About Starting11

Starting11 is a free browser game about building the perfect XI, one lucky spin at a time. Each round the wheel hands you a random team and year — you draft exactly one player from that squad into an open position. Eleven rounds later, the game simulates your line-up's fate with a drum-roll reveal (and confetti, if you've earned it).

Two games in one

How it works

  1. Choose your game, your mode, and a formation.
  2. Hit SPIN — the reel slows, lands, and shows you the badge or flag you drew.
  3. Draft one player from that squad into a position they can actually play.
  4. Repeat until all 11 spots are filled — one free re-spin if a draw is hopeless.
  5. In Premier League mode, check your pre-season odds, then watch the season play out matchweek by matchweek. In World Cup mode, hold your breath through the reveal.
  6. Collect your record, your tier badge — and share the result card.

Modes

Classic shows every player's rating and stats while you draft. Expert hides everything but the names — no ratings, stats or positions, for those who remember exactly who played left-back for Stoke in 2016.

FAQ

Can a real team win all 38?
Never happened. Arsenal once went a league season unbeaten and Manchester City once hit 100 points — but nobody has won every game. In Starting11 it's possible, just brutally hard. Same for a perfect World Cup run.
Why can't I put a striker at centre-back?
Players only fit positions they genuinely play. Wing-backs cover full-back, wide midfielders cover the wings.
Where does the data come from?
Rosters are real squads, hand-compiled from the public record. Ratings are Starting11's own editorial judgement — argue with the wheel, not us. Badges, flags and player photos load from public sports databases, with jersey avatars as backup.
Are the 2026 World Cup squads real?
The 48 qualified nations are real; squad lists are our best projection ahead of the tournament and may differ from the final rosters.
Mixing eras is unfair, right?
Completely. Prime Ronaldinho next to a 2026 wonderkid is the whole point.
