Picking your squad
You, the Fantasy Football Manager will pick your starting 11 players, from your 15 man squad, every gameweek. If you don’t make any changes, the same team and captain you picked for your previous gameweek will be used. The deadline for making changes is roughly 2 hours before the kick off of the first fixture that gameweek. You can see this in app. When the window for one gameweek closes, the window for the next gameweek is open.
Managers have 1 free transfer they can make every gameweek. Every transfer after that will cost you a 4 point penalty. For example, If you make 3 transfers, it will cost you an 8 points transfer penalisation – 1st transfer is free, and next 2 transfers cost 4 points each. This will be deducted from your total at the end of that gameweek. For example, if you scored 50 points at the end of the gameweek, your adjusted total will be 42 (50 – 8).
Your starting 11 must consist of:
- Exactly 1 goalkeeper
- At least 3 defenders
- At least 2 midfielders
- At least 1 attackers
You must nominate one of your starting 11 as your captain, and one as your vice captain.
Captain and Vice Captain
The player you nominate as captain will earn you double points for that gameweek. If your captain does not play then your vice captain will score double points. If your vice captain doesn’t play then no player will benefit from double points.
If a player ends with negative points, they will also be doubled. So if your captain ends on -2, they will end up with -4 points.
Leagues
Leagues tables will be calculated when the last fixture of a gameweek has finished.
