20 level..I am losing every match... Help!

Buying 11 new players was definitely your first mistake. Why would you do that with a winning squad? I can understand replacing a few that are older or didn't perform well, but the whole squad? To me that's the biggest mistake managers make.
I rarely change more than 3-4 players per season, I've even used the same 11 for multiple seasons in a row.
I'm level 37, I don't buy tokens, and I've won 7 straight CLs

Wow, thanks for giving me a glimmer of hope that there's a future for managers who are not buying tons of tokens to compete.

I'm glad there's a chance to maintain a strong squad every season without the need to buy tokens. I'm a rather new to Top Eleven and I'm really scared of my players losing stars every season I advance to the next level of the league.

Would it be too much to ask for some tips and hints how to successfully maintain the quality of my squad throughout each season? I'd be happy to receive a PM from you, since you seem to be really experienced.

I see you made lots of tutorials, in case all of the knowledge is gathered in those guides I'm off for watching the vids.

You are funny guys... You didn't even ask why I bought new 11 players.. Maybe because the players that I had on the bench were in optimal moment to sell like 59%, like 39%, like 79%... You didn't ask do I use only new players... But you have great idea that this was my biggest mistake... The biggest mistake to not have players on the bench.. to not to have players to training... to not have players to gain training bonus... But, of course, it was my biggest mistake... Only experts are in this forum...

So do you not train your team during the season? My entire squad trains to a point where they are not far off the next star come the end of the season. Therefore none of them drop below 5*. Not sure how you would allow your squad to dip so low in % unless they're all slow trainers. Just my opinion though. Each to their own!

Of course I train them but if someone is suspended someone else must take him place.. And what about players with 2,3, 4 stars? You are not receiving players from Academy and keep them for some time? You are not holding in your team players for many seasons just like you said who scores for you many goals but they are 4 stars?

By careful rotation and selling one or two players at the end of the season then replacing them (I usually buy Nordgens or negotiated players one away from Scout), I keep my squad at a constant level.
Yes, I had one player who consistently was mine and the League top scorer but he was 4* at retirement aged 33 as I trained him hard throughout his career.
I accept 2* Academy players and sell them straight away. I do not bother with the 4* ones. One exception being a 4* Academy player I bought for a few tokens and trained him up to 7* that same morning.
All of my squad, including reserves are trained to at least 5*, so suspensions don't cause major problems in my squad. And I don't buy tokens.
Like I said, we all have our methods. Mine works for me every season. Yours clearly is not working this season.
