Salah and de Bruyne sold by chunk of top 10k managers this week

A chunk of high ranking Fantasy Premier League managers opted to sell Kevin de Bruyne (£10.0m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) for Gameweek 8.

The Manchester City midfielder was ruled out of the meeting with Wolves this weekend after suffering a groin injury against Everton.

Manager Pep Guardiola described the issue as “not serious” this week and seemed optimistic that de Bruyne would be back after the upcoming international break.

However, that relatively positive update on the player was not enough for a sizeable portion of managers currently ranked inside the top 10,000 places worldwide.

Going into Gameweek 7, de Bruyne was sat in 85.8% of teams at this level, more than any other Fantasy asset.

However, his ownership in the top 10k dropped to just 59.9% for the Gameweek 8 deadline.

That represents an ownership drop of 25% at this level of the game.

Some of that might be influenced by a change of personnel inside the top 10k, but considering de Bruyne scored nine points against Everton, it seems unlikely that many teams without him earned green arrows into the upper echelons.

Considering the Belgian international was sold by 795,000+ managers worldwide for Gameweek 8, it seems likely that his drop in top 10k popularity was heavily influenced by these sales.

The Fantasy community will almost certainly be holding its collective breath over the international break as we await further information on de Bruyne’s recovery – so it will be interesting to see how much ground can be gained by this chunk of managers as they go without him for at least Gameweek 8.

All eyes will be on de Bruyne’s fitness situation after the international break

Another premium option moved on by this season’s highest-ranking Fantasy managers was Liverpool man Salah.

He was sat in just 54% of top 10k teams at the Gameweek 8 deadline, a drop of 16% from the 66.1% recorded ahead of Gameweek 7.

Those sold the Egyptian for Gameweek 8 breathed a sigh of relief on Saturday afternoon as Liverpool were largely restricted by Leicester City.

The Reds did win the match courtesy of a James Milner (£5.3m) penalty but it was scored after Salah had come off with a knock.

Whether he would have taken it had he still been on the pitch is hard to say given that Milner has historically taken spot-kicks even when sharing the field with Salah.

The injury did not look too serious at the time and he will have an international break without any match duties to recover.

However, Jurgen Klopp did seem angry about the challenge on him from Hamza Choudhury (£4.5m) and did not paint a positive picture.

“How can he be okay? He was limping from the pitch and you ask me if he’s okay! How can he be okay?! Did you watch it back? Watch me, what do you think?” – Jurgen Klopp

With De Bruyne and Salah both losing support among the top 10k, it is interesting to see which premium options increased in popularity for Gameweek 8.

It appears one of the most common recipients of those players’ funds was Raheem Sterling (£12.1m).

The England international’s popularity within the top 10k rose from 30.6% to 38.2% for Gameweek 8.

However, Sergio Aguero (£12.2m) also saw a dip in popularity for this weekend, dropping from 52% ownership in the top 10k for Gameweek 7 to just 40.5% for Gameweek 8.

To see where some of these funds have been moved to, a look at the Gameweek 8 Wildcard template among the top 10k gives us some clues.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang‘s (£11.0m) recent form has convinced 49.8% of managers at this level who Wildcarded this week to include him in their squad ahead of Bournemouth’s trip to the Emirates Stadium.

Also included among the most popular Wildcard targets was Riyad Mahrez (£8.6m) selected by 36.2% of top 10k Wildcarders for Gameweek 8.

The absence of de Bruyne from this selection shows that the Algerian has been pounced upon as a short-term opportunity while the Belgian is out.

Despite Aubameyang’s popularity on those Wildcards, and being signed by 210,000+ managers worldwide, for Gameweek 8, the top 10k were not particularly interested in him for the captaincy this week.

It was a close-run thing for the most popular captain in the upper echelons of the world rankings, Aguero and Sterling both backed by a similar amount.

It was the Argentinian who topped the charts for top 10k captains, 23.5% of them handing him the armband for that meeting with Wolves.

Meanwhile, 22.5% placed the armband on Sterling and 13.9% went for Salah.

Aubameyang did not appear in the top three and made up the 40.1% chunk representing ‘Other’ captains.

Aubameyang was captained by just 13% of managers in the top 10k in Gameweek 8, while 6.8% went for Teemu Pukki (£7.2m) and 4.5% backed Harry Kane (£11.0m).

Finally, another look at general chip usage among the top 10k shows that they are becoming more and more a reliable test of high performance.

40% of the managers at this level are yet to use a chip this season, while 37.1% of them have played just one.

According to the breakdown, it is the Wildcard that remains the most popular, used by 39.5% so far.

          Ahhh, in that case if you wanna catch any risers just pull the WC out

    Current team

    Pope Button

    What you think) leaves no Pool attack but double def? Perhaps robbo to pereira until GW11

      No need for double Liverpool defence with their upcoming fixtures IMO.

      1. Neves say Never
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I’m leaning that way too. Fitting in Mané or someone is tough

    2. Pacer.
      • 9 Years

      Liverpool are looking more solid in the league. They won't face many sterner tests than Leicester today.

      You can see they tighten up a bit when they face a team with serious threat.

      Fixtures wouldn't be my concern about the Liverpool defence, whether they look any good would be. And they're passing the eye test now, for me. I'll be going with two at the back and leaving three slots available in attack for costly city heavy hitters.

      When both teams were on 7 matches

      Goals per game

      Liv 2.5
      City 3.8

      It just makes more sense to go with Liverpool at the back and city at the front, to me. I trust they'll come good

      1. Neves say Never
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        That’s some good logic. Hopefully further enhanced with Allison returning after the break. Ofc if Poch leaves and it’s all change at spurs (speculation) then who knows

        1. Pacer.
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I'm not a fan of using free transfers to rotate around cheaper or less reliable defenders. Premium defenders DO suddenly become essential and mucking about with cheapies ultimately is unreliable and costs transfers and free hits, not least because the purpose of it is to free up money, to use on... transfers. I all often becomes a consuming mess that imo can be more inefficient than holding onto premium defenders who are 'underperforming' for a period. Guess it's all about preferences, but i'd rather set and forget (unless their form is actually disasterous eg spurs). There's something to be said for it.

          1. Pacer.
            • 9 Years

            *hits, not free hits

            Agreed. I bought in Robertson to partner Trent a couple of weeks ago, looking ahead to the fixtures after the next couple, Liverpool go on a good run. Just need to strap my knee down and resist the temptation to bring in Tomori and use the funds elsewhere

  3. istanbul05

    4 years, 5 months ago

    Will obviously wait but initial thoughts on the below with 2 FTs?

    Pope, Button,
    VVD, Digne, Soyuncu, Lundstram, AWB,
    Sterling, KDB, Mane, Mount, Cantwell,
    Abraham, Pukki, Barnes

    Thinking Pukki, Barnes, Mane to:

    A) Auba, King, Maddison (-4)
    B) Vardy, Wilson, Dilva (-4)
    C) Vardy, King, Mahrez (-4)

    1. zotter
      • 14 Years

      Why sell Mane. Just Barnes digne awb to vardy and whoever

    Which Leicester are you/would you have on wildcard?
    Deciding between Vardy and Maddison especially tricky.

    1. Here's Tom with the We…
      • 12 Years

      Soy and Maddison.

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané

      Both. If I don't have Auba I'll be having Vardy and maddo

    5. some witty pun

      Vardy

    Sometimes managers need to accept they get it wrong. Marco Silva needs to accept he is wrong about zonal marking when defending set pieces. Switch to man-to-man.

          Taa, one of soy or tomori, KDB when fit, Mount and or Tammy, Auba, Sterling, Wilson or King, Burnley defender or keeper, Lundstram, Rico, Maddison or Vardy.

          They arent essential or anything like that but pretty decent imo, I like Doherty as well.

        Salah and Pukki to Mane and Wilson?
        Would mean I have to give Barnes 1 more week.

        1. zotter

          No. Both are kneejerk.

        2. Salah’s Sonnet

          Sounds ok but i wouldn’t like losing Salah

            • 12 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Want rid of Pukki and Barnes ideally. Don’t know which 2 forwards I’d replace them with

            1. have you seen cyan
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              watch King & Wilson tomorrow, pick one of them.

                • 12 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                I’d have to sell someone else to get Wilson though. So I guess Barnes to King is the move

          early thoughts for me next week after IB are gonna be Salah and Pukki to KDB and Vardy. If KDB fit!

          Pope
          TAA Otta Soyuncu Rico Lunds
          Salah Sterling Yarmolenko Mount Cantwell

          I reckon Abraham will blank tomorrow.

          Which will lead to a mass exodus of Abraham /Barnes /Pukki to Wesley / Maupay / Haller / Ayew

            • 4 Years

            I guess that would be good for me as I've been running with Pukki, Haller & Ayew for a while now. The Palace Hammers game was the first time one of my strikers had scored in 3 weeks

              Likely getting rid to fund upgrade of Pukki to Vardy, Mahrez or Maddison two upmost in my mind at the moment. I'll sit on it for a while. He's obviously still a great player but Spuds are a bit of a mess at the moment and it just reduces his value too much, better options elsewhere.

            Looking like I need to take some hits. Would love some feedback on my alternatives 1 FT & 1.6 ITB

            Pope ( Button )

            TAA - Tomori - Otamendi ( Soyoncu, Lundstram )

            Salah - Sterling - KDB - Mount - Mcginn

            Pukki - Abraham ( Wickham )

            A : Pukki > Wilson ( Free )
            B : Salah, Pukki > Auba & Maddison ( -4 )
            C : Salah, Pukki, Wickham > Auba, Maddison & King ( -8 )
            D : Other suggestions

            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Who to bring in? (A) Yarmolenko (B) McGinn

            1. lordkippe
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Yarmolenko at this point, looking at AVLs fixtures

            2. Eleven Hag
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Both of them gonna become another Pukki soon

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

                Nah. Both better teams than Norwich. But if you have any other 6m mids you can throw at me, be my guest.

                1. zotter
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 5 months ago

                  This. Norwich are crap. West Ham much better

            3. zotter
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              A

            4. have you seen cyan
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              both good, could go either way. I like Yarmo more, more dangerous

            5. Maddamotha
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Neither

            6. St Pauli Walnuts
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              I really like McGinn but don't want to get onboard until the fixtures are better for Villa. He's still cheap enough just to watch for now I reckon.

          4. Eleven Hag
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Bus Team set

              strong team

          5. mrodgers91
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            VVD guendouzi pukki > pereira maddison king for a -8
            Maybe too kneejerk but fed up with liverpools lack of clean sheets and leicester fixtures look tasty

            1. zotter
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Who do you bench instead of guendozi

              1. mrodgers91
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                Cantwell, dont even know how i ended up with both on my team

            2. Pacer.
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              You'll think again when The Douze racks up his first ever league goal tomorrow

          6. zotter
            • 14 Years

            Any transfers with this bus team? If kdb fit would do salah to kdb

              Last bench is Lund sorry

            How does this wc look?

              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              I would get king over Wilson. Mane over sterling. Aguero over Auba

              1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
                • 12 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                Thanks will consider those but think I want auba for arsenal's kind fixtures

            2. lordkippe
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Like it. Looks really strong.

          8. Bring back Rafa
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Apologies if this has already been asked or to early to know (living on the other side of world and don't get much info apart from here) but is there any update on if any of these injuries are serious:

            *Connolly
            * Lloris
            *Pieters

            If Hugo is serious might jump on the $4.4m GK and Taylor would be a steal at $4.2 if Pieters serioua

            1. zotter
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Hugo looks very serious

              What's your team valie - looks very low

              • 7 Years

              Like those moves - would just get Soy and Vardy I think

          10. Point-one short
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Which do you prefer?

            A) Aguero, Son, 4.6 def
            B) Firmino, Sterling, Aurier

            Fwiw have TAA, Soy, Diop, Lund. Would look to transfer Aurier to Tomori in B after next gw.

            Thanks!

            • 9 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Which one would you do for -4?

            A. Vardy + Cantwell
            B. C.Wilson + Maddison

            1. FC Hakkebøf
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Who are you transfering out?

              1. tissae
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 5 months ago

                Pukki and potentially Cantwell aswell

                1. FC Hakkebøf
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 5 months ago

                  B for me

            2. Point-one short
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Rest of team? A likely better unless you're needing to play Cantwell each week...

            3. Old Gregg
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              B

            How quickly are the FFS Opta stats updated? Seems very fast.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Salah and Pukki to Mane and Wilson for -4? I only have the exact amount so should I do it now to be safe?

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years

              Might need another -4 tomorrow.

              Yeah, I'll wait and see, knee is jerking after such a poor GW!

            • 11 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Is Soy, Maddison and Vardy too much Leicester

            1. Point-one short
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              No, just the right amount

            2. Business Cat
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Nah. Why not triple up with the good fixtures.

              I'm trebled up on City and Chelsea currently

          15. Fpl-king
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Any chance any of these players don’t play? I already know the answer but there is hope.

            Otemendi, Rico, Mount, Wilson,

            Have Connolly waiting to come on with his Haul

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Small chance.

            2. Point-one short
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Outside chance Rico doesn't play - but think a those will start unfortunately

            3. Business Cat
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

              Rico the likeliest of those...don't fancy your chances though

          16. SB8
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Next gameweek is the first this year
            I can't choose the best captain option in 5 seconds

          17. FC Hakkebøf
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            A) Pukki -> King -4
            B) Pukki -> Jota
            C) Pukki + Son -> Vardy + Maddisson -4
            D) Aguero + Pukki + Son +-> Auba + Vardy + Mahrez -8
            E) Aguero + Pukki -> Auba + Wilson -4

            If D I would prolly wait another gameweek before pulling the trigger.. But it could pay off pretty quickly if Mahrez obtains gametime (not sure what the latest news is on the Bilva ban)

            Current team:

            Pope
            TAA Tomori Soyuncu
            Sterling KDB Son Mount
            Aguero Abraham Pukki
            ____
            Button; Hayden Lundstram Kelly

            Mahrez price rise on the way in 4 hours.
