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.

    Please convince me against going DCL to Wilson for a hit. Surely, even with the fixtures, Newcastle are too ravaged to justify it?

      Up the Wilson

      I’m thinking of doing the same move...although he has been fairly consistent, DCL’s fixtures aren’t great

  6. Amartey Partey
    • 5 Years

    Jota injured?

  7. Dirty Harry
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Klopp saying Jota has a niggle and needs a check.

    Should I ship for free?

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I am now worried about jota - I was Previously thinking ship to a) mount b) JWP or c) Bowen???

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’ve been waiting for an excuse to ditch him, don’t even want him vs Spurs.
      But I’ll start him this week anyway, got KWP as cover who has a decent home fixture.
      Who’s ur cover for him?

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        My problem is I stupidly bought him in this week early. I've really shot myself in the foot with this.

        Cover is Poodence

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          Gotta keep him then, Podence is decent cover. Tricky call who to start then tbh out of those two, Jota could start still.
          Bit torn myself, start KWP or Jota, think I’ll start Jota as if he starts I’ll kick myself, KWP good fixture though.

          1. Dirty Harry
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            JWP definitely a good fixture.

            Its the perfect game to bench/rest Jota. Why risk him... Though Klopp risked him and Salah mid week.

            I've just ballsed up my transfer this week. So filthy

              • 3 Years

              Cheers v tempted by JWP with ings back

  8. Henning

    Salah and Soucek in for Fernandes and Zaha ?

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Would you be benching Soucek?

      1. Henning
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        This Gw yes.
        Or i can do Fernandes and Jota/Zaha out for Salah and Soucek/Jwp?

  9. Kloppcorn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Which of these duos do you guys think I should go for?
    A: Kane, Jota (Already have)
    B: Son, Cavani
    C: Fernandes, Giroud

  10. Nespinha
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    These are my best bets to get SALAH in, pick one:

    A) Son + DCL --- Salah + Welbeck

    B) Bellerin + Son + DCL --- Dallas + Salah + Adams (-4)

    C) Mitchel + Grealish + Son --- Douglas + Raphinha + Salah (-4)

    D) Bellerin + Grealish + Son --- Dallas + Gross + Salah (-4)

    E) Robbo + Grealish + DCL --- Dallas + Salah + Bamford

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I wouldn’t be looking at taking out grealish or son or DCL

      1. Nespinha
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Then I should forget salah for now.

        2FT - Mitchell to Douglas to save more money?

        1. Kloppcorn
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 10 months ago

          I’d take bellerin out for a 4.5 probs

          1. Nespinha
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 10 months ago

            Could be Dallas, I was just keeping Bellerin for the double Home games

  11. Alisson WondHaaland
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Have 2 FT but no idea how to use them, any of these worth it?

    A) Jota to Mount
    B) Jota to JWP
    C) Jota + Vardy to Wilson + Son
    D) Jota + Vardy to Welbeck + Bruno

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’d go D mate

  12. Mufc202020
    • 5 Years

    Please someone tell me getting Mane in instead of Salah is a good idea. Guaranteed 90mins

    1. AnfieldLad
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I don’t like it. Maybe it works this week but Salah is so much better long term

    2. Zimo
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Not long term. Probably not short term now either with the Jota knock

    3. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Nope mane has been in poor form in front of goal

    4. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      you shouldn't bring players in based on if they may play more minutes just next week. Salah is better long term, so get him in

  13. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Martinez
    Chilwell Dias Lamptey
    (S)alah KDB Bruno Grealish Jota
    DCL Bamford

    (Steer Brewster Kilman Mitchell)
    -4 & 1.2m

    What do with Jota?

    Already took a hit to do Vardy & Ziyech to Salah & Bamford.

    Was hoping I could hold onto him for another 2 games and then sell him for Soucek to get Robbo/TAA or try and upgrade him to Son.

  14. Bobby Digital
    • 7 Years

    Play one out of:

    A. Lewis
    B. Coufal
    C. Targett

  15. LIARS POKER
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    I am completely stuck on what to do, which option looks best? All would be for free (2 ft)

    A) Ziyech, DCL -> Son, Bamford
    B) Ziyech, Bruno -> Salah, Bowen
    C) Ziyech, Kane -> Salah, Bamford

    Currently leaning towards A

    1. Oliver Tockman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      A

  16. Nightcrawler
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Was going to get Mane in now

    Bit not sure now. Shd i just get Salah instead now?

  17. Reeker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Martinez
    James - Robertson - Dallas
    KDB - Salah - Son - Grealish - Rodriguez
    DCL - Bamford
    (Peacock-Farrell) (Lamptey) (Brewster) (Mitchell)

    1 FT - 0.9 ITB

    Was going to do Rodriguez to Jota but even before the niggle I wasn't sure about him anymore.

    Any insight to help?

    Could do Rodriguez to Ward Prowse?

    Could do Rodriguez + Brewster to Soucek and Wilson (-4)

    Now starting to think I just save which gives me a lot of options next week to switch around my team.

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      If save the transfer mate

      1. Reeker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah felt all week that I just need to get rid of Rodriguez but I just need take a step back and realise he still plays and he's pretty good at football. Better off just setting myself up better for next week.

  18. Nightcrawler
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Also other question is

    Sell Kane or Bruno for Salah?

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’d sell Kane out of them but who are you bringing in?

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Bench fodder. Bissuma to Salah. Have 2 FTs

  19. Kloppcorn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Which of these duos do you guys think I should go for?
    A: Kane, Jota (Already have)
    B: Son, Cavani
    C: Fernandes, Giroud
    Any help would be much appreciated

    1. Nespinha
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Hard one, because the 2nd option is not nailed in any team.
      I would say A, Jota will play more than the others.

  20. Starky22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Fanteam question:

    Do you get your highest scoring sub from the bench or is it order of subs?
    Best to play 2 injured players in starting 11 and have 3 playing men on bench? Therefore eliminating the risk you bench the wrong one?

    1. Pipermaru
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Same as FPL, order of subs.

      -8 in the bag

      1. Kloppcorn
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        What moves?

        1. Party time
            3 years, 10 months ago

            Ziyech, Thiago, Chilwell Out
            Salah, Bednarek, Targett(bench) In

          • Party time
              3 years, 10 months ago

              Martinez
              Creswell, Dallas, Bednarek
              Bruno,Kdb,Salah,Klich
              DCL,Bamford,Vardy.

              Vardy(C) 😉

              1. AnfieldLad
                • 10 Years
                3 years, 10 months ago

                Bringing Salah in for a -8 to captain Vardy seems nonsensical

                1. Party time
                    3 years, 10 months ago

                    Yeah. You’re right. Apparently I am a non sensical fella with big balls
