<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re coming towards the end of the 2023/24 FPL season, and there are big decisions to be made.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s here where the best will truly be separated from the rest &#8211; and the best know when to make the big calls.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Those big calls mostly fall around the top players, who know when to follow the crowd and when to be different. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At this stage, we’ve looked at the top five most-owned players in FPL and assessed whether you should keep or sell them.</span></p>

<h3><b>Erling Haaland</b></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">
<h4><b>Position: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">FWD</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Price: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">£14.2m</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Fixture: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nottingham Forest (a)</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>FPL teams selected by: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">66%</span></h4>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Erling Haaland is still the most-owned player in FPL right now, but he isn’t in as many teams as he once was. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Norwegian has been hit by injury and poor form, missing two of Manchester City’s past six matches (including their upcoming game against Brighton) and blanking in another two. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Although those blanks did come against Arsenal and Liverpool, what’s worrying is that he amassed an xGI of just 0.41 across the two matches. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">City do have some favourable fixtures coming up, but Haaland is becoming a bit too unreliable at his price. In-form players like Jean-Philippe Mateta may be better options for your squads.</span></p>
<p><strong>Verdict: Sell</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_63982" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-63982" class="size-full wp-image-63982" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-51.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-51.jpg 798w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-51-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-51-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-51-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px" /><p id="caption-attachment-63982" class="wp-caption-text">Erling Haaland&#8217;s <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="1" title="FPL Stats by OPTA - Player and Team Stats">stats</a></p></div>
<h3></h3>
<h3><b>Bukayo Saka</b></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">
<h4><b>Position: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">MID</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Price: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">£9.0m</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Fixture: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spurs (a)</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>FPL teams selected by: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">59%</span></h4>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bukayo Saka is another interesting case, highly-owned but not in the best of form.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Over Arsenal’s double gameweek in which they scored seven goals, Saka was only directly involved in one. In fact, he only has two goal involvements in his past six appearances, after a run of six matches in a row with a goal or assist. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tiredness is really kicking in for Saka, who has proven so reliable for the Gunners this season. In his past six appearances, Saka has recorded a non-penalty xG of 1.18 and an open-play xA of 1.13. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This, combined with Arsenal facing both Tottenham and Manchester United before the season is up, might lead us to another differential option like Morgan Gibbs-White (after his match against City).</span></p>
<p><strong>Verdict: Sell</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_63983" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-63983" class="size-full wp-image-63983" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-54.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-54.jpg 798w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-54-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-54-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-54-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px" /><p id="caption-attachment-63983" class="wp-caption-text">Bukayo Saka&#8217;s <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="1" title="FPL Stats by OPTA - Player and Team Stats">stats</a></p></div>
<h3></h3>
<h3><b>Cole Palmer</b></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">
<h4><b>Position: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">MID</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Price: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">£6.2m</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Fixtures: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aston Villa (H), Spurs (H)</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>FPL teams selected by: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">48%</span></h4>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cole Palmer missed Chelsea’s thrashing to Arsenal in midweek through illness, but that won’t keep him out for long. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Chelsea have three home games left in the league this season – and six matches altogether including two double-gameweeks. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since breaking into Chelsea’s starting XI, Palmer has only blanked in two of his 11 league games at Stamford Bridge. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In his past four home games, Palmer has scored 10 goals and provided two assists, amassing 74 points. That’s an average of 18.5 per match! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Three of Chelsea’s final six games have also been given an FDR of 2 which may help you, especially as Palmer often shows up even when his teammates don’t.</span></p>
<p><strong>Verdict: Captain</strong></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-63980" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29.jpg" alt="" width="1136" height="1418" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29.jpg 1136w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29-240x300.jpg 240w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29-820x1024.jpg 820w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29-768x959.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29-610x761.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-25-at-15.49.29-1080x1348.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 1136px) 100vw, 1136px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>William Saliba</b></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">
<h4><b>Position: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">DEF</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Price: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">£5.9m</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Fixture: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spurs (a)</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>FPL teams selected by: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">40%</span></h4>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The sole defender in the top five, Saliba isn’t even the best Arsenal defender right now, with Ben White overtaking him after scoring twice against Chelsea. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But there’s only one point in it and, week-by-week, Saliba feels like the better option.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As part of a solid Arsenal defence, Saliba has had returns in eight of his last 11 Premier League games, with bonus points in two of those. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">During that time, Arsenal have also only conceded an xG of more than 1.0 twice – compared to less than 0.50 six times. Any of the three Arsenal defenders will do, to be honest.</span></p>
<p><strong>Verdict: Keep</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_63981" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-63981" class="size-full wp-image-63981" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-52.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-52.jpg 798w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-52-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-52-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/FFStuffImage-52-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px" /><p id="caption-attachment-63981" class="wp-caption-text">William Saliba&#8217;s <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="1" title="FPL Stats by OPTA - Player and Team Stats">stats</a></p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Mohamed Salah</b></h3>
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">
<h4><b>Position: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">DEF</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Price: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">£13.6m</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>Fixture: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">West Ham (a)</span></h4>
</li>
<li>
<h4><b>FPL teams selected by: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">40%</span></h4>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mohamed Salah was a lot of managers’ captain choice in Gameweek 34, with many also triple-captaining him.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> But he returned just three points, and we shouldn’t have been surprised. Since returning from injury, Salah has blanked in five of his past seven appearances for Liverpool, only scoring against Brighton and Manchester United.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Against Fulham he was rested, coming off the bench for just 16 minutes. A few days later, he was part of the Liverpool attack frustrated by Everton, failing to score from an xG of 0.67. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">His form is just 3.5 and Liverpool have a tough final run in, facing West Ham, Tottenham and Aston Villa before ending at home to Wolves.</span></p>
<p><strong>Verdict: Sell</strong></p>
