#4 Callum Wilson - the revelation of the season

At the start of the current campaign, not many would have believed that Bournemouth would be 7th on the table, ahead of Manchester United or that Callum Wilson would be in among the highest goalscorers, but after 15 matches, that is the reality we have on our hands.

The Cherries have captivated this season under Eddie Howe, and a lot of their results have been down to the brilliance of Callum Wilson.

The 26-year-old has contributed eight goals, while also adding five assists, and at this stage is one of the contenders for the PFA Player of the Year award. His bright form saw him rewarded with a debut for England, and he scored on his full debut.

He put Huddersfield to the sword at the Vitality Stadium, opening the scoring off an assist from Ryan Fraser, before returning the favour minutes later with a well-taken square ball for the midfielder to finish.

Wilson has been a hidden gem, and FPL fans have found real value in him. Bournemouth have been flying high thus far this season, and while the disparity in quality between then and the top six teams might be too great to make dreams of Europe anything but pipe dreams, with Wilson in this form, their fans can realistically hope to finish as the best of the rest.
