Brooks is currently at that early stage where it looks like he could be a huge player but there's also a chance he could stagnate, end up getting perpetually injured a la Jack Wilshire, develop off-field problems that ruin his game, etc.
He's only been impressing on the national stage now for a little over half a season. If he maintains these levels for another season or more that will massively increase his value as teams will know they're getting the real deal and will have to shell out accordingly.
Agree the toils of a EPL player are tough. Give him enough time to recover his injury and lets see if he can last a season without another injury.
