it has to do with the server. till now i have never faced a team in higher level than me and as a result i have won the cup every time. of course i have other disadvantages like i can't find good players at transfer market and there is always token war for them, old scouts etc. I also play my wife's account and she is in a different server and the team is facing higher level players. but the transfer market is always full of young 5star players.
