Log In To Game = Mistake

I rarely watch my games these days because to me, the risk of a troll is too great and the algorithms seem to favour the absent Manager especially if that absent Manager is the away team. I finished 2nd in the league last season and watched only 1 game.
Today in the Cup I logged in as I was away and it was 0-0 from first leg. I was 2-1:down to an absent Manager and getting battered then he logged in and suddenly the whole game changed in my favour. I scored 3 quick goals and the players ratings suddenly improved considerably. I ended up winning 6-2.
Proof if ever that logging in is bad for your team (in my experience anyway).

I also want to do that but I can't. I just want to see my players performance live no matter if I lose xD

At old times it was the opposite - lol

Funnily enough Nik, you arrived to watch my game at 1-1 then within a minute he scored to go 2-1 up. I blame you haha.

Last season I started with 2 points after 5 league games and decided to take the season less serious, which meant logging in once or twice a day when I have time and train bonuses, make morale green.
After these 5 games I didn't attend a single game anymore. I finished as winner of the league with a record of 20-2-4, so only lost one more game after these first 5 where I was active.

No point in watching games, I will use my time more efficient.

Absolutely. Hallelujah it’s not just me!

I have been saying this for a few months and the "wise" old heads ,not all just some ,laughed at me and said I didnt know what I was talking about. Never watched a game in the last 2 seasons of my 2 teams , lower tier team has 2 Leagues a Cup , a CL and CL runner up and a Super Cup , higher tier team has 1 League and a third(on gd) , a Cup and a CL runner up in that time. I
Its stupid but the worst thing you can do is watch your team but if you must watch then if your winning put your hands in your pockets and do nothing but watch.

Naaahh i will always watch them :D

i watch every game when i can and see no difference , what i do see is AI engine favouring the absent manager it was noticeable in a cup game last season when away team with absent manager clearly had different tactics from defensive in 1st half to attacking in second,that could only be a built in AI decision

And to those who don't believe you can tell: when the animation shows your GK punting to put the ball back in play, if all of your players are at midfield or more advanced, your team is set to "attacking". If your players are closer to your GK, your team is set to "defending". Same for opponent, and you can see when it changes.

what a joke...

I agree with you, whenever I'm absent (usually I'm stronger side) , easily get a 3-0 4-0 win , but when I attend the match, my team struggle a lot and might end up with a draw or even a lost
I experiment this by not joining the game until the match almost over (second half) , I join in and see the score is 0-0 , not long after that they score 1 goal and win the match...

it doesnt work with me.i tried online and not when i have match.
no difference.either online or not i win-lose but most of the times with troll results.that never leaves me hahaha
