I'm going to give this game a go this season.The game looks quite involved so i'm looking for some advice on:-

- formations
- players who score well
- tactics
- subs,transferes
any advice would be helpful

Best advice is to read the scoring VERY carefully and make sure your players are playing regularly.

Scoring Points
The game will start with the first Premier League matches scheduled for 13th August 2011. Here’s how to score:

All players
Full appearance +2 pts
Part appearance +1 pt
Win bonus +3, Draw bonus +1 pt
Goal scored (inc penalty shoot-outs) keeper/defender +10 pts, midfielder +8 pts, striker +5 pts
Key contribution to a goal +3 pts
Yellow card –2 pts (2 yellow cards leading to a red card will count –5 pts)
Sent off –5 pts
Missed penalty (inc penalty shoot-outs) – 5 pts

For defenders and goalkeepers only:
Clean sheet (players completing full match only) +4 pts
Clean sheet (players completing part of a match only) +2 pts
Goal conceded –1 pt
For goalkeepers only: penalty save (inc shoot-outs) +5 pts (for these points to be awarded the goalkeeper must have touched the ball with some part of his body

Your nominated captain scores double points.

Your substitutes on the bence do not score points.

Scores and leaderboards will be updated daily on the Game Website.

Don't go Cheap on Def. A top 4 defender will pick u decent points for clean sheets and wins, add a couple of goals in and the right rotation combination to get full games out of them all and you're ahead

A cheap VFM enabled midfielder (this yes Charlie Adam) will be a bonus to pick from the start

No stand out strikers this yr, if Tevez leaves so that's A lottery.

Make sure all your picks are starters and regulars and you're then looking for some luck

Adam is not availible to pick

I think he means this years Charlie Adam. Cheap point machine the golden chalice

I am looking at Sinclair (Swans) and Hoolihan (Norwich) this season.

Exactly my point, cheap as chips last yr, will be overpriced this yr

Need to find the promotion enablers

Quick scan of the list and the above....so much water to flow before kick off though, transfer window does not shut until well after the season starts though

Hoolihan 5.2
Sinclair 5.2
Taarabt 5.4
Bannan 3.8
Benayoun 4.3
Albririghton 5.6
Rose 3.7
Ben Arfa 5.2
Rodwell 4.1
Kranjkar 4.4
O'hara 5.1

Ben Arfa promised much last season.

Ben Arfa will have a good season this year, mark my words and with Newcastle becoming a majority French team I see only good things.
