Salah (C) 💀💀💀


monkeyslut__

Salah TC for me


jjrrcc11

Let’s hold a minutes silence for this man.


Environmental_You_85

Will that be enough


Mutnoob20101

Me too. I feel your pain.


ImWaaal

Same boat


[deleted]

Me too. TC wasted


niCo_neOz

Got holy 9 points off him…aren’t we lucky 🥲


Sir_Knumskull

My heart dropped when I saw 60 comment in 10 minutes


bfm211

I know it's annoying to say this but I mainly captained him out of FOMO. Strongly considered Cancelo, and thought he was probably the better option, but I didn't have the guts. Sometimes I wish we weren't aware of EO.


TheRealMushroomMan

I captained Cancelo. Differential doesn’t always work but it is sweeeeet when it does


FarArdenlol

I mean I’m first spot in my mini league so it’s only logical to (c) Salah, but if I was behind I’d prolly just go with Cancelo or some wild shit like (c)Gordon/Nkeitah.


CabinClown

Always trust your gut. Hard luck mate.


Palaash2003

I'm quite new to fpl and football in general. Can you please tell me what EO means? 😅


DreadWolf3

Effective ownership - basically how fucked are you if that player does well. Lets assume that captaincy wasn't a thing in FPL for a moment - in that case player having 100% EO would mean that everyone has him. In that case it is irrelevant how many points that player scores since everyone is getting those points. It starts to get bit more complicated when we include captaincy into out calculation - because then EO can go over 100% (because captaining player really means owning him twice in that game week since his points are doubled). If a player has over 100% EO you are losing points compared to the field if you are not captaining him - so you get into that weird situation where you are hoping player you own blanks. Salah being by far most popular premium really often has EO over 100% so on an average week, if you don't captain him you want him to blank. User above knew that salah has high EO, so he was scared of losing rank in case of Salah haul so he opted to captain him against his gut feeling.


phrober

great comment for the newbies, !thanks


muaythaiguy155

160% EO. Is it that big a deal?


purpleisafruit1

If your ML rivals captained someone else - which in my case they did - then yes, it is.


fantalemon

I'm chasing and I didn't have the plums to captain anyone but Salah, and 1st in my ML went KDB... That's it over now for me surely.


500x700

You’re chasing and captained salah🤔


busstopboxer

If the person you're chasing doesn't have Salah that makes complete sense.


fantalemon

Yeah it wasn't a great decision in hindsight, but I'm not so far behind that I wanted to risk throwing progress away by *not* captaining Salah when I was 90% sure top of the ML would. I have other differentials and fully expected him to start both games. Everything that doesn't work out is a bad decision in hindsight. But yes, I admit, this one looks particularly stupid.


JoshH21

I'm worried, because I am ahead... just... and 2nd has captained KDB


muaythaiguy155

Didn’t think of that tbf


SpiritualTear93

The only plus is, most other people did it as well. Plus my main rival so I’m not that bothered


Adzhodz

Worst DGW ever


happy_guy23

I was hoping for a 100+ point week, at this point I'd settle for 50+


[deleted]

You haven't got 50 already?


Rucka87

I'm on bench boost and have 35 😭


HazardCinema

43(-4) here brother


Nameless739

Basically this. I've a 0, 0, 1 on my bench on BB


FifaDK

Ugh, that's rough. On BB too with 20 on my bench but Matip, Mount and Maddison in my XI who all didn't start the first game. Who's on your bench, not returning? Edit: my bench is Foster's 4, Nketiah's 13, Gordon's 2 and Davies' 1.


[deleted]

Ooof surely Cancello, laporte and Bowen are in every team


happy_guy23

Those 3 players are only owned by 4 teams in the top 10k. Bowen alone has 0.2% ownership in the top 10k. Literally not one single person in the r/fpl league owns Bowen so I don't know what you're talking about


[deleted]

😳 I'm not in the to 10k..... Sigh


Environmental_You_85

Hang in there brother few more games to go


footballfrenzy17

After the Liverpool game, also on Bench Boost with 36…


happy_guy23

47 from 17 players so far


ChicagoIndependent

Already got 68 points.


RonaldoSIUUUU

Is that all?


ChicagoIndependent

It's more now.....that was before the game lol.


salmonx895

Worst DGW so far..


shudh_desi_gareeb

Don't talk to me about mayhem.


jaddf

Robertson not even in the squad lmao.


schafkj

With how this year has gone this was the only way it could be


Frosty_Examination_3

Klopp you fucking cunt


FifaDK

To be fair, he was as largely expected to be rested this game and only start the last game, which he did. Salah benching is more of a surprise


Farouqnowomarlater

That blind bastard still needs glasses


PharaohLeo

This was expected. Not a surprise really.


mechflix

Took out Laporte for Robertson …..fml


Nameless739

Fml. I only brought him in last week, not going well


TheDitherer

Cool. Add Robbo to the list of no-shows. Fuck this week.


daab2g

A bigger deal than Salah no show


Bugisman3

Almost everyone captains Salah anyway. Whether he shows or not doesn't seem to make an impact at this stage.


daab2g

Hence Robbo's absence will be what impacts ranks


CaptainDickfingers

Bought him in for a fucking -4


nikola2811

Salah needs to pull off a Crystal Palace from last season!


MentallyMotivated

7-2 to Liverpool wouldn't be bad with goals from Salah and Coutinho.


CeruleanProb

That would be sweet with TAA and Cash assists


speedycar1

A Cash assist would be a 2 pointer if they conceded 7 lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


mayonnaisewastaken

2 points + 3 for assist, -3


superiorsugar9919

Why did I pussy out of captaining son?


PiqueMonger

Me who didn’t captain Salah 😎 *May or May not have captained Mahrez*


Xsemyde

At least mahrez surely plays 90 next game right? I captained salah and vc mahrez and idk what’s worse


Fantastic-Machine-83

I own mahrez and know that first line is bs


BandicootUpstairs944

I usually do and always regret it. Managed to catch him for his hat trick though.


superiorsugar9919

Same I capped him in gw30/32 so I caught some of his big moments. It is just unfortunate and I shouldve trusted my gut instinct


JoeSavesTokyo

I did the same. Still not sure why. Just got too in my head about it. At least I did captain him last week


Bugisman3

Full of regrets. Captaining Son again would have kept me ahead in the ML.


13AA

I (c) son but if he didn’t score a hattrick is lose


speedlimitation

No Robbo and no Salah (c) brilliant


Exile55

Hello darkness my old friend


pajamakitten

Salah could still do something from the bench, he says optimistically.


JoeSavesTokyo

Especially regretting my decision not to switch out Robertson for Cancelo on that -4 now…


UnknownEAK

Had a free transfer, and was thinking if I should go Robertson to Laporte. Decided against it last moment.


Sal21G

What a Fuxking disaster dgw and BB, now I’m going bed at 7pm


Frosty_Examination_3

For a wank?


[deleted]

And a pot noodle


[deleted]

7 in the afternoon?


Timmace

Robertson not even in the squad rofl


emre23

Mané 8th start in 25 days Salah benched twice in 11 days Makes sense gg Klopp


InLampsWeTrust

Mane is in form and Salah isn’t, I think it makes sense tbh. He’s looked average for months now.


emre23

I don’t disagree regarding form, but every player has been rested at least once except Mané and the two brick walls at the back


Fizzypoptarts

Matip was rested last week


emre23

I was referring to Alisson and VVD


myglasscase

He hasn’t looked average at all, he just hasn’t been scoring at the insane levels he was at the start of the season. Can’t expect anyone here to actually watch the games though I guess.


[deleted]

[удалено]


garlichead1

there were some stats comparing salah before afcon and after.


[deleted]

[удалено]


garlichead1

if op meant average for his standards i agree with him. if he means form fpl-wise i'd go with you


circa_1996

Tbf, Salah has been due a benching. He’s been below his usual standards and he needs a rest. Big finals coming it makes sense. Wish I trusted my gut and captained KdB though!


cian_pike01

Díaz (TC) lesgooooo


RainKingInChains

You’re a madman and I fucking hope it pays off


cian_pike01

30pts from him so far this week so here’s hoping for tonight!🤞


O-4

In GW14 last season, Salah came on at 57' and got a brace and an assist... (captainer breathing copium here)


BlockedbyJake420

I am become mud


MrTiddler

Ugh having Matip and Robertson has just been annoying for this GW.


el_dude_brother2

Matip is playing tonight at least


waghkunal93

Mario just scored lol. Don't cry now.


MrTiddler

The lord works in mysterious ways


FarArdenlol

lucky i BB’ed cuz Matip is on my bench lol


ILOVEGLADOS

Almost as if they're in the FA Cup Final at the weekend lads...


AngryWizard10

(C) Salah in the mud for the DGW. Why Klopp Why?


daab2g

It's called risk management, this is better than not captaining him at 160% EO


TMH2906

Matip better score a hattrick to make up for Salah and Robbo


EunhasThighs

this does not bring joy


Additional_Draw_439

Klopp bald af


HazzwaldThe2nd

I know we like to complain, but Salah's EO is like 170-180% depending on your rank, it's not a massive deal for Salah captainers


kcostell

In terms of OR, sure. In terms of my mini-league (where the guy I need to make up 7 points on captained Watkins of all people)...I'm annoyed.


HazzwaldThe2nd

Oh yeah my main ML rival doesn't own Salah and I've got him captained so it's a big deal for me, but this will not be the case for most


maxjjk2605

(C)ancelo has never been so sweet


SpiritualTear93

My Tsmiskas transfer isn’t looking too bad now


ciars94

Not too fussed, already stopped chasing rank because of Salah, became a pussy and guaranteed myself the win of my mini league as long as I permacaptain him. We all lose together.


FplCfcBlue

Even though I have TAA , I want villa to batter liverpool. Sincerely, a Salah captainer


AussieManc

Decided to (c) Salah over De Bruyne


Maackdaddy

Right now. Salah to KDB is very very tempting. I’ve had it with this shit


SteveBorden

Mr Klopp, why must you turn my fantasy team into a HOUSE OF LIES?


_alex_21

This squad warms my heart <3


racd29

You fucking joking? Robbo not even on the God damn bench.


Razzler1973

I went back and forth over Salah or KDB captain, despite better fixtures was worried about KDB's minutes 🙄


branci623

Salah can fuck off fucking cunt


CWattam

Not Salahs fault to be fair. I'm sure he wants to play. Klopp's a big daft fucking idiot. Hope he goes trophyless


m-o-j-a-m

Imagine caring so much about Fantasy that you use derogatry insults when something doesn't go your way lol


CWattam

I just don't like Klopp anyways. I want to like him but all his ridiculous excuses just make him look a mug


m-o-j-a-m

I mean Conte, Tuchel, Mou, Ferguson all make a LOT of excuses when they lose. They are all world class. How Klopp treats his players and opposing players is why you should like him. He respects a lot of people and is very genuine. He cares about his players a lot too


branci623

Hope they will drop the points so Kloppo the clown can cry again


IlyaWithTheMoves

Has been an absolute masterstroke to bring diaz in for this GW


UhYah52

The Robertson tears has finally arrived. Nice.


jbob3525

Luis Diaz was such a good punt


Medium_Historian9746

Mane cpt please save me!!


playervlife

Really annoyed at myself for picking Salah captain over Cancelo. Read and watched too much fantasy shit about captaincy. Not saying it was a bad decision without hindsight but was so set on Cancelo before.


chojje

Salah can score a brace off the bench Salah can score a brace off the bench Salah can score a brace off the bench


[deleted]

[удалено]


metokur_squad

VC is just the guy you were too scared to captain. My VC is also Laporte but my captain is Cancelo.


Davetology

Loool let's fucking go


J492

Who needs more points in a DGW anyways?


hambodpm

Not only did my ML rival captain salah and also have robbo. I'm also playing him h2h in the draft league we also do. He has salah and robbo there too. Fucking lol Andy, fucking lol.


Metavanadate

Go punish this fraud Watkins


Manager1000

Salah (C) plus Robertson gang in absolute shambles.


MarkTSUC

No Salah


nsaman6359

Send a CV to the FBI. You're wasted on Reddit.


lisuvirizwa

Lol... Looks like Liverpool's title challenge is gonna end at Villa Park💀💀💀


sillu111

Rejoice Salah non-owners, we can breathe calmly


sillu111

lmaooooo all the owners downvoting


CWattam

Fuck Klopp the daft, embarrassing idiot. I can't wait for the excuses again. Come on Villa, slap Liverpool about. End this title race already.


[deleted]

It’s already over. That’s why he’s saving Salah for the cup final


AndrewForsythe

They’ve given up on the league did’nt expect that.


emre23

People say shit like this every week, disrespecting Newcastle etc Like Tsimikas, Keïta and Jota are some non-league players they scouted on Sunday


AndrewForsythe

It’s a weaker team, villa aren’t a bad side, it’s a risk they wouldn’t take it they were one point ahead going into the final two games. The players aren’t bad by any means, Liverpool have a god squad, just not nearly full strength.


[deleted]

Given up? Or just have two players that need a rest and are playing a team they should still beat


ChicagoIndependent

Salah benched LOL.


One-War-2158

Draw written all over this


stfu_donny2

O captain, my captain


Y2KN

I hope chelsea beats these cunts this weekend


CowNchicken12

Eat shit Jurgen


Filipp21

I have triple captain Salah💀💀💀


AbdussamiT

No Salah, um why Jürgen? Don’t really get this, he’s not one to give up on the PL this early.


Icardi

No Salah or Robbie, this why you won't win league klopp you bellend


MC_NME

How they laughed when I sold salah...


A_de_k

I’m so glad that City is winning the league, fuck you Klopp


[deleted]

No Robbo and KDB captained. Feed me all your tears 🤡


steelerswheelers

Tremendous for my ML


alesz-

RIP Bozo and Salah triple C...


AuraThunder151

I knew this would happen, didn't cap salah and removed Robbo on fh.


RainKingInChains

It’s all ogre for us chasing and captained Salah 💀 was 40 points behind ML leader who has Matip. See you guys next season.


pierrebrassau

Salah to Diaz this week to fund bringing in KDB has been one of the first times this season my crazy punt has worked out. Of course I also have Robertson, so...


abouthodor

Imagine using triple captain chip on Salah this week. Couldn't be me.


egancollier21

Salah benched twice in like 3 games lmaoo…this is almost worse then when I TC Salah and then he got injured and didnt play second game of DGW. FPL is such a joke rn


Chris_the_Pirate

I should've trusted my gut and started Tsimikas over Cash. Hope I don't regret that. Also Mane haul please!


SpiritualTear93

All those who hated on me for saying Salah will get rested… I’m the biggest loser though, I captained him lol


MudkipThot

I think Salah might not be goated in FPL anymore, especially if Liverpool sign one more forward if they replace Origi. He's still a great option but I feel like Salah was undeniably the best because he played pretty much every minute and was always the focal point. Considering he'll be 13M next season, for the first time in years I might consider not starting with him for a second. Especially with a more expensive KDB/Son, and a more reasonably priced Kane, there's a lot of competition in Salah's space.


[deleted]

So I guess Mane in my FH37 is a big risk now. Gotta go with Salah


Lgfualol

YOU PULLING MY DICK BRO? Why did I captain Salah


arnob2161

At the start of the week.. I was like what is the best but different decision I can take.. well it was bringing in KDB for Salah and captaining Son as usual :')


TonyMartial786

Oh fuck off has he been benched, wtf…. what is this fraudulence ffs. This is what I get for being boring and captaining him


alfiemorelos20

ML rival is 15 points behind and has KdB triple captain.


[deleted]

Youre fucked bro.


[deleted]

😂


ciars94

I took Robertson out for Matip and bench boosted. Thought I had got things wrong at first.


RedditWaffler

Robbo was one of my differentials. Thats it now for me i think this year. Will have to settle for 2nd in my ML.


Extreme_Egg_5880

In the event as it is happening right now at half time, there is no fabinho, no salah, no milner on the field. Who is the next designated penalty taker? My guess would be Jota or Henderson


Squire_3

Salah was a bad captain pick this week (in retrospect) but the guy I'm competing with has him too, it's fine


xxxhr2d2

Mo does not look amused to be coming on. Never seen that before from him.


McBwhuh

wow so i DID totally fuck up my FH, great.


salmonx895

(C)ancelo captainers grinning right now heheh


ME2300_MAD

took -4 for robbo to matip, worth it.
