Your matchday team
Starting XI, captain and bench
Captaincy
Your captain scores double. If the captain does not play, the vice-captain takes over after the gameweek finishes.
Automatic subs
Non-playing starters are replaced in bench order when a valid formation remains. The reserve goalkeeper only replaces a goalkeeper.
04
Managing your squad
Transfers
Free transfers
Transfers are unlimited before the Gameweek 1 deadline. You start Gameweek 2 with one free transfer; after that, each completed gameweek adds one, up to a maximum of four.
Extra transfers
Each transfer beyond your available free transfers deducts four points from that gameweek.
Squad rules remain
A replacement must play the same position and keep the squad within its budget and three-player club limit.
05
Season boosts
Four chips, one use each
Wildcard
Make unlimited permanent transfers without point deductions.
Free Hit
Make unlimited transfers for one gameweek. Your previous squad returns afterward.
Bench Boost
All 15 squad players count toward your gameweek score.
Triple Captain
Your captain scores three times their base points instead of two.
Only one chip may be active in a gameweek, and each chip can be used once per season. Bench Boost and Triple Captain may be used in Gameweek 1; Wildcard and Free Hit become available from Gameweek 2.
