Who are the best FPL captain options for Gameweek 11?

Mohamed Salah (£12.9m) looks to be the leading captain candidate yet again for Gameweek 11, but are there any viable alternatives to the Egyptian for this upcoming round of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) action?

First, we will assess the fallout of the Gameweek 11 captain poll, before then analysing the best options, Rate My Team (RMT) and the Premier Fantasy Tools ratings ahead of Friday’s 18:30 GMT deadline.

THE CAPTAIN POLL

As you can see from the current results, Mohamed Salah is the runaway leader of the Gameweek 11 captain poll, having accumulated just under 50% of total votes from our users at the time of writing.

No other player has garnered more than 10% of votes at this stage, with Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.4m), fresh from his UEFA Champions League brace, in second backed by 8.19%.

Ivan Toney (£6.6m) occupies third-place with 7.86%, with Harry Kane (£12.1m) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.0m) just behind, with 4.01% and 3.9% respectively.

MOHAMED SALAH

    Not an uncommon question but…

    1FT already moved Gray to ESR.
    Would you move Dias to James (own Chilwell) or best to just hold and avoid the likely cameos in the coming weeks…

    Not too worried about the hit it’s more double che defence / no city defence
    Maybe post Burnley, City have better chance of cs in the next month or so?
    Yay or nay

      I would keep Dias. City have very good underlying defensive numbers and Dias will be churning out a lot of 6 pointers.

        It’s taken a lot for me to resist this move all week. Not usually a fan of doubling up and at least don’t have to worry about city lineup

            Absolutely. Good devil says hold, bad devil says take the hit you know you want to!

        Cheers. I’d be happy to take the hit if it were an obvious move but seems it’s a bit tortoise and the hare between these 2.
        Usually prefer the slow and steady but having fomo

      Wouldn't do it if you already have Chilwell

      Chelsea have conceded 3 goals from 10 XGc & James has scored 4 goals from 0.96 XG

      Anything can happen in a single game against Brunley of course, but longer term that sort of thing isn't going to reliably continue for James

      No hit necessary, this GW it could easily be Chilwell that hauls or neither, in which case you're already covered.

    Now I know A and B seem obvious but my tinkering mind says City could well concede or rotate and as for Maupay, well, Newcastle.

      There’s no Arsenal defender I’d want to play regularly.
      Would choose Dunk who’s assured of starts and bonus magnet

      As a Havertz and James owner this makes me happy.
