Best Leicester City players to sign on FPL in 2018/19 – Complete Members’ Analysis

The departure of Riyad Mahrez is the theme that runs throughout our latest detailed analysis for the new Fantasy Premier League season.

The Algerian leaves a big hole at Leicester City from both a goal-scoring and assist-providing perspective, meaning those left behind will have to up their game.

We’ve gone over last season’s underlying statistics to assess which players could fill the void and whether the Foxes are worth considering in 2018/19 without Mahrez.

Fantasy Football Scout members can view that data in the Members’ Area and also read our full analysis of it below to help them pick the best possible FPL team this season.

    Gary Madine essential?

    Albrighton essential this season

    1. Chandler Bing

      Why exactly?

  3. Bambi
    • 12 Years

    is this the year of the 4.0 defender? Van Bissaka in strongest palace lineup earlier. Peltier looks good to go. Bennet maybe too?

      They say this is a big, rich town.

      But I want PVA.

      1. Richd

        I might let people go budget. I’m going heavy in defence.

      2. TheDonald
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        He’s expensive. And a 4.0 defender will definitely help you fund him.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Yeah but then two palace defenders ..

    2. TheDonald

      Diop likes yellow and red cards I’ve heard.

      1. Team Bobcat
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Thats not good. Might gamble on him for week 2 anyway and analyse from there. Happy enough if thats the only issue

        1. TheDonald
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          24 yellows and 2 reds over three seasons is the actual number.

          http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/issa-diop/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/272622

          7 players in the PL got more than 8 yellow cards last year, by comparison (24 divided by 3 is 8).

                  I’d rather Quaner at 4.5

              • 10 Years

              I thought Southampton press send ings not on radar?

              1. goriuanx
                • 13 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                They also said VVD wasn't joining Liverpool

    2. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Tosun and King/Austin

      1. Coaly
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        King is interesting. If he could rediscover his form from two seasons ago he would be a gem

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Austin he lives to score goals . An FPL Dream

    4. Fantastisk
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Arnie, Mitrovic (eventually), Zaha, Tosun in that order.

      1. Zladan
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Arnie with bad fixtures and potentially negatively OOP.

        1. Fantastisk
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          He'll score the most over the season out of them, bookmark this.

          1. THFC4LIFE
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Agree

          2. Zladan
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            I don’t doubt that at all. However over the first 10 gameweeks I wouldn’t be so sure.

            1. THFC4LIFE
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              Fair point

    5. TheDonald
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Any reason Wood is a better pick than Barnes? Seemed like they were both pretty equal last season, at least towards the end when both fit.

      1. Fantastisk
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Was Barnes only playing due to Wood injury...I seem to recall something like that as Barnes only really started playing second half of season?

      2. Coaly
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Wood has much better PPG when playing

        Hopefully carrying end of season form forwards

    6. Kizza_10
      • 9 Years

      King

  7. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …

    Hazard handed transfer request in. Think I'll avoid Chelsea for now

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Source?

        1. Kryten
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Huge loss for Chelsea who would they replace him with?

          1. Silecro
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Surely bring someone, or if they dont, Pedro. Goals and assists-wise, he wouldnt do much worse

            1. Kryten
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              Chelsea fans would be fuming if they just replaced him. With pedro big step backwards

            2. JamTart
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              If Hazard goes it'll be interesting to see what the do with the Barca offer for Willian too. If he stays he'll do well out of Hazard's shadow if he goes they'll have a large budget for players and I wouldn't be surprised if Sarri tried to raid Napoli for Insigne.

              Pedro could be his "new" Callejon as well for directness and pace.

          Trustworthy? Do we have any other sources to go with it?

          1. Niemi
            • 9 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Don't think it's a trustworthy source, but wouldn't be surprised if it was true.

    2. Twelve years a slave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Was on the cards, obviously wants to go to Madrid and who can blame him, Chelsea going nowhere, has won all he can in England

      1. Kryten
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        He's been great for Chelsea so good when on top form. Although did go of the boil that one season

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      New manager with high octane possession & pressing game ... err, don’t think so says Hazard.

      Now, where did Mahrez go ... ? 🙂

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Sounds like Higuain coming in for starters. Higuain loves him by all accounts, and with Ronaldo coming in he is probably on the move

        1. Twelve years a slave
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          That should read Sarri loves Higuain

    4. Emiliano Sala
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Nonsense roumurs

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Hazard was saying a day or Two ago he wants to leave Chelsea, so probably not nonsense

        1. Rotation
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          He also tweeted he was in Belgium (11hrs ago), but the source said he met with Abramovich this morning.

          Not convinced yet

          1. Richd
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Well he can’t meet with Roman in London .. 😉

            Chelsea are going to be relegated imo.

            1. Rotation
              • 5 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              I guess when you have your own private jet anywhere anytime is possible..

              Can't see Roman being kind enough to go visit Hazard just so he can submit a request though!

              I can see Chelsea pushing top 4 tbh

  8. mcgrejam
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    First draft...

    Ederson
    Coleman, Daniels, Tomkins, Robertson
    Salah, Mane, Deulofeu
    Aubameyang, Tosun, Aguero

    Subs - no good subs

    Any good?

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Very good.

      1. Our Tiny Windows
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years

        I like Deulofeu a lot but I don’t remember him doing much last two seasons. What am I missing?

    How to fund PVA

    Fabianski/ Bettinelli
    Coleman. Mendy. PVA. Robertson. Cedric.
    Siggy. Mkhi. Salah. Cairney. Stephens
    Aguero. Aubu. Quarner

    1. Winter_is_coming
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Too heavy upfront along with Mo. I'd downgrade Auba or Kun and find a place for one 9,0-9,5 mid, it will give you flexibility.

      1. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I’d rather get rid of Salah than those two.

        I managed the last 5/6 weeks without Salah last season with green arrows.

        Kun and Auba seem great value.

        Salah seems Bang average value at best.

    2. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      5-3-2 with vomit for a bench.
      Pass.

      Why not just choose PVA over a different premium def and chuck in a 4.0?

    3. TheDonald
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Good luck!

      5-3-2?
      4-4-2?

      Or just rotating formation depending on whatever happens to form and fixtures?

      1. TheDonald
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        FYI, I've gone heavier up front, but weaker in defence and midfield.

        Midfield is the part of my team that I don't like so much. And I don't like yours either.

        But at this point in the season, can't be strong everywhere. And having 'balance' just means you're strong nowhere.

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Can I see yours ?

          I’m not a fan of any of the kids at the moment. Seems very little value outside of the premiums and potentially some decent 5 mills like Cairney !

          I know that last year was the year of midfielders but so much has changed in the game and real life this summer.

          1. TheDonald
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Ederson (Button)
            VVD, Robertson, Douglas, Tomkins (Peltier)
            Salah, Mahrez, Deulofeu (McDonald, Stephens)
            Agüero, Aubameyang, Wood

            --

            Hoping Emerson will become an option for Chelsea. Downgrade VVD.
            VVD in there because worried about Mendy's start due to winning the World Cup, even though he didn't play. Smalling could also fill that position.
            Hoping Loftus-Cheek becomes an option to swap in for Deulofeu, then I'd be happier with my midfield.
            Downgrading Tomkins to Wan-Bissaka gives me 0.5 to upgrade Deulofeu, but I don't like any 6.0 options either. I'd take Jota at 6.5 but can't find another 0.5 to shave off anywhere.
            Also really interested in Batshuayi if he becomes an option, especially if he's priced nicely.

            1. Richd
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              That’s the problem isn’t it the mid priced midfield options.

              If city go mental you’re in great shape !

      2. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah the plan would be to rotate between the two as I see Cedric and Cairney as very even.

        If I can find a way to downgrade Siggy then I’d happily upgrade Cedric too.

        I can see it working, and if it doesn’t I’ll snap wildcard

    4. Peace-o
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'd downgrade Salah to Mane or even Keita to free up even more funds. You already have Robertson, both him and an advanced Liverpool mid should be able to feed on / off of Salah points. Can use extra funds to upgrade.

      1. Peace-o
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Also Pep will rotate Kun with Jesus eventually. Will become annoying, better off finding value in a City mid like Sane

      2. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah Salah to Mane could be a move I’d consider.

        I’m willing to wildcard so gonna punt on Kun for now. This is a wildcard for the first month or so at most basically.

      3. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Where would you upgrade if you downgrade Salah to Mane ?

        1. Richd
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          I don’t see for example Quarner to Austin worth the loss of salah

        2. Peace-o
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Midfield would be my main concern

    5. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      How to fund a 5.5m player? Must have taken weeks of brainstorming

      1. Richd
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Following a previous convo. Keep up babe

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Lol keep up? Because what I should be doing is go to your profile and look up your previous conversations?

          And a previous conversation of how to fund a 5.5m player is just as stupid.

            It’s above. But yeah expect it from me. I’m stupid .. but will win all my MLs

      Looking strong mate.

      Got to be honest though, I’d bin Cedric for a 4M AWB or peltier who look as though they will play, I’d go for one 4.5 keeper (fab) then use the spare 1M budget to upgrade Cairney to Lookman (if he looks a starter) and then swap Siggy for Ramsey/Willian.

    What's wrong with all that Deulofeu hype? Injury prone player and never played consistently.
    Why not Richarlison, which don't get injured all the time and have super numbers all over the season (I know about his stats at the end...), just price question?

    1. Richd
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I had richarlison most the season due to a string of more pressing transfers. It was mainly the last 75% of the season he blanked.

      1. Winter_is_coming
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Okay, but what about Deulo and other 5,0-5,5 options?

    2. Kryten
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah not feeling deulofeu love either. To be fairs I just have bad memories of him. Would be interested to see if richaralison could convert stats to points but probably avoid both

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      It’s the same with a load of players on here, mentioned by a few and the next moment the herd mentality kicks in 😉

    4. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Deulofeu had that telepathic relationship with Lukaku a few years back. That combo was amazing, possibly the best assist-goal duo in the league that year?

      At 5.5m he’s a cheap option and could get the odd assist.

      Watford also have some favourable fixtures.

      I’m avoiding though as I’d rather roll the dice on Costa and a proper 4.5 fodder.

  11. FC Hakkebøf

    5 years, 9 months ago

    I see a lot people having Mahrez in their team... isnt he too big of a risk? I know Sterling might be rested for a couple of games, but after that there is sick competition from players like Sane, Bilva, Silva and even KDB can be deployed as a winger... (you saw the damage he did vs brazil)

    1. Fantastisk
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yes he is.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yes he is a risk, but there's nothing wrong with taking risks.

    3. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Starting with the unproven Salah was a risk last season too.

    4. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      It'll be absolutely insane if Mahrez doesn't start after paying all that money for him and also the fact that unlike the most city attackers, he didn't play the wc and is fit

      1. Silecro
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        if there's one team where money spent for a player is not a guarantee of starts, its Man City...

    5. Freddo
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      It's no more a risk than picking any of their other mids, can't avoid them all, just need to grow a pair and back one or don't and miss out on the top scoring players in the game.

    6. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané

    Any advice is welcome on how to improve this team

    1. Our Tiny Windows
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Alonso too expansive if Chelsea become a 433 team.

      1. Kristobal
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        It depends on how attacking the fullbacks are. Dani Alves was attacking in Barcelona while playing 4-3-3 for example. So are Marcelo in Real Madrid.

        1. Peace-o
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          The way Sarri likes his full-backs play, they don't into attacking positions much

          1. Freddo
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Does that make Azpi a little bit expensive over say Rudiger?

            1. Peace-o
              • 6 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              The way Azpi/Alonso played, they were basically OOP defenders playing high up the pitch. So for price point, was a steal. But I personally don't see them has value if they are going to be more withdrawn.

              1. Freddo
                • 6 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                I agree, been weighing this up today, they are only worth the .5 extra due to the attacking threat, if that gets held back, Rudiger + .5 seems the easier route into them.

                1. TheDonald
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 9 months ago

                  Is Rüdiger a much better pick than Christensen or Cahill at 0.5?

                  Last 10 Chelsea matches of the season starts:

                  Rüdiger: 7
                  Cahill: 7
                  Christensen: 6

                  and wasn't Christensen injured?

                  All 3 are rotation risks, and why not go with the cheaper one?

                  Emerson at 5.5.. could he be the one to go for?

                  1. TheDonald
                    • 5 Years
                    5 years, 9 months ago

                    Is Rüdiger a much better pick than Christensen or Cahill at 5.5?*

                    So an extra 0.5 saving with these guys. Extra 1.0 saving over Azpilicueta.

                    For me, Azpilicueta's extra value is in his sureness to start.

                  2. Freddo
                    • 6 Years
                    5 years, 9 months ago

                    That's all under Conte, doesnt carry much weight now.

                    I'm expecting Sarri to like Rudiger more, we'll get a look at his team in the Charity Shield and be able to go from there.

                    Emerson would be the dream but I'm not sure we will be that lucky.

                    1. Freddo
                      • 6 Years
                      5 years, 9 months ago

                      * more than Cahill & Christensen, not Azpi.

                      Finding it hard to justify the extra .5 if they hold themselves back.

                      1. TheDonald
                        • 5 Years
                        5 years, 9 months ago

                        Ok, I completely agree with you that the new manager may prefer different players like Rüdiger, and it's naive to assume the last 10 games under Conte will dictate the future under Sarri.

                        I just don't have knowledge of who Sarri will choose, so for now I'm staying away. But in 4 weeks time, hopefully we'll know more, because Chelsea offers terrific value in both defence and midfield.

                      2. Freddo
                        • 6 Years
                        5 years, 9 months ago

                        By all accoutns, he doesn't rotate much so it'll be a case of take your pick from the back 4 in the CS.

                        Shame Courtois seems unpickable for one reason or another.

                      3. TheDonald
                        • 5 Years
                        5 years, 9 months ago

                        Thanks. With a bit of certainty on the lineup ahead of week 1, I would definitely take Rudiger, or a nailed on 5.5, over Azpi. Especially this season, when prices seem especially high. So I agree with your point completely, basically.

      Both pretty awful.

    Patricio Speroni

    Mendy Robbo Ward Tomkins Peltier

    Salah Mahrez Willian Jota Cairney

    Auba Firmino Kamara

    Considering moves like Jota to Costa and Cairney to Stephens etc to upgrade either Kamara to Tosun or Bobby to Kun.

    Thoughts?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Why Mahrez?

      1. JamTart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        If I'm going for Auba above Kun at the minute so want another city asset. I've left him in just as a place holder and make a final decision after the community shield. If I want Sane then the plan is to downgrade Cairney if I keep Auba

  18. Whats the Mata?

    Pva bandwagon?

  19. Piggs Boson

    Just read the Sarri article. Good point made about Fabregas' old legs not being compatible with his pressing game despite his passing and creativity being ideal.

    Then again, I thought the same about Silva at City when Pep arrived and yet he's coped with the pressing well.

    Pre-season will be interesting. Very exciting manager.

      similar to mine below. like the kun + auba front line. Wish i could afford robertson. Why Cairney as a 4th mid and not Hughes who has 4 home games in first 5 and is proven?

      1. Flynny

        Is Hughes nailed???

          • 8 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Not sure, but the attacking midfield for the last 7 GWs of the season looked like this:

          BOU: Pereyra Hughes Kiko
          BUR: Pereyra Hughes Kiko
          hud: Pereyra Hughes Kiko

        Why did Hughes only start 11 games (4 sub appearances) last season?

        I could be tempted into him, but he seems risky.

        1. Bambi
          • 12 Years

          injured. played when fit

    things set in place until Mitrovic signs fulham and comes in at 6.0 (fingers crossed)

    Begovic - Boruc
    Coleman - Bailly - Cedric - Tomkins - Peltier
    Salah - Sanchez - Jota - Hughes - Stephens
    Aguero - Auba - 6.0

    1. BucketHead
      • 10 Years

      Can I ask why the mitro love?

      1. TheDonald
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        What's not to love?

        12 goals in 15 starts (+ 2 subs) matches since joining in February. Yeah, in the Championship though.

        If he comes in at 6.0, he's as good as anyone in that price range.

        What price was he at Newcastle last year?

        1. Bambi
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          6.0 i think

    does Pereira look like an enticing option going forward you think?

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 7 Years

      rotates well with Wolves + Palace defenders

    2. MANGE TOUT RODNEY

      No

      1. the snazzy viking

        is there a better Leicester defender for 5m or under?

  24. MANGE TOUT RODNEY
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Feel free to rip this one apart...

    Fabianski - Foster

    Alonso - Robertson - Kolasinac - Daniels - 4m

    Sane - Eriksen - Mhkitaryan - Walcott - Neves

    Aguero - Firmino - Zaha

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      -Fabianski+Foster - can't see many clean sheets from two goalkeepers that got relegated last season
      -Alonso - doubt he'll be as effective under Sarri
      -Kolasinac - not nailed
      -Daniels - Bournemouth aren't well known for their clean sheets
      -Eriksen - Spurs players returning late from WC and may take a while to catch on
      -Neves - CDM who only scores bangers, a Portuguese Matic
      -Zaha - could be deployed on the wing? may be wrong
      - no Salah??

      the rest looks good

      Yeah, looks as good as it can be with both Kane and Salah in there.

      I feel there is too much reliance on Salah and Kane in the team, I think you should downgrade one to improve one of your budget mids, eg. Kane ➡ Kun/Auba and upgrade from there

      As much as I want a plan for bringing Kane in I can't look past Auba as being essential after last seasons form. So I feel like you need to accomodate both and Salah as I see them being the 3 main captain choices depending who has the best fixture.

      Double points from one of them getting a brace each week is more valuable than only having 2 and getting the odd goal/assist from non captain picks each week.

      All comes down to getting the C decision right though.

    Anyone for Benteke? Last year was pretty bad but he has got a few solid seasons before in mid table teams. Still nailed on?

      Lol, this reminds me I started last season with Benteke when I could have afforded Firmino, in what was possibly my worst ever FPL misjudgement. 😀

    Not sure I get all the Auba Aguero double ups. Surely Auba is the best choice for season as Aguero a rotation risk but Aguero perhaps a good choice for first couple of weeks for Arsenal poor fixtures and until City WC players back. 22 m a lot to invest in 2 players.

      Arsenal will do City.

      Make one. Then you can spam it over and over without being accused of bragging.

    Current draft. Any suggestions?

    Pope - 4.0 (or Heaton if he's likely to start over Pope)
    Robertson - Coleman - Douglas - Cedric - Bissaka
    Salah - Eriksen - Jota - Deulofeu - Hughes
    Aguero - Aubameyang - 4.5

    Monitoring cheaper mids like Elyounoussi and Lookman too.
