Here is a quick recap of the rules.... Team selection Select your squad of 15 players from the lists posted below, you have a budget of £100m and you will need 2 Goalkeepers, 5 Defenders, 5 Midfielders and 3 Forwards, no more than 3 players from the same club can be selected. 442 and 433 are the only allowed formations. Be careful in your selection as players currently injured are included. You will be able to make changes to your squad up until Wednesday 5th of August if you wish to. Your first team selection of eleven should be posted no later than Friday 7th of August. If, in future, you forget to post your team selection, I will use the team that you selected from the previous week. Scoring Any player scores = 1 goal added to your match total Every second assist from the defence and midfield = 1 goal added to your total score, ie 2 assists from the defence and midfield = 1 goal added to your total score 4 assists from the defence and midfield = 2 goals added to your total score 6 or more assists from the defense and midfield = 3 goals added to your total score (Only assists from Defenders and Midfielders will count) Keeper concedes 0 - 1 goal = 0 goals added to the opponents total score 2 - 3 goals = 1 goal added to the opponents total score 4 or more = 2 goals added to the opponents total score If the Keeper you select does not play in the match, it is an automatic goal added to the opponent's total score Back Four concede 0 - 4 goals = 0 goals added to the opponents total score 5 - 8 goals = 1 goal added to the opponents total score 9 or more = 2 goals added to the opponents total score Every Defender that you select that does not play will mean an automatic 3 goals to your defence's collective total. Every time a player receives a red card that is a goal added to the opponent's score. I will take all information for scorers and assists from the BBC website. Match Points The match totals will be added up and if you score more goals than your opponent you will get 3 points for a win. Level scores is 1 point each. You receive no points if you score less than your opponent. Transfers There will be a chance to refresh your squad every fourth Tuesday, when you will be able to make 3 alterations to your squad keeping to the £100m budget and swapping like for like players ie Defender for a Defender etc. The first transfer window will start on 8th September and will end on 11th September. The first round of matches will be played over the weekend of the 8th -10th of August and I will post the results and league table on the 11th.
Now you need to post your starting XIs and the formation that you wish to use. Remember that only 442 and 433 are allowed. You must submit your teams by Friday 7th August. If you wish your team to have a particular kit, then quote it with your team sheets ( it can be any team's kit so use your personal favourite, except Saints!)
