Associations are the worst. I'm a level 52 and I mostly played with members of level 5 to 33.
Every game is some kind of pain for eyes. My players are at level of skills of 270 to 282, and can't beat a players of 70. It's not good.
What's about of experience?
Where is that?
It's not normal that a weaker manager be a better of team a level like mine.
It's look like better to start from a level 1 and played against a stronger managers.
