Latest FPL news
Groß
Set pieces, points and price structure make him one of the easiest ways to access Brighton.
Cherki
Best immediate fixture among the midfield options, but Foden/Doku competition lowers start security.
Savio
Best differential if you want several favourable fixtures rather than one home game.
OneFPL verdict
For most squads: Saka + Groß, then choose between Cherki upside and Savio security/fixtures based on your bench and risk tolerance.
