FPL Reactions to Gameweek 26 (Saturday)

Gameweek 26 is underway. With eight matches already the FPL community has had a busy day of FPL action and points tracking. Here we round up the FPL reactions of the community to Gameweek 26 so far.


On Saturday morning Twitter was full with FPL managers making last minute transfer decisions ahed of the deadline. Saturday saw eight matches played, six of them unusually coming at 3pm. We take a look at how the FPL community reacted to the main talking points of the afternoon.

FPL Reactions

Salah’s ownership

Effective ownership (EO) was a key talking point in the FPL community on Saturday. The large number of Triple Captain armbands handed to Salah meant his EO was at well over 200% as shown on LiveFPL.

Andy shared the thoughts of FPL managers who hadn’t invested in Salah. His effective ownership at 266.5% meant that if you didn’t own him it was going to be a painful afternoon.

Ted gave FPL managers a list of the key FPL assets who were not in the starting XI for their Premier League clubs.
