Like falling into a Cup with low quality

[gogs67]

Yes you are right.

I did this before by selling top 14 and made my top 14 as bad as possible, then in the next season my cup was super easy.

But the paid off is that I spent a lot of tokens to rebuild a new team because I still wanted league and CL titles.

I remember that was the first time I did this and in the next season I won the cup and CL but due to a super important game in which I got 3 injuries, I made a draw which made me the second in the league, so almost a treble.

But I really would not recommend doing this, because this costs a lot of tokens to rebuild, unless people don't want league or CL titles...

You don't have to sell all your players.
Keep your best 6 or 7 and always have around 5 one * academy players who you have had for a long time. That way they bring your average way down compared to buying 3* players at the end of the season.
I play this way every season and it's easy to keep within the 35T budget.
Here's a screenshot of my end of season team from a couple of seasons ago, one of the 1* players has been with me for 11 seasons so is 55Q less than a 3* player.
It takes planning long term, but it works for me.
