How to play Premier Draft
Choose an era, name your team and draft an XI plus four substitutes. A player can only appear once in your team, even when several seasons of that player are available.
Choose your formation and tactics
Pick a formation, place players in suitable positions and appoint a captain. Choose a cautious, balanced or attacking plan: cautious play reduces attacking chances for both sides, while attacking play adds chances and defensive risk. Your tactical plan locks when the cup starts and stays fixed until it ends. Substitutions and injury cover remain available.
Daily game and free draft
Each day has planned bonuses such as extra pack refreshes, golden rounds or a higher legend-pack chance. You can claim the daily entry once. Your first button then switches to unlimited free drafts. Türkiye and Premier have independent daily entries and progress.
Start a two-player draft
- Open Draft with a friend and enter your manager name.
- Select Create room. You can choose an era under Room settings first.
- Share the invite code or link. Your friend enters their name and invite on the same entry screen, then selects Join.
- Each manager builds and submits an XI plus four substitutes. Once at least two squads are ready, the room owner can start the league.
Rooms support 2–8 managers. Matches use the submitted squads. Pass the phone is a separate mode for taking turns on one device.
Play against a specific year
Open Historical Arena and choose one of your saved squads. Search by club, year or player; select a real club-season opponent. Single match needs one opponent, while a cup or league needs seven. The game selects a legal XI and bench only from that club and season. These are simulated lineups and results, not reconstructions of actual fixtures.
Your career and competition
Win the cup to qualify for Premier's Top 100. Shared squads, friend rooms, challenges and player statistics belong to the Premier competition. You can switch to Türkiye in the header; saved records stay with their original mode. Manager names are shared between the two competitions.
What is in the archive?
The source snapshot covers 46 clubs across 27 seasons, 2000/01–2026/27, with 20 clubs represented each season. There are 20,038 playable base cards plus 42 legend selections. The membership archive includes 5,942 player identities; 38 memberships with only a broad source position use clearly marked estimated game roles. The sources do not establish every academy or unused registration, and 2025/26–2026/27 are squad snapshots.
How the game ratings work
Ratings and individual attributes are gameplay estimates, not official EA, FC or Football Manager ratings. Where available, appearances and scoring contributions inform the estimate. Missing seasons use a nearby observed season with age and time adjustments, or a neutral baseline. A disclosed editorial prior helps recognised historical players when the statistics coverage is sparse. Legend selections use actual club-season memberships and estimated peak strength; they are not extra players invented for those clubs.
Missing factual statistics stay unknown. Career-level positions may differ from the position played in a particular historical match. Cards marked General position use broad defensive or midfield game roles where the source has no precise position. A displayed club-season squad is therefore a playable selection from the archive rather than a verified starting XI.
