1. Squad
- Use your budget to build a squad of 15 football players - 2 Goalkeepers, 5 Defenders, 5 Midfielders and 3 Forwards.
- You can buy up to 3 players from the same club.
2. Pick your starting 11
- Select your best 11 from your 15 player squad for the upcoming Gameweek before the deadline.
- Your lineup must have 1 Goalkeeper and at least 3 Defenders, 3 Midfielders and 1 Attacker.
- Choose a Captain and Vice-Captain from your first 11 players.
- Your starting 11 score the points each Gameweek based on their performance.
2. Pick your starting 11
- If a player from starting 11 doesn't feature in a Gameweek, a bench player could be subbed in automatically.
- A player is considered to have played in a Gameweek if they appear on the pitch or receive a yellow/red card.
- If your starting goalkeeper doesn’t play, he will be replaced by your bench goalkeeper — but only if the bench goalkeeper played.
- If an outfield player doesn’t play, they’ll be replaced by the highest-priority outfield substitute who played and fits within valid formation rules. For example, if your team has the minimum 3 defenders, a non-playing defender can only be replaced by another defender.
3. Transfers
- You can make unlimited transfers at no cost before your initial Gameweek deadline.
- After the first deadline, you'll receive 1 free transfer each Gameweek. Additional transfers will cost you 4 points each.
- Unused free transfers carry over to the next Gameweek. You can store up to 5 transfers.
4. Chips
- Wildcard: You can make unlimited transfers at no cost for the Gameweek you have activate the Wildcard.
- Free Hit: You can make unlimited transfers at no cost for a single Gameweek. By the end of the Gameweek, your team will revert to its previous state.
- Bench Boost: All 15 players in your squad will score points for the Gameweek, including those on the bench.
- Triple Captain: Your Captain will earn triple points instead of double for the Gameweek.
