The default League menu focuses on the league table, enabling you to assess your team's record in the competition and review the statistics for all sides for the season so far.

League Competition By clicking the 'View' drop-down menu you will discover options to modify the information presented in the table. Selecting 'Home Record' will disregard away matches and sort the teams into a league table based only on games played at home. Likewise, the 'Away Record' option sorts the table according to performances in matches played away from home.

You might expect teams to play better in front of their home fans, but beyond that you should also be able to analyse the Home/Away table to identify patterns that could be helpful when it comes to selecting Tactics. If you are shipping goals away from home you may want to adopt a special, defensive away selection, for instance.

The 'Combined' view is essentially a more detailed cumulative league table view, showing a breakdown of home and away stats, but sorted according to overall performance.

Referee Stats
This is a straightforward breakdown of the cards and penalties awarded by referees, along with their rating out of 10. Match it against the details of the official in charge of your next game to judge the mentality of the man in the middle.

A thorough manager would ensure that their more aggressive players are checked a little if the referee for the next match is intolerant of foul behaviour and eager to produce cards which can add up to disciplinary points.

Use the player instructions menu on your tactics option to adjust the approach of your players after checking the record of your official.
