Where am I going wrong?

So what your basically saying is that it doesn't matter what your team/player stats are or how well you've been doing in past games? so player stats = nothing?
All I know is that all the teams I've played against that has the better stats compared to me, like me against this guy i get beat everytime. My players who usually get a game rating of 8+ all the sudden play rubbish against a rubbish team. I played this exact team formation the other day but only his team rating was the same as mine and i win by 5 goals lol.........This game confuses me to the max lol
