Can this game be more stupid???

Completely agree. Start of the season is pretty much random as far as I can tell, before it all settles down. Maybe it's an attempt to mix the leagues up, who knows.

Does it make any difference if you play a load of friendlies pre-season instead of training?

Finally someone else notices this! I think Nordeus puts a "Handicap" on better teams at the beginning of the season, I have no evidence of this except 20 seasons of playing the game and noticing the strange results. It happens just about every season. I guess they have to do something to even things out but it gets very frustrating.

often if the team at the top has a high goal difference it generally balances out as the below start to to score more goals

IMHO, this is just a troll random game which decides automatically when to troll you and you can do nothing in this case to change the result. E.g., till 2 days ago I haven't lost a single point in any of the matches I played. During the last 4 matches I hardly won 1-0 against the last team of the league and had a draw 0-0 against the 13th team of the league + lost champions league 3-0 and cup 3-1 to much lower ovr opponents with abscent managers. Recently this game engine has no logic.

No need to build a team! No need to train your players! No need to visit the matches - All the results are predetermined the 1st day of each season. CRAP!!! Dear devs - just look how you really ruined a perfect game
