GoalPost read
Y. Wissa remains a valuable striker: he is in his prime, has shown his sharpest recent form at Brentford, and offers threat. The only drag is selection risk; he is not guaranteed to start.

Analysis overview
Wissa plays like a proper striker: sharp off the shoulder, quick to separate from markers, and always hunting the next scoring lane. He thrives on timing, darting into space, attacking loose balls, and finishing with a directness that keeps defenders turned toward their own goal.
