Here's my level 2 squad:

You can see, I don't spend any T on them, struggling to buy in players, hence this formation. It's not ideal, I use the dmc because I don't have enough DC to make a solid 4 at the back. A youth Dc/Dmc has just arrived and I have no T to sign him :( But, it works. And just bu training daily I have them up to Q23, the highest in my league, I think. I created this team just for fun on the side, to see how far I could get without spending a cent.
