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.

    Quick vote on a -4

    Jota + Podence > Son + 4.5 (bench midfielder)

    1. Gunners in Haaland
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

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

        Best 4.5?

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

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

      No

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

      Who plays instead of 4.5 mid?

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

        I'd be playing 3-4-3 so the 4.5 is a bench spot.

    This site is just gonna turn into: you can’t sell X?!? You can’t sell Y?!?

    So we’re supposed to stick to the premiums we went for in GW8 for the rest of the season?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      That's what they think

    2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes pointless asking on here imo.

      If you need salah then you have to take a risk. Or end up with em all in mid and a very bad looking team

    3. Flair
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      The concept of opportunity cost is baffling to this site.

      anti-upside chasing 😆

    5. Seanigula
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      There have been plenty of times you can go without certain premiums, but you have to know when to bring them in...KDB certainly looks like one to currently have, but I got rid of him GW 5-8 without suffering

    Doing I’m doing Werner > Bamford what’s second transfer?

    A. Soucek > Grealish
    B. Son > Salah
    C. Bruno> Salah
    D. Mitchell >TAA

    1. JohnBlack
      • 6 Years

      B

    2. Oliver Tockman

      3 years, 10 months ago

      A

  4. Puyol Pants Up
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Best Ziyech replacement?

    8.1 to spend, already have Grealish.

    1. Sarri-ball
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I went jwp leaves 2.0 for upgrades aswell. Feel will tick along as a 4th mid

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

    DCL -> Bamford

    Yay or nay?

    1. suddenorgan
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      not unless you're doing something good with the cash

    2. Will
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I've done that to enable Mahrez > Salah

    We're so fickle, aren't we.
    Wednesday: Mo plays, so he's definitely not starting at the weekend
    Friday: Jota got a knock midweek, so Mo is 100% starting even if Klopp was previously planning to rest him

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      It's because we have access to klopp's brain

  7. balint84
    • 8 Years

    Bruno to KDB?

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      No way

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      No

  8. Rolls-Royce
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Robbo + Jota-> Salah + Alioski (-4) allows me the holy quadruplet.

    Martinez
    Chilwell James Alioski
    Salah KDB Bruno Son Grealish
    DCL Bamford

    Steer Lamptey Brewster Mitchell

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I wouldn’t sell Robbo before Fulham. That is CS almost 95%. Maybe some other way to get Salah?

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

      Looks good but I think Robbo could be a good long term option.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Can always buy back from GW15

  9. AzzaroMax99
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    G2G?

    Mendy
    Chilwell Dias Cresswell
    Salah(C) Kdb Jota Bruno
    DCL Bamford Watkins

    Forster Lamptey Anguissa Mitchel

  10. Saka White Rice
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Worst pick out of this list for my WC defense?

    Konsa
    Dallas
    Coufal
    Lamptey

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Maybe Konsa.

    2. Dexters Laboratory
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Lamptey.. I have him but it's a love hate relationship.

    3. Runaway
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      They all look good, I would drop based on how they rotate. In the long term Konsa and Coufal will have DGWs though, maybe one of the other 2

  11. Runaway
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    I think I am ready, G2G?

    Martinez
    Chilwell Dier KWP Dallas
    Salah (C) Bruno Son Grealish
    Vardy (V) Wilson

    4.0 Torres Lamptey Brewster

    Yayyy or nayyy

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      Not for me

    2. Rolls-Royce
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Long term, yes.

      1. Runaway
        • 12 Years

    Is Dallas is good options?

    1. weaver93

      Yes - good fixtures and OOP

  15. Rhodes your boat

    D) Ferguson to Douglas

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

    (Steer Brewster Kilman Mitchell)

    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 in a 442 or upgrade him to Son by downgrading DCL.

    1. AzzaroMax99
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I’m keeping. Already on -4 also.

      1. weaver93
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Same here.. he may still play

    2. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Sell Jota next gw for Soucek imo. I will do Vardy, Jota to KDB, Bamford next gw.

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

    McCarthy
    Cancelo, Chilwell, Lamptey
    KDB, Sterling, Bruno, Jota, Soucek
    Kane (c), DCL

    Steer, Brewster, Kilman, Branthwaite

    0.4 itb, 1FT

    Do I need to make a transfer, or save?

  19. Il Capitano
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    One more show of hands before I press the trigger. Losing Vardy as part of a - 4 isn't ideal I guess, but it gives me more flexibility next week for a potential KDB move, so I'm heavily leaning A atm.

    0.2m ITB - 1FT - WC available

    McCarthy (Button)
    Chilwell Zouma Justin (Mitchell Taylor)
    Bruno Sterling Son Grealish (Bissouma)
    Vardy DCL Adams

    A) Vardy + Sterling > Salah + Bamford (cash ITB for KDB in for Bruno or Son next week)
    B) DCL + Sterling > Salah + Bamford (would need to lose Salah to get KDB next week)
    C) Save and Vardy (C)

    1. Seanigula
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Tough call...I’d rather lose DCL then Vardy right now...but wouldn’t want to just bring in Salah for 1 week...so I’ll say A if you want Salah long term, B if not

      1. Il Capitano
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        I hear Hames is out for Everton, that plus DCLs fixtures makes him an easier sell for sure.

        I don't really want to start the ol' hokey-cokey with KDB-Salah though, will probably settle with A and have KDB + Salah in long term. Cheers.

    GTG?

    Meslier (Forster)
    James - Chilwell - Dias (Lamptey, Dunne)

    1. Karan14
      • 8 Years

      Yup you have decent cover for Jota in Lamptey.

      1. Flair
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Jota will play at least a few minutes for sure IMO

    2. Il Capitano
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yup

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Double Che defence to concede.

      Triple Liv midfield to crumble.

      Too lightweight in attack.

      Gtg

      1. Flair
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Get out of here, fool.

  21. Fudgy
    • 5 Years

    Bruno or Son out? It's unbelievably hard decision 🙁

  22. El Copo
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Bring in Trent or Robbo? I fancy Trent as a differential but worried he might not play this week.

  23. FantasyHero

    Very glad to finally be on double Chelsea defence with no Rodriguez, even if I own DCL

  25. Lionac
    • 7 Years

    Sterling -> Mane (c)

    Yes or no?

    First plan was to do James -> Jota but since Jota is uncertain will not risk.

  26. McPollolocco
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
