In great T11 logic and trolling, I power trained my team all yesterday and made myself a super strong side.
I played my opponent in the Cup yesterday prior to Power Training and beat him 3-0 away.
Just played the home game, with my much stronger side - and lost 2-1. Brilliant stuff.
Thankfully still through to the next round but it does go to show how bloody stupid this game is at times.

Day 2 - Palace Casuals report - plus!
Palace Terriers made another trip to the transfer market and signed a replacement for Mehmet Can Kilickaya sold this morning - the TM is very quiet on Level 9 (lots of players but no takers), so another 1T ($9.12M) purchase at a considerable discount from market value.
Palace Casuals signed a replacement for recently retired Mirco Kaminski, and at the same time filled a hole in their positional line-up. A bit more activity in the Level 28 market, so 4T/$107M was shelled out on this player.
The new left-back was immediately installed in the team for the Cup Preliminary Round 2nd Leg match and Palace Casuals had the unaccustomed luxury of a comfortable aggregate victory in a Cup tie. DMC Kiril Rusev opened the scoring and five minutes of dominance later on in the first half produced two more goals, an individual effort by striker Massimiliano Gerini and a more conventional pass/header from the two wingers, Andy Bayunu claiming the goal, Martin Kozak the assist. The home side got back into the match with their own five minutes early in the second half, but after the second goal, Casuals made a midfield substitution and shut up shop at the back to prevent any further encroachment. Final score 3-2 to the visitors, Palace Casuals progress 6-3 on aggregate.
With his substitute appearance at this match, central midfielder Felipe de Vasconcelos Leite registered his 50th time in a blue and red shirt.

Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...
Atlético Kolkata Day 2 Report
Just perfect. Marvellous. I couldn't attend it, and so ecstatic seeing my new tactics are working. I feel like I'm Victor Frankenstein:
In fact, I'm even happier that all my 5 MCs are performing. Baert is the only one who started in both matches. Today MOM was first-time starter Bartels. Bartels and Aksu were the free agents who arrived at the start of the season. Thank you Nordeus for chucking up something good! But I need cover for JBS (John-Bircan-Saba), they're my only AML-AMR-ST combination. If one gets suspended, maybe then I can think since money is in the negative. Also I need is a DC/DR. But even then, there's no bound for our joy. And you hear, sorry, read it right — we'll face a 1* team, yes, a 1* team in CL:
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.

What have I learned from last season? Never give up. I was ready to tank when I was 8th after 20 games or so. Somehow I managed to get to second place by winning the last game against the champion with big numbers, lol.
So I started the seasons with a couple of wins in the cup with both teams. Nice nice. Got some good new players. Boosted several players to 6 stars and I now see what I am facing in the CL. This guy is 1,5 stars higher in quality. Lol. First time that I am up against a 7-8 star player full of SA. I guess no CL title for me this season haha.
