That's what I mean. I had two matches in just over three hours for one of my teams today, the first was against a bottom-feeder with a crap Quality so I wanted to rest a few hi-Q players for the second match. I was wondering why, when I put lower-Q players in for them the Quality on the match preview didn't change, as it did yesterday, and the months before. Now I know, and I'm p*ss*d off about it...
One of my other teams has two of the best Quality players injured (because that's what the match engine does). If they're still included in the match preview Quality % then what the use of it???

@talisman
yeah I've noticed you have edited that post.
sure, quality of starting 11 should be visible. i guess it's too much to ask to have both. but IF this prevents someone to hide his best players in reserves and use that to fool matching system, I'm all for that. does not bother me is there 3 or 5% difference in displayed quality of my team (big deal, really.jeysus.), as long as the other guy can't cheat for 320%.
I saw such an update coming... Luckily enough, I've created a Libreoffice calc-sheet which analyses all my opponents I play against, considering just the real first eleven I'm facing. The only human interaction is putting in 33 numbers before every matchup, and even that would've been automated a long-time ago if Nordeus woudn't be so dick-headed about needing a god-damn Face-the-**** account which should be linked to play a god-damn browser game... Not in this lifetime, however, I'd rather drop dead...

The only editing I'be done to my posts are to maintain consistency in terminology or correct stupid predictive text errors.
There are other ways to see if any opponents have 'hidden away' any players, and any sensible managers already know how to find them. The loss here is the simple display of the comparison of Quality in starting XIs.
If the opposition manager has hidden players in their squad to reduce the starting XI Quality and brings them out again just before KO, then the alert manager will be logged on ready several minutes beforehand to detect this and make the appropriate changes, but in my experience most managers don't attend matches and for a while before the start of the match, WYSIWYG...

What You See Is What You Get.
I'll save you having to answer that one.
I swear to God I've got an albatross hanging from my neck!
4 seasons ago I tanked for the first time........that was the season Nordeus announced the end of association loans! Doh!
Same season, I bought a 3 star striker and began pumping him full of greens to create my very own mutant............You guessed it. They put the 340% cap in. Doh!
Last season I sold 4 players at 119% to manipulate the draw for the first time ever. It seems to have worked, but.......now this.
Is this going to affect draw manipulation? How? Why have they done this?
Where's the money?
Something smells fishy. And it ain't the breath from the albatross, cos it's dead.
