After yet another haul, should we just be giving it Salah till the end of the season? Lads unstoppable.
Who are you going with? #FPL
Always Mo
Many managers who have a strong overall rank have come up with a strategy of their own: give Mo Salah the armband every week!Always Cheating discuss whether those in the chasing pack can deploy the same technique.Locked in captain for the next 3 gameweeks

FPL Viper has dug deeper into his captaincy selections for the season. More faith in Salah would have meant a drastic increase in points.⚠️Reverse fixture Analysis ⚠️

I just did some #FPL digging on my season and as expected, captaining Kane over Salah has been a huge deal breaker for me:
— FPL Viper (@FPLViper) February 7, 2018
Kane (Captained 11 times – 130 points at an average of 11.8 PPW)
Salah (Captained 3 times – 62 points at an average of 20.7 PPW)
Damning Evidence.
