Swap Salah for Haaland? The FPL talking point

Mohamed Salah or Erling Haaland? As is so often the case, choosing between the two superstars is the big talking point among FPL managers this week.

Liverpool's Salah has two goals and one assist from his opening four league matches, whereas Manchester City's Haaland already has five goals with no assists.

The underlying numbers side with Haaland, too, so if he's not already in your team, should you sell Salah to bring him in the Norwegian?

FPL expert Gianni Buttice and the guys from The FPL Podcast by BBC Sport debate this week's FPL talking point.

Gianni Buttice: Salah may have clocked two goals and one assist in four league games, but his underlying numbers have been disappointing to say the least. So far in the league this season, he has only attempted five shots, had one big chance and when you exclude last week's penalty, has an expected goals total (xG) of 0.31.

In comparison, Haaland has five goals and his underlying numbers are equally as impressive. He has had 19 attempts, nine of which were big chances. and a non-penalty xG of 5.74 – more than 18 times higher than Salah's.

In gameweeks one to four last season, Salah had almost double the number of FPL points, but he has 25 to Haaland's 37 this time round.
