To answer the question in the thread subject: I thought I was.
As for the rest:
What have you learned from last season? A lot of things I thought I learned are just theories. Either my own, formed through misinterpreting or selectively adhering to advice, or someone else's.
One thing I learned for sure is that there is a hidden cold streak feature that almost everyone experiences, many frustrate over, and few understand. And I learned to take it easy.
Where did you place last season? First in the league, thank you very much. Cup and CL I prefer to forget.
What's your current level? 8
What's your budget for this season? I still don't understand the question, sorry.
Who do you want to replace? MCs, GKs, STs, DCs, DL, DR. Ask me who I want to keep. My mid 5* DC/DMC with FK named Sergio Busquets (I named him), my low 5* MR/AMR and ML/AML.
What are your goals for this season? Figure out how I can retain more players season over season. Train my star ST as an AMC. Figure out how the game works. Figure out counter formations and orders. Win league.
