Good job!
Can you also put in De Laet? Man utd defender, can play all three positions normally but even if not allocated, i'd still like to have him in my team
PTG - De Laet will be added when he makes an appearance in the Premier League.

How about Kalinic at Blackburn?
PTG - It is still not 100% confirmed that Kalinic has signed for Blackburn, some clearance documentation is still required before Blackburn will be allowed to play Kalinic in a match and he wont be added to PTG until confirmation is received.

De Laet played vs Hull on the last day of last season don't that count?
PTG - The original PTG player list for 2009/10 is built based on Premier League footballers we believe will play an active role in the season to keep the list at a manageable size. After the initial list is published, players are added in one of two ways, either because they have signed to a Premier League club and are likely to play for their new club or when they make an appearance in the Premier League, so De Laet will fall into the latter category.

Could you tell us what time on Monday these players were added to the system?
PTG - These players were actually added to the system in the early hours of Tuesday morning so will come off notice at around 6am on Wednesday 20th August. We have included the addition time for players added today and will continue to do so.

I saw in another post that once a player has played a position for a match that PTG will update the position onto the players profile.
Jason Koumas started the last league game up front. Can PTG be updated with this?
PTG - Any queries regarding player eligibility should be sent to ptg_eligibility@stats.com or by selecting the appropriate option in the dropdown on the 'contact us' form under the 'Home' tab. This way requests can be dealt with by the appropriate people.
