🚨 FPL 2025/26 introduces a game-changing update!

Fantasy Premier League is returning with new features, and this time, defensive contributions are set to make a real impact.

Players will now earn bonus points based on defensive actions during matches:

🔒 Defenders get X bonus points for every XX combined clearances, blocks, interceptions, and tackles.

🧱 Midfielders & Forwards will receive X points for every XX defensive actions, including recoveries.

Had this been in place last season, Everton’s James Tarkowski would’ve led all players in bonus points (44), while Moises Caicedo topped midfielders with XX.

Do you like this direction for FPL?
And are you planning to play this season? 👇
