Bench Boost allows a team to receive points for their starting XI and substitutes, and can be used once a season. During each round, the FPL manager will have between 30 and 120 seconds, with the default being 90 seconds, to pick a player to join their squad. That allows for team updates from managers in press conferences and gives you a clearer idea of which players from your team, or those that you plan to transfer in, will be playing or not. After the draft has taken place there is the opportunity to bring in unassigned players via waiver requests. For example, a tie for first place will see Players 1 and 2 awarded three points each, with Player 3 receiving one point. "The three best performing players in each match will be awarded bonus points. Your skipper will score double points during every Gameweek and be sure to always select from your strongest players with favourable fixtures. You are limited to a maximum of three players from each Premier League team. It goes without saying but don't waste the chance to use all chips available. After each Gameweek, certain player prices will increase or decrease depending on their popularity among the FPL community, related to transfer activity. Each registered Premier League player from the 20 teams in England's top-flight league is assigned a price, with the top-value players considered to be the 'best' and most likely to score the most points over the season. Make sure you have at least two decent players on your bench, goalkeeper aside.

Neco Williams (£4.0m) is certainly a name to monitor if he gets a move away from Anfield as expected, with Fulham and Nottingham Forest reportedly circling. Timothy Castagne (£4.5m) of course presents some rotation risk to Pereira and Justin, so pre-season will be keenly observed to see which full-back pairing Brendan Rodgers plumps for. The nailed, if injury-prone, Jonny Evans also re-enters the game at £4.5m. New Brighton signing, teenage Paraguayan hotshot Julio Enciso (£5.0m), is also expected to be loaned out – likely abroad – but if he does enough to make an impression on Graham Potter in pre-season and stays on the south coast, will be one for the longer-term watchlist. Reports of the death of the £4.5m midfielder have been greatly exaggerated, meanwhile: there are 56 of them in total this year, with more likely to be added during the summer. Leon Bailey (£5.0m), riddled with injury in 2021/22 but trialled by Villa boss Steven Gerrard as an ‘out of position’ striker in the run-in, is a name to keep tabs on in pre-season. Manuel Lanzini (£5.5m), who deputised for the now-retired Mark Noble on spot-kicks last season, will be one of the cheaper penalty-taking assets in the game, if indeed he retains responsibility from 12 yards at West Ham. Williams spent the second half of last season on loan at the Cottagers, registering two goals and two assists in just 14 Championship appearances. It remains to be seen whether Jurgen Klopp reprises his strategy of fielding Matip domestically and Ibrahima Konate (£5.0m) chiefly in the cup competitions, as the latter is as teasingly priced as Matip was last season. That’s all to do with City’s dominance of the ball and concession of few chances, as Ederson banked save points in just eight of his 38 matches last season and accrued just four bonus points. Ederson (£5.5m) was a notable omission from the Manchester City reveal on Friday and he now has a starting price, which unsurprisingly is identical to Alisson (£5.5m). Ederson kept a joint-league-best 20 clean sheets in the Premier League last season and yet still only finished nine points clear of Jose Sa (£5.0m), who had registered nine fewer shut-outs.
