Understanding role of Luck in top eleven

[nikolgiorgos]

My understanding to the game has evolved from August to December...

of course, that's natural

The result is based on mathematical equations that takes into consideration many minor and major known and unknown factors

like the article you posted , but it's not only how TE or another football game using equations or algorithms for the games results
It's the general picture we must have in mind.
Let's say, hidden factors about the general strategy of the game and the behavior to some type of managers.

Example :
More and more teams are abandoned and hanging around as garbage in the TE universe.
At the old times, good active teams when met them, had victories of 10-15-18 goals.
This has been reduced drastically before some months.
Those scores become victories with 7/8/9 -0 and lately I can see a little less, like a 5-0 or 6-0 as more common result .

Another example :
Mourinho's team was unbeaten, not only for me but most of the managers.
When there was a contest for games vs Mou, they reduced the hidden quality of his team.

Another example :
A fix result when we start playing.
When you create a new team (and I made a lot this year -lol), there is a starting friendly game "how to play".
In that game, no matter what crazy thing you do, the result is 3-1.
You can see that in front of you

so, there are more scenarios that just few equations .

This is the result of changes ( small/ big improvements call it whatever you like ) that has been done in the algorithm of the game in the last couple of years ...

ex: reduce number of injuries , reduce the probability of troll results comparing to 2013-14... in addition to what've you said above.

Do you ALSO feel that there's a connection between troll results and this
