        Utterly terrible - I get why the ref missed it, as the contact looked accidental, but the fact that the VAR didn’t even deem it worth a second look is pretty inexcusable!

          So what about defcon points being awarded fairly/unfairly because FPL closed the game?

          Imagine they just handed out imaginary assists to players. Has brought DM’s into the game but then killed the likes of Grealish who you would buy for assists and made strikers worse picks. It hasn’t brought more players into the game overall

            Goals and assists can change after review too up until an hour at the r the final game. They’re no handing out imaginary defcons either.

            How did Defcons impact Grealish as a pick?

            For me, defenders should not get defcons.

      Don't blame defcons. Blame the lack of quality attackers in the league.

      Also 5 subs is a huge killer for most attacking mids and forwards.

        The value of an assist has been lessened with defcons a factor. Id like an assist for a defender to be worth 4 points next season.

          Attacking mids are more likely to get assist or goals than defensive mids. We’ve had years of picking DM’s for the hope of 2 points off the bench if required. Now they are being rewarded for defensive actions to level the playing field a bit. I don’t see why that lessens the impact of attacking players getting returns.

        100% this. The table for midfield points is not skewed because of Defcons, there has just been no standout midfield picks consistently returning. I mean Casemiro has the same number of goals as Cunha, Mbuemo, Rogers, Wilson etc.

        The midfield picks have just been poor and no premiums this year, i.e. Salah, Palmer, Saka that are must haves (bar Bruno)
