How it works
Three names at a time, eleven picks, one target. The tallies stay hidden — it is a test of what you know, not what you can read off a card.
Three names come up on the board. Their goal tallies are hidden — this is a test of what you know, not what you can read off a card.
Every player in the game has really scored what the board says.
Choose one and put them in a slot they can play. Tap the card then the slot, or drag the card onto the pitch. Eleven picks fills a 4-4-2.
One slot per pick, and a player can only go where they played.
Your XI's combined top-flight league goals should total exactly 442. Not 441. Not 443. Get there and you get the gold.
Well-linked sides pick up Chemistry, Silverware and Experience bonuses.
Two ways to play
The Daily XI deals everyone the same three names in the same order, so the argument afterwards is about the picks and nothing else. It resets at midnight, London time. Endless runs are yours alone, as many as you like.
The squad bonus
Bonuses never move the total. They are the tie-break between two XIs the same distance from 442 — and the line in your share text that says you did it properly.
