Anthony Elanga

PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Anthony Elanga is a midfielder for Newcastle, age 24, £6.0m. The Premier ranks him 202nd overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#296, 25.6 points) with the consensus of 3 other boards (218.0). The industry still has him 78 spots ahead of the 2025/26 Sleeper count. The Premier pays that reputation something, not everything. Brand does not outrun a down year, and a down year does not erase a player Newcastle still builds around.

The 2025/26 Premier League line is 14 starts and 1302 minutes, 0 goals and 1 assists, 14 tackles and 9 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 48 points (1.5 per match). Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 25.6. Midfielders get 9 a goal, 6 an assist, and 1 a clean sheet, plus a full tackle/CBI stream. That is why a six who plays every week can outrank a ten-goal winger who sits.

Underlying: 1.65 xG, 1.74 xA, 3.39 xGI. He finished -1.6 above expected goals. Set pieces: corners order #4 for Newcastle. Role at Newcastle is the 2026/27 question sitting under the 2025/26 number. 14 starts is a starter. Anything under 25 starts is a rotation warning we already priced. Minutes are the skill that survives a finishing regression. The friendliest board is FPL Price Board at 95; the coldest is Sleeper BPL 2025 at 296.

Market: £6.0m, 10 boards on the file. Price is the FPL tax, not the rank. The Premier is who produced and who the boards still believe. FPL's own EP-next is 2.1. ICT 57.8.

Instruction: he is on the 400, which is already a statement, and he is not a star. Stash in Sleeper if the minutes are real. Do not let a Pitch screenshot make you start him over a Premier top-80. Nearby on The Premier: Saša Lukić, Strand Larsen, Dan Burn. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #296), the hybrid moves him up to #202. That move is the third list doing its job.

He is 24, which on this board is neither a dart nor a warning label. Prime-age midfielders get ranked on what they just did and whether Newcastle still gives them the ball. 1302 minutes says yes. The 2026/27 FPL price (£6.0m) is the app's guess at whether that continues. The Premier is the blend of that guess and the box score.

How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #296 there). The Premier is the 50/50 with every other board we track. Attack, Midfield, Defence, and Keepers re-rank the same Sleeper table by position. BK Value on this page follows The Premier when you are on the hybrid calculator and The Pitch when you are on the Sleeper calculator. Same curve either way - 12,000 at 1.01.
