Are some players programmed to perform badly no matter what?
I ask because I bought a striker at the start of the season. He's a 4 star player at my level, 20 years old. I always have him at 80% or higher condition, very good or superb moral and my team is second on the league as I win most of my games and yet he always performs badly. In 14 matches he's scored just 2 goals and has 1 assist and gets ratings of 5 or 6.
Any explanations?
Maybe he's not good?
HE could be like Bebe on ManU?
Sit him out for a bit, try again after a few games. If he's still not performing, cash in!
He should be good at my level. I might have to cash in soon I think.
sell him in first day of next season , and try to get a better STQuote:

You should sell him or keep him as a sub. This kind of performance/ratings are quite familiar
If he doesn't perform well, put a mask on him like they did for Torres :) Seems to be working fine for him. Seriously, if he is not performing as he should, then indeed selling him would be the best choice!
or 90% of liverpool players :DQuote:

Or Borini of mickey mousers!!!
this is probably the worst aspect of the game and i seriously wonder what the hell the coders of Nordeus were thinking. Some players will ALWAYS perform really bad, no matter what.
The worst thing is that you dont know who they are before buying them (most of the times) so you might spend a lot of tokens on such a **** player.
So keeping with real life then, can't deny Nordeus that... I see it as just part of the experience.Quote:

Yea ... I have a ML/AML that behaves in a similar manner, too bad I don't have a replacement, so I can't really sell or bench him. Anyway, I just wanted to share another thing that I'm seeing - average (in skill) teams have more players getting high grades when winning a match than the top ones. I always try to keep my condition and morale up and I have the best team by far in my league, yet I rarely get more than 4 players with an 8 rating in a match. Most of other teams seem to get 8+ on more than half of their squad.
Wait untill next season's matches. My DMC performed awfully last season, untill the very end when he scored 7's and 8's in the last 4-5 matches (including CL final). This season he's yet to perform under 7, and 90% of times he scores 8 at the point i benched my 7* DMC to let him play.
I'd keep him and train him if he's not playing well. He's young, so his stats will improve and his value will go up. If he still plays bad when you try him again you can sell for more than he's worth now. I got a 19yr, Q30, 1.7m MC who's not performing so benched him for a 22yr, Q26, 750k player that's doing better. I'll be patient but if my youngster doesn't up his game I'll just replace him. Bought for 1.2m so nice profit anywaysQuote:
