    ok, lets assume that it can be 3 games on some days, not counting associations. it means that on a previous day you had just 1 game, and you will have 1 game early in the current day and 1 late in the day. you can play hard pressing, man-on-man and you still will have the full gas tank for your players, of course, if you use all your 22 players (and it is what you should do).

    Are you living in North or South America?

    I understand that It is difficult to handle. But the problem is, it is difficult (if not impossible) to be avoided that N or S America often plays 3 matches on same calendar day.

    I studied this long time ago and hope I can correctly recall. For N. or S. American teams, matches against European teams are arranged in the morning. Matches against Asian teams are arranged at night. If both matches on season day 1 are against European teams and both matches on season day 2 are against Asian team, 3 matches on same calendar day may not possibly be avoided. I never heard that any team played 4 matches on same calendar day. But it is also possible. American managers are unlucky. The season day start occurs during middle of the day. So their hours most suitable time for arranging for T11 matches are reduced for about 2 or 3 hours.

    If you are not interested to understand why it is dfficult. I will not try to further discuss or explain. I am not defending for Nordeus. You have right to complain.

    We discussed before why North /South American managers are so unlucky.

    I understand that it is difficult to handle. At present, Nordeus avoid arranging matches at hours that managers are usually sleeping. To handle these case, there were some suggestions to allow managers having more rights to select preferred time of their matches.

    I preferred providing simple options for managers to choose and not giving too much extra burden to Nordeus. So I suggested allowing managers to choose 1 out of about 4 time zones as preferred time of their matches (note: exception is still possible). As such, managers in N. or S. America who wants to avoid 3 matches on same calendar day have option to choose timetable of Europe. Any managers who prefer to play the matches in late night instead of day time can also choose time zone of another part of the world.

    But no fixture scheduling is perfect. Even if managers are allowed to freely suggest start time of all their matches, the opinions of opposite managers must also be considered. Moreover, Nordeus must also consider server loading and trying to arrange matches as evenly as possible.
