My team is coming second in our league after a bad start but training improvements I made got us on the right track and we had the best record in the league over the last five games. We had a healthy goal difference, second in the league and were going nicely. We have beaten the league leaders and 3 out 4 of the top teams. OK
Tonight we played the second to bottom team who have a very minus goal diff and have lost most of their games, including the one against us two weeks ago. But not tonight. Tonight they were invincible, my DMR who is 3rd or fourth in the league for ratings got injured off. My second to top in league scorer AMC suddenly had 2 backwards facing feet. My faultless MC got a yellow card. I switched to hard attacking, hard tackling clicked on attacking bonus and high pressing for about the last 30 minutes. Nothing.
I understand the allure of underdogs but these people were only 2% underdogs suddenly played like Barcelona while my team played like circus people. This is stupid. I like playing Top11, it is my hobby and I buy tokens now and again when things get tight. But this really has got me angry. FFS just let the teams play to their abilities and let our coaching skills stuff things up, I can do that quite well and have done some very stupid things.
The thing is I knew this was coming because of results that happened to other top teams so I was prepared for it. Training was superb and morale was good all "Very Good" and above. It was one of Top Eleven's surprise days which they throw in to keep it "interesting". Not interesting, actually. Hugely unnecessary. Please stop this crap.
