Got two midfielders injured in yesterdays league game, losing 1-0 to the only shot my opposition had. I decided not to un injure my mids, so with the only other two fit MC's today went into the league match. 4 mins in one of them gets injured. I switch to a 4-3-3 with just the one mid in the centre. 13 mins in, he gets sent off.
I then go 3 at the back, with one of players who can play DMC being used, taking my ST,AMC player down to play in the AMC so the midfield has a 4 in a diamond. I've now used two subs within the first 30 mins of the game. My star striker then misses a penalty just before half time, before my second striker gets injured on the stroke of half time.
Not wanting to be out of shape and feeling like I could do with more defensive cover I decide to swap him with a DR, moving my back line to a back 4 again with my DC DL going back into the DL spot. Oddly I manage to batter my opposition but fail to score. Then with 7 mins to go they make their only attack of the game, my defender takes one of their players out, gets a red, they get a pen and score to make it 1-0.
Really annoying. It just felt like it wouldn't matter what I did today I wasn't going to get the result.
Comfortably the best Quality team in the league, but sat in 7th even though I've done nothing tactically stupid or wrong and I am yet to have an opposition manager turn up. It almost feels like the game is trying to get me to heal players and use packs, or buy new players by making the ones I have got not perform.
Digging my heals in though. Will be interesting to see how I cope with tomorrows games with this current set up with my team. Expecting another trolling in the league.
