One of the biggest myths about Leicester City's season is that they aim to "outscore" the opposition, but remove the five goal defeat to Arsenal and Leicester's goals conceded per game ratio would be 1.14 - the 12th highest in the league, and almost tied with Man City's 1.07. And this record is only getting better: Leicester have conceded just four goals in their last six league games.
The pattern is clear: Schlupp has featured at left-back in five of the six matches this season in which Leicester have conceded two or more goals, and in the five matches since the 2-2 draw with Southampton on Fuchs' debut, they have conceded twice.
Fuchs, signed by Ranieri from Schalke, has helped Leicester to conceding just 0.4 goals per game since his debut; with Schlupp in this role, they conceded 2.0 per match.
The Austrian international arrived on a free transfer in June, having spent four seasons at German Bundesliga side Schalke 04. He has established himself as a key member of Claudio Ranieri's defence, filling in on the left hand side on nine occasions in the top flight so far this season.
