So I just finished the last 16 of the CL....and of course I went out on away goals to a weaker team....So just out of interest I went through the other 7 gemmes in the last 16 and including my gemme, only ONE team with went through that had better stats than the other team....So out of the 8 games....7 weaker teams went through....interesting!!
Now you cant say anything about good managers, because the game engine is so stupid and random that there is no such thing as good managing....I did what I could in this particular gemme, better one on one players, played a 4-4-2, which was fine, he played a 3w-1-4-2....he scored 2 goals inside the first 7 mins!!
After that it was all me, I dominated, winning 3-2....hard attacking for the last 15 mins didnt help....all stats at the end favoured me considerably, my players stats were 7,8 and 9's....but alas the weaker team won through....same scenario in the first game, which of course he won 1-0....
Ah well ah'll have to be just content with winning the league again....which is what i concentrate on anyway....
