Mate, this is crazy. Well somehow his team is good enough but really nothing special while all my players have their white skills above 200+. In this case how the hell it is possible that we have such a difference in results.
Here is one small example of one of my players (who was the leader and main scorer of my team since he was 18 scoring 80-100 goals each season) who suddenly this season stopped scoring and playing. Till now he scored only 17 goals in 38 matches but he is mainly getting 6 and 7 marks (very seldom 8) for each match when previously he used to get only 9-10. He is missing ALL his free kicks and penalties. But only look at his white skills - they are still crazy especially with the current training system. How the hell his performance can be so bad.
So once again I put a question here which for sure will remain unanswered - why the hell should we spend time and efforts training our players when some 100 skills player easily performs much better than 300+ player.
I would say more - this season my DC with 1% attacking skills scored 12 goals against 17 that we have from my best attacker.
i manipulated the draws as well, the highest opponent in quality is 95%... most of them are 2* abandoned teams in league and 70-85% in cups. (i am almost 120%). so playing with -40, -50% teams should be a piece of cake... but nordeus thinks not, and most of the matches were as close as they can get. i barely passed through the final in cup by winning at penalties with a 88% team... that's crazy! he was active and played defensively but still... 50-50 possession with such a team is just unreal.
this game is pure lottery at the moment. you know you're going to be trolled, but the troll always comes when you're sure it's going to be an easy win.
so, my theory remains: i don't know on what criteria, but some teams are advantaged from the start of the season and they have more chances to win trophies, while some teams, even if they are in top form and train well, they lose with pathetic teams constantly. and that's a fact more than a theory. how does the server calculates who is going to win trophies and who will be trash one season or another? we'll never know...
