Gross - have we missed the boat?
If you've owned and gained points from Gross you're in a good spot. But if you don't own him, would you buy him?
3 reasons why not to:
Gross is massively overperforming his xg and he isn't going to keep hauling the way he is.
He's also 35 years old and Brighton are playing European football this season.
Hinshelwood is likely going to be back after the break and will occupy the no 10 spot which means Gross will go back to playing deeper in midfield.
3 reasons to still buy Gross:
He's still on set pieces and pens.
Brighton are the best team in the league in terms of attacking numbers and he'll definitely still get the return every now and then.
He's still extremely cheap.
Verdict: I would buy Hinshelwood instead if he's back or would rather buy Shade over Gross in that case.
If he's not, then i still think you can buy Gross. Just don't expect massive returns every gw.
