I won 2 trebles in a row and of course, I've been put in the same situation as yours. But in my case, I completely understand the logic. If I were Nordeus, I would raise the challenge for teams like us because they know we might find a way and solve the problems. So they try to frustrate us in order to have us spending more resources into the game (either time or cash). On the other hand, they do not want to force us to quit. So now, both cup and league are easier (honestly, if I do not win the cup this season, that would be the ultimate evidence I know nothing about this game). And think about the other managers' feelings: how sweet it must be for them to beat a treble winner!
