There still seems to be some confusion amongst the Fantasy Premier League community regarding a number of elements associated with the changes implemented by the game this week.

To clarify matters, we’ve put together a list of points that has, this afternoon, been checked and confirmed by the FPL.

  • Transfers made this week are all free. Any points deducted from your total will be refunded to you once the Gameweek two deadline has passed.
  • Any Wildcards played in advance of Gameweek two will be returned to players once the Gameweek two deadline has passed.

  • The number of transfers you make in advance of Gameweek two’s deadline will be wiped and reset to zero once the deadline passed. This will mean that they will not count against you and become a factor should you be tied on points with a manager in your mini-league.

  • Price rises are frozen ahead of Gameweek two. Once the deadline has passed all transfer totals that are collected by players will be reset. Therefore, players will need to accrue further transfers in and transfers out next week in order to have their price rise or fall.

  • Gameweek one points will remain in the game and count towards the FPL overall points tallies. Mini-league admins can decide to reset their mini-leagues to start on Gameweek two should they wish. In the interest of those managers unable to log in and make changes prior to Gameweek one, Fantasy Football Scout will reset their mini-leagues accordingly.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Is Hilario defo in for Cech? Rotation risk for Fabio. Horrible fixtues for Cahill. Otherwise - terrific.

      two general questions:

      where can we view transfer history? or is it not available yet?

      and

      is the vice captain (vc) no longer displayed? previously, there was a vc next to that player

        Suarez a million times over. It doesn't matter who he plays against. I think we saw that against Man Ure last season and Argentina in the Copa, he's top dog, and he's cheaper... and Bent's playing in a defensive team.

        Mikel did squeeze a cheeky bonus point or two last week but its hard to see that continuing. whilst we're on chelsea will their back 4 stay the same this week, likely to see bosingwa and alex rotate now?

            Mikel isnt a good pick i reckon..but he would play..AVB said he is available and i dont think there is any reason that he wont play..morever his family has pleaded him to play for CFC ths weekend.

            I disagree. If Brana is fit he goes straight back in. Alex might be moved to Juventus this week on loan. I would seriously consider Ivanovich folks. He was a rock all year and will play CB and some RB as well when Luiz gets back. Problem is that Bosingwa looked great last week and it might be hard for AVB to take him out as Cole and Bosingwa give the team some width. Ivanovich more likely to play when they need more solid defense though.

            Again, Ivanovich should be first choice nearly every week with an occasional rotation. He is .5 cheaper than Ashley and will score 2-3 goals. I have put him back in my squad straight away.

    Which backline is better:

    A. Simpson and Bosingwa

    or

    B. Enrique and S Taylor.

    My other defenders are Kompany, Senderos and DeLat.

    I prefer B because I reckon S Taylor will get a few points this year and not sure Bosingwa is a long-term option, but Chelksi more likely to keep clan sheet than Liverpool.

      Agree with your analysis, I'd go for B. Could go Bosingwa, but be prepared to transfer him out in a week or 2 if he doesn't play
