I disagree on most. Apologies but i really do.

1) Negotiation was exploited in so many ways, it is a fairer playing field without it. None of us can use it anymore.
2) Trolling affects us all so isnt it fair as well? Win some lose some
3) I personally feel more supporters help but not too much to disadvantage players who do not join facebook groups
4) Player ability and white skills still rule, maybe nerfed but for sure it still rules
5) Tactics probably does matter, at least the defensive attacking part

There are many still getting doubles and trebles despite what you feel.
They cant all be better than you, its a matter of whether you can afford the time since it got tougher
