Has Salah finally shaken off his bonus points repellant?

Mohamed Salah (£13.4m) might have finally shaken off his aversion to bonus points this season as his Fantasy Premier League form continues to impress.

The Egyptian has recorded ten additional points through bonus in the last seven matches, which is 83% of his total for this year. If he continues at this rate, he could eclipse his tally for last season.

In the 2017/18 campaign, Salah broke the all-time FPL total score for a season but still only managed to add 26 bonus points.

A high number of off-target shots and offsides, as well as the fact that he was tackled fairly often, were all contributing factors to Salah dropping down the bonus points charts.

However, Liverpool’s number one attacker seems to have made improvements in all of those areas in recent weeks, to the extent that he has been averaging 1.43 bonus points per match since Gameweek 16.

In fact, Salah’s 11-point haul against Brighton in Gameweek 22 was the first match in which he has produced only one goal and earned bonus.

It was, of course, a match-winning goal, which does raise bonus points, but he has scored in two 1-0 wins before the one at the Amex Stadium and earned no bonus in either of them.

Prior to that, Salah has had to score another or provide an assist to put himself into consideration for the extra points on offer.

So that means something must have changed in his underlying statistics to endear him to the bonus points system (BPS) more than last season. Fantasy Football Scout members can read on and see more of our analysis…

    A) Jimenez+Sterling (-4)
    B) Agüero

      Jesus form making me nervous

      1. Lazaretti
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Jesus scored 2 goals against 10man Wolves. One tap in and one from the spot. Against Burton he scored 4, and maybe one against Rotherham. Before that Aguero scored vs Liverpool and against Soton if I remember correctly. Not so sure who is in better form....

          • 7 Years

          This madness

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

          Aguero in arguably better form but this site 5lthinks different loll

          1. Lazaretti
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            I would assume that even Zinchenko could have scored few goals against Burton or Rotheram if he would have been playing as a striker.

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      A

    3. Brehmeren
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Aguero too risky now

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

      Aguero + who? .Don't understand

      1. balint84
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        just kun, without -4

  2. SweeSwee
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Not much of a choice but, if you had to play one of these this week...

    AWB (vs Liverpool)
    Bennett (vs Leicester)

    Bennett seems like the higher CS potential, but then AWB will be getting 3bp, so it’s a tough one.

    1. Amey
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Bennet
      AWB is getting a -ve score this gw imo.
      Pool should destroy them

      1. BENOIT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Agree

    2. WVA
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He won't get 3 baps this week! Bennett definitely

    3. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Letting in 5 goals it is hard even for AWB to get a bonus.

    4. SweeSwee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I’ll play Robertson then.

      Bennett first sub

    5. Peter Ouch
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Awb is playing with Liverpool so Benny

    6. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Bennett easy.

  3. BENOIT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Need to bring in a budget forward. Best option?

    A) Llorente, 5.6 (ful, WAT, NEW, LEI, bur)
    B) Jiminez, 6.4 ( LEI, WHM, eve, NEW, bou)
    C) Ings, 5.8 (EVE, CPL, burn, CAR, ars, FUL)

    1. WVA
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ings

    2. SweeSwee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      B or C, I’d say Llorente is too risky until you know more about how Spurs will line up without Kane and Son

    3. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      B

    4. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I have B and C.
      A will assist Alli or Lamela IMO. (If he plays)

    5. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      B maybe a bit overpriced now. A too risky.ings the best out of that lot.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Consider Barnes ?

        1. BENOIT
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Dont like his fixtures. Or Burnley.

    6. The Mantis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      B

  4. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Alli or Eriksen?

    1. WVA
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Eriksen

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Ali.

    4. SweeSwee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Erik

    5. Peter Ouch
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli

    6. The 12th Man
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli

    7. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'd say alli as he ll play more forward. BUT he s been far from explosive this season...

    8. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli

    9. The Mantis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Erik

    10. Brehmeren
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Wait and see..

    11. Dele
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli

    12. jia you
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      both

    13. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alli will step up for sure though Eriksen is a better fantasy asset in general.

  5. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Morning guys, what would you consider to be the best GK rotating pair from now until the end of the season?

    1. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Wolves/Leicester is a bit of a punt but rotate well.

    2. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Pick one.

    3. SweeSwee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Flapihandski + cheapest non-playing GK

    4. Holmes
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      picking only 1 GK might result in more points

    5. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Just one set and forget

    6. Old Man
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Don't rotate - just get a a good goalie and a cheapie. Far too frustrating.

      1. Milk, 1 Šuker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I’m finding this right now! Thanks bud

    7. Amey
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Get Allison
      Don't waste a ft on keeper again.

    8. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Thank you all. I like the look of Lloris atm. If I had the space for Allison (I have three LIV already), he’d be in there. But the Spurs keeper looks a good Plan B.

  6. Up the tics
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Fabianski
    Robbo - Digne - Doherty
    Salah (c) - Sterling - Pogba - Richarlison
    Firmino - Rashford - Jimenez

    Team gtg? Bench is
    Camarasa - Bennett - AWB

    1. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Gtg

    2. Amey
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      G2G
      I like that defense as I've got the same 🙂

    3. King Kun Ta

  7. Amey
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Is AWB best 4m player ever ??
    I am playing from 6 years and I don't remember any other guy.

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He s by far the best yep !!

      1. Amey
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah.
        Cheers mate

    2. FPLAdmiral
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Possibly! Best value for money player all of time for me was Mahrez in the season Leicester won the title

      1. Amey
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah. Agree
        Salah last season if got early was insane value too.

      2. SweeSwee
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Kane in his first season was great too

    3. Depldax
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yep usually 4.0 guys just fill in for injuries. I can't remember a regular at 4.0 where you know he's going to play week in week out

      1. Amey
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah
        He looks best player from Palace team every time I watch them play.
        BEAST

        1. Old Man
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          He'll be snapped up by a big club in the summer I would expect.

          1. Amey
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Definitely.
            Would love if United gets him but chances are slim as already signed Dalot this year

            1. Old Man
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              Dalot looks good too - be nice to see him playing regularly.

    4. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yep. In line with Mahrez Kane and the forward I forget now.
      Big cock up from FPL towers. Well thought of before the season began.

      1. Amey
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah.
        Doherty has gone off the boil a bit but he has been good too this season

        1. Eze Really?
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Had both since GW1 and 3

    5. piquiblanco
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Remember Wardinho? He was pretty great under Pulis, people were going triple Palace in defence

      1. Amey
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Wow.
        Good to know.
        I wasn't playing@that time I think

    6. altan8797

      don't forget alli in his first season.

    A little help please chaps. 1 FT, 0m ITB -

    (A) Kane > Aguero (c)
    (B) Kane > Auba
    (C) Kane + TAA > Firmino + Shaw (-4)

    Fabianski
    Robertson, Digne, Doherty

    1. Amey

      B
      Can bin taa next gw as your defense is solid this gw.

    2. Beast Mode
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      B. Auba has a good clump of fixtures coming up

      1. FPLAdmiral
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        True, just don’t like Chelsea and City in the next 3. Tempted by Aguero for the next couple then switch to Auba

          • 7 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Chelsea and city are 2nd and 3rd best defenses in the league.I am doing this.Just don't cap him

    3. Whats the Huth
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Auba easy.
      It’s the move I’ve made too

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

      A but don't cap I think.Could obviously be worth capping tbh but just a bit too risky with so much salah backing

  9. Dacra
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Gah, VVD increased?!

    That wasn't supposed to happen.

    1. Holmes
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      It was suppose to

    2. SweeSwee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Don’t worry, Liverpool defense going to fall apart without Robbo

      1. Eze Really?
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Without Robbo?

        1. Old Man
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          OMG - that would be all I need to need the WC (of both varieties)

          1. Amey
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Ha ha

      2. altan8797
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        here comes another speculation

  10. offspinnersinahurry
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Took -8 to get this team as had to replace Son, Kane and TAA
    Alisson
    Van Dijk, Doherty,Femenia
    Pogba, Hazard, Salah , Fraser
    Aubameyang, Rashford, Jimenez

    Constructive criticism?

    1. The Mantis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Good team. -8 not the end of the world, only negative for head to heads. Just don't make a habit of it. Don't think you have much choice.

    2. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Many are taking hits. Out of the way now.
      Only Kiko is a concern for me

  11. Depldax
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Can anyone remember the season years ago when Johnny Evans was a bit of a temporary FPL beast for United? Wes Brown as well when Ronaldo was still around..

    1. Holmes
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Was living my life at that time I guess, so no clue 😉

    2. Old Man
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Vaguely, yes ..... he scored a few goals didn't he?

      1. Depldax
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah a goal or 2 I believe.
        Haha showing my age!

        1. Old Man
          • 13 Years

          Yeah - tell me about it! 😀

    1. dannyboy25

    5 years, 9 months ago

    Who would you FT in if you had no City player Sane, Sterling, KDB or none due to rotation.

    I think they are going to go crazy this week.

    1. dannyboy25
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sane

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sane the safest I think.

    3. Beast Mode
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sterling

    4. Dacra
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'm considering no City on wildcard. All see to prone to rotation and none have high enough ownership to hurt too much..

      Aguero and Sterling too expensive. Sane seems boring. Kdb too much uncertainty just coming back.

      Dunno..

    5. King Kun Ta
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I picked Sterling....feels like a differential

      Would spend less time here if I had something productive to do. *facepalm*

    Excited for the Richarlison’s haul tomorrow 😀

    1. dannyboy25
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Just taken him out so that's guaranteed

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Exciting.

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I did Anderson to Richarlison last week. He’s really catching my eye, bound to haul soon (I Hope)

    3. Old Man
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'm expecting nothing - he's in the departure lounge and I'll get rid when I have an available transfer. Or maybe when I haven't

    4. altan8797
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      he somehow managed to stay in my team due to injuries. excited to find out if I'm looking for a 2 points or 3 points cameo.

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I suspect 9 points

    5. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Don't care if he scores 4, I have banished him from my team

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Haha

    7 2 3 2 1 3 Patricio Total 18
    9 2 3 2 2 9 Fabianski total 27
    7 2 3 2 2 9 My choices total 25

    Definite argument for 1 keeper

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I never understand why people go two keepers.
      Even in tough fixtures. You might get surprised clean sheet like last week. Plus save points

      1. altan8797
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I dont' even feel comfortable with spending 4.0 to a sub keeper. 3.9 is ideal.

  19. altan8797
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    rate my team please. open to suggestions. will get robbo next week for taa.

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I’m getting Salah in and I have 5.8m to play with for a striker spot. If I’m going 3-5-2 what’s best?

    A) Get Ings and have a benching headache with Jimenez and Rashford

    B) Get fodder like Kamara

    C) punt on Solanke / Niasse he may come good?

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I’d not spread the funds around too much. Pump it all into one player. So you can get Kane back with ease if needs be

    2. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Keep money itb. Will help with midfield upgrade.

  21. Dacra
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Just need to see price of Higuain and injury update on Moura today as early as possible please..

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Higuain is a terrible move I reckon.

      1. Dacra
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I see him as an alternative to Firmino, who I dont think is a great pick.

        Higuaon would be a punt, need something to catch up points..

  22. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Think I’ll be doing Alonso to Robbo for -4.

    He’s hurt me enough and I can’t go without a Pool def for those fixtures. Everytime they keep a CS it’s +6 points in the Top 10k avg.

    Better assist potential, bps magnet and better fixtures than Alonso.
    Think he’ll replay the points instantly.

    Thoughts?

    1. King Kun Ta
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Agree

    2. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Luiz looks like the best Chelsea defender currently. Robbo is surely the best defender to own this season. Make your decision. 😉

  23. ZeBestee
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    I can't wait for another 15 pointer from Doherty, the Wolves Alonso. Managers are fast to forget the points he's been bringing in not long ago. Has a nice run of fixtures in the next 7 so i expect good returns and would be in starting 11 for most of those games.

    1. Old Man
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Don't expect a cleanie tomorrow - I think we'll score. Very mixed feelings with Pat & Doc in my team.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        He is far more attacking to depend on cleanie's only (ironically the important factor to own a defender). Doherty is my choice but Pat should do ok with the run imo.

        1. Old Man
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          I'm more worried about Pat than Doc - at the moment he cannot keep a clean sheet for his life.

    2. Dacra
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      After VVD increased last night, think I'll be going Alison / Doherty instead of Pat / VVD..

      Hope you're right.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        You should do well imho, if not better.

  24. The Blackadder
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Is Llorente going to get a little run in the team now, at 5.6 they have some nice fixtures?

    1. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      He definitely will while Kane and Son are not around. Spurs though have fixture congestion so i will try and avoid for now.

      1. bigbudgie
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        look at his minutes for this season haha

        1. ZeBestee
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Moura is injured but Lamela can't play as a striker imo.

    2. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Absolute cart horse of a last resort. Will maybe be thrown on with 10 minutes to go if they are losing. Otherwise I would be very surprised

      1. The Blackadder
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I think he may get a couple of goals, Trippier & Eriksen will be targeting his head.

        1. bigbudgie
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          may as well target an advertising hoarding. Wilbble!

    3. Dacra
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Nobody knows. Moura Lamela and Llorente fighting for 2 places. Hopefully we find out more today.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I bet Poch first choice attack:
        Alli Moura Lamela (Llorente bench)
        Big match Celsea/Spurs then all will be more clear.

        1. BENOIT
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years

    4. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years

      Have you gone stark raving mad, Blackadder?

      1. The Blackadder
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Well, it’s not like I’ve put some underpants on my head and a couple of pencils up my nose.

        1. Old Man
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Do you have a cunning Llorente plan?

          1. The Blackadder
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Up until last season, I’d finished five seasons on the spin inside the top 10k, I went for hunches like this one. I’d obviously been lucky though as last season and this the luck seems to have run dry!!

            1. Old Man
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              If he gets a start then he'd be a fantastic pick - it's just what Pot thinks. Good luck!

    5. BENOIT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I've debated this, but worried Moura will play upfront.

      I'm going Ings or Jimi instead...

  25. FPL ElasticO
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Best city midfielder to transfer in??

    A. Sane
    B. Sterling

    1. Eytexi
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sane

    2. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I did Sane. But i still think Sterling is the better though rotation is a bit of a worry with Mahrez lurking.

    3. King Kun Ta
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sterling

  26. Eytexi
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Which scores more:
    A) Rich this week + Pogba next
    B) Alli both weeks (-4)

    After that the team will end up the same, but not doing Rich to Alli (-4) will leave me priced out next week.

  27. balint84
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    press conference of Man City when will be?
    if you have known that Agüero surely start, would you buy him over Auba or Firmino?

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

      I prefer him but pep won't give away anything

    2. BENOIT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      You won't know that from a Pep presser

  28. FPL ElasticO
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    I have a situation here....
    TAA, Richarlison, Kane (injured/no form).... Is it worth taking -8 for these transfer in... Sane/ Alli/ 5.0 striker....???

    1. dannyboy25
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      depends who you have on bench

    2. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      no no no start again.
      A) Play Richarlison, bench TAA, Kane > Auba/Aguero or:
      B) Kane/Richarlison > Fodder/Sterling/Sane?

  29. dannyboy25
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    In your opinion, realistically what is the lowest OR that can still win FPL?

    1. Holmes
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      top 25k

    2. ZeBestee
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      lowest OR that can still win the FPL is...

      OR 1.

      1. ZeBestee
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Now is probably top 10k.

    3. A.T
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      2k

  30. Tsparkes10
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    What we saying lads?

    Fab
    Digne Doh Shaw
    Salah Sane Rich Anderson Pererya
    Rash Aubam
    (Button, Jimi, Alonso, AWB)

    Not ideal for them first 2 subs but can't see who I'd switch for. Prefer Burnley to Leicester hence Pererya over Jimi... and he is early game so exciting either way 🙂
