Just a normal day... looks like his 'keeper played a blinder. Man up and concentrate on the next match...

I'm in this season for the win til the end.. Unless the game screws me yet again

LoL, try to understand, even you have stronger team not mean you can win every match, this also happen at real, like Chelsea or MU.

Just because you keep repeating the same sentence to every post I make doesn't mean I don't understand it.

I tied the second place team and held on to the 2-point league. I lost the away cup match 0:1 in the middle of the night with the opposing manager enjoying a 15% possession boost, and got knocked out of the cup. Overall I am winless in 5. I am playing the last place team tomorrow. If I don't win, I will seriously think Nordeus has an algorithm for "shaking things up" and knocking the high performing managers around. I was just watching "Catching Fire", the second "Hunger Games" movie, last night. Remember how the gamemakers decided to "shake things up a bit" when the good guys were just about to win? I feel like I am in that movie. I expect a river of blood and murderous monkeys any time now.

So, today was an important day in my season. QF in cup, 0-0 the away match against a better quality team, but globally didn't play better than me. Then I had a direct confrontation against my runner up, only 2 points difference.
I lose 3-0 in the league, actually an UGLY game from my team who still wasn't defeated this season! My players didn't do ANYTHING at all, conceded a penalty kick after 4 minutes, then not a single shot for whatever reason. Now I'm in second place with 1 point difference, the league is not lost but there's not many opportunities to recover, the other teams aren't that good.

Now, I could have easily made 1 or 2 goals in the cup, but no, I dominate the game, but then again, for NO REASON, I concede a goal, and he's away, so I have to score 2. I tied, but then again, a lot of fouls and yellow cards, lots of penalty kicks that my specialist completely misses.
And now I'm out.

Way to waste a season! The cup was my main objective.

Hmmm! I feel bad for you. Seems you have been trolled big time...

[Ian McAdam]

It does seem to happen, big game and with 5 minutes you are either a goal down, key player is injured or red carded and despite everything you do the ball will not enter the net.

A bit like football sometimes really...

@ Tyltyl
from my experience, when you're playing vs a lv above team, although the quality looks the same, he has more efficiency in the game (and it's the opposite for you).

well, watching your games helps a lot.
It's worthy to spend 2T for changing the hour of your game to do that (ok, I suppose that you were playing away).
By the way, I read the books. Great !
The movie not so

Wow, I got a challenging champions league draw.

The draw consists of 29 league champions and 3 teams that finished 4th last season. The league champions are all the same level as me, the other three teams are all a level above me, one of them is defending a champions league title and all have 5* average quality for the entire roster. Safe to say they'll be 6/7* players by seasons end.

While welcoming a challenge is an exciting and exhilarating prospect, i'm don't think buying tokens is wise this season, since it'll only encourage Nordeus to make Champions Leagues like this more often.
