I have been playing the game just over 2 years, am on level 30 and have really do enjoy playing...with the exception of the odd spurious game - and have won 14 leagues, 4 champions leagues and 6 cups. I have never bought a token and constantly view max number of adverts to get green tokens.
But the last 4 seasons have infuriated me, and made me think this is has got to be fixed. I train players like mad, always get them to 120-125%. Last 4 seasons running i have been between 7 and 10 points clear after 15 games, nearly always scored more and conceded less than opponents and had top scorer.
Then in each of these seasons strikers suddenly stop scoring (whichever formation i put out), defence starts shipping 3-4 goals a game, and i get key players (usually free kick takers) sent off. This is despite using same formation in 2nd half of season against teams using same formation - who i beat comfortably in the first half.
First time this happened i did not think a great deal about it. 2nd time was crazy - i was 12 points clear at halfway and drew about 7 games in a row. Third time i was pipped by a team who won 13 games in a row who were about 20% lower. Then this season - won 16 drawn 1, in champions league SF.....scored 81 goals (30 more than anyone else) ....then lose next 7 in a row, including champions league SF after being 3-0 up in first leg. I am losing 2-0 and 3-0 to teams who are abandoned and I have 8-10 supporters. No players sent off in first 17 games, and 4 players sent off in 4 games. Always strikers or free kick takers. I even used 50 green tokens to train another player in free kicks as a back up.....and hey...he got sent off after 22 minutes of champions league SF.
Somebody please explain this if you are able, because i do not think you need to be conspiracy theorist to think something is not quite as it seems. My hunch is that it is a mechanism to try and force you into token buying higher level players.
thanks
