Sadio Mané (£9.6m) is once again matching Mohamed Salah (£13.6m) and making a strong case for inclusion in our Fantasy Premier League squads.

The Senegalese international has scored five goals in the last seven Gameweeks, the exact same number as his Egyptian colleague.

We’ve had a look at the data to see if Mané is capable of sustaining his form and what role he has to play in FPL in the coming weeks.

Fantasy Football Scout members can read on and have a look at our analysis…

    Bottomed

    2FT,0.5ITB, need your input lads

    Ederson Hamer
    VVD TAA Lindelof AWB Benett
    Salah Pogba Richarlison Son Puncheon
    Auba Jimenez Rashford

    I am planning on bringing in a full squad of DGW players for GW32.

    My planned switch this week is Digne > ? (Ideally to a player who plays this week)

    My current defence is...

    Robertson - Doherty - Digne - AWB - Bednarek

    Is Kola still the best option? Or possibly Shaw? Anything from left field?

    1. Ruth_NZ
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      ...and how do you know which teams will double in GW32?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        this very risky without knowing the fixtures

    2. Kuzser
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Newcastle def

    3. FPL Pillars
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      So you are FH GW31?

    4. The 5% Team
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Going a similar route, my defense: Robbo - Doh - AWB - Kola - Pereira

      so I would say get Kola

    5. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      We know Shaw, along with Doherty won't be playing in GW33.
      So I'd avoid him.
      Periera for me.

    6. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Depends on your gw31 team. Digne plays that week. Kolasinac does not. I would choose Pereira chilwell or taa.

    7. Black Knights
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Kola doubles in 32 (hopefuly) and plays in 33. Perfect.

    8. Vobinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Does that mean you'll eventually get rid of Robertson?

      Riskiest strategy I've seen so far as we have no idea who doubles in 32 so could be a few wasted transfers.

      What's happened to it?

    2. Oh Maddison

      works now?

      1. Balls of Steel

        Hooray!

  4. Millie7
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Hi guys, in need of some advice please

    Foster
    Robbo - AWB - Doherty
    Salah - Son - Pogba - Sane
    Laca - Rashford - Jimmy

    Guaita - Holebas - Bednarek - Masuaku

    1FT and 0.7 ITB

    With Sane and Holebas both out it leaves me with no choice but to play Bednarek...obviously going to use a transfer to avoid that, but unsure where to use it for the next few upcoming fixtures.

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      What's wrong with Bednarek?

      1. HamezMace
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Difficult run of fixtures I guess.

      2. Millie7
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Away to Arsenal, which leaves me with Masuaku if anyone doen't play

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Only Man U and Liverpool have conceded less than Southampton last 6 away. Remember Chelsea - Southampton? Arsenal aren't very good

          1. Millie7
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            True, thanks fo that

  5. DAZZ
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    I wonder when the PL will announce the fixture re arrangements.

    1. The 5% Team
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      could take a couple of weeks unfortunately...like last year

  6. Cojones of Destiny
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    got 1FT planning to get Kun in 28 would you :
    A. take one gw punt on let’s say aub/laca/arnie/ron (which if yay)
    B. feck it and roll

    thx

  7. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Roll FT?

    Fabianski
    Robbo TAA Doherty
    Son Salah Pogba Anderson
    Auba Rashford Jimenez

    Boruc AWB Højbjerg Digne

    1. Kuzser
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. Or Digne-> pereira

    2. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Roll on

  8. Yordan Letchkov
    • 10 Years

    Lloris Button
    Luiz Kola Doherty Wan-Bi Bednarek
    Salah Son Pogba Rich Camarasa
    Firmino Rash Jimenez

    1FT 4.3itb ; all chips available

    Any suggestion highly appreciated.

    Reasonable to do Firmino/Rich -> Auba/Anderson?
    Plan to build my GW31 team from GW28 on...

    1. Balls of Steel
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Rich to Fanderson this week

  9. Kuzser
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Which of these 2 will you prefer:
    1) Son->Mane direct swap next gw and ignore city assets in gw's 28-30.
    2) Son, digne-> sterling, 4.4def for -4 next gw and get mane before bgw31

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      I feel bad for people without Sterling and Aguero for 28-30

      1. Ruth_NZ
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        No you don't.

      2. Annie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Can see both of them starting once or twice in that period.

      3. Mo Mané Mo Problems
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Think I'll see what happens tonight and Sunday.

        Depends on those results/minutes and Jesus' injury I think.

        Expect strongest XI tonight and Sunday. If they come through those matches well, and with minutes managed, then sure, 28-30 is going to be a points-fest for the pair. GW30 is the one that screams points to me, if Jesus is fit and the Schalke tie is virtually done.

  10. Pompel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Would love to get Mané - but would mean no Aguëro GW28-30. Decision can wait till next GW though.

  11. internal error
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    City will probably score loads of goals in GWs 28-30. I only have Aguero. Is anyone bringing in a city player for these games?

    1. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Just keeping Aguero/Ederson for a while

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      nope and i dont even have aguero 🙂

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Have Sterling and bringing in Aguero for 3 GWs

    4. CROCosta
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      i have aguero, will bring sterling for eriksen next week and then ditch aguero in gw31, keep sterling for rest of season

  12. FPL Pillars
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Hey guys,

    My team at the mo:

    Fabianski^ Boruc^
    TAA^ S.Cook^ Digne^ Doherty AWB
    Hazard^ Salah(c)^ Mane^ Pogba MGW
    Rashford Aguero Jiménez

    Have 8 Already who play in GW31 so makes sense I’ll FH GW32 and WC34

    1FT this week, waiting on news on Doherty. If he’s out the game two then I think he goes as I’ll be down one this GW and he doesn’t play 31 or 33. Eyeing up Chilwell.

    Plan to hide this GW out and expecting a red to be honest. Too late for Son and he blanks 31 and 33 in Brighton win FA cup vs Millwall. Think Burnley will keep it tight anyway tbh.
    Auba plays late in europa league so do not fancy Hokey Cokey as Kun in fine form and transfers are precious this time of the season.

    Cheers

    1. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Your squad's similar to mine (same front 8 and 3 defs) - also looking at Chilwell (for Holebas) and just wear this week with salah/pogba captain.

      Lacazette's suspended for Europa and Arsenal play 21st, 24th, 27th. Not even sure Auba will play 90 in next 2 PL games so not bothering.

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah exactly you would expect Auba to play a full 90 against BATE. It’s either Salah Pog for cap, favour Salah. Pog will be vice though.

        1. MTPockets
          7 years, 6 months ago

          I'm on the same for c/vc. Form suggests otherwise though so may change my mind

      2. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Well auba has played full 90 for a longtime especially Christmas period . Don't buy into this

        1. MTPockets
          7 years, 6 months ago

          Each to their own

        2. FPL Pillars
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          I’m not say he won’t play but he will be tired BATE might even go the distance!

    2. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      You only have eight if you've found a way to play two keepers 🙂

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        FT from now until 31 makes 11 🙂 bonus that I can afford one GK to be injured and still have another!

        1. HamezMace
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          When do you plan to lose Aguero?

          I'm thinking of doing Sterling to Hazard prior to GW29, as part of my planned transfers to get a full team out in GW31 without a FH, but I'm worried about losing Sterling.

    3. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Also got burnt thinking he will be rotated in Christmas.Absolutely no chance based on recent history.His style of play doesn't need rest anyway

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        The only times he’s been explosive is off the bench so maybe you should want him to start on it 🙂

  13. The Pep Revolution
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Besides three from Liverpool, who else would you say is essential for game week 31?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      not sure about essential but w ham assets could be good as they play home to hud

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        and chelsea of course !

    2. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Bournemouth mid/fwd

      1. MTPockets
        7 years, 6 months ago

        * same for chelsea

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Too many possibilities need to prove themselves next 1-3 games. I'm rolling FT

    4. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Chelsea probable double 31

  14. balint84
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    A) Richarlison to Anderson
    B) D.Luiz to Bamba

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      a for

      if you do b then to a newcastle defender, dont make sense to get a cardiff defender

      1. balint84
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        thank buddy!

    2. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Depending on chip strategy - but A.
      (Bamba doesn't play in GW31)

  15. De Gea is GOAT
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Hey guys save FT?

    Patricio
    Robbo Doherty Kola
    SalaH Mane Son Pogba
    Jimi Barnes Rash

    Guaita Dilva AWB Bednarek

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. Prefer Guaita. Patricio can't catch a cold

      1. De Gea is GOAT
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks. Thinking of bringing in Sterling/Aguero/5m mid for Salah/Jimi/Dilva next week. Good move?

  16. LewanGOALski
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Is this strategy OK?
    I’ve only used my TC chip for now

    BGW31: outfield 8 players with 1 hit
    DGW32: Free Hit chip
    BGW33: use FT to maximize number of players
    GW34: Wildcard
    DGW35: Bench Boost chip

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. It's the best imo

  17. jpizz
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Captain Aub or Arn?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      aub for me

    2. danishdynamite
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Auba

  18. HairlessGrealish
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Sane to F. Anderson or Maddison, or maybe someone else?

    1. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Anderson

  19. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Guaita
    Robbo* Pereira* Doherty
    Son Salah* Pogba Anderson*
    Rashford Jimenez Auba
    (Button - Camarasa - AWB - TAA*)

    1. Correct order/bench?
    2. Is this team better set up for FH31 or 32 in your opinion?

  20. danishdynamite
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    I appreciate we don't yet know the DGW32 fixtures, and it'll be around the 22nd that we know more ...... but looking at the possibiltiites, I'm a bit underwhelmed.

    There aren't many teams you think "I'm all over them like the clap" cos of their two banging DGW fixtures. Quite the opposite, actually

    1. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Arsenal potential fixtures look okay. Chelsea could be good. City have the potential to score lots against anyone.

    2. MTPockets
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Mci Mun Tot with 2 games seems ok for goal potential, and Chelsea could have car/BHA (4 of the top 6)
      But yeah not amazing

      1. MTPockets
        7 years, 6 months ago

        *forgot about arsenal

  21. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Hi, which is better move?
    A. Digne -> Pereira
    B. Sane -> Anderson
    Ta.

    1. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Tough one. B imo.

    2. HamezMace
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      B.
      Depending on chip strategy - but Digne plays 31, so if you're not FH'ing that week, makes sense to keep any players you have who are playing that week, and he has Cardiff next week as well.

  22. Eytexi
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Three dilemmas.
    Any advice appreciated.

    Buy One:
    A) Aubameyang
    B) Lacazette

    Buy One:
    1) Almiron (+ Fraser in GW31)
    2) Barnes (+ Fraser in GW31)
    3) Fraser (+ other 6m in GW31)

    Bench One:
    A) Whoever you picked from above.
    B) Rashford.
    C) Jiminez.

  23. Mo Mané Mo Problems
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Alisson
    Robbo, AWB, Bednarek, Doherty, Digne
    Salah, Pog, Son, Fraser, Punch
    Kun, Rash, Jimi

    2FTs, (No WC), 3.4m ITB

    Original plan was Digne + Kun to Lascelles + Laca. Then Fraser to Sterling next week, however I think due to the FA Cup results, this is a no go.

    Thinking of just doing Kun to Kane for a laugh, considering how screwed I am now without a WC. Then worry about next week, when it comes around.

  24. Pras (FPL)
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Much like RMTs in pre-season, maybe we should have a separate chat for chips strategy. Too much clutter with the same questions

    1. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Agreed.

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      definitely

  25. Vobinho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Question on Sky overhaul - is it best to concentrate on the DGWers with minimal transfers as there's not much upside in concentrating on the BGW players?

    1. Vobinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Or make a few transfers after BGW31 and then keep the side like that for the rest of the season

    2. lugs
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      blanks and doubles don't matter too much in Sky, its all about having a good captain choice on any particular matchday

      1. Vobinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 6 months ago

        I assume there's still a disadvantage if half the team is missing in BGW31 though (assuming sky match weeks operate in the same way)

        1. lugs
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 6 months ago

          yeah but since you have a limited amount of transfers, its probably better to just ride it out if you can captain someone each day, everybody will be in the same boat you wont suffer much

          1. Vobinho
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 6 months ago

            Currently I have 7 players that play that week, and Patterson, Pogba, Aguero and Auba will be there ready for DGW32 so probably not that bad anyway and may transfer Auba for Kane after the next two so that's one transfer gone already

  26. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    I have no clue what to do here, any advice would be much appreciated.

    Fabianski, Hamer
    Robertson, Doherty, Kolasinac, AWB, Yedlin
    Salah, Mane, Pogba, Son, *Sane*
    Jiminez, Rashford, Kamara.

    1FT, 0.1ITB

    I see no way of getting Aguero next week, Sane needs to go but it won't give me enough money. Don't really wanna get rid of anyone else! Need some City for the next 3 games after the blank. Do I just get Dilva on and forget Aguero?

    1. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Personally don't think im going to shuffle to bring in City assets, that's a few too many free transfers for me.

      I'd build a rough plan from now until GW33 and see where transfers can be better spent. If you think potential hits/not doing other moves is worth getting City cover then go for it, but for me it just doesn't seem it.

  27. Roy Rovers
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    GW28 Auba > Aguero
    GW29 Rashford > Barnes
    GW30 Camarasa to Fraser....will give me this....is it enough for GW31...all chips left.

    Fab
    TAA. Pereira.
    Salah. Mane. Fraser.
    Barnes.

    Bench!!…Button. Lindelof. AWB. Doherty. Pogba. Son. Jiminez. Aguero.

  28. The Pep Revolution
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 6 months ago

    Is using a free transfer this week to get in Aub for Aguero and then using a free transfer next week to reverse it too much wasting of free transfers?

    1. Eytexi
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      Yep

    2. built_this_city
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 6 months ago

      no - aubameyang is a sensible captain this week
