The Scout's panel of Fantasy Premier League experts offer their advice on who managers should hand their armband to in Blank Gameweek 32.

Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) will be the standout for most managers. His 14 points against Leeds United on the back of returns against Arsenal in Gameweek 30 and Man City in Double Gameweek 29 show he the best form player at Liverpool and they face a Nottingham Forest defence who have conceded 36 goals on the road this season.

If you don't have Salah in your team, Gabriel Jesus (£8.2m) and Gabriel Martinelli (£6.9m) both look great options.

Salah is the obvious pick but there are a few other options such as Martinelli, Arsenal's form attacker. 

I also like the look of Dominic Solanke (£5.5m). He has been shooting a lot more of late and his opponents West Ham United had a European match on Thursday, which could fatigue them.

Arsenal midfielders offer good captaincy alternatives to Salah but if I was looking away from the Egyptian, I'd stay within the Liverpool fixture, where I see the highest scoreline. They are therefore the players with the highest ceiling. If I was punting, I would look at Diogo Jota (£8.7m) for the armband.

I'm strongly considering Martinelli as he has been excellent this season. Arsenal will be looking to respond with an emphatic victory against bottom of the table Southampton.

I'll likely revert back to Salah. For managers who don't own the Liverpool man, the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.4m), Ollie Watkins (£7.7m) and the Arsenal pair of Martinelli and Jesus all look great options.

Salah looks the captain with the highest upside, facing the poorest travellers in the league. He's in a rich vein of form and you'd have to think hard before backing against him. If you don't have him, find a way to bring him in.
