PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Veljko Milosavljevic is a defender for Bournemouth, age 19, £5.0m. The Premier ranks him 323rd overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#326, 12.6 points) with the consensus of 5 other boards (251.8). The industry still has him 74 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 Bournemouth still builds around.

The 2025/26 Premier League line is 4 starts and 367 minutes, 0 goals and 0 assists, 1 clean sheets, 6 goals against, 5 tackles and 34 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 19 points (2.7 per match). Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 12.6. Defenders get 10 a goal, 7 an assist, 6 a clean sheet, and −2 a goal against. CBI at 0.4 and tackles at 1 are how a centre-back cracks the overall 50.

Underlying: 0.15 xG, 0.19 xA, 0.34 xGI. The defensive events are the floor: 5 tackles, 34 clearances/blocks/interceptions, 1 shutouts. Sleeper is built to notice that. ICT and xGI boards are not, which is why a centre-back's spread on this desk is usually ugly and still informative. The friendliest board is FPL Form at 65; the coldest is FPL ICT Index at 329.

Market: £5.0m, 0.0% owned into the 2026/27 FPL start, 6 boards on the file. Mid-range ownership means the name is known and not fully paid. That is usually where this desk lives — not the 70% tax, not the 0.2% dart. ICT 12.2.

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. FPL flag: injured; Unspecified injury - Unknown return date. Nearby on The Premier: Josh Acheampong, Victor Lindelöf, Carlos Alcaraz Durán. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #326), the hybrid moves him up to #323. That move is the third list doing its job.

Age 19 is the other half of a hybrid. The 2025/26 counting line is one season. The Athletic-style youth lean on this desk exists specifically so a Bournemouth kid does not get stuck behind a 32-year-old who had a nice bonus year. Sleeper still has to see the minutes. 4 starts is the beginning of a case, not the end of one.

Full-backs and centre-backs separate on this desk by attacking events. 0 goals and 0 assists are how a defender outruns his GA column. Without those, you are betting 1 clean sheets and the CBI stream (34) against 6 goals against at −2 a piece. Bournemouth's 2026/27 defensive shape is therefore half of this player's rank. The other half already happened, across 4 starts.

How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #326 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. Unranked sources are skipped, never treated as 999, which is why a player missing from Yahoo's XI is not secretly ranked 400th.
