I had a same drop in quality 2 seasons ago. All my midfield/wingers/strikers dropped suddenly in performance. I had a solid lead in the competition and lost about 7 matches out of 10. In the end I ended 7th in my competition. Never seen that happen. I am talking about players who scored 7-8-9's all the time drop to 4-5-6 ratings. I tried extra training, extra bonusses, top morale, switching players, nothing worked. Last game of the season I said, to hell with it. I was playing against the number 1 of the competition, put in all my replacements so my quality dropped at least 10 start and lost the game with only 2-0 or something. All my replacements however scored bad anyway.

I think it is a fluke. Just happens once in a while. Maybe just bad luck to get 7 players out of form. To answer your questions Tactician:
1) Bought tokens once in season 3 or something. I am now level 14. Never filled in a survey.
2) Token level that season was about 80.
3) I Always upgraded my whole stadium. Just the last 2 seasons I have been upgrading seats.

Last 3 seasons I have done pretty well. First in the competition twice and 1 time second. Winning CL and 3rd place.

What period of the season did the apparent drop in performance appeared?

If it is the last third or quarter of the season, then there is one thing in common. That is, a team does well and climbs to the top and stays there, but in the third week, the team, despite playing with almost the same players and formations, has a visible drop in performance.

I also went from being 10 points clear in my league to losing 6 in a row with no explanation, even against lesser teams. In the end i took drastic action and sold my goalkeeper (too many goals conceeded, could be knocking on to the confidence of defenders) and bought one from the list with one on one skill. I also ditched 4-5-1V formation as that has stopped being so effective. There's another thread about 451v now not working against 4-4-2 which makes me think there's been a change in the programming code.

Previously 451 formation had worked for me then i noticed it was seemingly leaving me very open to counter attacks (even though majority of time i only selected own half pressing. So i switched it up. Now won 4 in 5 but 3rd in my league and two very tight games. If i'm lucky i'll end up 2nd but my team went from winning or drawing to losing 6-0 to a team one below me, 3-0 to unmanaged sides and it was really frustrating. Would suggest some big changes to get season back on course.

During which part of the season did your team had so many bad performances? Is it in this period: 3rd week up to mid 4th week ?
