I do not get your point mate. I played 42 competitive games so far this season with 10% bonus and high morale. I watched 39 of them for total a record of 39 wins and 1 draw. And I'm still in for a treble. So, I think I may claim that waching the games do no harm to your team. Sure, I have also won without watching. But I lost too. And I have already lost to unattented or half-abandoned teams as well. This is part of this game.

gizzmo, my point is to show till were do we really have control on things that happen on the game.......and im getting to the point, we dont....results are pre determinated.....no matter what you do, if the game chooses you to win you win, if the game puts you on the losers part is nothing you can do to change that......and i keep with my winning stake since i "left" the team's weel........today again reposts say we do a great work on training...all 4 thumbs up......but i dont do training...today i went to play with the 2 icons for trainings required befor game........

Difficult to fight against feelings. But you should try something very easy to prove at least one part of your theory wrong: results are not pre-determined. At least the ones where one manager is in. Choose a game where you are huge favourite, start your best 11 and join at half-time. The chances are you will be leading. Then, switch to a silly tactic (no GK, players out of position, etc..). And you'll see if changes do not have an impact. You may easily go from 4-0 to 4-6. Did it several times when I was tanking. Sure, the changes have a more subtle impact in a real game against a serious opposition. In a way, it's good. Otherwise it would mean that whatever mistake you did at the beginning of the game could be solved eventually at your oppo's expenses. Sometimes I could not recover from my earlier mistakes. Sometimes, if I lead 2 or 3-0, I try to anticipate what the other is gonna do. And you may imagine it works the other way round as well, making your changes useless. And sometimes, it's just about luck, like in real life.

On much more than once, my observation was that this results in the opposing team (whose manager is not present) scoring a goal within 10 seconds after you join.

I agree, when I join my team during the match, the opponent scores a gol in a few seconds, also when I join a match of my friend.
