Introducing FootballCoin
FootballCoin is a new and exciting platform in which you can register very easily and have a variety of options for building a team with Players in real life, playing games either on your own against other players, a private group of friends, and many other permutations tailored to your Management desires.
There are so many games to choose from, both free as well as paid competitive games and many prizes to be won. There is NO setup charge and NO subscription fees to pay.
You also have the option of challenging a friend or joining an existing, official or private, contest. I am very excited just writing about this new platform!
Build your team:
To build your fantasy team you will have to choose professional players, from the different leagues listed in the FootballCoin game. You can choose any of the players, without restrictions, so long as you maintain your team’s tactics (e.g. the 1-4-4-2 formation).
Use all your expertise to predict results and performances, in order to choose the best players. These players are chosen by obtaining their respective Player Cards and then make your own team to rule the division!

The points earned by the players will be based on their performances in their real games. The innovative scoring system algorithm takes into account more than 30 elements, including the players’ positions as well as a host of other variables.
This system determines a wide range of positive and negative sources for points. Positive such as Assists and Goals, and Negatives such as Yellow or Red Cards and Own Goals.
After you’ve chosen your contest you’ll need to pick your team’s line-up for that day or for the week’s matches. You will have to choose your tactics and formation (4-4-2 / 3-5-1/ 4-3-3, etc.)
Check players’ performance statistics to get a good understanding of what your players can do. Then pick the available players you want (from the free/value listed player cards owned) for your team’s roster:
Choose 11 players in accordance with your tactic, for each field position - Just as a real team has, the formation is up to you.
Choose your reserve bench – 1 Assistant Manager; 1GK; 1DF; 1MF; 1FW.
Image is shown as example only.
Be original, select players wisely, and remember that the “all-star team” isn’t always the best option. Based on their real performances, lower rated players may earn you as many or more points than the higher rated, star players, so bear this in mind.
Each fantasy teams earns points based on the performances of the selected players in the real football games. Positive events such as scoring a goal, contributing an assist or keeping a clean sheet will add points to the team. Negative events such as receiving a yellow/red card, conceding a goal or missing a penalty will make the team lose points.
You can even play with your friends free or for a very small wager just to have those bragging rights.
Many people may play FIFA and Pro Evolution these days, but for the hardcore football fan who thinks he knows the game, Management games are simply irresistible. You have already probably got a good knowledge of the current teams and players, and who you would get rid of at Real Madrid?
You probably already know who you want to replace him from another team in La Liga. What strategy are you going to use? Formation? Match tactics? The possibilities are almost endless when you start to use your intellect and plan accordingly.
FootballCoin aims to merge the best aspects of collectible trading card games with those of Fantasy Manager games. It is a strategy game that is based entirely on the skill of the participants.
How the game works:
Once you’ve built your team and chosen the contest to participate in, you will need to get your team organized by choosing the starting line-up. You will then employ a team formation. Apart from your starting 11 players, you will also have a reserve bench consisting of Assistant Manager, a Goalkeeper, a Defender, a Midfielder and a Forward.
Next, you can continue to monitor the player’s performance using the site’s data analysis. This will help you monitor player form and get an understanding of their abilities. The scoring system for the game employs an algorithm that takes into account more than 30 variables, such as position and statistics reflecting player’s ability.
FootballCoin provides managers the tools needed to make their team selections.
This will help them weigh on the pros and cons associated with each choice.
Each fantasy teams earns points based on the performances of the selected players in the real football games. Positive events such as scoring a goal, contributing an assist or keeping a clean sheet will add points to the team. Negative events such as receiving a yellow/red card, conceding a goal or missing a penalty will make the team lose points.
Scoring will be calculated by the individual score of the starting 11 players, 50% of the total number of points scored by each of the 4 reserve players and the points earned by the Assistant Manager (according to his rank). Build a team with efficient players, who will score high and make you win!
FootballCoin hosts a variety of free and paid contests taking place throughout the week. Each member has the opportunity to register for as many contests as they wish and by doing so increase their chances of winning prizes.
The platform is filled with features both in-game and out-of-game.
The In-game options are intuitive and show the user all the info the player would need. Features such as;
CONTEST – where you can look to see what contests are on offer
CREATE CONTEST – where you can create your own contest, setting your own parameters etc.
MY TEAMS – where you can see details of the teams you already have and how they are performing etc.
LIVE & STATS – where you can see your team’s stats and how they are doing in real time.
LEADERBOARD – to see how great your team is and how you are dominating the competition!
MARKET – This is where you have access to your XFC coins and where you can purchase items on the platform.
You can also sign up for the news feed where you can keep up to date with all the news, features and market information as well as Football News! You will have a complete platform with so many options that I simply cannot wait to play this.
As expected there will be many variables within the game that can influence not only your points rewarded by the real players, but also other things like player injuries, bans and suspensions – do you really want that defender who always gives away penalties and gets booked? Maybe that talented Midfielder that gets goals, but in all important league game may get a red card.
Again . . . All these things you need to take into consideration such as form, attitude, performance and injuries as well as how prone they are to all of the above factors.
There are a variety of leagues to play in including the English Premier League, La Liga and Serie A, and other top leagues are expected to come out in the near future.
Of course, you want to create that perfect team you probably already have in your head and dominate the league and win contests whether they are against a single player, a group of friends or online. Now think that you also have the possibility to get paid for all that thought and effort that has gone into your cast iron plan! Or simply play for free and just the Glory of winning.
I remember that Championship Manager 2002 was mainly about the performance on the field, although you could sign other players and discipline players that were not happy, but nothing on the level that FootballCoin and what their fantastic platform offers!
I mean, seriously the level of detail in this game is simply incredible IF you want to go down that deep, although this isn’t necessary but if you are a perfectionist like me, you will certainly have a little tinker about! Tim would have loved this when I was winning every time all those years ago 😉
Just make sure you are not sitting in a spit and sawdust pub in Tottenham having a pint and Alexis from Arsenal scores for your team and you jump out of your chair and shout ‘YES!!!!!’
You can then run home from the unfriendly Spurs supporters in the safety of your own home and sit down while keeping an eye on the latest scores and see how your team is fairing up.
Match of the Day just got a whole lot more exciting than it already is!
