I still have the feeling some stuff is scripted. I have had seasons where I was 13 points ahead and in the end won the league with just 1 point in difference. I had ridiculous games in that season like 3-0 against the bottom feeder where he had stuff like 9 shots and 3 on target against my 25 shots with 10 on target.
I often think that the developpers are having a ball when they read on this forum about supposed tactics when everything is already decided in advance.
