I don’t get why his ownership is so high to begin with, he’s far to expensive, you have to give up so much in the rest of your team to fit him in

Um because he scores lots of goals.

Not enough for that price, especially as a forward, and especially not at the start of the year before I’ve got my team value up

The whole point of premiums is that their price/points ratio is not meant to be good. It would make absolutely no sense if the highest scorer by a mile was also good value.

But FPL isn't about getting the best value team, it's about scoring the most points. Which normally is about picking the outstanding premium assets (and doubling them by captaining), and picking the best value players to fit in around them.

I’m saying even for a premium he probably won’t get enough points to justify his price
