Amount of eligible players to play

11 is the minimum number of eligible players you need to field in order to not forfeit a game in TE, but apparently you can get by with 7 guys in Serie C:

Real life FIFA LOTG state 7 players,1 of which must be a goalkeeper , is the minimum amount required to play the game. However tis is only a fantasy game and not bound by any FIFA LOTG.

Hey guys,

14 eligible players is the minimum required for a Top Eleven match.

Edit: Sorry for the confusion. 14 players are the minimum in a squad and 11 eligible players for a match.

Hey guys,

Not true... Played games with less than 14 players, due to suspension or injury of some players... Also, I had a league opponent, an abandoned team with 14 players, but only 10 of them set on the pitch and 4 subs... All games vs. that opponent were registered 3-0 and it didn't matter that the team had 14 eligible players... Also have seen teams with 13 players in the squad, playing matches...

Nope, 14 players are the minimum for playing a competition and 11 eligible players are for a match.

and that's why I suggested a new TE wiki with more info.
(if you want any help with questions, I 'm willing to help)

If 14,, basically you can't sell a player... thats why if the contracts of 1 year aren't renewed at the end of season and one have less than 14 players the game add retired ones to cover the min' of 14 players with contract.

Then of those 14 three can be injured or with suspension, stillyou will be able to play the upcoming match, not with 10 players but, then match is forfeited, lost 0-3 and counted as draw in the history stats.
