I have created a team now... A question, how does this work? :p The players will they be as good as they are ranked now or will that change in the next season? What I am asking is should I get players who played excellent in the 03/04 season or those that I think will play good in 04/05 season? And will this be in real time with the premier league? I cant seem to find a guide or something explaining this...

Yeah, you have to pick players that you think will perform well this premiership season. Your player will be awarded points according to the criteria below as the season unfolds.

It is the team at the end of the season that accumulates the most points that wins the league.

In this sense, it is better to pick players that will score well in the criteria above as oppose to those who are actually better over all players.

Make sure you don't forget to join the Neowin League!

can you change players in the middle of the season?

What solution do you think is the best, some greet players and some very poor, or the whole team being average?

I calculated total score per price and found that together you get more total point for your team with 2 players with 200 points than several players with a lower score...

But I will tweak it a bit, I am not satisfied...

^^^^In answer to above post^^^^

I have got the base of two or three very good players which will score highly then I have surrounded by cheaper players. My cheaper players are mostly young and unproven. This is a bit of a gamble, but if it pays off then I will have a few quality players whilst only paying a small amount. I have also made sure each player is likely to score highly in every catagory (assists, goals etc).

I also used another 'trick' for chosing a good squad but I will reveal later so you lot don't copy me.... :shifty:

(Although, again, it is a bit of a gamble).

We have eleven teams now! I am actually quite looking forward to this!

Just been making a few transfers - I must change about two players every day!

Ok I'm in, Team Relegation has joined the fight :D

Once the season starts transfers do not go through till the next week and only get 1 free transfer per week i think, any more than that cost you points!

Yeah, thats right!

Just making sure I pick the best players for my cause before the season starts so I won't have to do too much transfering during the season!

:cool:

      I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.
