Nye regler for årets fantasy:
Assists: Now given for winning a free kick from which a goal is directly scored. A minor rule change. So make sure to pick up all of those ?divers.?
Bonus Points now decided by Player Performance Index: Bonus points have been a point of contention on this blog and to many fantasy managers for their seemingly mysterious origin, but perhaps that will change this year as bonus points will be handed out the morning after matches have been completed and will be based on the Player Performance Index ? sponsored by EA Sports? If it?s in the game, it?s in the game.
If bonus points are tied: Examples of how bonus point ties will be resolved are as follows -
If there is a tie for first place, Players 1 & 2 will receive 3 points each and Player 3 will receive 1 point.
If there is a tie for second place, Player 1 will receive 3 points and Players 2 and 3 will receive 2 points each.
If there is a tie for third place, Player 1 will receive 3 points, Player 2 will receive 2 points and Players 3 & 4 will receive 1 point each.
Everything else is business as usual. 2 wildcards again. 1 free transfer per week that can be saved. And 100M to spend on a 15-man roster. Really exciting times to be a Premier League fan and FPL manager in the coming weeks.
