What is player position?
There are four types of players in a football team. Forwards, Midfielders, Defenders and Goalkeepers. At the starting of each season players playing position get locked. Please note that this is only for the Fantasy league. In real game it is upto managers to play a player at any position. But in FPL it effects the points for managers.
How it effects the points?
For a goal, points are awarded as per player's position.
FWD (Forward) : 4 points
MID (midfielder) : 5 points
DEF (Defender) : 6 points
For assist every type of player gets 3 points. Position also effects the bonus point system.
