No, nothing.
I play the game like ever - no manipulating of draws (or do you think it's funny, to play against the chinese guy/dnag ever season.
), no special training on Costa,...
all of his % he gained this season (or past seasons) were because of MoM-titles and normal training ( he is 31, I tried on the 1.day to push him, but he needed 7 greens for a single % - maybe he is worth to spend a lot of greens, but: if he retires, I will miss all the greens
and he performs without pushing him.
)
Maybe... they only difference between other player: I gave him more time during a game, to show his genius: f.e. if Costa has a rating of 6,5 at half time, he still plays another ~20 min. If da Silva/Meiringer have 6,5 at half time, they will subed.
Best game in this case was at 1.week: Costa dropped to 5,8 (no off/deff arrow helped), I changed his position, he scored 3 goals, took MoM. This is only because of one reason: I know he is a legend, there's nothing, he can do. Everyone else would be subed.
I also loan Costa often in asso games - he also performs at their teams. Last weekend, he scored 9/assisted 6 of 17 goals.
If you don't believe in my words: asked some members (brolly, nik, madflo,...) - they follow a lot of my games. Or feel free to add me on FB and follow on your on.
