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.

      How's the team looking Phil? You've usually got an epic XI?

        dont even remember how its looking tbf Nets.... haven't opened team for a while in IB plus dealing with some problems In phone and University studies taking time .....
        from what I remeber its got all the usual suspects you expect like Sanchez Eriksen siggy king costa Valencia Walker n ol ..defoe vs Watford too 😉 he might be my captain who knows

          Got the main boys then, and a good week for a punt.

    Hi everyone!

    I'm using the last WC of the season.

    Jakupovic Pickford
    Alonso Valencia Vertonghen Yoshida Fabio
    Alli Firmino Sigurdsson Sánchez de Roon
    Costa Lukaku Deeney

    £1.1 itb because I will change Costa to Ibrahimovic next GW.

    All comments will be appreciated!!!

      Looks like a typical GW30 WC team on here.
      Maybe Valdes in goal?

      1. golden skulltula 69

        Thanks!

    2. Jay_
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Mate, it's a long way off but when 37 comes round you'll want some City and maybe Arsenal defence. Jaku to Cabellero looks good. Might as well get Holgate over Fabio. You're not really gonna need him in 34 if you play Alonso, Valencia and Vert. Fabio will just be .4 wasted and Holgate has WAT in 37 so even if you don't BB the full XV, at least Holgate has a decent fixture. Would also get JWP for DeRoon.

        1. golden skulltula 69

          Thank you very much!

    3. TorresMagic™

      If I got Walker, anything worth a hit?

      Heaton Jaku
      Walker Mawson Valencia / Holebas FM
      Sanchez Coutinho Mane Siggy / Fletcher
      Lukaku Aguero Llorente

      0.0 in bank

      1. dark91
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Is Coutinho to Alli or Eriksen doable ?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Only if I got Vert or similar.

          1. dark91
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Are you planning to do Aguero to Ibra then anytime soon ?
            In that case you can easily afford Coutinho to Alli

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Not interested in Ibra yet. Rather upgrade Fletcher and bench Llorente vs Spurs.

            Is Walker replacing Baines?

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Coleman

              1. Diva
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                Sorry, I'm tired. That's who I meant to say.

      2. marquinhos
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Didn't prefer to go Bertrand rather than Walker TM?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Spurs defence is high on the agenda now. Soon you'll want to hide Bertrand.

      3. jia you
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Wow TM, no Alli or Eriksen. I'm surprised! Surely a priority over Walker, no?
        ...although I see now you have FM in addition to Coleman!

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah, could do some surgery for a Spurs mid. Likely to do some for GW31 as Swansea equals goals.

      4. Netley Lucas
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        No, but consider Vertonghen.

      5. liiusions
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Potential rotation of the Spurs fullbacks in midweek games not put you off? Looks good no hit needed

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Can't really control that. Vert is an option for sure.
          Will see if pressers give a clue. Walker trolled me a fair bit earlier in the season.

          1. liiusions
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            May not rotate them as much now as they're so important to the team and they only have the FA and PL.

            Was all set on Vert/Toby but found out my rival who's chasing has put Walker in so it's an easy decision for me 😛

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Vert is too boring for Mark so might get him. Toby is obviously due but makes future transfers harder.

        7 years, 2 months ago

        Interesting double Liverpool and Aguero gives you a good differential team this week I think. No Spurs or Alonso.

        Looks good to go.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Really want to WC but have to play the cards I'm dealt.

      7. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        nothing worth a hit if you get Walker in

      8. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers all, might take a hit if I go cheaper than Walker.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Coleman > Vertonghen
          Coutinho > Alli

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            That's the likely plan if -4 is on the cards. Could upgrade Fletcher to someone big once Aguero goes also.

      9. golden skulltula 69
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        In my opinion you need Spurs mid until Kane is fit

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          31 at the latest.

    4. jia you
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Good Morning DZ! Just to get your thoughts on my starting XI (assuming Gabbi is fit). I really fancy Mawson this week but no room at the inn.

      Pickord
      Alonso / Walker / Valencia
      Hazard(C) / Sanchez / Alli / Siggy
      Lukauku(VC) / Gabbi / Deeney
      (Jaku, Mawson, King, Yoshi)

      Mawson or King first sub?
      Cheers

      1. liiusions
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Looks good if pressers are nice to you. King easily

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Thanks

      2. Geoff
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Love your team. Strong. King before Mawson

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Appreciate it, have a feeling that Mawson might bag another goal but I guess you are right. There may well be a few goals in the BOU game, whereas the SWA game could be a tight affair.

    5. marko_v_111
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 2 months ago

      Help please. Not to sure what transfer to do with this squad

      Heaton, foster
      Baines, mason, holebas (pieters, MCauley)
      Mane, siggy, Alli, king (Barkley)
      Lukaku, aguero, costa
      0.6 itb

      Thinking

      A) aguero, mcauley->vardy, Alonso/Valencia for -4 (but then will not have funds for Sanchez next week)

      B) aguero, Barkley, mcauley->deeney, Sanchez, Alonso/Valencia for -8 (could leave Sanchez transfer for next gw or not do Def hit)

      C) do nothing and carry over for next week

      The guy I'm trying to catch is now just 8 points ahead of me and does not currently have anyone i mentioned above

      Any advice would be great

      M

      1. dark91
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Save and use the 2 fts next GW

      2. liiusions
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Can you afford Sanchez if you do A with Baines->Valencia?

        1. marko_v_111
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Sadly not, a mill short

      3. Diva
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        I would prioritise sorting out that defence.

        1. marko_v_111
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Is it that bad obviously play 3 at the back with baines, mcauley playing most weeks, holebas is a dead weight but normally like to use transfer on mid/str and not take hits for defenders

        2. marko_v_111
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Sorry mason should spell Mawson the Swansea guy scoring all those goals,

          1. Diva
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Ah, I thought you were referring to Holgate.

            1. marko_v_111
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              One letter makes a massive difference,

              Currently leaning towards deeney, sanchez, alonso
              Gw31: costa-> ibra
              Gw32: mane-> Erikson
              Gw33: holebas->Valencia

      4. Jay_
          7 years, 2 months ago

          Save as the .6 won't buy you a United def. Get one next week, with either Aguero or Barkley downgrade

      5. davies
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Play one of each:

        A) Pickford or Heaton
        B) Brunt or Friend or Maguire
        C) King or JWP

        1. Jay_
            7 years, 2 months ago

            Pick, Mag, King

            1. Lav
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              This

        2. Jay_
            7 years, 2 months ago

            On a wildcard and I think I've cracked it. Left me with this problem though; Which 2 to play? Has to be at least 1 defender, can be 2 defenders.

            Negredo (swa)
            JWP (BOU)
            Bertrand (BOU)
            Vertonghen (bur)

            Currently on both Saints but not comfortable with it.

            1. Geoff
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Yikes. Bertrand for sure. Then I'd go striker probably but that's tough

            2. liiusions
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Bertrand and Negredo I guess. I don't love the JWP/Negredo punts even if they do have DGWs coming up

            3. KingNidge
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Vertonghen and JWP

            4. fedolefan
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Play Bert and Vert. Problem with getting JWP and Negredo is that you will never want to play them unless forced to.

            5. Diva
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 2 months ago

              Vert and JWP.

            6. Jay_
                7 years, 2 months ago

                Cheers lads. Not ideal but have to have a strong squad for the doubles.

              • Haggis
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                1)JWP
                2)Bertie
                3)Vertie

              7 years, 2 months ago

              Hey all. Anything worth a hit?

              Pickford (Heaton)
              Valencia Baines Holebas (Pieters McAuley)
              Sanchez Eriksen Mane Siggy (Phillips)
              Costa Lukaku Carroll

              0.7m

              McAuley > Bertrand / Vert?

              Cheers in advance

                • 8 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                Maybe Holebas->Vert. If he were sure to start I wouldn't do it but him getting dropped last game is annoying for you

                      7 years, 2 months ago

                      I mean Vert is 5.5 and Holebas around 4.6

              2. jia you
                • 7 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                I'd save and get rid of both Phillips + McA/Hol next week for a strong DEF?

                  7 years, 2 months ago

                  I'm 0.1 from Phillips + McAuley > Carroll + Alonso

                    Ouch, how about Walker instead?

                      I could yeah.

                      I wish I'd taken the Phillips > Carroll hit in the blank week. I knew I should have it's broken team structure

                McAuley can come in handy, Baines looks the weak link atm.

                  7 years, 2 months ago

                  four weak links back there 🙁

                  I'll wait until Friday and think about a move. I don't like any of Baines' next three

                  1. Netley Lucas
                    • 8 Years

                    No, you have a good squad that has served you well. There won't be any on here who is higher than you right now. Go for it bud.

              Hi All,

              Do I play king or llorente? Are any changes necessary for a -8 hit?

              Already on -4 hit(Coleman ->Valencia, Coutinho ->Ali) and 1.4m ITB.

              Grant (Foster)
              Azpil valancia Holgate (Reid Chambers)
              Mané Eriksen Ali siggy king?
              Lukaku costa llorente?

                King and stay put

                No hit if you have to bench one of them.
                Form says King to play.

                Thanks everyone. I also think King wins to play on form.

              Walker + Valencia (or)
              Alonso + Vertonghen
              (or) any combo up to 12.5
              No other heavy hitters atm.

                Both good options tbh, which do you prefer?

                  • 9 Years
                  7 years, 2 months ago

                  I'm leaning towards B.

                    • 8 Years
                    7 years, 2 months ago

                    Why?

                      7 years, 2 months ago

                      Because I trust Alonso's attacking threat more. Walker has so many attackers in front of him and Spurs don't always play 3 at the back. It's tricky that having Walker will allow me to have Valencia too, but United may not keep a lot of CS and he is due a rest. Still unsure though..

              Hi All,

              Play Grant or Foster? And is Chambers back for this week? If so Holgate or Chambers?

                Grant and presser.

                  Thanks. I think Chambers is a better option if he is fit to play. Hopefully we will know more after the presser.

                  Over the next 4 gws, would you say liverpool mids or spurs mids are more worth it (especially now lallana can't take points away from three chosen ones)

                          apologies. It was a question for the masses.

                          just can't justify bringin in spurs mid...

                Aldo. Meet him in a pub in Swords one night when Houlier was Pool manager. We were bemoaning the defensive rubbish he was making them play. I told him he should send his CV to Anfield but I must admit I was very, very drunk 😉

                    Not him. Taking the mick a bit really — I had some some coaching years ago from a man whose resume included a couple years at Bluebirds, as a junior player I believe. He was there during Dale's last year however, and might have met him, so maybe a two-degree connection...

                      Sounds interesting, Dale is one of the Bluebird's most successful players in my opinion

                I cornered Neil Mellor in a club and regaled him with tales about his last minute winner against Arsenal, the knockdown for Gerrard's Olympiakos screamer and the season he scored 30 goals for the reserves 🙂 He was very polite considering I was a fair few vodkas deep and clearly boring him to tears.

                Jamie Redknapp in Bournemouth gardens. This was when he was at Liverpool. I remember asking 'How's your dad?'. I think Harry had been sick or something.

                    Strange he was on the bench vs Bolivia, but I suppose we view it as nicely rested, city will pile further misery on arse and I reckon Sergio gets a couple of goals

                      Late captain also, very tempting.

                  Yeah, I guess King is in too good a form to leave in the bench.

              Looking ahead, how does the community see the Chelsea Man City game shaping up in 31?

              Chelsea setting up to not concede and play on the counter? City are just so inconsistent it's hard to predict, I know.

                Their last match was an absolute classic and a treat for students of the tactical game.
                Another classic on the cards I reckon. Result could be very different. That last game could have easily been 3-3

                      Spurs vs City was pretty one-sided. Spurs vs Chelsea's 2nd half boring. Both were good matches but Man City vs Pool and Chelsea were soooo entertaining!

              Surely there has to be more talk about Mane as a captain this week... Merseyside Derby, gotta be a haul for Pool. Plus Coleman out. I haven't even thought twice about anyone else.

                    Considered using ft to bring him in and cap him. Decided Eriksen is a bit better through to wc.
                    So many great mid options atm. Got Alexis, mane, siggy, alli and eriksen. Still another handful I'd love to have.

              Hello guys. I am on wildcard right now. My provisional team is

              Valdes, Pickford
              Alonso, Valencia, Vertonghen, Yoshida, Holgate
              Sanchez, Alli, Eriksen, Pedro, JWP
              Lukaku, Vardy, Deeney

              MITB - 1.7 ( kept aside to get Ibra back in 34 or else I will have to sell Alonso).

              Do I need to make any changes to it? Tadic over Pedro? Costa over Vardy?

              1. hemil_3000
                • 9 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                Also, should I go Willy over Valdes to save a FT I will likely make after 34?

              2. Haggis
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 2 months ago

                I have a quite similar setup, with Cedric instead of Yoshida, Fabio instead of Holgate and Siggy instead of Pedro.

                I don't think you'd need Tadic as you have JWP, plus that blocks further moves for Gabbi. Pedro is great value, but unsure of his minutes. Vardy has form and fixtures and explosiveness which makes him a better captaincy option than Costa IMO

                1. hemil_3000
                  • 9 Years
                  7 years, 2 months ago

                  Thank you. Might just keep Siggy over Pedro then. Cedric and Fabio on bench means using 1.2 extra. And I dont even know when will I ever play them over the big 3. Also, it means to get Ibra for 34, I will have to sell Alonso.Is it worth it?

                  1. Haggis
                    • 8 Years
                    7 years, 2 months ago

                    I think your strategy to keep cash in the bank to afford Ibra in one transfer is a sound strategy. Go with Holgate/Yoshida - it's a bit riskier in terms of starts, but you'd have to compromise somewhere anyhow.

                    1. hemil_3000
                      • 9 Years
                      7 years, 2 months ago

                      My other option is to sell Alonso to afford Ibra in 34. Holgate and Yoshi can be a risk but the problem with getting Fabio is he is not nailed too. Plus Holgate has a really good 37 too when I will bench boost. Also, getting Fabio means I do have to sell him after 34 using a FT or a hit. You think Fabio is nailed?

                    2. hemil_3000
                      • 9 Years
                      7 years, 2 months ago

                      And what about going Willy over Valdes to save that FT or hit later on?

                      1. Haggis
                        • 8 Years
                        7 years, 2 months ago

                        All depends on your strategy for smaller DGW's really. With double UTD and a pair of cheap MID defenders I don't think you're overcommiting, but could still reap some rewards from their double gameweeks. With plenty of free trades available before GW37, I think you'll have no trouble getting Caballero and a

                          7 years, 2 months ago

                          my free transfers will likely be used to get ibra, gabbi/defoe , kane, sane/sterling, arse defender, another defender till 37. So I have 7 FTs. Will be a tight one then to get Willy on a free.

                  I really know I will end up picking the wrong Pool option. Hence better to avoid them. Also Lallana out hurts them a lot.

                Nice!
                Siggy over Pedro looks good.
                For defense, yes, you'll be hardly benching one of the 3.
                Ibra move looks quite right.
