Wish I did, then I wouldn't have to look at how badly I've done this week.

Unfortunately it's not that simple. Until 2 years ago, bonus points were awarded usually to the best 3 players on the field. Now, they have tried to take the subjective nature out of it by basing it on player performance index (PPI). Players who score the goals, make the most passes, successful tackles, shots on target etc have the best chance of obtaining the points.
It sounds ok in theory but it just doesn't work as illustrated by Fellani and several other occasions last season, often involving David Silva.
They may consider a change for next season but this is how it'll be for the rest of the year I'm afraid. You can monitor each players PPI by clicking on the "i" next to their name and going into the players history. Their PPI score for each gameweek is under the heading "ESP"
