does it teach you discipline and give you a sense of professionalism ?
Are you from those managers who wake up early in the morning at the beginning of the each new season to catch some good players?
Are you from those managers who calculate time to benefit to the last drop from the free 6 % condition that are provided every 3 hours ?
etc...
share your stories , ideas, and views.
Regards
Happy new year 2019

Not going to lie, since I downloaded this app it has consumed me lol. Well, not consumed, but I have no time or room for any other game on my phone right now. I don't wake up early to any game that's scheduled earlier than 10 am (I'm an early riser anyway, wake n bake) as its just a game and I trust my tactics, but I guarantee I have watched all of the ads to rest my players faster and gain resources. At the beginning of the season I spend a lot of time in the transfers tab but I try to get my additions done day 1 of the new season. Throughout the season I attend as many games as I can and sometimes, this is kind of embarrassing but, I just open the app and stare at the team I have thumbing through stats and skill %s just admiring the team I've made. Sometimes I'll swipe through the club stats page as well. I'm a nerd for top 11 but I imagine it is because I am good at soccer managing since I used to play it on FIFA a lot lol. If this was my first experience and I was just learning how to soccer manage, I probably would have quit a long time ago as the learning curve is kind of steep without past experience in managing sims.
How much time estimated do you guys spend every month on top 11 ( watching matches + training + playing special competitions + waiting players on auction for bidding ) ??
the best part is i got in touch with some really great minds. their thoughts on football is amazing.
I attend almost every game I can other than association matches so with 26 league games and (for me) 6 guaranteed group stage games, assuming I get knocked out first round of both tournaments which I don't btw, that's 32 games each being 8 minutes long. So, for a soft estimate, 256 minutes a month- so at least 4 hrs a month spent just staring at simulations. Wow I need to use my time a bit better..Quote:

I typically log in for probably 30-40 minutes before going to bed to do my trainings/set lineups/scout my upcoming opponents/check transfers/etc.. Then I log in for about 10-20 minutes after I get up to make sure my timing was right and everyone will be 99% for the match. I also watch some videos to get my team's morale up, and double check my formation, etc.
Then a few hours later I log in for my match (~10 minutes)..
Then later that day I likely have another cup/champions league match that I'll log in for (~10 minutes).
Then repeat.
Near the end of the season, I might log in specifically for an opponent's match, to support their opponents, which is another 10 minutes for that. For example, this season I was 5 points behind the league leader with 5 games left in the season. My team failed to beat them (we tied 2-2), so I needed help from the rest of the league. So I started checking when his matches were and logging in to support his opponents. It worked, during his first 21 games he won 19 and tied 2 (0 losses). For his last five games (which I kept logging in for to root against him), he only won 2, lost 1 and tied 2... so I overtook him and won the league by 2 points. Whew!
