This checklist provides quick steps that should be taken before EVERY game to make sure that you stand a better chance of beating your opponent. Remember, this doesnt guarantee success but definately increases your chance of getting a good result.
* Always select the players with the highest skill and most form. If you cant decide between 2 players, remember 3 form equals 1 skill bar.
* Remember: Team formation is not that important!! Select a formation based on your best players.
* NEVER play players out of position unless they have the 'any position' skill.
* Check the referees skill and harshness ratings and set your tactics accordingly.
* If the average age of your team is below 26 years of age, then you should definately pay a win bonus. The more under 26 the team are, the more of a win bonus to pay.
* If you have any greedy players in your team, pay a win bonus.
* Always buy your opponents last 3 played match reports and check thier tactics for any trends. Set your tactics accordingly.
* NEVER play very offensive away from home.
