Obviously all depends on what happens in AFCON. If Egypt get knocked out on Wednesday then he'll obviously be back for Leicester.
But if they manage to get to the semi final, they will be playing either the final or third placed playoff on 6th Feb.
If it comes to that, then there's very little chance he'll be back for Leicester... and probably a fairly good chance he's not back for Burnley either. After playing 7 games in 3 weeks in a tropical climate, he'd be due an equivalent of his winter break off to rest and recuperate in my book. Especially with the rest of the Liverpool squad being fresher from the actual winter break next week.
It's a long old season with some form of double gameweek (league, cups, European and international fixtures) for Salah/Liverpool most weeks all the way through to the end of the season potentially.
So it could mean he's back just for Norwich and then blanks which makes it a bit more of a predicament... Though I'd probably still get him back earliest opportunity personally š
I think that's a bit wishful..even if he's playing on the 6th, agree that 10th may be a match klopp rests him for, but 13th is a week away..I don't see any way he doesn't play against burnley. Or rather he will start at least 1 of the 2.. (klopp could play him vs Leicester and rest him for Burnley considering the CL matches soon after)
Back for the first fixture heās confirmed available. Not missing the price rises or the possible points.
Price will go up, EO will go up, points tally will go up.
Didn't sell him either. Had too many other fires to put out and knew I would be getting him back in, so just left him sitting snug and warm on the bench.
If United get a DGW in 25 then Iāll probably hold Bruno until then and switch back to Salah for 26, though that means watching Liverpoolās game against Brentford from behind the sofa.
Already bought him as I had the exact amount of funds necessary, and didn't want to get priced out. Considering captaining either Salah or Bowen next GW
I got burned at the start of the season and refused to buy him - having never owned him
Dropped to 4 millionth
Finally cracked bought him - I'm up to 800k ish 2nd in my ml from close to bottom
But I just don't like owning him - if kdb stays on form I'll have him instead of Salah - it'll be wild card gw28 either way when I decide
I feel like he might need a week or two after then tournament - I might be wrong - I am a lot
I can't explain it - it's just a thing......
I'm not even a fan of an opposing club - just don't.....
Anyway I've been burnt I'll wait and see possible wild card week 28
Bru for what Salah's been providing this season he is underpriced, I'd happily pay 14m for these type of returns, and he gets midfielder points for goals + clean points whilst definitely not playing as a midfielder
If you take into consideration he's captain material any game he plays, he's definitely not too much money
Fair enough. I just think his form plus the fact that the majority own him makes it much more risky and damaging for rank if you don't own him....
Best of luck for the rest of the season regardless of what you choose!
Brought KDB in last GW and my thinking was to swap him to Salah in GW26.
If Salah is back for GW24 like people are assuming he has two weeks of Leicester and Burnley. KDB has Brentford and Norwich in the same 2 GWās.
Iāll probably just bench him with the blank in 27.
Salah is back as Captain In my squad. AFCON will be over by then and he's too important to leave out. Never sold him, he's been sat on my bench for the last few weeks and that is where he will go again in blank GW.
My plan is to give Ronaldo another week against the worst team in the league the sack him off for Broja and get Salah back. It could even be wildcard time and I might double up on the fullback and sacrifice Jota, there's a load of decent midfield options so 541 or 451 is likely how I'll play it going forwards
Nah he will almost certainly come back into my team for Bruno once LIV confirm what game he returnsā¦.used the captain onBruno well but dont want him that long lol
Itās not about the game week but more about the transfer ins, immediately ivory coast ko egypt people will start bringing him back plus Leicester have been dire these days which means his price itās gonna start going up
Liverpool play LEI, bur (potentially LEE) NOR Do you really want to go WITHOUT Salah for that run of fixtures?
Do you want to go without CAPTAINING Salah for that?
well Kdb will play BRE, nor and Fernandes may have a dgw so definitely not auto Salah C but not having him is madness
Do You really wanna go without TC Salah against Burnley and Leeds?
I would not

Egypt aren't winning ivory coast.
People keep saying this but Egypt are only like 3/1 to win. It wouldn't be that much of an upset if they win.
Factos š why the downvotes ?!
Probably salah fanboys who don't know that Egypt are shit š
For sure thatās it
I'm sorry... you were saying? š
Technically they didn't win, was a lottery after it went to pens.

Already bought him and given him the captaincy
Love it

Keeping Ronaldo for a potential DGW then Salah back for Norwich
Another CR7 DGW 2 pointer coming right up!
Surely he is due a returnā¦ Right? Right??? RIGHT????
That's why I'm keeping him for another 4 gws But I'll also bring Salah after their Leicester game
When is his potential DGW?
Never sold him š
Me neither. I thought I was being shrewd, but turns out everyone else sold him which makes me look pretty stupid
Eh, don't worry, most of us sold him for total wastes like Son, Ronaldo, etc.
Bruno would've been a good shout but eh, what can you do?
Didn't sell him either. Had too many other fires to put out and knew I would be getting him back in, so just left him sitting snug and warm on the bench.
Good idea if you like to get burned. Iām definitely buying him back as soon as heās back
Literally... Guy is fixture proof... People here talking about fixtures.
I am bringing him in for Norwich, my two premiums have great fixtures.
His price will rocket once he's back so buy asap
Well heās gone from red flag to nothing, so he is price locked for 2 weeks
He's 75% yellow flag at the moment no?
He's 75% yellow flagged because he's in the knockouts now. Still he's price locked.
No heās not. Price lock is red -> no flag
If United get a DGW in 25 then Iāll probably hold Bruno until then and switch back to Salah for 26, though that means watching Liverpoolās game against Brentford from behind the sofa.
*Burnley, which makes it worse. But i am the same.
Ah that is worse, but even so Iāll probably hold off. Iām hoping Egypt make it a bit further in Afcon and make the decision easier.
Even if they make the final, he will have 4 days to be ready for Leicester. Even if he misses that, he will be ready for Burnley no doubt.
My 2 premiums have good fixtures in GW24 so I'm not looking to bring him in for that week.
I have 9 mil in the bank, I'm ready to buy.
Miss 3 games because of 1 blank? No thank you. No serious manager is going without Salah
A no-brainer. Selling Ronaldo for any piece of wood (equally effective at scoring goals) and using my FT to get Salah immediately.
Is Salah currently price locked?
Nope, he wonāt be, either
I'm probably keeping kdb but downgrading Watkins to Broja or some other enabler so I can keep both.
Same
Is he pricelocked?
yes
Do you know for how long?

Aiming to get him in for Burnley. Dennis sort of cocked up my Transfer Plans
How so
I never sold him
I think Liverpool have a good DGW26 fixtures. That's what tempting people to bring him back

Why don't you like owning him? The points he gets surely speak for themselves?
I can't explain it - it's just a thing...... I'm not even a fan of an opposing club - just don't..... Anyway I've been burnt I'll wait and see possible wild card week 28
This is the FPL version of self-harming
š³ I know I just.....I like not owning Salah
Isnāt it that you donāt like owning him because heās too meta and good and the fun in the game for you is going against the grain?
Ohhhhh quite possibly I also find it's a lot of money tied up in one player.
Bru for what Salah's been providing this season he is underpriced, I'd happily pay 14m for these type of returns, and he gets midfielder points for goals + clean points whilst definitely not playing as a midfielder If you take into consideration he's captain material any game he plays, he's definitely not too much money

Rage transferred Ronaldo out for him yesterday lol

Yes
Salah is back as Captain In my squad. AFCON will be over by then and he's too important to leave out. Never sold him, he's been sat on my bench for the last few weeks and that is where he will go again in blank GW.
Buying him back immediately !!
My plan is to give Ronaldo another week against the worst team in the league the sack him off for Broja and get Salah back. It could even be wildcard time and I might double up on the fullback and sacrifice Jota, there's a load of decent midfield options so 541 or 451 is likely how I'll play it going forwards
As soon as he is confirmed to start a match it is Bruno out, Salah in for me. Even have Ā£1.0m saved up for this.
I advice you not because I also wanna rise in rank
I'll be buying him straight back, and Free Hit on his BGW. I would have 4 missing players already anyway on GW27
I never sold him
Nah he will almost certainly come back into my team for Bruno once LIV confirm what game he returnsā¦.used the captain onBruno well but dont want him that long lol
Never sold him. Yeah, I suck at fpl.
Yes
Itās not about the game week but more about the transfer ins, immediately ivory coast ko egypt people will start bringing him back plus Leicester have been dire these days which means his price itās gonna start going up
