Gameweek 15 rolls on with the tea-time kick-off at the King Power Stadium, as champions Leicester City host Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

Both of these sides are in decline as a source of Fantasy talent, with the Foxes failing to attract interest all season with both Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy unable to live up to the inflated prices following last season’s triumphs.

As for City, the capitulation of Sergio Aguero last weekend has certainly reduced our level of investment. However, Kelechi Iheanacho is again given the opportunity to deputise in the Argentine’s absence – he starts today having been drafted in by more than 210,000 Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of this morning’s deadline.

Elsewhere for City, there are further teamsheet surprises from Guardiola, who keeps both Raheem Sterling and Yaya Toure on the bench, with Ilkay Gundogan retaining a starting role.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Us Nacho owners will be better off if he comes on in the second half for a 30 main cameo vs Harry Hole and friends.

        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 days ago

        True. The 0.1 probably isn't worth it!

  9. Team Cruel

      • 14 Years

    Nacho looked like a gem at the start of the gw

    1. Bleach †

    2. Too Mane Men
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Played less than an hour today so sure to start at home against Watford who can't defend.

        ?

  14. Knowledgeable meerkat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    I'm confused with all the mentions of origi... I thought Klopp preferred firmino at false 9? Have I missed something? (I probably have but please enlighten me)

    1. Christina.
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      2 games
      2 goals

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Coutinho injury has possibly moved Firmino left.

      It could be Lallana left and Wijnaldum in midfield, but most expect Wijnaldum dropped, Firm left and Lallana in midfield.

    3. Clump
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      Cout out, Firmino likely to drop wide. Studge injured.
      Pool twitter feed promoting Origi this week. Should start, I think.

  15. Jigger & Pony
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Just checked Vardy is 9.6mn. No thank you...

    1. StalkingDwarf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Slimani and Mahrez leaving for AFCON too.

  16. diesel001

    Peo's ideal team:

    Bravo
    Zabaleta Fernando Fernandinho
    Navas Toure Gundogan Silva
    KDB Nolito Sterling

      1. Clump
        • 10 Years

    Evening all, anyone watch the Swansea match today ? I know Llorente scored 2 but how did he play in general, obviously will be watching MOTD to see for myself....It's him or Carroll coming in for Austin this GW.....

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Yep. Then bank the 0.1 and sell

  20. Mílanista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    I've never previously had a defender go from 0 points after 80 minutes to finishing the game with 11.

    1. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      You have now. Kolarov redefining the limits of FPL

    Chambers or Barragan more nailed on? Currently leaning towards Chambers.

    Was Nacho really that bad then? Wondered if he was dragged off early as the game was lost, but sounds as if he didn't impress?

  25. bojack
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    At least if Nacho does go up tonight, then most of us will make .1.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      I do love me a 0.1

  26. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Did Nacho play badly enough to be subbed? Surely likely to start next game as only played 58 minutes and only recognised striker. It is defence and supply to him that needs to be improved

    1. Lizard Lips
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      He was awful. Kept wandering offside. Be surprised if he starts next match.

    2. The Left Duke #3

      Clutching at straws chief, Nolito to start up top midweek for sure

  27. Viprin

    Another red arrow coming, 5th in a row,Mane (C) haul could only save me

      this was me last week and sanchez (C) saved my gameweek, anything is possible! its crazy this year!

  28. meenabakery

    Is Stones price likely to drop tonight or before the next GW?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 days ago

      0 chance.

    2. TorresMagic™

      Needs about 45K worth of sales.

    3. George Sillett
      • 10 Years

      Will drop like a Stone ( sorry that's bo**ocks)

    4. meenabakery
      • 9 Years

      Thanks gents. Unfortunately I'm too mathematically impaired to understand the system of price changes.

  29. Darklord_bg
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    When do players leave for AFCON?

    How many GWs do they have left?

  30. The Left Duke #3
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 days ago

    Diomande 1st sub, Amat 2nd sub....6 players to play, if one gets rested it ain't too bad. Sick I started Capoue over both though 🙁
