Hi guys,

harsh days...

Well here is my quick report: I lost the game on saturday 5:0 against the #1 league opponent (his quality was at least 116% against my 105%) and it seemed that I had no chance although the statistics do look alright or at least balanced. I played first 4-1DMC-4-1 and after conceiving two or three goals switched to 451V. But it went even worse afterwards. ^^

Missed the game yesterday in the morning against a ~98% opponent but won 2:1. He was present and I even did not put any effort in my squad concerning formation, tactics etc. because I was too tired (and to be honest unmotivated after the previous big defeat) the evening before. But at least it went well. He is at the moment second to the last in the league so it was actually a "must-win".

First leg cup game yesterday was at first promising but I got two goals in the 82nd and 83rd minute and lost 3:2 outwards. Opponent was equally strong and watched the game as well. I hope I can beat him in the 2nd leg.

Today I am playing against the "worst" competitor in the league. Her (?) squad does only have 49%.

I think I really have to "manipulate" the draw before the upcoming season. I have invested quite a lot in new players (mainly fast trainers) but it is not even close enough to keep up with these guys in the league or later on in the cup and CL. I will take it as it is for now but yeah, it does quite suck a lot to invest a ton of time and effort to improve your team and at the beginning of the new season you do have no chance because of the draw.

Thanks for reading and best,
