Team Profiling “ Yet another season of competitive pro-football is about to begin! You are the manager of one of the best teams in the world - Manchester United. The schedule is out, you know whom your playing and when.

Your opponents are also on a winning streak of 5 matches and you get insider information that one of their main strikers is having problems with the coach and may not play a major role in the game. With the forecast indicating snow showers, you expect a rough game ahead…”

Game Strategy “ You are playing your arch rivals -Chelsea- for the Championship tonight! The game is about to start in an hour and you are analyzing the weather, playing conditions, opponents. You have decided to start with a 4-4-2 formation, knowing that you will revert to a 4-3-3 if no goal is scored in the first 20 minutes. You are also aware of Ronaldo’s knee injury and have decided to start with him on the bench…”
