P.S. Too bad poll questions can't be corrected (makes sense). Sorry about the typos.

I usually keep the same side until a player has a couple of bad games
Well, all those reasons have logic, so I didn't vote for "investment" and "sentimental" because i did it very few times.

I chose all except other and sentimental. When I'm in all 3 competitions I ditch the lowb players and have 22 functional players that I pare down as I get KOed from competitions. Most dedicated players on here don't rotate that much. I rarely play a player more than 30 games a season. I've had 12 injuries over the last 2 seasons and 5 days and like not having to burn red packs. This season is different as I've spent a lot on young players and would be wasting my time if I wasn't feeding the highest value players greens.
Here's a stat sheet from a league winning season of the past.

I use this bench to sit with 7 other players:
I have a poor bench this season, so I'm reluctant to sub. But I still do once every match.
AH AH — manager of Atlético Kolkata. Named in honour of my hometown club, Atlético de Kolkata, which won the inaugural edition of Indian Super League in 2014.
A good defence is the best offense.
I am missing:
1) To change formations
2) As a replacement for red cards
FC Knudde:

League won: 33
CL won: 10
Cup won: 4
FC Killroy:
Seasons: 32
League won: 20
CL won: 6
Superleague: 3

My bench is a member of the Hall of Fame, but he's retired now.
"As a replacement for red cards" is an obvious use. I did not list it because you don't have a choice -- unlike with an injured player whom you can choose to heal or replace.
"To change formations" is a good one! I bought an AMC who is only called upon once every 8-9 matches when I have to get away from my favorite 4-5-1V and 4-1-4-1 formations. Fortunately he also has ST or he would be very bored. By the way, wrong thread, but I have to say it. I had gone 5 competition matches without ST scoring. I put my 4* AMC/ST bench warmer in today and he scores in a 3-1 CL win. I had to go back six matches to a 5:0 first round cup blowout to see a ST score previously... and it's the same guy. I have a feeling he might get another start soon.
yeah my last 3 opponents have all been running central passing defensive formations so my best amc has had to sit...
