2026 Fantasy Outlook
Gross returned to Brighton in January 2026 from Borussia Dortmund and slotted back into a familiar role, contributing a goal and three assists in 19 league appearances under manager Fabian Hurzeler. The veteran remains a smart, set-piece-taking midfielder, but at this stage of his career his minutes are managed and his fantasy output is limited. His value lies in the occasional assist and dead-ball involvement more than consistent returns. With Brighton's deep, rotating midfield, he is unlikely to be a locked-in starter across a full season. He is a cheap, low-priority option, more of a deep-league or set-piece punt than a reliable pick, useful mainly if he strings together starts.
Wasteful in a 1-1 draw
Gross registered five shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Leeds United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 38th minute.
ANALYSIS
Gross was heavily involved in the action for Brighton as they drew with Leeds but will leave the game feeling disappointed. He had five shots but failed to put a single one on target. One came late in the game and was a chance that he would have been hoping to score, but should have at least put on target. He also took seven crosses including three corners and failed to find a Brighton player. He left the game with a yellow card and one chance created.
