If my defenders were not in form, I'll like to remind you Atlético Kolkata has conceded only 1 goal in 4 Cup home games and none in 3 CL home games. Overall goals conceded are 3 in 6 and 4 in 7 for Cup and CL respectively. I'm yet to play today's Cup game.

And tanking in league was my target since Day 1.
Yes I realize that, but getting shelled like that definitely has an effect on performance and morale. I've had seasons where one bad cup loss caused a downswing for 5 games without a win.
You need to tank with more subtlety to avoid huge morale loss and form decrease.
