Where FFS career Hall of Fame leader stands on Gameweek 12 Salah debate

Fantasy Premier League managers are faced with some big decisions in Gameweek 12 as premium assets are delivering across the board and causing big swings in overall rankings.

Despite only three players blanking and a total of 66 points, I still got my fourth red arrow of the season in Gameweek 11. Not having Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m), Mohamed Salah (£12.3m), Harry Kane (£10.9m) and Jamie Vardy (£10.3m) really hurt my chances of having a good round and I think I was fairly lucky to only have fallen 10,000 places in the overall rankings and to still be inside the top 30k.

    1. Saka Punch

      Lamptey probs

    2. Shark Team
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I have the same dilemma and i play Lamptey. He got me 9pts vs Spurs, he is so unpredictable and he seems better against good teams

    On the Southampton forums, I see Ings does not want to sign the contract extension lol

    Will Ings start this GW?

    @Blades fans

    What's the story with Kean Bryan? Any chance he keeps his spot long term?

    1. built_this_city
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      i also want to understand this - thinking about bringing him in for C Taylor

    2. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Nope Ampadu is back

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Oh okay. I didn't realise he was injured, assumed he'd lost his spot or something.

    3. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not a fan, but Stevens or Ampadu should replace him; they were both out injured last 2 weeks.

        • 12 Years

        Thanks all, much appreciated 🙂

    Anyone know if in the members area there's a way to see stats on how well teams defend corners? Eg: shots faced from corners etc.

    Want to see how United have been in that regard before deciding whether to bench Dias, Ayling or Lewis.

    1. LSK
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t know the stats but I like to watch Mark Goldbridge rant about how bad they are at defending corners. They conceded from 2 corners in the last two Premier League games. 1 vs Southampton. 1 vs West Ham.

      3 important questions for this gameweek:

      a) Coufal or Targett?
      b) Neto or Bowen?
      c) Salah or Kane captain??

      1. fplking14
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Coufal
        Bowen
        Salah

    7. yanky
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      can get mane for free (son out), salah would be for a hit (son cresswell out)... thinking of going mane for fulham then downgrading to kdb for west brom and worrying about salah in a few weeks when I can downgrade kane, thoughts?

    8. EWH2020
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Start Jota or Podence?

    9. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      What to do about Salah?

      Martínez (Forster)
      Chily, James, Coufal (Lamps)(Mitch)
      Grealish, KDB, Bruno, Son (Burke)
      DCL, Bamford, Vardy

      1 FT, 1.9 in bank

      a) save
      b) Son+DCL > Salah+5m fwd (-4)
      c) Bruno/KDB > Salah
      d) Vardy + Burke + 0.2 down > Salah+Davis+downgrade(-8)

      Cheers

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        C

      2. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        A or C if you really want Mo,but A imo

      3. Fudgy
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Vardy and Son to Salah and Ings maybe if possible

      4. LSK
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        C with Bruno then switch back next week or save.

      5. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        A, great team, many of your players can do as well as Salah this week

        1. Fudgy
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          He can't risk no Salah. What if Salah gets a hattrick

          1. RamaJama
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Son, kdb, Bamford also in great form and could haul, even Vardy could be due to strike back

            1. Fudgy
              • 4 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              I know but it's an insane risk to take surely ? Why even bother

    10. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years

      All we are saying it’s time to ditch DCL but for who ??

      1. Firmino
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Bamford, Watkins, Adams, Wilson

      2. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years

        Lol u really think chelsea wont concede?

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          But surely his appeal goes down with digne and Rodriguez our?

      3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Who says that? Two blanks all season. Definitely keeping.

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yes I know been great but got a few tricky games coming up

          1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            He didn't blank vs Spurs, Liverpool or Man Utd though.

    11. royals forever
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      How’s this for a -4

      Jota & Jesus > Zaha & Bamford

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Do you need Zaha with all the money?

    12. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      So in order to get good reviews around herezl, you must have or aim to have this midfield:

      Salah KDB Son Bruno Grealish

      and fund it with a pair of strikers from DCL, Watkins, Bamford and Adams. Wilson and Antonio to join later.

      Or else you will be slated.

      1. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Who cares about FFS reviews? Lmao 😆

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          That's what you think. Some people just love to be sheep.

          Btw, you don't take hard jokes easily lately.

          1. Flair
            • 3 Years

            Sorry mate 🙂

        for sure, dont post here if you are not following that strategy 😆

        1. NABIL - FPL otai

          But I like it here 🙁

        Quite the chip you've got on your shoulder. Good 'reviews'!?

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years

          You wouldn't believe the herd mentality

      4. Now I'm Panicking
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        It's not a coincidence that none of the genuine top players post RMTs on here.

        1. claretparrot
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I can't remember who wrote it, but an early season article basically said that if you're going to use this forum for advice you're much better off asking specific, targeted questions. Rather than dumping your team and hoping people take the time to study it properly.

        2. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Talk about that, imagine people seeing I still own Barkley or have Soucek as my 4th mid

      5. Karan14
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        It's very tough to afford that though.
        No cash for to other moves and defence doesn't look great either.

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          It's true. I wouldn't sacrifice my D for such mid

    13. Henning
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Last question before some family time.

      Fernandes and Zaha to Salah and Soucek for -4
      Next gw Jota to Grealish?

      Martinez

      Chilwell Vestergaard Justin
      Son KDB Fernandes Jota
      Vardy Bammford Wilsons

      Steer Zaha Lamptey Coufal

    14. Franfe98
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Please help me guys!

      Start Lamptey (LEI away) or Coufal (LEE away)?

      Thanks!

    15. sneif4
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Boring questions, sorry:
      I have McCarthy, do I start:
      A. KWP (SHU H)
      B. Lewis (WBA H)

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        KWP still. Just playing the clean sheet odds.

    16. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Doing Bruno and Foden to Salah (c) and 5.5 mid? Is best option Soucek and bank the change or try and do something clever?

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        bank the cash

      2. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Bank it

    17. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jota's yellow flag makes it even more tempting to get Salah in.

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, I've caved.

      2. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        still 50-50 for me, long term he is taking too much cash out of value

    18. Nespinha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      McCarthy,
      Robbo, Bellerin, James
      Grealish, Son, Bruno, KDB, Podence
      DCL, Werner

      Subs: Gk, KWP, Mitchell, Davis

      G2G?
      Werner to Ings for fixture swing and save money?
      Mitchell to Douglas to save money?

      1. Saka Punch
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Ings is a bit of a risk atm, as with the intense fixture schedule and him not fully back to full fitness, his minutes will defo be managed. The move could still pay off tho, great fixture this week and Werner not really producing (fellow owner)

        1. Nespinha
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          have nothing else to do, and I could bank 1.0 towards Salah next week

    19. Budweiser
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Best Masuaku replacement?
      I have Chilwell, Zouma, Lamptey, Kilman

      1. Budweiser
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Jamal Lewis? Good upcoming fixture with a double on the horizon?

    20. McPollolocco
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      3 important questions for this gameweek:

      a) Coufal or Targett?
      b) Neto or Bowen or Klich?
      c) Salah or Kane captain??

    21. GuillermoDickero
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Fair few issues in my team.... A or B gents.

      A) Jota, ziyech, Rodriguez ---> Son, Grealish, Soucek

      B) Ziyech, Rodriguez, DCL ----> Salah (C), Bamford, Soucek

    22. CAPA
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I need to pick 2 (with 1 defender) from
      Justin, Dias, Jota and Welbeck
      Any help would be appreciated!
      Thanks

    23. Karan14
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jota is such a pain!

      But I think I will just have to keep him for the next 2 games atleast as there's no direct replacement I want.

      In GW14 with 2 FTs will either try and upgrade him to Son using DCL or downgrade him to Soucek to get Robbo/TAA in a 442.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Jota unlikely to start and Spurs next. DCL without Hames and others not back soon. Jota+DCL to Grealish+Bamford for -4 tempting now.

      2. Flair
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Will move him on for Grealish next GW

      3. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I like the Soucek and TAA/robbo move

    24. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jota and DCL to bamford and pulsic -4?

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Considering similar with Grealish atm. Has to be close. Jota us a doubt niw and Spurs next, DCL has Che and injuries in team.

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Have already got grealish

    25. yalala
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      With the yellow flag.. bench Jota for the Welbz?

    26. CroatianHammer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      The time to play it safe is when in a commanding position... and while I'm by no means struggling, I will likely captain Jota this weekend. At this stage it's impossible to second and third guess Kloppep. Their power is too great.

      4-5-1 the formation, and there's something calming about leaving the final gameday for the potential haul.

    27. OptimusBlack
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Welbeck Good Gamble or get Watkins

      1. Mr Wolf
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I would go Watkins if you can afford it. Still not convinced Wellbeck can play all fixtures during Xmas period.
