Is Salah the must-have captain this week?

The FPL General drops his weekly dose of wisdom as we look ahead to gameweek 12 of the FPL season, including his thoughts on whether Mohammed Salah is the must-have captaincy option this week, plus his usual watchlist update, transfer advice and the following questions answered: Is it worth dropping De Bruyne for Salah this week? Who are your preferred sub 4.5 million defenders? Would I be stupid to sell Ramsdale now after having him since GW1? Is the goalscoring rate of Zouma and Vestergaard sustainable? Is Son a must own at his current price? Should we keep the faith in Jota or spend the cash on Trent instead? Is it safe to go Bruno, KDB, Salah and Son in midfield? Are Reece James and Chilwell the new Trent and Robertson? How would you rank the premium assets through to GW15? Who is a differential risk to target before a wilcard in GW16?
