How to Play Guess the Footballer
Guess the Footballer is a mystery player game where every guess teaches you something about the hidden footballer. You type a real player name, then the feedback grid compares that player with the answer across nationality, league, club, position, career era and active-or-legend status. Green cells mean the attribute matches, while the era arrow tells you whether to move earlier or later in football history.

Guess the Footballer rules
Each round has one hidden footballer and six guesses. A guess must be an exact player from the suggestions so the game can compare the right career data. The answer can be entered as the full name or surname, and a correct guess ends the round. Your score is higher when you solve the player in fewer attempts, then the run moves through five mystery footballers.
How to play Guess the Footballer step by step
Start by typing a well-known footballer whose club, league, nation and position give you a broad first comparison. Read the green cells first: a green nationality, league, team, position, era or status means that clue is locked in. Use non-green cells to move away from the wrong profile; if only the position matches, switch club, league and nation on your next guess. Follow the era arrow to decide whether the hidden footballer began earlier or later than your guess. Keep narrowing the player pool until the full name or surname of the mystery footballer solves the round.
Tips and strategy
Open with a versatile modern star from a major league so you test several common attributes at once. A green league but wrong team usually means you should stay inside that league and rotate through different clubs. A green nation is powerful: combine it with position and league to narrow toward a short list fast. Use the status clue carefully — ACT means the hidden player is still active, while LEG points you toward retired or historical names. Do not chase only famous names; the best second guess is the one that uses the feedback, even if it is less obvious.

What is Guess the Footballer?
It is a mystery footballer guessing game. You type player names and use attribute feedback — club, league, nationality, position, era and status — to identify the hidden footballer.
How many guesses do I get?
You get six guesses per round. A run contains five mystery footballers, and solving a round in fewer guesses gives you a better score.
What do green cells mean?
A green cell means your guessed player matches the hidden footballer for that attribute. For example, a green LGE cell means both players are linked to the same league, and a green POS cell means they share the same broad position group.
What does the era arrow mean?
The era arrow tells you whether the hidden footballer started their senior career earlier or later than the player you guessed. Use it to move from modern players toward older legends, or the other way around.
