Is this cheating???

Hi everyone,

Although I'm not a new manager, I consider myself a novice in many aspects. I wanted to ask this prestigious community a question: Does this manager cheat? I would not have an issue with the fact that he has the financial resources to buy all these stars, but what strikes me is the fact that he has all the bad ones to compensate for an unreal low star average. Is this by design? Of course he is crushing the competition and is in first place with a 15 point advantage over the 2nd place team. Thanks for reading!

If he started the season with that team he would be in a Cup draw with most other teams up to 3 levels higher than him and he would also be in a very difficult league draw.
I'd guess his team looked nothing like that on the first day. He would only have 6 high Q players to go with his 8 low Q.
If you check his player stats you will see how many games each player has played and can work out all the guys who were brought in in the first few days.
He almost definitely spends money on the game as well.
