Q: What is the chip system? A: Chips are special boosts you can use during the season, such as Triple Captain, Bench Boost, and Free Hit. Each chip can only be used once per season, so timing is crucial.
Q: How does the scoring system work? A: Players earn points based on their real-life performance. Goals, assists, clean sheets, and other actions earn positive points, while cards and own goals result in negative points. Check our detailed scoring guide for a complete breakdown.
Q: What happens if my player gets injured? A: If a player is injured, you can transfer them out or keep them on your bench until they return. We provide regular injury updates to help you make informed decisions.
Q: What’s the difference between Classic and Head-to-Head leagues? A: Classic leagues rank all teams based on total points, while Head-to-Head leagues pit you against a different opponent each week in a match format.
Q: Can I make changes to my team after the season starts? A: Yes! You can make transfers throughout the season, subject to your league’s rules. Most formats give you a certain number of free transfers per week, with additional transfers costing points.
Q: What is the best strategy for selecting players? A: Focus on players who consistently perform well, consider upcoming fixtures, and maintain a balanced squad. It’s important to look at form, fitness, and value for money when making selections.
Q: How do price changes work? A: Player prices fluctuate based on transfer activity. Popular players’ prices rise as more managers buy them, while less popular players’ prices fall. Understanding these changes is key to building team value.
