Season stats
Ownership
Percentage of FPL squads that have picked Saliba right now.
Elo Glicko-style skill rating. It updates match by match and carries across seasons rather than resetting, so it is not a count of points scored.
It is built on 0 games, so most of this rating is still the starting assumption every player begins from, with about 0 per cent of it measured. Expect it to move a long way once matches are played.
2026 World Cup load
Saliba played 516 minutes for France, past the 450 minute line, so this rating is held the least firmly of any cohort carried into the season.
Every rating carries a second number for how firmly it is held, called the rating deviation. A bigger deviation means the rating is less settled, so it moves further and faster once matches are played. It is not a mark against the player.
None of this is scored into the Elo rating. A World Cup is played against different opposition under different conditions, so counting it as Premier League evidence would make the number harder to defend. What a summer changes is how settled a rating is, not what it says.
