Rules

Everything you need to know before you build your Premier Manager 2026 squad.

Your squad

Pick exactly 11 players within a budget of £85.0M. Prices are generated automatically from each player's performance over the past three seasons and adjusted based on the Dynastree teams input.

Maximum 3 players from any single club.

Formations

Choose any of the supported shapes — every slot must be filled by its position:

4-4-24-3-33-5-23-4-35-3-25-4-14-5-1

Captain & vice-captain

Your captain scores double points. Your vice-captain earns a 25% bonus and steps in if the captain does not play.

Lock windows

The squad is editable in planning mode and locks at the gameweek deadline. It reopens once every fixture in that gameweek is settled.

Organisers can force the window open or closed for special rounds.

Mini leagues

Create a league and share the join code, or join with a friend's code. Every league has its own table alongside the overall leaderboard.
