The Official And He Takes That Chance FPL Fantasy Football League
FPL. What is it & How Does it Work?
The quick answer: Fantasy Football.
Now for the long answer…
FPL is Fantasy Premier League, the Official fantasy football game of, and by, the Premier League.
You have £100 million to select a 15-man squad consisting of 2 goalkeepers, 5 defenders, 5 midfielders and 3 forwards.
Each round of games, or ‘Gameweeks’, you select a team of 11 players, in any formation with a minimum of a goalkeeper, 3 defenders, 2 midfielders and 1 forward.
Each player scores points based on specific actions in the real life games.
For example, a forward scoring a goal gains 4 points, a defender keeping a clean sheet gains you 4 points. A yellow card will score you -1.
Your team’s points add up over the course of the season. The team with the most points at the end of the season wins.
Simple as that.
Sort of.
But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
We’ll be posting hints and tips between now and the big kick off on Friday August 13th, staring with a beginners guide to FPL.
