy on paper, Son has done really well against the big opponents this season, scoring against teams like Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal.
His clinical finishing and lightning-quick speed should earn him get some attacking returns in this game, to the delight of his FPL owners.
#3 Raheem Sterling (MCI) (MID) - £11.5 m (vs) BUR(A)
Raheem Sterling was one of the many notable omissions in the game against Sheffield United, leaving many FPL managers frustrated. However, one positive is that he is fully rested and fit to feature against Burnley in Gameweek 22.
Manchester City has had tremendous success against the Clarets. While Sterling is yet to find the net against them, he's very likely to do so considering the good form the Cityzens have been in.
Given his record against the weaker opposition, a fully fit Raheem Sterling is a decent FPL captaincy option.
#2 Bruno Fernandes (MUN) (MID) - £11.4 m (vs) SOU(H)
Bruno Fernandes will once again be a top FPL captaincy option despite his recent blanks.
The Portuguese midfielder has been the most-captained FPL player for two Gameweeks running. However, he disappointed many with blanks in the last two games.
With four blanks in the last five games, Fernandes has endured a dry run. A game at Old Trafford against a struggling Southampton side might, however, be the game in which he regains his mojo. When both these teams met earlier this season, Fernandes played a pivotal role in Manchester United's 3-2 win and recorded a 10-point FPL haul.
While he has had some tough times, Fernandes has been a very dependable FPL asset so far, and FPL managers can't do much better than him when it comes to captaincy options.
#1 Mohamed Salah (LIV) (MID) - £12.5 m (vs) BHA(H)
Mo Salah broke his goal drought with a superb performance against West Ham United, and that puts him right back at the top of our captains' list for Gameweek 22. The Egyptian has been a pretty streaky FPL asset and tends to go on goalscoring runs.
A game against Brighton at Anfield could be the ideal fixture for him to add to his goals tally this season. He has always been a go-to captain for a lot of FPL managers and, now that he's back in form, he's undoubtedly the top FPL captaincy option for Gameweek 22.
