Accepted Answer

In Gameweek 2, 37,313 managers have moved into Erling Haaland while 22,710 have left Jonah Kusi-Asare. The net direction of travel is clear: the FPL market is pricing Erling Haaland as the better short-term asset. Transfer activity of this scale is typically driven by a combination of fixture awareness, expected returns, and ownership risk - all three of which feed into the analysis below.

Question 2

What is the ownership risk of keeping Kusi-Asare over Haaland in Gameweek 2?

Accepted Answer

Erling Haaland is currently held by 68.6% of FPL managers against 7.2% for Jonah Kusi-Asare. A 61.4 percentage point ownership gap means that if Erling Haaland returns a double-figure haul in Gameweek 2 and you are still holding Kusi-Asare, you hand ground directly to that 68.6% ownership block. At scale, that rank movement is significant. The decision is not just about points - it is about where you land relative to the field.

Question 3

What is the budget impact of selling Kusi-Asare for Haaland?

Accepted Answer

This transfer costs £11.0m extra, moving from Jonah Kusi-Asare at £4.5m to Erling Haaland at £15.5m. That upgrade cost needs to be funded from elsewhere in your squad or your bank. The question is whether £15.5m represents a price point that justifies the outlay relative to the expected return differential. At 4.0 projected points for Erling Haaland against 1.0 for Kusi-Asare, the model backs the premium this gameweek.
