With 10 Gameweeks to go, Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has broken the record for the most FPL points in a single season.
Mohamed Salah increased his Premier League goal tally to 27 on Saturday, helping Arne Slot’s side extend their lead at the top to 16 points with a hard-fought 3-1 victory over bottom-placed Southampton.
The Egyptian forward’s performance this weekend earned him 15 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) points, including bonus points, benefiting 72% of FPL managers. This takes his season total to an impressive 306 points, surpassing his previous best of 303 from his debut Liverpool season in 2017/18.
Remarkably, Salah remains the only player in FPL history to surpass 300 points in a single campaign, with Luis Suárez coming closest with 295.
Could Salah Hit 400 Points?
If he maintains his current average of 10.6 points per match, Salah could finish the season with an astonishing 401 points by May 25. Liverpool’s remaining fixtures include Everton, Fulham, West Ham, Leicester City, Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Brighton, and Crystal Palace. Notably, he accumulated 98 points in the reverse fixtures against these teams, making the 400-point milestone a realistic target.
Fans React to Salah’s Record-Breaking FPL Form
Salah’s incredible run has sparked excitement among fans:
- “There’s still half of March, April, and May to go!”
- “FPL heritage. There will never be another like him.”
- “I haven’t touched my FPL since January, but my Salah captaincy has been saving me.”
- “303 points already in GW28—he might even break 400 this season.”
- “He is absolutely on fire. King of FPL for a reason.”
With Salah in red-hot form, all eyes will be on whether he can set a new FPL record by the end of the season.
It has been an unforgettable season for Mohamed Salah, who has contributed to 44 Premier League goals (27 goals, 17 assists), equaling the record for most goal involvements in a 38-game campaign.
Where Does Salah Rank Among Premier League Legends?
With his consistent brilliance, individual records, and team success, Salah has undoubtedly cemented his place among the all-time greats. But does he make the top five?
Many would argue that players like Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, and Sergio Agüero are among the league’s greatest ever. However, Salah’s goal-scoring feats, playmaking ability, and longevity at the top level put him firmly in the conversation.
