Mo Salah replacements - THREAD

With Covid we always want Negative tests, but sadly #Salah came back positive, so he will miss out #GW9 & potentially #GW10 & #GW11 as well. We are littered with midfielders though, so I hope you enjoy my picks below and feedback is welcome 😃
- James Rodriquez - £7.9m – 28.9%
Coming back from injury in GW7, he played 74 mins and got 2 points which doesn’t sound great, but with the return of Richarlison this will hopefully bring back the points he was racking up at the start of the season (averaging 6.14 ppg) with DCL
-Bruno #Fernandes - £10.6m – 27.2%
This seems to be the go to transfer for a lot of managers, with 5⚽️+ 3🅰️(53 points). Coming up against #WBA who have kept 1 clean sheet + conceded 17⚽️(joint top conceded goals with Leeds), could be a good pick until #GW19 when they play #LIV
Hakim #Ziyech - £8.2m – 14.7%
Looks to have hit the ground running and has since been involved in playing the last 4 games where he has picked up 1⚽️and 3 🅰️+ looks to have a nice run of favorable fixtures until #GW17 when they play Man City
Sadio Mané - £12.0 – 10.7%
I was very tempted to do the switch from #Salah to #Mane, as it just makes sense. The Senogolian has 4⚽️+ 3🅰️ and can surely look to push for goals and chase that golden boot like 2 seasons ago, although watch for their players who are dropping like 🪰
Diogo #Jota - ÂŁ6.5
Now with the fly dropping this surely gives Jota the chance with #Salah being out, as we have seen he can deliver and now is his chance. 2⚽️in the last 3 and for the price this could be a bargain. Only downside is the lack of defenders who could affect points
Raheem Sterling - £11.5m – 5.4%
Now I know he hasn’t started the season well compared to last season, but this surprised me that he is only owned by less than 6%. I feel he can do better this season than last season and worth nothing in the last 3 seasons he has 55⚽️+ 38🅰️
John #McGinn - £5.5m – 2.3%
Massive differential + has 1⚽️+ 4🅰️. This is a bargain price to get into that Villa side (if you can’t get #Grealish) who have shown a great turnaround of form since clinching survival + at the mo they look fixture proof + are looking good until #GW31
