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.

    So is THIS the game where Fuchs actually gets points?

    1. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Haha could be

    2. Golden Venture
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      funny old game

    3. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Hope not. Got rid for Bertrand

  5. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    If city carry on playing like this, it makes the decision to not get aguero back much easier!

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Very tempted to go with Costa and Kane until the next wildcard, but it's hard to say until Aguero is back

    2. jungle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I sold all City - and don't feel nervous about it. In the past I would be terrified of not owning one or two...

    3. Shultan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      When you have the likes of Zaha & siggy doing so well, it's hard to justify a 13 mill striker whose manager is constantly rotating

  6. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

    1. Sif
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Haha!

  7. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Maybe its worth keeping Fuchs now?

  8. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Koscielny+Hojbejrg to Cedric+Can(-4)?

    1. StalkingDwarf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I say wait for news on Mustafi and Monreal.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Will that make any difference? Arsenal have been poor.

        1. StalkingDwarf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          I thinking about moving my Arsenal defender as well. If you were to transfer, I think the Hojberg to Can is unnecessary

          1. EmreCan Hustle
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            I have Anichebe as my third fwd in a 3-4-3 🙂

    Champions league parked, Leicester back to been a premierleague side that wins matches again

  10. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Pele had City much better organised and playing to their strengths.

  11. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Slimani owners unite

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years

    This season is absolutely nuts!

  13. The Fantastic Mr Fox
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    More #FPL managers brought in Claudio Bravo (1,316) than Islam Slimani (933) ahead of Gameweek 15

    Well i still have a chance of getting a decent OR

  14. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Pep should take off zabalets & bring on yata toure

  15. denial
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    If Fuchs keeps a cleanie after finally selling him it's going to give me the serious a*se-hole.

  16. Mark-O
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Let's face it Leicester will score a third goal isn't it?

  17. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Yaya and Nolito should be on the pitch

  18. Sess!
    • 15 Years

  19. fedolefan
    • 11 Years

  20. Sess!
    • 15 Years

    Pep might have to sacrifice a striker and bring on another defender or midfielder to stop this being a rout

  26. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    In fairness Pep is used to planning ahead on what to do during the winter break at this time of the season in Spain or Germany

  27. Davidinho
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Why's everyone getting excited about Fuchs? Still 70 minutes to lose clean sheet and and he hasn't got any attacking points yet

  28. FPL Puppy
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    VARDY AGAIN!

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
