New position eligibility

Please note that we have added multi-band position eligibility to the following players:
- Gilberto Silva (CM), Arsenal - now eligible at CB
- Joey O’Brien (RM), Bolton - now eligible at RB

Also, as several readers have pointed out, added position eligibility across the two bands (goalkeepers/defenders and midfielders/forwards) has led to situations where several of the added categories were displaying incorrect data on some of our pages. This has now been fixed and all statistics now display correctly across the site.

Chi:

hello,

Aren't Danny Simpson and Phil Neville right backs?

Chi

PTG: Hello Chi. We've looked at this and yes, they will both become eligible at RB.

Chris Rhodes:

Gerard Pique has played at right back for United in both appearances. Could his position eligibility reflect this, please?

PTG: Yes, we will add RB eligibility for Pique.

Jamie Taylor:

Ian HARTE is a left back, how come he registered only as a centre back?

Jamie T:

Perhaps O'Shea as an all rounder???

Adam Campbell:

Hallo
Now that players have more than one position could you please show all the positions in the transfer/release tab?
Thanks

Greg:

In respect of the previous post concerning Phil Neville, I would add that he should also be considered for eligibility at left back given that he has played there both for club and country, perhaps more commonly than he does at right back.

I also wondered what the position was concerning Aaron Hughes, who is only eligible at centre back when he is primary a right back. Could this be altered?

Many thanks

PTG: Thanks for your post, Greg. We have changed Neville but Hughes has only played at CB this season.

Jack Thompson:

could Pil Neville please be regestered as RB and LB as he has filledin for everton several times at this postions.

PTG: Yes, we'll do this, Jack.

Paul Fawcett:

What about Jamie Carragher at centre back? It seems strange he cant play there?

PTG: We will make Carragher eligible at CB.

Andy McDougall:

Hi,

Hermann Hreidarsson his nationality should be Iceland not Ireland.

Cheers

PTG: Good spot, thanks, this will be amended.

Simon Healey:

Liam Rosenior has been used as an utility player in midfield this year - I think RM. Could PTG investigate his playing position this year and ad new position eligibility, please?

PTG: We have added this position to Rosenior.

Jon Bev:

Why no Elano for Man City?

PTG: He is in the game under Blumer, his proper name.

Kevin O:

Some of the teams in my random league don't seem to be taking an interest in the game, however they have got the best players. Do I just give up?

Uche:

Geremi is a recognised RB and plays CM for Newcastle now. Could this be amended please?

PTG: Hi Uche, yes, we'll amend Geremi so he's also a CM.

Iain Steele:

Can belletti play at left back? i was under the impression he can play anywhere across the back-line, but he is only listed as a RB and CB

PTG: That may be true, Iain, but he has not played at LB for Chelsea, so we won't change his status until he does.

Chris Rhodes:

Hi
I have just added Lucas Leiva to my squad. He is listed as a CM, although appeared to play on the RM for Liverpool during the game.
Perhaps RM could be added for Leiva?

PTG: We will watch this and judge based on future appearances.
