Are the out of contract players 'counted' in the average squad strength of the players for the new seasons Cup draw?
I'm cutting my squad right back and have 12 players left who are 4 or 5 star, the rest are 1*.
Out of these twelve 4 are out of contract and I will renew as usual at the start of next season, but will the Game ignore them until they are signed and only take into account the 8 'in-contract' players and 6 of the others?
I think they are counted, if they are among your fourteen best
That's a pity, was hoping for the first time ever that I might get a Cup draw where I was the team two levels above!!!Quote:

Interesting, I thought they didn't count because they are 'out' of squad. But how will you know? there are always teams levels better than me, no matter my teams level?
still making some tests but more possible is that the count.
I have a quick question. If a player is out of contract at the start of the season, can i still sell him within the 7 days or can i only release him? I have a fair few in this situation n just wondering if id be best selling them now as i wont be resigning most for next season. Cheers
no, you can do nothing with him until you releese him or sign a new contract:)Quote:

if you dont re-sign them at the start of next season, you lose out on the $$$ as you cannot sell them. A lot of people love to buy on the last day to get deals...sell them before you lose themQuote:

Cheers for the replies. Yeh sold sub keeper yesterday and tried to sell dmc (both never feature). Will wait until promotion is secured and champs league final today before selling off the rest)
Even though the players are not eligible to play it seems they are still eligible to influence where I am in the draw!!
I'm still in with teams up to 3 levels above me, and against average team levels which are around my top 14 only including the out of contact players.
Ah well....
Yeah I thought they would be counted, so that's no good for fooling the draw.
Top 14 players count for the cup draw whether they are signed or unsigned imo and by latest test.
