Age 27, average quality is still about 120%, finishing way over 300%, shooting 180%+ and grey skills went all down to 1% after last season. No tricks used, basic training from the age of 18.

I think they have done something against mutants and it has something to do with the difference between white and grey skills. My whole last season wasn't that good. I had weird problems against way weaker teams. This term I have trained some grey skills and at least it seems like it has helped some of my players with low grey skills and also my whole team. I can't be sure that the problem is there, but it seems to work for me.
Iv done the same regarding training greys. Luckily, most of my team (through similar training to yours) were in their teens and early 20’s so I trained greys at a rate of 6-8 skill points per session. It was crazy. I was having exactly the same problems as you observed. My players with high whites and single figure greys seemed seriously affected. I sorted the problem out like you did, training greys only, improved my overall rating and won every league game after that but the leader didn’t have any early season problems as his players were just average looking, scout type players who already had greys almost matching his white skills throughout his players.

You could be right about it just being mutants nerfed. Il find out next season as the player in question I plan to retire from first team and let him retire on the bench over the next few years. Il replace him with an 18yr old AML, train FK SA and i suppose il find out from there. He’s the ‘weakest’ overall in my team but had the best individual stats and has been an absolute legend until slowing down last, and seeming average this season. He would usually have 35-40 goals now but has 23.
