The game and this guide are still in development. Details may change, and your feedback is welcome.

01 What matchday offers

  • Before kickoff you see the manager's likely XI (a preview, he picks on the day) with tonight's effective power and the odds
  • edit that XI, or make subs and tweaks while watching live, and it counts as meddling unless he defers to you
  • or resolve instantly
  • afterwards a full report. Player ratings, chance quality and the key moments

02 Leagues, promotion and the drop

  • The pyramid runs up to six tiers deep in England (other nations are shallower, as in real life), with promotion, relegation and play-offs
  • the coloured zones on the table are the fate lines. Point at them to read which is which
  • the fate letters on the history page: C champions
  • P promoted
  • PO via the play-offs
  • R relegated
  • finish higher and the season-end money grows with the league

03 Domestic cups

  • Every cup follows its country's real rules. Our league tier decides which round we enter
  • in Germany lower tiers come in through their regional cup: its winner and runner-up earn a DFB-Pokal place whatever tier they play in
  • some lower-league cups open with groups before the knockout
  • winning brings money, history and the fans' hearts

04 Europe and the world stage

  • The three European cups run a 36-team single-table league phase. The top ranks go straight to the deep rounds, the rest play off
  • each nation's quota comes from its coefficient points
  • and the Club World Finals arrives every four years, all reachable from the competition picker

05 International breaks

  • During breaks the top leagues rest while the lower ones play on. Check the calendar before planning
  • called-up players leave for duty and return tired, sometimes hurt
  • a cap is an honour that lifts both his spirit and his price

06 Yellow cards and bans, per competition

  • Bookings and bans are counted separately in every competition League = one-match ban at 5 yellows Cups = at 2 Europe = at 3 National team = at 2 Serve the ban and the count resets
  • a league ban never touches a cup tie (and vice versa)
  • a red card = an immediate ban in that competition
  • the «1 to ban» badge in the squad table flags who is one booking away

07 Competition stats

  • Each competition page has its own Stats tab. Scorers, assists, clean sheets, ratings, man of the match
  • switch competition or season with the page's pickers
  • every name clicks through to a profile

08 Watching the match live

  • Follow it minute by minute with the momentum line, or skip to full time and let the manager run it. A skip can't be undone
  • the Team orders button works mid-match: substitutions within the quota and plan tweaks count as meddling (−2 for the match, however many changes) unless the manager defers to you
  • with no manager in the chair it's all free

09 Preseason friendlies

  • In July and August you can arrange up to 2 extra friendlies from the foot of the fixtures card on Match Day
  • they sit in the calendar like any match (grey edge) but stay out of the season numbers on Our Competitions
