Callum Wilson is currently the highest point-scoring striker in Dream Team fantasy football. Don’t you just love the Premier League?
The Cherries striker has scored two goals in his side’s opening two games of the season and has also chipped in with one assist.
The 26-year-old put in a suburb performance in Bournemouth’s 2-1 victory over West Ham and has started this season just as he ended the last.

Kevin De Bruyne replacements as Premier League star picks up injury
Having netted in his side’s final game of last season against Burnley, Wilson has now scored three in his last three Premier League games.
After suffering a torrid time with injuries since joining Eddie Howe’s side in 2014, picking up two cruciate ligament injuries, Wilson is now one of the most inform players around.
The clinical striker signed a new contract with the Cherries at the start of the season and looks to be a man full of confidence.
The Bournemouth man has been a revelation in fantasy football so far this season, with 20 points to his name after Game Week 2.
Wilson has so far been selected by just 1.5% of managers, but we expect this number to rise significantly ahead of Game Week 3.
The Bournemouth No13 currently holds the position as the highest point-scoring striker on Dream Team and the fifth highest point-scorer in total.
Wilson will be buoyed by his impressive performances and will hope to continue his form in Bournemouth’s next game, when they host Everton.
Priced up at just £2.5m in Dream Team, the striker is one of the best bargains on the game and, if you transfer him in, will leave you with extra funds to reinvest elsewhere.
With a long history of injury troubles, picking Wilson is somewhat of a gamble.
It looks however like it could be a gamble well worth taking.
