How it works

Four steps, under a minute

From template to downloadable graphic — no design skills needed.

  1. 1

    Choose a formation

    Start with 4-3-3, 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1, 3-5-2, or any of the presets. Switch formation anytime — players reposition automatically.

  2. 2

    Add your XI

    Type player names and numbers. Mark the captain, set positions, and include subs — the generator handles the rest.

  3. 3

    Match your style

    Swap kit colors, pitch background, and typography. Keep it clean or push it toward your content brand.

  4. 4

    Export the graphic

    Download a high-resolution PNG ready for social. The generator handles sizing for feed, stories, and thumbnails.
