Everything below describes a system that actually exists in the game, written the way you'd want it explained by someone who already knows it. It won't tell you which tactic to run or which stat to chase, that part's still yours to work out. New to Goal Legends? How to Play is the short version. This is the long one.
Every stat on a player card, and what it actually represents.
The six formations, natural positions, and how a matchday squad is built.
The six tactical dials the match engine reads before every kickoff.
Planned substitutions and staging a one-off lineup for a single fixture.
Recovery dates, fitness decay, and how club bans and national team bans stay separate.
Squad numbers, your crest, kit pattern, and renaming your club.
