Size is bonus points won this season; the ring is how much of the maximum 3 per start he averages — a full ring means he takes bonus almost every time he plays.

Players under 300 minutes are left out: with a handful of minutes the per-start figure is noise.

Bonus is the last three points of every match: the top three players by BPS — FPL's own match score — get 3, 2 and 1. It is decided by the game, not by a pundit, and it is the difference between a 6-point haul and a 9-point one.

BPS adds up goals, assists, clean sheets, saves, completed passes, tackles, recoveries and big chances created, and subtracts cards, penalties missed, big chances missed and errors leading to a goal. A striker who scores and does nothing else can finish below a defender who keeps a clean sheet and wins every duel.

The column that answers the real question is per start, not the total. A player on 3 bonus in 5 starts collects something most weeks; one on the same 3 from 20 minutes here and there does not. Anyone under 300 minutes is left out for that reason.

During a gameweek the provisional bonus is already counted where it changes your position: your live rank and your mini-league table both apply it before FPL confirms it.

The questions people ask

Who has the most FPL bonus points this season?
Erling Haaland leads Fantasy Premier League bonus points with 9 from 167 BPS in 5 starts, an average of 1.8 of the 3 available per start (24 September 2026).
How are FPL bonus points decided?
The three players with the highest Bonus Points System (BPS) score in a match get 3, 2 and 1 extra points. BPS is FPL's own match score built from goals, assists, clean sheets, saves, passes completed, tackles, recoveries, big chances created and negative events like cards, misses and errors. A tie at the top shares the points: two players level on first get 3 each and the next gets 1.
What is a good BPS in FPL?
BPS only matters relative to the other 21 players on the pitch that day, so there is no fixed target: a defender on a clean sheet with a goal usually lands in the high 30s and wins the 3, while a busy midfielder in a 3-3 can score more BPS and take nothing if three forwards score. That is why this page shows bonus per start next to the total.
