Assessing Shakespeare’s Leicester City

Leicester City’s decision to part company with Claudio Ranieri back in late February came in for some harsh criticism at the time yet the impact under Craig Shakespeare has forced a sharp reassessment of the Foxes’ potential.

Four straight wins in all competitions, scoring three times in their trio of Premier League matches since the Italian left the King Power Stadium, bodes well ahead of back-to-back home encounters with Stoke and Sunderland and a trip to Crystal Palace in the next four rounds of fixtures.

With that in mind, we take a look at the Foxes’ displays since Ranieri was relieved of his duties as Fantasy Premier League managers consider a short-term move for their in-form assets.

    Best move for this side? Lanzini out?

    Alonso-Fernandez-Robertson
    Mane-Siggy-King-Lanzini
    Gabbiadini-Lukaku- Aguero

    Pickford-Capoue-Amat-Pieters

      Gabi is fit?

  4. anish10
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Mane captain anyone? Seems to score big at home and in big games...

    1. BobBradleysOpportunity
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      i think everton will sit back which makes me a little wary of Mane who feeds off space behind the defence

    2. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      He's my current captain. I'm tempted to change it Kaku aur Kun.

  5. big_cliff
    • 8 Years

    Am I right in thinking that we will know the dates for the remaining postponed fixtures by the GW32 deadline?

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, 7th April was the date everything is due to be confirmed by.

  6. WE GO FOR IT
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Pick one:
    1. Valencia, Alli/Eriksen, Lanzini/Redmond
    2. Fuchs(for 2 weeks, then Valencia), Alli/Eriksen, Tadic

      Nothing for a hit.

    Ok so I need some advice on my next move after I did Coleman to Valencia last night:

    A) Baines to Cedric -4 (allows Cout, Kun to Sanchez, Ibra -4 next week)
    B) Baines to Yoshida -4 (allows Siggy or Cout for the above transfers next week)
    C) Don't take a hit

    Jaku, Grant,
    Alonso, Valencia, Baines, Evans, Amat,
    Mane, Alli, Coutinho, Siggy, Fletcher,
    Kun, Kaku, Llorente.

    Cheers guys

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A looks like a good move, especially as they have BOU. Sets you up nicely too.

      1. istanbul05
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks! Only nagging concern is selling Coutinho ahead of BOU at home...

    3. Moves like Dejagah
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I like A. Sets you up nicely.

    4. aleksios
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A is good

    5. willgriggsonfire
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A looks good. Good short term fixtures and DGW to come.

    6. Crystal
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Just play Baines, Bournemouth usually score

      1. istanbul05
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Normally I would, but thinking ahead I want Sanchez/Ibra next week and can only afford with a hit this week...

    7. istanbul05
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks all. Guess it basically comes down to Cedric and Siggy vs Yoshida and Coutinho...

  17. Moves like Dejagah
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Am I gtg or should I use a free transfer? I've got 0.4m in the bank:

    Courtois (Pickford)

    Alonso, McAuley, A Smith (Brunt, Pieters)

    Mane, Coutinho, Siggy, Sanchez (Larsson)

    Lukaku, Llorente, Deeney (c)

    1. aleksios

      7 years, 1 month ago

      Gtg good team

    2. willgriggsonfire
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Good team.
      You planning to rid one of the two L'pool mids next GW?

      1. Moves like Dejagah
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I am but annoyingly I can't afford Alli or Eriksen. Would you consider wildcarding before the midweek games?

      2. willgriggsonfire
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        You could look at one of the City mids for the same.
        WC I'd you are planning for a bug overhaul... Otherwise no.

      C is solid plan

    2. willgriggsonfire
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      C looks good but wait at least for the press conferences.

  20. Moves like Dejagah
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you captain from the following;

    A: Deeney (SUN)
    B: Mane (EVE)
    C: Siggy (MID)
    D: Lukaku (Liv)

    1. Theholygoalie
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Lukaku or Mane for me, yet to decide myself.

      1. Moves like Dejagah
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Currently on Deeney but it seems risky. Mane could be the shout.

        1. Make Arrows Green Again
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Mane is more risky. It's a haul or nothing for him recently.

    2. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Deeney

    Guys struggling to decide, play Pickford or Jak this week?

    Jak at home but i think West Ham are a fair bit better than Watford and also save points to consider

    1. Moves like Dejagah
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Tough one but just Pickford I think. Sunderland seem to concede so many chances - I don't fancy either for a clean sheet.

      1. Theholygoalie
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah with two cheap keepers it's sometimes just a how many saves will they make kind of call! Cheers for the response though.

    Benching Baines ?

    1. Moves like Dejagah
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I like this and I really rate Tadic but he just hasn't got the points this season. If you're chasing in ML then Cedric and Tadic sounds ideal.
