27 - Florian Wirtz has so far been directly involved in 27 competitive goals in club football in 2023 (10 goals, 17 assists), which only @Guirassy_19 (28) tops among all Bundesliga players. Jewel.

VfB Stuttgart’s Serhou Guirassy is the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to score double digit goals this season. Doubt many people expected that.

He’s been seriously efficient, too. 10 goals from 21 shots; finishes with his left, right, and head; both inside and outside the box; off the dribble, dinks over the keeper, first-time strikes. This is a center forward playing with supreme confidence.

Dani Olmo’s assist this weekend is the football version of an alley-oop pass. Ridiculous that he played it first time too.

Victor Boniface, three (and a half) competitive games into his Bayer Leverkusen career: 19 total shots, 4 goals, and an assist. He might be a problem.

Update‼️ 23 total shots, 5 goals, and 2 assists through his first four games in German football. That’s not a bad start at all.

Brighton’s current quartet of wingers includes a homegrown signed as a 17-year-old in 2013, a €3m transfer from the J1 League, a 21-year-old Ivorian bought from the Danish first tier, and a loan player from FC Barcelona. Now that’s variety.

If early pre-season signs are anything to go by, João Pedro looks to be a hit in a Brighton kit. Loads of clever first touches to escape his marker, often with his back to goal, before using his long strides to attack space on the turn. An exciting start for the 21-year-old.

Brighton escaped Brentford’s high press by firing passes into Pedro from deep, and he won a lot of battles vs big center backs before combining with teammates. He looks a natural in that center forward role, but you can really see him fitting anywhere across their front four.

And speaking of their front four, we’re excited to see how De Zerbi uses the different options he has at his disposal this season: Pedro, Ferguson, Welbeck, Enciso, Mitoma, March, Buonanotte, and Adingra… just to name a few.

25-year-old Ismaïla Sarr joins Marseille after four seasons at Watford, split evenly between the Premier League and Championship. Another crack at top flight football, with possible Champions League involvement too — that’s a fun move.
