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.

    Folks, would you do, Robbo + Jota-> Salah + 4.4 def(Alioski) for a -4?

    Not ideal losing Robertson but not many ways to get Salah.

        in our defence Klop moaned about the fixtures yet in a game that was meaningless he played Jota and Salah.
        Perhaps he should shut him mouth in future as hes shot himself and us in the foot. I blame Klopp. DO you think there is a chance Jota starts? he didnt start last prem game

          I really don't understand why they both played 90mins. Absolutely pointless.

          Well if he's got a knock that throws even more doubt. I'm a Jota owner, bought him in this week so I'm annoyed I've put myself in this position to be honest.

          Jota's got a knock, which could have happened in training even if he'd played 0 mins midweek. Early transfers are always a risk - you can't blame anyone else when they backfire

            PLease allow us to blame Klopp? the injury was picked up in the game... we must blame Klopp! 😉

            Obv i am annoyed with myself too. Ive already taken a -4 so I think the right thing to do is pray he plays, failing that coufal comes on for 1 point?

        Jumped on the bandwagon as the wheels were falling off.

        Realistically now it’s an 8 point hit to get Salah without selling one of KdB or Bruno, neither of which I want to sell.

        May just keep him this week and hope he gets some minutes on Sunday and scores.

        My rank is crap anyway so another red arrow won’t make much difference anymore.

    Think I'm resigned to not getting Salah this week, do I cut my losses with Abraham and get Bamford like I should have done in the first place?

    James / Dier / Justin

    Kane / Bamford / Watkins
    Subs: Vestergaard / Romeo / Coufal

    I really want Vestergaard in the starting lineup to be honest, but I don’t know who to take out…

      Watkins if you have to, but I probably would leave Jan on the bench
