Tournament Mode - Play All 380 Premier League Games
 

Now the Premier League presentation package was downloaded I have started my annual Premier League season in tournament mode. I control all 20 teams in order to play every single game of the season with up to date current rosters. I play on World Class, 8 minute halves and use default sliders.

After Week 2 the table looks like this:

1)Everton 2-0-0 6 Pts
2)Arsenal 2-0-0 6 Pts
3)Man City 2-0-0 6 Pts
4)Middlesbrough 2-0-0 6 Pts
5)West Ham 1-1-0 4 Pts
6)Bournemouth 1-1-0 4 Pts
7)Liverpool 1-0-1 3 Pts
8)Man Utd 1-0-1 3 Pts
9)Hull 1-0-1 3 Pts
10)Tottenham 1-0-1 3 Pts
11)Swansea 1-0-1 3 Pts
12)Chelsea 1-0-1 3 Pts
13)Burnley 1-0-1 3 Pts
14)Watford 0-1-1 1 Pts
15)Crystal Palace 0-1-1 1 Pts
16)Southampton 0-1-1 1 Pts

I'm always excited for this! How do you decide who you play with? I feel like you mentioned it in last year's thread, sorry if I'm being repetitive.

I'll be checking back frequently!

I like to keep the table as competitive as possible. I don't like having a team completely running away with the title or teams falling adrift at the bottom. For example, say Man City are playing Arsenal and City are top of the table by 5 points, I will play as Arsenal to try to shorten the gap.

but what if they deserve?

i love the concept, but i'd put more objective and balanced rules for myself, like always playing with the home team, for example.

You could always play as the home side. That way, you play each matchup--using each team.

I loved this last year, what a cool idea. I'll be keeping tabs.

Re: Tournament Mode - Play All 380 Premier League Games
 

I find I'm giving each team a fair share of games with me controlling them. As I said earlier I try to keep the league table close. Last year I won the league with Liverpool by 1 point. The top 5 were only separated by 10 points and at the bottom 14th and 18th were separated by only 5.

I'm nearly done week 4 so I'll post the updated table soon.
