    People tend to notice injustices against themselves far more than they notice something going their way, hence there are far more posts on here about 'bad' things happening than 'good'.
    Great example was one game my keeper got injured after 7 minutes and I decided not to replace him to see what would happen.
    I won the game 2-1 despite playing with 10 men and no goalkeeper for 83 minutes against a team of roughly the same quality as me.
    I found it quite funny as it showed up the randomness of the game engine, but if I'd been the opposition manager I think i'd have stopped playing the game for ever right there!!

    I think more people tend to show sympathy and empathy to those who suffered. So there are more replies on related posts. In contrast, less people like to cheer for those gained benefits.

    As I remember, there were many discussions in the past about cases of GK injured out without replacements and so I have already known how to use this.

    My point was that, as plenty of psychological studies have shown, we are wired to respond to negative situations and emotions with a far greater urgency and degree than to positive ones.
    Taking it down to the level of this game you see far more 'angry' initial posts about something that has happened than you do initial 'happy' posts, as the negative outcome has more of an impact on the average player than a positive outcome has.

    Generally I agree with you.

    Subject matters of complaints has 2 sides. Those gained benefits has less tendency to write in this forum.

    I agree with this, two season's ago I lost my champs final to a much weaker team and was fuming about it even though I had won the league already by a great distance going unbeaten all season, but all I could think about was the defeat in the final, negatives always come first.

    About the early manager level, i've noticed that 95% of my matches the opponent's managers didnt show up to watch live, they dont pay much attention to this game, or they just quit. So the league tittle is always too easy when 12/13 of your competitors are inactive. The same thing happens in Champion league, you're just unlucky to lose to weaker team
