Top 10k back Salah with the Gameweek 26 armband as Mane exodus continues

Despite Manchester City having a fine-looking home fixture against West Ham United on Sunday, the top 10,000 managers in Fantasy Premier League have largely backed Mohamed Salah (£12.7m) for the Gameweek 26 captaincy.

Over two-thirds of the top 10k tossed the armband to the Egyptian ahead of this morning’s deadline, although they’ll have to wait a week before they see the premium midfielder in action.

Salah and Kevin De Bruyne (£10.8m) are both owned by over 90% of the managers within the top 10,000 but significantly fewer Fantasy bosses have made the Belgian their skipper.

Only 8.42% of this elite bunch have captained De Bruyne, which isn’t enough to lift his effective ownership (a figure influenced by captaincies and benchings) beyond the 100% mark.

Sergio Aguero (£12.1m), indeed is a more popular captaincy pick in the top 10,000 despite being owned by around one-third of the FPL managers that De Bruyne is.

Over half of the Argentine striker’s owners within the top 10,000 have skippered him in Gameweek 26.

Outside of the premium trio we have mentioned above, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.8m) is the only other FPL asset to have been captained by more than 1% of the top 10k in Gameweek 26.

De Bruyne is the most-popular vice-captain candidate, meanwhile.

It was a fairly quiet week in terms of chip usage, with only a smattering of the top 10,000 deploying their Triple Captain (30), Free Hit (16) or Bench Boost (60) chips.

The second Wildcard was a more popular option, however, with almost 400 of our leading managers overhauling their squads.

The Triple Captain remains the most-used chip in the second half of the campaign, with Double Gameweek 24 accounting for a large chunk of the figure above.

John Lundstram‘s (£5.0m) loss of a first-team place – amongst other factors – might have been a big trigger in terms of Wildcard deployment, with the ‘out of position’ FPL defender so widely owned.

Lundstram understandably doesn’t feature in the Gameweek 26 Wildcard template above, with Dean Henderson (£5.1m) instead proving the most popular route into the Sheffield United backline despite blanks in Gameweek 28 and 31.

The fact that Nick Pope (£4.7m) is so highly owned perhaps suggests some of the more forward-thinking of our top 10k have accounted for this with a playing reserve shot-stopper.

Salah, De Bruyne and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) are highly owned options in these Wildcard squads, with Danny Ings (£7.0m) the most-popular forward.

Compared to the overall template below, there are a not-insignificant seven differences – which could dramatically affect the ranks of those who used their Wildcard in Gameweek 26, for better or for worse.

In terms of the overall template in the top 10k, there are two changes to the ‘most-owned’ squad from Gameweek 25: Henderson and Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) replacing Pope and Diego Rico (£4.3m).

Sadio Mane (£12.2m), incidentally, is now only owned by 13.74% of the leading group of Fantasy managers – a dramatic drop on his ownership figure of 75% ahead of Double Gameweek 24.

As we ready ourselves for the blanks and doubles on the horizon, many of the top 10k still have plenty of chips in hand.

Around one in seven haven’t used any, while just over 50% still have three chips in their back pocket.

Approximately one in ten of the top 10k have just one chip remaining, while 3.6% have already maxed out.

      Phew

    Is there a massive difference between Lascelles and Fernandez? Can we expected a bigger difference in points than 10 pts in the next 5-7? Anticipating those baps going Fernadez's way but those 0,2 could come handy.

    1. JustPark
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I wish I knew really.

    2. Vlad Tepes
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      went Lascelles as he will be my 4/5 th choice every week, which means he will often be on the bench. Do not wanna tie up to much on the bench if he rarely plays.

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years

      In short yes. Fernandez is the much better player. Our best defender. Our best goal threat. Lascelles is awful at times. I’d say it’s well worth the 0.2 imo

      1. Skonto Rigga
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Ha! Just saw your comment seconds after mine. Definitely agree he's our best CB right now although that doesn't necessarily translate into FPL returns (more blocks etc helps for bonus, of course). And I'm with you on Lascelles being hit and miss at times but that scarcely seems to matter to Bruce or Benitez before him, regarding selection.

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah but it’s not like he’s 0.5 more. You can lose 0.2 overnight

          1. Skonto Rigga
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            I'm actually agreeing with you that Fernandez is a) the better defender in real-life terms and b) carries more goal threat/bap-attraction. But the fella above asks if there is going to be a 10pt-difference over 5/7 games and I'm not sure there will be. Attacking returns from CBs are hard to second-guess in a short period of time, considering that even the best of them might get 5/6 goal/assists over the course of an entire season.

      2. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed - well worth the extra 0.2 (and happy with my decision to get him last week.)

    4. Skonto Rigga
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not a massive amount, especially over a short period of time. Based on security of starts, Lascelles the most 'nailed' (rightly or wrongly) as the club captain and has started every match when available. Fernandez has strung together 16 starts in a row and looks the next most-secure but we've Schar and Lejeune waiting in the wings and I think it would only take a couple of iffy displays at the back for Bruce perhaps to switch things round (the likes of Clark, Dummett and Lejeune have all dipped in and out recently). Fernandez with the slightly better goal threat and bap-rate.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Are you a toon fan? Lascelles is the pits! His baps are awful too

    5. barracuda
      • 7 Years

      Cheers troops, might go Fernandez

    6. Cruz88

    Decent enough start for non owners. Richa and DCL don't have that many owners and those who own are casuals who aren't threat to OR anyway

    2FTs. Kun >> Ings tonight? Or wait? Got some planned moves and tight on money.

      You know the safe answer

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        What’s the unsafe answer? 🙂

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          To make it before Ings / your other players play

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Reason for tonight?

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Ings rise

    3. Queens of the South Age
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Tough one. If you have to do or will be priced out then go for it or you might be annoyed you didn't.

      I'm waiting to ditch Kun in 28 to fund Mane probably.

  6. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Stop buying Ings you ***** 🙂

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Well said Rafa. Fwiw aguero will surely rise after he belts a hatty. I'd do your move though

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Problem is if Ings gets injured haha

      2. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Looks like Ings might not rise anyways so I could be safe! See how Kun, Mahrez and KDB do tomorrow

  7. Ronnies
    • 8 Years

    Best replacement for Holgate ?

    A) J. Stephens

    B) C. Taylor

  8. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I notice that most managers have 11 players left for the rest of the game week. An average of about 4 points scored for 1 player played (in the matches played so far) is quite high.

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      1 player? From the 6milions players?

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        😀

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Mainly DCL and Rich

    3. LarryDuff
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      11 from DCL 😉

    4. noquarternt
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      It’ll all be Rich and DCL. Some will have both as well.

  9. Chasing Waves

    Hiya

    As A Richarlison owner Im wondering if there are any other owners in the community who have him? And if so, what are the plans for him? Dodgy fixtures incoming but don’t think he blanks, if that’s sort of right.

    Thanks all

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Are the the first three of those 4 red fixtures really all that bad?

    2. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He has decent chance of returning in next 2 still. If you have nothing pressing I would hold.

    3. Tomerick
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not got Richarlison but do I’ve DCL so similar planning going on here. I’m looking to swap him for Jimi or Ings so I’d suggest Richi to Traoré or Redmond.

    4. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Got him before Watford game and keeping for the long haul. Can score v anyone plus playing striker and no blanks to worry about

    5. Chasing Waves
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks guys

    6. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I was bringing him in for Moura this week and then switched my transfer because of his upcoming run . . . not that you can ever trust an Everton team anyway.

    7. clodhopper
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      You have to play him against arsenal surely

  10. OleGGMU
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sitting on 2 Fts and not sure which route to take keeping Blank gw28 in mind

    Current XI
    Hendo
    TAA (v), Robbo, Holgate
    Salah (c), KDB, Rich, Grealish*
    Auba*, Ings, Jimi
    Bench : Pope, Traore, Lund*, Lascelles
    0.8 itb
    A) Auba + Lund + Rich -> DCL , Charlie Taylor
    B) Auba + Rich -> Vardy + Son
    C) Auba + Grealish -> Vardy + CHO
    D) Auba -> Vardy/DCL

    Advice much appreciated lads

    1. fgdu

      1. fgdu
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        lund -> shu def, auba -> DCL, but keep your eyes peeled for good striker options.

  11. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Who needs to go first, Holgate, Lundy or Soy?

    Soys fixtures look good soon, Holgate 1 pt cameo & poor fixtures.....

    Fernandez looks best value?

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I am selling Holgate for Stevens. Don't have Lundy & Soy anymore.
      Wait and see if Lundy start tomorrow and then decide.

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Going to watch Fernandez, he might be rising tonight?

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Holgate if Lund starts, Soy the last one (nailed & good fixtures coming up)

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Feeling Lundy will be back?

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          There is chance but would get rid personally regardless

    3. Chasing Waves
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Lundy gotta go, even if he does start this gw you will then have the same predicament the next gw, then a blank in 28 etc. Whether u have value or not in him... gotta go

  12. Woy_is_back

    DCL owners will fall for his flukey returns this game and keep him over those bad fixtures, glorious 😀

    1. Brosstan

      Nope. This was and remains his last game in my team. Not because I don’t think he can deliver in those matches but because I think there’s others who can outscore.

      It was always his last game for me. Held him specifically for cpa , and it worked out.

    4. benbro

      I’ve had my money’s worth from DCL and acknowledge he really isn’t very good but

      1.at his price point is there a better points getter

      And

      2. Are the fixtures actually that bad?

    5. iyiy
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      He has 6 goals in his last 8, what a fluke...

      1. Woy_is_back
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I haven´t seen all his goals but the one today was a freaking ridicolous joke.

      How does anyone think of (c) Richalison this week . . . I swear there's shenanigans at the top of this league at times.

  13. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Which?

    A) dcl sidibe -4 to jimi egan/boly/5.1 def.
    B) dcl ryan -4 to jimi mcarthy

    1. fgdu
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      probably both to be honest, over two weeks. If you can field a good team without sidibe then B, otherwise A.

      DCL out not worth -4 imo.

      1. Nightf0x
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Ryan (buton)
        Lascels taa sidibe (soy lund)

        Plan is jimi def. In this gw then lund out next gw then gw29 ryan out

      Most people haven't even had 1 player play and yet people are getting salty?! Should just be saying fair play for picking/sticking with Rich or DCL!

    McCarthy

    Who to transfer out for Jimenez:

    1. DCL

    Thanks

  20. Wild Rover

    What’s the story with Webster? Rested or dropped? Really don’t need another non starter for gw28

  21. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years

    Just in, been out all day w dad visiting me at uni.

    Just came to say, cheers DCL ya sexy beast.

    Who hanging onto him through the fixture turn though?

    1. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Well done ya filthy casual.

      I don't think I'm keeping though, you?

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Probably not tbh. Jimenez beckons. Or a downgrade and switch to 352 we’ll see

    2. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Mind you he missed a sitter in injury time... beggars can’t be chooses though, we’ll all take 11 points won’t we!!

      I had DCL >> Jimenez lined up... now unsure whether to lose DCL or Vardy (better fixtures) for him?!

  22. zes
    • 8 Years

    Would probably get rid on WC but got more pressing concerns atm like managing gw28. Anyway, I wouldn’t bet against him scoring against arsenal, Chelsea or Man U atm

      Just the odd Cup Finalist who has him on his boosted bench. So unlucky

        But then you are such an arse I guess you knew this

          Wtf? I was asking if there were any unlucky owners. Precious

      3 times sub-zero this season -2 -2 -1

        Wonder what the record is for most negative scores in a campaign!?

        1. Greek Freak
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Has to be Dunk two years ago. Was it 4-5 own goals or something?

          1. IRBOX ⚽
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            True!

          2. Party time
              4 years, 1 month ago

              3. I had him in all until he finally smashed a goal for Brighton against arsenal

              1. Greek Freak
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 1 month ago

                Just looked it up - it was 4, but to have had him for 3 of them was horrible luck for sure.

            Wes Brown has a season playing in a Sunderland defence where he picked up a record number of reds in a season iirc, think it was 3

            Would guess he has a good chance of taking the crown

      thoughts on dropping Grealish for his upcoming tricky fixture run ?

      Could bring in Perez or alternatively use the money from the sale of Aguero next GW to bring in Son ??!!

      1. Jet5605
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Not keen on Son's games. I'm thinking Grealish > Harvey Barnes in GW28. Leicester have an amazing run and Barnes is only 6m

      2. benbro
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        In a weird way and at his price point is Grealish fixture proof?

        Depends if you can better use the money to upgrade elsewhere I guess but I wouldn’t be surprised if he averages 4-5 points per game now. Enough for his price point?

        1. @fpl_phenom
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Im looking at Hayden to Bruno Fernandes too as something a little bit different ..

          Not sure who to sell in GW28 out of Kun or Aubamayang ...

          1. benbro
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah I like Fernandes. Suspect Lascelles is the pick though

            1. benbro
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 1 month ago

              Doh!!

    5. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Can’t understand how Aguero has a lower EO than Vardy. Crazy.

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        His price requires compromise on team structure & blank & fixtures

        1. HuttonDressedasLahm
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          This. Everyone’s team balance is skewed to defence and mid
          Only him and Kane are in the top bracket, and since Kane was injured before Agueros run, it’s a bit tricky

          1. benbro
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Been plenty else to fix as well since Christmas as the new template emerged.

            Vardy bang off form but everyone kinda expecting a bounce back any minute.

            Aguero not nailed

      2. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Also, Pep roulette makes him a risky captain which he can’t be at that price

      Guaita owners(if there´s any left), are you selling? How bad has he become ffs

      1. Jet5605
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Holding. Next few games are why I bought him. Alternatives are poor. Watford have horrendous games and Sheff Utd have a blank in 28. Brighton are conceding every week. McCarthy is the only one I'd consider but would be for a hit.

        1. Woy_is_back
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          doing the same but frustrating

    7. Jet5605
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Currently have Holgate, Lund & Webster. Should I ship one for a hit? If so who to get for 5.2m or less?

    8. The Train Driver
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Player A assists/scores/keeps cs and is subbed for player B who also assists/scores/keeps cs and you have both in your team. Ever had this happened to you?

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I never get that kind of luck, no

      2. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Not possible for both to get clean sheets in 90mins

      3. FPL.team
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        How could they both get a clean sheet if one comes on for the other?

    9. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      those considering selling Richarlison as his fixtures turn, bear in mind he’s scored against
      WOL 2
      LEI 1
      LIV 1
      CHE 1
      MCY 1
      Already. Clearly likes a big game

      1. benbro
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Arsenal are bad.
        Utd are ???
        Chelsea aren’t bad but capable of being ordinary.

        Not many ways to better spend that money imho
