Mikkel Damsgaard

PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Mikkel Damsgaard is a midfielder for Brentford, age 26, £5.5m. The Premier ranks him 96th overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#73, 140.0 points) with the consensus of 2 other boards (88.5). Last year's Sleeper line ran 16 spots ahead of the expert/FPL mix. The third list keeps some of that production bump and refuses to throw the other boards out. That is the whole point of not just republishing The Pitch.

The 2025/26 Premier League line is 24 starts and 2046 minutes, 4 goals and 4 assists, 57 tackles and 45 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 113 points (3.4 per match) with 9 bonus. Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 140.0. 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: 2.61 xG, 5.43 xA, 8.04 xGI. Set pieces: corners order #3, direct free-kick order #3 for Brentford. Role at Brentford is the 2026/27 question sitting under the 2025/26 number. 24 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 ICT Index at 49; the coldest is FPL Ownership at 232.

Market: £5.5m, 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 2.0. ICT 155.0.

Instruction: deep-league starter, shallow-league watchlist. The 2025/26 line got him onto the 400. A role change gets him off it. Watch minutes, not vibes. Nearby on The Premier: Rúben Dias, Harvey Barnes, Jean-Philippe Mateta. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #73), the hybrid moves him down to #96. That move is the third list doing its job.

He is 26, which on this board is neither a dart nor a warning label. Prime-age midfielders get ranked on what they just did and whether Brentford still gives them the ball. 2046 minutes says yes. The 2026/27 FPL price (£5.5m) 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 #73 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.
