Sorry guys but how about to make some useful tool for the devs here in the forum ?

The problem is larger than just troll result. I'd say, it's practically absent correlation between the efforts of the manager, all kinds of numbers and controls shown by the game (morale levels, condition levels, in fact even level of the players, stats shown during the game, orders given by the manager, attacking/defending mentality, and pretty much everything else), and what's going on in the game. If I change mentality from hard attacking to hard defending (just for one example), I see no change in the live game. Whether I check or uncheck "play offside trap", they do it regardless. And so on. The player who approaches opponent's goal up front, has very little chances to score, while the player shooting at however sharp angle, has 100% chance. If the shot has bounced from the opponent's goalkeeper to my player, the 2nd shot will score 100%. And so on. The problem is that the game is obviously preprogrammed, and that preprogramming does not depend on the actions of the manager.

And we did not see any indication that the devs are looking for our input, or even that they visit this forum.

. If I change mentality from hard attacking to hard defending (just for one example), I see no change in the live game. .

There's a huge difference when you do that, the whole team sits back.
Watch two teams playing each other both on hard defensive and it's almost like no one wants the ball!
Maybe it's because 99% of the time I play attack so when I do change on the odd occasion it's really noticeable to me.

Your Gk deserved motm, he saved 4/4(shots on target) better than the oppo gk 5/6, he prevented a defeat

Got eliminated from the Cup with a troll result, -17% missing opponent, three seasons in a row when this happens, really gets boring.

No red cards in any of the games. The only game I was not present is the last one. In none of the games was the opposing manager present. So that is allready 7 games this season that seem off to me. In the last 56 seasons I have had the occassional result that felt wrong, but nothing like this. My team is pretty much the same aside from the improvements we all try to make each year.

Feels just very very off.

Thanks for making this thread. I have a fantastic example of what is being said above about the outcome being opposite to effort being put in.

My team 137% (and better when looking at the specific ATT, DEF attributes) vs. Opponent: 112%
I was at home, attended the match (other manager did not) and I had additional fans resulting in a +15% possession advantage. Overall I had a possession advantage of 74% to 26%.

The opposing team had TWO RED cards.

All my players had positive motivation and, as this was the second leg of the Cup and I had already lost the first (2:1), I put the money bonus to full.

RESULT 2:4

Please someone explain. I attended the match, changed tactics as it looked necessary, blah, blah, blah. My team had not allowed four goals in a game the entire season against equal or greater teams let alone one 25% weaker who lost two players, due to reds, during the game.
I haven't given up yet but this result is making me question my sanity about putting any time into this game.

[I would love to post screenshots from the game but for some reason they are not loading into this post. Another thing to be fixed.]

I guess, the only reasonable conclusion is realization that the true genre of this game is slot game. Some slot machines probably also have football players depicted on their drums, and the casino patron who feeds it with the tokens probably also can fantasize that he has invested in training them.
