Elliot Anderson
23-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Anderson made the move to Nottingham Forest from Newcastle last summer and immediately found a role, capturing a regular spot in the midfield. He started 33 of his 37 appearances for almost 2,800 minutes, numbers he was never going to see at Newcastle. Still, in terms of fantasy, he was stuck in more of a holding role for the majority of his minutes, limiting him to two goals from 40 shots and six assists on 37 chances created. A split role of set pieces helped his floor and will be something to target in the new season. Given that he found more of his footing in the latter half last campaign, it's reasonable to expect more goals and assists in 2025/26.
Plenty of crossing but no assist
Anderson generated 10 crosses (three accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Arsenal.
ANALYSIS
Anderson had volume but not necessarily efficiency, as only three of his crosses were accurate and he was unable to assist a teammate to give Forest a key victory. If he wants to get an assist Thursday in UEL action against SC Braga, he'll need to be more efficient with his crossing. Braga has only conceded five goals in six UEL matches during the group stage.
