Bundesliga Fantasy rules changes season- 2024/25
Unlike previous seasons, now you can select only 3 players from each team. That shouldn’t be a great shock as we are well used in the FPL.
New points system goes huge:
80 points for a goal from a forward, 100 for a midfielder and 120 for a defender. Wait, a massive 200 points if somehow your goalkeeper scores. Assists are rewarded from 40 to 150 points, depending on position. Penalty saves get 120, bonuses of 20 for a brace and 60 for a hatrick are added too.
For a first time, dribble earns you 5 points, challenge won, either on the air or the ground, gets 5 points as well. Every successful cross brings 7 points and 1 for every successful pass.
On the flipside:
Deduction of 20 points for a yellow card, get a second one and it’s another – 60. Miss a spot kick is -60, scoring an own goal -80, every foul prompts 5 and a massive -100 for a strait red card.

Ivan, is Pavlenka injured ?
He’s not marked as such and there is no news of injury
Oh well, GW1 was a bit of a crash with 107 points ending up with 3 defenders scoring minus and my team is a right mess. Ive made five transfers and would like to make a sixth but we’ll go with it and hope that better things will come.
That’s what you call a score, with 5 to play
Ivan, we are neck to neck in BL. I am 3 pts ahead of u. With no PL, focus on BL
Reg, I’ve never had such a poor week like this one.
30 points with only two players to play. Usually at that stage is never below 100
Yes. I am on 44 pts and forgot to sub in my schalke player who got 9 pts.
I made a total f up. Got busy earlier and left Grifo on the bench, plus forgot to put the star on Sildillia.
Not to mention that yesterday moved out Angelino as he was benched, then he ended with 9 points.
It has been a horror week overall
Overall in FBL I guess this week is relatively a low scoring week with big guns did not fire. On top of that Bayern rotated heavily. I guess I got only 2 players to score above 10. The rest are single digit holders. I sold 3 players who scored more than the players I bought. I am not liking these 5 transfer rule. It kind of provokes to sell good players for good players and then its a lottery.
Bayern lose to Augsburg. They are now winless in 4 Bundesliga games. Can finally some other team capitalize and win the Bundesliga? Lewandowski is a huge miss i guess.
He is Reg. Another poor round, Dortmund managed to scrape just a goal at home against Schalke.
That is what you call a score.
45 points from 3 players and 12 more to go
