PitchKeep Take · The Premier
Marc Guéhi is a defender for Man City, age 26, £6.0m. The Premier ranks him 54th overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#19, 205.8 points) with the consensus of 5 other boards (56.0). Last year's Sleeper line ran 37 spots ahead of the expert/FPL mix. The third list keeps some of that production bump and refuses to throw the other boards out. That is the whole point of not just republishing The Pitch.
The 2025/26 Premier League line is 35 starts and 3150 minutes, 3 goals and 5 assists, 14 clean sheets, 35 goals against, 46 tackles and 232 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 179 points (5.1 per match) with 14 bonus. Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 205.8. Defenders get 10 a goal, 7 an assist, 6 a clean sheet, and −2 a goal against. CBI at 0.4 and tackles at 1 are how a centre-back cracks the overall 50.
Underlying: 4.05 xG, 2.37 xA, 6.42 xGI and 2.6 above expected assists. The defensive events are the floor: 46 tackles, 232 clearances/blocks/interceptions, 14 shutouts. Sleeper is built to notice that. ICT and xGI boards are not, which is why a centre-back's spread on this board is usually ugly and still informative. The friendliest board is The Independent Watchlist at 8; the coldest is RotoWire FPL 400 at 109.
Market: £6.0m, 12 boards on the file. That is leftover money for a Premier-ranked name. If the minutes hold, this board already voted. FPL's own EP-next is 2.8. ICT 160.9.
Instruction: he is a starter in deep Sleeper and a squad/rotation piece in 10-team FPL. Pay Premier #54 money, not a leftover 2024 reputation, not waiver dust. Nearby on The Premier: Rayan Vitor, Enzo Fernández, Jan Paul van Hecke. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #19), the hybrid moves him down to #54. That move is the third list doing its job.
He is 26, which on this board is neither a dart nor a warning label. Prime-age defenders get ranked on what they just did and whether Man City still gives them the ball. 3150 minutes says yes. The 2026/27 FPL price (£6.0m) is the app's guess at whether that continues. The Premier is the blend of that guess and the box score.
Full-backs and centre-backs separate on this board by attacking events. 3 goals and 5 assists are how a defender outruns his GA column. Without those, you are betting 14 clean sheets and the CBI stream (232) against 35 goals against at −2 a piece. Man City's 2026/27 defensive shape is therefore half of this player's rank. The other half already happened, across 35 starts.
How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #19 there). The Premier is the 50/50 with every other board we track. Attack, Midfield, Defence, and Keepers re-rank the same Sleeper table by position. BK Value on this page follows The Premier when you are on the hybrid calculator and The Pitch when you are on the Sleeper calculator. Same curve either way - 12,000 at 1.01. 6 yellows are a real Sleeper tax.
