i'm level 20 (I would be level 28 but dropped down to a new club) and in my experience the best team in the league WILL win the league if managed properly. Cup competions are different as one troll result and its probably game over. but in a 26 game season the cream generally rises to the top. im sorry, but if you couldn't win the league with 11 scout players you seriously need to look at tactics and team instruction....
