Here, they look back on an eventful campaign for Villans in FPL...
Aston Villa backed up a strong 2023/24 season with another outstanding campaign that made several of their players attractive Fantasy Premier League assets.
Highest-scoring FPL asset
Ollie Watkins (£9.2m) delivered for FPL managers again this season. The Englishman returned an impressive 186 points thanks to 16 goals and eight assists. His eight assists were more than any other forward in Fantasy.
Among players in his position, only Alexander Isak (£9.4m) and Erling Haaland (£14.9m) produced more than Watkins’ 24 attacking returns. Meanwhile, only Isak and Yoane Wissa (£6.9m) racked up more double-digit returns than his five.
Watkins grew stronger during the run-in. His three goals and two assists from GW32 led to a surge in popularity, with the England international appearing in 29% of teams by the season’s end, making him the third-most owned forward.
He finished the campaign as Fantasy’s third-highest scoring forward and the seventh highest-scoring player in the game overall.

Attacking returns
Morgan Rogers (£5.8m) has had an incredible season and is to thank for many of the 58 goals Aston Villa scored this season. Only three midfielders - Mohamed Salah (£13.6m), Jacob Murphy (£5.2m) and Bruno Fernandes (£8.4m) - produced more assists than the 11 of Rogers, while his 19 attacking returns placed him fifth among midfielders in the game.
Youri Tielemans (£5.5m) also enjoyed a strong campaign. He was his side’s most productive playmaker, with 61 chances created. Both the Belgian and Rogers ranked joint-sixth among midfielders for ‘big chances created’, with 16, while Tielemans, also a threat from corners and set-pieces, proved Villa’s third-highest points scorer overall with 121 points.

Best defensive returns
Defender Lucas Digne (£4.4m) was an impressive asset for Villa, given his crossing ability and propensity for carving out chances. No defender in Fantasy created more big chances than the Villa full-back.
Villa’s best all-round defender, though, was Ezri Konsa (£4.5m), whose popularity increased as Villa began to pick up clean sheets (six) in the final 10 weeks of the season. Konsa was Villa’s fourth-highest scoring player with 103 points, helped by making the most Clearances, Blocks and Interceptions (CBI), with 142, and a 15-point haul in GW37.
Goalkeeper Emi Martínez (£5.0m) produced another strong campaign. He made 298 recoveries, which only Everton’s Jordan Pickford (£5.2m), Arsenal’s David Raya (£5.6m) and Brentford’s Mark Flekken (£4.5m) bettered. Martinez returned 111 FPL points for the campaign.
