So you've just taken control of your team but you're not sure what to do next. The first thing you need to do is get your squad ready and pick your team for its first match under your managerial control. |

1. On the top menu select (teams->your team->squad) here you are able to view all the players in your squad and review their skills and abilities. For the time being, just take a note of their fitness and rating levels. With these in mind we move onto first team selection. 2. On the top menu select (teams->your team->team selection) You should first choose a formation for your team for the upcoming match and the 11 first team players plus 3 substitutes you wish to play. Try to choose your best players for the formation that you have chosen. Each player has a letter in brackets (G,D,M,A) to remind you of their preferred playing position. Once you have selected your formation and players, click on the "save" button. If there are any problems, this is usually down to choosing the same player in more than one position (you may need to hit the back button on your browser if your selection was lost). Once you have your team and formation selected, you can adjust your in-game tactics if you wish (remember to press the "save" button after you have finished with your changes) Now that you have your team selected ready for your next match, you can concentrate on some other aspects of managing your team. 3. On the top menu select (teams->your team->sponsors) Here you can check on any sponsorship deals your club has. If you have a free slot and a waiting sponsorship deal, you can gain some extra money for your club by accepting the sponsorship. |
