Earn GP and coins
GP comes from matches, events and campaigns, and buys many player packs. eFootball Coins are the premium currency, also given in small amounts through events and login rewards. Save coins for packs with players you really want.
Sign the right players
Build around your formation:
- Pick players whose playstyles suit the formation you use.
- Prioritise key positions like striker, central midfield and centre-back.
- Free event players and campaign rewards are often very usable.
- Don't spend everything on one pack; spread for a balanced squad.
Train with progression points
Leveling players gives progression points to spend on stats. Focus on stats that matter for each position — for example, finishing and speed for strikers, defending and physical stats for defenders. Training items and specific training can raise levels faster.
Formation and manager
Your manager's playstyle and formation shape how the team plays. Choose a manager whose style suits your players and practise with it until it feels natural.
Play events
Events reward players, GP and coins. Join them every week, and complete daily and weekly objectives.
