PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Thierno Barry is a forward for Everton, age 23, £5.5m. The Premier ranks him 109th overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#159, 85.6 points) with the consensus of 3 other boards (97.67). The industry still has him 61 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 Everton still builds around.

The 2025/26 Premier League line is 21 starts and 1898 minutes, 8 goals and 0 assists, 6 tackles and 34 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 95 points (2.5 per match) with 9 bonus. Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 85.6. Forwards get 9 a goal and 0 for a clean sheet, so this ranking is almost entirely the 8 finishes and 0 assists - not the defensive crumbs.

Underlying: 8.17 xG, 0.44 xA, 8.61 xGI. Set pieces: penalty order #2 for Everton. Role at Everton is the 2026/27 question sitting under the 2025/26 number. 21 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 RotoWire GW1 at 38; the coldest is FPL Ownership at 170.

Market: £5.5m, 9 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 1.8. ICT 102.5.

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: Harry Wilson, Georginio Rutter, Milos Kerkez. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #159), the hybrid moves him up to #109. That move is the third list doing its job.

He is 23, which on this board is neither a dart nor a warning label. Prime-age forwards get ranked on what they just did and whether Everton still gives them the ball. 1898 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.

Strikers live and die on the 9-point goal. 8 of them is why Barry is on this list at all. Assists (0) are extra. Clean sheets are nothing. That makes the ranking brittle in the nicest way: if the goals continue, he climbs; if Everton turns into a committee, he falls fast. xG at 8.17 is the early-warning system. Pay the shots, not last year's finishing weather.

How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #159 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.
