Pick your squad

With a budget of £100 million, choose a squad of 15 players made up of:

• 2 Goalkeepers
• 5 Defenders
• 5 Midfielders
• 3 Forwards

No more than 3 players can be selected from a single team.

Scoring

The players in your squad score points based on how they perform in Premier League matches.

No matter which team you support you'll soon find yourself cheering on every player who's in your team.

Create and join leagues

Ever said to your friends, "I could do better than that"? Well this game is your chance to show friends and colleagues just how much you know about the beautiful game.

You can compete in up to 10 private leagues.

Other leagues

All registered teams are entered in the overall league, a country league and a league for supporters of your favourite Premier League team

You can also choose to be added to a public league with other game players.

Choose your team each Gameweek

Each Gameweek, pick a first 11 from your squad of 15 and sit back as they earn real-time points for actions such as clean sheets, assists and goals.

Captains

Choose a captain from your starting team who will earn double points for your team.

Prioritise substitutes

Your substitutes are there in case one of your starters doesn't play. It's up to you to prioritise the order they come on.

Make transfers

If your players aren't performing on the pitch, you always have the option of transfers to bring in new players.

One free transfer per Gameweek

With one free transfer each Gameweek there's always a chance to tinker with your squad. Be careful though, extra transfers deduct points from your total so are probably better saved for injury or fixture list emergencies.

Market driven player prices

Player prices vary during the season dependent on the popularity of the player in the transfer market. So there's room for the shrewd manager to use transfers to increase their squad's value.
