Midfielders are the glue to every good fantasy team considering theyāre generally the most reliable point earners across the board. In addition to goals and assists, midfielders can earn additional points through a variety of actions. Loading up on set piece takers and high-volume passers is a good strategy to get the best of both worlds. Get familiar with the 2021 point scoring system here to maximize your scoring potential.
New kids on the block
Fantasy monsters like Nicolas Lodeiro and Alejandro Pozuelo are back, and there are a number of exciting new players to work with this season. Javier āChofisā Lopez is expected to pull the strings for San Jose, and Tomas Pochettino was brought in to be a creative force in the Austin FC midfield. With uncertainty surrounding some of the unknowns, itās worth leaning on the reliable veterans and taking a wait-and-see approach as the newcomers adapt to the league.
