How the team gets picked:
*Players will only be eligable for the position they played in at the start of that match, or in that respective category according to the next point.
*DR/WBR, DL/WBL, DMC/MC/AMC, MR/AMR, ML/AML are 4 categories which in the teams will be noted as DR, DL, MC, MR, ML instead of the specific position.
*When a side position (DR+DL, and MR+ML) is used the same position will also be used on the other side
*The formation gets decided (within restrictions) by the players with the highest score, this mean that a DR+DL combination who have 7.8 and 7.2 rating will be picked above a DC+MC combination who have 7.7 and 7.6 despite these last 2 having the higher average
*When 2 players for the same position have the same score, I will first look at the cards (no card>yellow>red), following that to the game time (higher is better), following that the score of the game (Win>Draw>Loss and afterwards Goal Difference). If these are all equal the player who comes from the team with the lowest amount of players in this TOTM will get the spot.
*When 2 players who both have the same score that are deciding the formation (DR with 7.8 and MC with 7.8) I will first look at the other player who would get in the TOTM (for example DL with 7.2 and DC with 7.6), and choose the higher 2nd player. If this is still equal I will go back to the previous rule starting with the main player (The DR and MC), and following it up with the 2nd player (The DL and DC).
*The TOTM will have at least 1 and at most 1 Goalkeeper (GK)
*The TOTM will have at least 3 and at most 5 defenders (DC, DR, DL)
