1. You don't know, nobody knows which player performs or underperforms during games if he isn't scoring
2. They try to "motivate" you to improve your team (buy tokens).
3. The more players you'll heal the more injuries you'll have, of course they are targeting your best player, you need him on the pitch.
4. You said it. Nordeus is here for the money.
5. Even more ridiculous is when the value of a 19 years old drops because he's "older" now
6. There's no routine in top11 and formations or tactics don't matter unless you use an "illegal" one. The only thing that matters is quality.
7. The only good thing about the academy is your free player. You can sell him to make some decent money.

The point is : if you want to be succesful at top11 you'll to invest lots of tokens. If you want to be succseful every season you'll have to invest lots of tokens every season. If the game engine likes you you'll win, if not, you can use The Vent Thread for all they care One more thing, don't complain, they don't care because you said it, they are here for the money.
