Christian Fuchs has been an absolute revelation at left-back for Leicester City this season. Although, the PFA team of the year has chosen Danny Rose as the left-back, Fuchs deserves his place on this team because of his consistency, tenacity and dedication.

Stats wise also Fuchs is way ahead of Danny Rose in all the key defensive attributes such as interceptions, blocks, clearances and aerial duels won. The Austrian has been a willing runner for Claudio Ranieri and has been an ever-present in Leicester’s fairytale season.

Here are the stats which show why Fuchs is selected ahead of Danny Rose:
