Breaking Down The BPS – Defending

549 Comments
Share

Today brings a close to our series of articles that examine the new BPS system introduced to the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) format this summer. Having focussed on Pass Completion and Creativity in the first two instalments, all that remains left to cover are the relevant defensive statistics.

When it comes to defensive actions, the FPL breaks down the awarding of BPS as follows…

For every 8 clearances, blocks and interceptions (total)
For every 8 recoveries
Making 3 successful tackles (net*)
*Net successful tackles is the total of all successful tackles minus any unsuccessful tackles. Players will not be awarded negative BPS points for this statistic.

    I really hope Benteke doesn't play this week. Spurs won't keep a CS if he plays

    David Moyes on #mufc fitness:"I'll monitor training, 1 or 2 are nursing knocks so we'll need to look at it but hopefully they will be okay."

    Well I still can't decide between Suarez or Michu for captain...

    Suarez is away, but Newcastle are leaky. He has just played in South America so may be fatigued, but he is a class act so I'm not sure this will bother him. He hasn't let me down in either of the games I have captained him in.

    Michu is at home to a poor Sunderland team, but Gus Poyet is their new manager, which could have a galvanizing effect on them. He is always a threat going forward, but has only scored one league goal this season so far.

    There are just too many factors to make an informed decision! I even flipped a coin earlier and I refused to accept the Suarez ruling. Maybe that is a sign that I know I should be captaining Michu?

    Does anyone have any reasons why the wouldn't captain Michu or Suarez?

    Just been forced into a -4 of Jerome Thomas to Ravel purely because Jerome is dropping tonight and Ravel is rising meaning its a 0.2m swing...and I'm benching Ravel..wise?
