John McGinn

McGinn remains a dependable, energetic presence in the Aston Villa midfield, contributing five goals and four assists across 30 appearances in 2025/26 under manager Unai Emery. The Scotland captain is not a big fantasy points scorer, but he chips in from midfield and offers the running and set-piece involvement that keep him in the side. His minutes are generally secure when fit, though Villa's midfield depth means the occasional rotation. Nine goal involvements is a respectable if unspectacular return for a central midfielder. He is a cheap, low-risk option who plays most weeks, better suited to deeper formats than as a first-choice midfield pick, with modest but steady output.
