How it works

You manage a single club for now: one team sheet, one league, five minutes a day. More clubs come later.

Real names on the team sheet. Each one gets an archetype and attributes.

Diamond, Box or Arrow, plus Control, Press or Direct. Good calls nudge the odds - they don't decide the game.

Two halves of 2:30 with a halftime team talk, three subs and live commentary naming every action.

Role-aware ratings, player of the match, key moments and plain-English reasons it went that way.

Clubs marked CPU are run by the computer. Their players are real names with real careers too - they play their own fixtures every round whether you watch or not.

One league fixture a day. Overnight your mates develop at what they actually did, form and fatigue carry over, and fans arrive or drift off with results.

• Your league fixture unlocks at midnight and can be played once - five minutes, then that's the day.
• Next morning, the Clubhouse opens on your round-up: how each mate rated, what changed in their game, where the club sits and who you play next.
• Play every day and the streak builds. Miss one and you keep everything - the streak just starts again.
• Fancy an extra game? Friendlies are always there, they just don't touch the table or the streak.
