A wildcard in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is a bonus chip that allows you to make unlimited transfers to your team without incurring any point hits. FPL managers get two wildcards per season, one for the first half of the season and another for the second half. The first wildcard must be played before the Gameweek 20 deadline, and the second wildcard is available to be used between the Gameweek 20 deadline and the end of the season. A wildcard can be a huge advantage if used at the right point in the season, such as during a fixture swing for several clubs or around double gameweeks. It is typically best to use the first wildcard during the first international break after Gameweek 4, while the second one is best used around Gameweek 20. A minimum of five transfers is the right justification for using a wildcard, particularly if it involves moving on or off premium assets due to fixture swings and providing depth in captaincy picks. A wildcard is the only chip that cannot be rescinded, and once you have chosen to play it, there is no going back.
