This game sounds epic.

Be amazing to see which legends will be at clubs like West Ham (Cole, Ferdinand, Lamps), Leeds United (Tony Yeboah?) Napoli (Maradona?) Its seriously interesting. Even Southampton will have Le Tissier and even Bale?

I’m looking at which teams have no or few legends, and where possible replacing them with a team who does. Niort for example aren’t in the latest test, they’ve been replaced by Strasbourg who have ex players like Jose Chilavert and Morgan Schneiderlin. Crusaders have been replaced by Shamrock Rovers who were graced by Johnny Giles are Jim Beglin. Other teams who have come in are Sparta and Slavia Prague, Dinamo Zagreb, Cannes and Red Star Belgrade who have a wealth of legendary ex players.

The aim is to make the weakest team as strong as possible.

That’s not to say managers can’t request teams like Niort and Crusaders if they want the challenge of starting without notable legends, but their own lesser known legends won’t be artificially boosted to the level of Pele and the like.

I can’t guarantee four legends per team, but I’ll do my best to include as many as possible, and some will have many more than that. It’s very much a case of the more legends that go in, the better it will work. The more current players can be filtered down to other teams they used to play for. The biggest teams will almost entirely have legends or players who have just played for the club.

An example of Liverpool’s possible starting 11 from the test run could look like:

Bruce Grobeblaar

Phil Neal
Jon Flanagan
Jamie Carragher
Mark Lawrenson

Steven Gerrard
Ronnie Whelan
Steve Heighway
Philippe Coutinho

Roger Hunt
Robbie Fowler

At the moment it’s touch and go whether Philippe Coutinho plays for Liverpool or Inter as their squad values are close.

There will of course still be a gap that money and points will help to bridge. Smaller teams legends will also be slightly younger.

It is frowned upon but not outlawed, I understand some managers do this as part of deals sometimes. In HFGs however, managers have been thrown out before as the were clearly using a second team to benefit their primary one.

One quick question, say that was the Liverpool legends would the players of today who are at Liverpool also be in the squad? For example Henderson, Can, Matip who are not currently considered legends?

The stated idea is that players appear at the side that they will most benefit. Therefore Henderson would more likely be at Sunderland.
I'd say that for the sake of realism, Liverpool are more likely to get Paul and Barry Chuckle.

Zidane at Bordeaux? The romanian teams could be tasty with the likes of Hagi etc....

I really don't know how to go with this? Are the bigger teams I.e Barca, Man City etc still going to be better or the like of Bucharest be just as good?

Teams will be allocated by private auction,

i understand why this is done but just wondered if im the only person that has an issue say i wanted southampton i might find myself bidding £200 to get the team ,when in fact the only other person that went for them bid £60 which means at a time when money is tight and most players already play 2-3 games on top i could have saved myself £130 still got the team and took the mrs out for a slap up meal to butter her up for paying out the money in the first place.
point is ue dont have to say how much has been bid but is it not possible to work it that if a bid is beaten ue send email stating this and asking us to rebid.

Setting up the legends game is taking a lot of work. I don't have the time or inclination to manually email a manager every time they are outbid, or to set up a system to do it automatically.

Thanks Mark, i just wasn't sure if Ben meant that all sides of today will keep there non legend players. If that makes sense?

I think what was said was the likes of Ajax, Bucharest, Marseille will be nearly as good as the top sides of today.

I can't remember seeing UE confirming this. If it's true I'm in big for a side like this but don't want to throw on 3 season tickets or something like that for another average side

Bids will remain private.



Some teams that are normally a way off the biggest clubs, like Ajax, will indeed be up there with most valuable teams in the game, largely thanks to Van Basten and Rijkaard.

The top legends to start with a 10* statistic which best represents their true talent. No other players to be able to acquire a star in the duration of the game.

Can anyone clarify that the aim to have all manageable teams start at the same sqaud value ?

So say Barcelona overall value is to be £250 mil. Will dundee united squad value be at say £200 mil and have £50 mil to spend ?

Yes, but some teams will have points instead of cash.

For example, if Barcelona's squad value is £400M and Dundee Utd's is £200M. If Barcelona start £25M in debt, Dundee Utd would probably have £75M and 50 UE points (the equivalent of £100M).

I like this, i do think points have to be in the game. However i think cash will play more of a part than ever before.
