Fantasy Premier League managers, brace yourselves for a season like no other! The 2024/25 campaign is bringing a host of game-changing features that will revolutionise your approach to the world's most popular fantasy football game. Let's dive into these exciting changes and explore how they might impact your FPL strategy.
FPL Launch Offer: Get full Premium Plus preseason access for just £1! This includes first drafts from all Elite XI: Team Reveal managers, who boast an impressive 83 top 10k finishes.
In a move that's sure to delight strategic thinkers, FPL has expanded the number of bankable free transfers from two to a whopping five. This change opens up a world of possibilities for patient managers who like to plan ahead. Imagine the potential for navigating tricky fixture swings or capitalising on double gameweeks with such flexibility at your disposal!
Perhaps even more exciting is the news that your saved transfers will no longer reset to zero when you play the Wildcard or Free Hit chips. This synergy between transfers and chips adds a new layer of strategy to the game. You could, for instance, save up five free transfers, activate your Wildcard to overhaul your team, and then immediately have five more free transfers to fine-tune your squad in the following gameweek. It's a powerful combination that rewards forward-thinking managers.
FPL has always kept managers on their toes, but the introduction of a "Mystery Chip" takes unpredictability to a new level. Set to be revealed and become playable in January 2025, this new chip is shrouded in secrecy. Will it allow for a mini-wildcard? Perhaps a chance to captain your entire team for a week? The possibilities are endless, and the anticipation will surely keep managers buzzing with excitement throughout the first half of the season.
The FPL team hasn't just focused on gameplay mechanics; they've also given the user interface a facelift. The new pitch design, borrowed from FPL Challenge, promises improved usability. Additionally, the introduction of Player Cards will provide enhanced information when making substitutions or transfers. These visual and informational upgrades should make team management more intuitive and enjoyable.
Goalkeepers, often the unsung heroes of FPL teams, are getting a significant boost. Each goal scored by a goalkeeper will now be worth a massive 10 points, up from the previous 6. Fingers crossed Alisson comes up for some more corners!
The Bonus Points System (BPS) is also receiving a makeover, with changes that aim to reward a wider range of player actions. While saving a penalty will now be worth slightly less (9 BPS instead of 15), new additions like points for goal line clearances, fouls won, and shots on target will provide a more nuanced reflection of a player's performance. Defenders and goalkeepers will need to be wary, though, as they'll now be penalised 4 BPS for each goal conceded.
