Don't it looks like the game tries to find you an opponent when there aren't?
    I find it hard to believe it's predetermined but like you I find myself having lost against a much worse team who are winning the league. The coincidence is I also faced them on day 12 and also lost 3-0.

    Surely has to be a coincidence but that is a little odd...

    In your opinion hes worse and his team may be rated worse but he must be doing something right to be winning the league? Whether its his formation or tactics. The guy i see as my main competitor in the champs league is alot better than i am, on paper (10 scouts, rated 5 stars overall to my 4) but hes second in his league to someone alot worse than he is. His problem is he has a far superior, attacking team, set up rather defensively.

    I'm not so fussed that I'm going to bother going into the details of why I think he's worse - I only wanted to express the weird coincidence

    My opponent 1st in the league is playing an asymmetric formation: 4/3/1/2 with only a DL on the left and still had a lot more corners than me and his team never suffer attack down both flanks.... add that is 8 points behind me in avg quality and so in his top 11... add that i am at the quarters finals of the cup and after the 5-2 of today in CL also (so i think i'm not the worst in the tactics).... add that he never followed his team.... add he has take only 4 goals in total....

    haha this is kinda creepy but one of my teams lost to an inferior team (who leads the league) on day 12 too! The result was 3-0 until the 84th minute when my players scored a freekick to make it end 3-1.

    In 1st season, I fought with 1 player for the first place. In round 12 played at his ground, and beated him with 6-0. In return, was the derby for 1st place, in penultimate round, 25th (remembered well ), same formations, and beated me 0-1 and he win the League.
    Last season conquered with one friend for League. Beated him in 12th round, and then secured 1st place with a draw in 25th round. I won League and he was second.
    This "year", after 4 matches me and another manager already leading the League with 3 points difference from 3rd place. I looked on schedule, and guess what? In 12th round we meet at my home, and then at him in 25th.
    I don't Blame Nordeus ( yet ), but it is strange... I really want to see if we still leading on 12th...
    What do you think?
