John McGinn
31-Year-Old
Aston Villa
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
McGinn was ever-present for Villa in 2024/25, combining energy, leadership and clutch performances in big games. He chipped in one goal and four assists in the Premier League while often covering ground box-to-box. His pressing intensity and ability to carry the ball through midfield remained vital in Villa's most competitive stretches. Heading into 2025/26, McGinn is still a central figure but may face more rotation with added depth. His ability to play in multiple positions should remain a key to playing time, but as seen last season when he scored three goals in Champions League compared to one in domestic play, upside is mostly inconsistent.
Buries two in win
McGinn scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest.
ANALYSIS
McGinn delivered his first multi-goal game of the season and is now up to three goals in 20 league appearances on the year. This marked just the fourth time in league play that he recorded at least two shots in a match, while it was also the fifth time that he racked up more than 30 completed passes.
