Minutes and bonus
Where the points come from
100% of his points earned came from appearance. That is a narrow base — if it stops, most of the return stops with it. 3 earned, 2 net
Are the returns real?
Too few minutes this season to say whether his returns are backed by the chances — 46 played, and a gap needs about 900 before it means anything.
Across 3 full seasons on record he has finished above expectation every time.
Goals and assists minus xGI, per season. Positive means he finished above the chances he had.
Defensive Contribution
He averages 2 against a line of 12, so DefCon is not a realistic source of points for him.

Early trend
Not the model — that needs a longer form window and opens once he has 8 gameweeks behind him. This is simply what he has actually scored so far.
Too early for the full model — opens at Gameweek 8.
