Personally, in my opinion it feels like they changed the stats code, I have had more troll results in the last season, than all my troll results off the previous 10 season combined. Ref dishes out yellow cards, like he's giving kids candy on halloween.
Stats don't seem to say much, nor quality these days. 65%+ ball possesion and still lose miserably. losing from teams with more than 8 quality difference.....
Its more like rollin' a dice now......it can go either way, anything goes.
In all fairness, though, since the update I have also put in a lot less effort....Maintained my team, just no more power training or buying tons of new players.

Still though, the ammount of wack stuff happening, only enforces the thought that the game has gone downhill.
