    I don't see a problem with someone playing without Champions league in their first real season, the demands and rythm of the game can take a while to get used to. League one is pointless. There are literally years to play to get to the top, why waste a month playing in a sham-league ?

    Just won the Cup final in extra time btw, yay me haha. I actually shouted out loud when my first goal went in , a little embarassing haha.

    Congrats on winning the cup.

    I don't think they're is one correct/best way to play this game. Some want to reach the top level, others want to chase trophies. There are pros and cons to both approaches. For example, tanking is good for free/low-budget players, players that don't want to play the game year round. But if one is a highly competitive player, that plays year-round, it can make some seasons a tad boring.

    Yeah, I agree there are different ways to play the game. There are lots that play their players all out of position though, to fail, and I feel that it distorts the game for the active players. I guess I can't get my head around setting your team up to lose - but I guess that's why I spend a decent amount of time trying to find out what tactics do, and setting up my team win.
