Using MATCH to link different sheets as one

[Steviefiege]

Hi, i'm new to this forum so i hope i've posted this in the right section.
What i'm doing is making a spreadsheet for my Football Manager game. I've got everything i need in, i just need to get a formula right to make my "Match Squad" work properly. Each position i've done with all the correct players but when you go to the match squad it puts the same players in different positions as they are the best player for that position, but what i want it to do is once the player is playing his in highest rated position for the spreadsheet not to pick him again so to pick the next one available. Some players though can play in multiple positions.

Goalkeeper:		Ross Etheridge	49.23%
Ball Playing Defender:		Mathieu Baudry	62.35%
		Andy Butler	60.88%
Complete Wing Back (Right):		Frazer Richardson	58.81%
Complete Wing Back (Left):		Tommy Rowe	61.67%
Deep Lying Playmaker:		Paul Keegan	62.22%
Advanced Playmaker:		Paul Keegan	65.00%
		James Coppinger	63.89%
Winger (Right):		James Coppinger	65.45%
Inside Forward (Left):		James Coppinger	59.29%
Complete Forward:		John Marquis	54.32%

As you can see, my midfield consists of 2 players playing in all the positions, but i only want them playing in their highest rated position.
I really help someone can help me. I tried attaching the spreadsheet but it won't allow me, is that because i'm new?

Kind Regards
Steve

Hi Steve,

Not sure if you can use this but, you could use the following to find/match the best position to the player list based on your player data.

Note that some positions are missing as there is no other higher rated players in the data set;
