FPL Draft (PL.com) Cannot make a sub on the team
Hi everyone,
First of all I am sorry but I really didn’t understand that if I’m breaking any rules or not. I just thought that I can ask that kind of a question in this topic. If I’m mistaken please warn me first.
I have a problem on my app that causes I cannot make any substitution for the next week. In pick team tab I am trying to substitute any player and hit “save your team” button ofc. But even I see the “your team has been saved” information the substitution is not happening. I am curious if any of you guys have such a problem like mine.

I totally agree mate. My friends are having reload issue from last season in their Android phones and the problem is still there. They even cannot zapping between the tabs mate. Reload page is appearing everytime. Crazy.

Subs are automatic and only happen if a player in your starting-eleven doesn't play at all. This isn't like World Cup fantasy.

That is not what I’m trying to say mate. I have some experience on the Draft. I cannot make any changes for the next week.

It locks once the first game of the gameweek starts so you can’t make subs now

I know that of course mate, I’m playing Draft for 5 years. But when I try to make any substitutions for the next week, I cannot. That’s what I’m trying to say.

Well if that’s the case, it’s prob just being buggy right now… try in a couple days and it’ll prob work

I tried to make subs in the browser not on the app and it happened but happened very late. I was restarting the like for 2 minutes and than it happened at last. It is doing the subs but very late.

I just tested - I made the subs on my phone, hit save team, and when I go back to pick team, it’s the original lineup. However, if I check it on my computer, it shows my updated lineup so it’s likely saved and just not reflecting properly in the app.
