Where does Salah's start rank among the best EVER in FPL?

It's taken Mohamed Salah (£12.9m) just 11 Gameweeks to surpass the 100-point mark in Fantasy Premier League, becoming the first player to achieve the feat this season. 

Liverpool's Egyptian has registered a remarkable seven double-figure hauls, combining eight goals with six assists and a league-leading 21 bonus points. 

It is only the fourth time that a player has reached 100 points in 11 Gameweeks or fewer. Salah himself holds the record after taking just NINE matches to reach his century in 2021/22.

Fewest Gameweeks to reach 100 points

Salah's blistering start to 2021/22 included six double-digit returns in nine appearances. He racked up 16 attacking returns during that run, two more than he has in the current campaign, despite playing two matches fewer.

The highlight was his 24 points away to Manchester United in Gameweek 9, in which he scored a hat-trick and supplied an assist.

Erling Haaland's (£15.2m) debut season saw him notch 102 points after 10 Gameweeks to place second on the all-time list. 

However, there were only nine matches in the first 10 Gameweeks of the 2022/23 season after all Gameweek 7 fixtures were postponed following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. So Haaland can lay claim to matching Salah's record.

Who has the most points after 11 Gameweeks?

Salah's current total of 107 points after 11 Gameweeks is the second-highest on record, behind only his explosive start in 2021/22.

Most points after 11 Gameweeks

Perhaps what's most surprising about that 2021/22 season is that Salah didn't go on to break the record for the most points in a campaign - a record he set himself in 2017/18 when he totalled 303 points.

In 2021/22, despite having 117 points after 11 Gameweeks, Salah only managed 148 points over the rest of the season, finishing on 265 points. 

That was largely due to his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). When he returned from the tournament, he started only 10 matches over the rest of the Premier League campaign and could only add 85 Fantasy points to his total.

Well-placed to break record this time!

When he set the record of 303 points in 2017/18, Salah had just 72 points after 11 Gameweeks, so he is currently 35 points better off at the same stage.

Indeed, with his average of 9.7 points per match this season, he is on course for a massive 370 points over the campaign.
