The shift in the utility of fantasy assets has meant that forward assets have become less of a priority. However, there are a plethora of assets to consider this season to bolster our attacks.

Harry Kane (£11.5m) has thrived at Tottenham Hotspur since the arrival of Antonio Conte in the middle of last campaign. He has registered 23 attacking returns so far this calendar year, more than any other player. 

We associate Kane with goals, but his assists have become almost as prolific in recent seasons. He’s managed at least ten in his last two Premier League seasons and tops the charts for both big chances and big chances created since Conte took charge.

Erling Haaland (£11.5m) could become a big rival to Kane in the premium forward category: he joins the Premier League with a dazzling record from the Bundesliga, where he scored 62 goals in 67 games.

He’s set to start the season as the most owned player in the game and will be a key contender when it comes to captaincy. Manchester City face Bournemouth in Gameweek 2 and Nottingham Forest in Gameweek 5, both at home.

Jamie Vardy (£9.5m) falls under £10m this season and could provide another fast start: he’s managed a minimum of seven goals in his first ten appearances of the last three seasons. He scored five goals in his final four games of 2021/22 and will benefit from having a full pre-season under his belt.

Ivan Toney (£7.0m) was the best of the budget forwards last season, scoring 12 goals and grabbing five assists. He is the talisman of this Brentford team, with his excellent…
