Points and leaderboards will go up this weekend, transfers for existing teams will be frozen the same time, although new members will be able to create a new team for a while after

On its way, please see above

We're adding that in the next few days, along with the ability to add a custom strip to your chosen team

You can change your line-ups each week between Thursday Midnight and Saturday 10am (GMT).

We may add some other slots at some point. I'll post this info to the FAQ when I get a moment

Hmmm.... Maybe Matt closed the transfer window already...

Nope he didn't I just bought a new player

Did you click the 'save team' icon on the bottom right?

Click reset button along your top console and then save team when you are happy with the changes.

Yesterday I revamped my entire team and forgot to hit it! Took me a while to remember all my signings

Rather than face off against other footytube user's dreamfooty squads, you are assembling a team you believe will perform well in their respective leagues this season. You get points if the players in your starting XI are played or subbed on, as well as + points for goals, assists, clean sheets etc. And - points for own goals, red/yellow cards etc.

How are points calculated?

Goalkeepers & Defenders:
Clean sheet 8pts.
Concede more than 1 goal in a game -1pt per goal.

Midfielders:
Clean sheet 3pts.
Goal assist 5pts.

Attackers:
Goal assist 5pts.

All:
Goal scored 5pts.
Hat trick bonus 5pts.
Yellow card -2pts.
Red card -4pts.
Playing full game 3pts
Coming on as sub 2pts

Thanks for the offer and enthusiasm, it is really appreciated and the footytube team know that Serie A is the league with the most bugs. Serie A will be tweaked and hopefully fixed in the near future, featuring all your favourite players.

As far as I'm aware, valuations are fixed for the meantime. They may fluctuate come the next transfer market (typically every 6 weeks) given there are a lot of players yet to make their mark in different leagues.

To give you an example, Yuri Zhirkov is currently cheap in dreamfooty, valued at 6.7 million although many are tipping him to make it big in the league. If he turns out to be a star player and racks up goals/assists from his wing play, then he would be a bargain at his current price.

Thanks

Oh and I forgot to mention what happens if a player gets injured

That's where the sub bench comes in to play. From your 'manage team' console on your dreamfooty page, you can sub off/on players in your starting XI.

Many users are spending all their ££/$$/€€ in their starting XI, but if a team member gets injured then they have no sub bench to rely on. You can always change your formation to accomodate injuries as well! Say you play 2 up front and one gets injured and you have no striker on the bench, then drop a player into midfield and sub on a midfielder.

All about risk assessment! I am playing it safe by keeping 3 players on the bench.

Your base rate + valuation limit is your cap. You wouldn't be able to exceed this if you tried.

I suppose it is best to buy players as close to your cap as possible, given they are players you believe will earn you points. I am 5 or 6 million under my cap because I believe my current squad will gather enough points without me having to splash a small amount on a mediocre player.

Thanks

Sorry, stumbled upon the answer to the first question. Still curious about the second, though

That would be your Fan Valuation which goes up to 50 mil if your a good footytube user

Yes but who will valutate me and decide if I should get my fan valutation points?

It was all in my link. It isn't valuated by a person.

How is it calculated?

Our system uses some special algorithms that are far too geeky and technical to go into much detail about. But, you can be sure that if you are making a positive contribution to the site, your fan valuation will increase.

It's a fantasy league, points are awarded when your players score / keep clean sheets etc. In REAL games.

Not really a dreamfooty question, but it works like facebook, go to a user profile, click add friend (below their profile pic). If they are interested they will accept your request and you will become friends. You can then chat to them live in the instant messenger panel at the bottom of the screen.

Rivals, has no acceptance procedure, you just click rival on a persons name and they are added to your rivals list (and vice versa).

You may have a lot more questions about how footytube community works.

There's a detailed FAQ Here

I'm on my first Dreamfooty week and was wondering if there is a set time for the points being awarded? I know there is a problem with some players but I haven't received any yet

Sometimes they get awarded midweek after a weekends games.... It all depends.... Safe to say if you are owed points, you will get them!

All my players are not geting points not just playes from the spanish league
