Top 10 defenders from the 2015-2016 season

6) Christian Fuchs (Leicester City)

Christian Fuchs
Fuchs has been ever present in the Leicester defence this campaign

The only other fullback on this list is this 30-year-old former Schalke player. He now finds a PL winners medal in his showcase—and he was one of the most crucial, as well as underrated, players for Leicester this campaign.

While most heaped praises on Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and N’Golo Kante, the Austrian international kept on doing his job in the shadows.

No player has created more chances in the Premier League this season than Christian Fuchs. In 31 league games, he managed to make 3.2 tackles in every game while complementing it with 3.1 interceptions and 3.9 clearances.

But that’s not all. He made 1.4 key passes and 1 cross in each game to stamp his influence in the attacking half of the pitch.
