It seems like Quality, Attendance and Tactics mean Nothing in this Game

i've already said in suggestions about having a default neutral setting for AI for non present managers,i just feel at the moment the game AI is over compensating for the absent managers giving unfair advantage

Agreed. There needs to be given a bigger deference to players who actually manage their teams. In my book, if one manager is 20%+ stronger, has trained their team for 10% bonus in each category and sends a full squad against a manager who has done none of those things, it should be an automatic win.

Troll sequences come in troves. After my initial trolls (draws against teams 30% and 50% weaker), I ended up wiping up the floor with a team that was 8% weaker: 5-2 and then 4-0. I felt bad for the guy because it didn't reflect how close the teams were. I think I should have won 2-0 at home and 1-0 at his place. It seems strange and out of place to win by such a high margin against a strong team and then struggle against a much weaker side. It destroys the immersion.

You guys ever check the little statistics concerning goals conceded and goals scored?? Well most times I have unexpected results they usually reflect that. Like today I played a draw in my league match and it was exactly the same. I was at home and the manager wasn't there. It said he scores one per match and concedes one per match on average, exactly the same thing happened.

I just lost a game in CL again a 45 % weaker team whose manager was not present. And off course, their keeper was MOM.

Orders matter a lot. In this season (excluding asso games) I had only one real "troll" result, a 1-2 defeat against a -30% team in a league game I did not attend. When I went check, I discovered I had changed formation, but not orders, from the previous game. I was playing through the middle with a formation clearly focused on flanks. Unsurprisingly, this led to disaster, so for me the "troll" result was explained.

well, that's a wrong sentence.
The question is how often Quality, Attendance and Tactics mean Nothing in this Game ?
That's what I investigate.
I saw hundred or thousands comment about "I had better quality, full condition, morale, bonus, support, right tactics and oppo manager wasn't present".
But I never saw a post saying that "Me and some other managers had better quality teams, were active,..., but at the end a much weaker abandoned team won the title".

Not sure what you are getting at there. You don't need a weaker abandoned team to win the title to feel cheated. Having a much weaker team knock you out of the Cup, Champions League or compromise your League title chance is enough.

From my scouring the forums, a 15-20% difference with an abandoned team is approximately the point where people feel cheated.

Watching Tottenham at CL final (and not 15-20% better quality teams like Barca, Real, JUVE, Bayern, PSG, M.City) , as a football fan also felt cheated
At least Liveprool won it.
That's football.

Last season, my test team, never watched any game, only kept bonuses at max. I can't tell you how strong or active were other teams because I never payed attention, but my guess is most abandoned or bots.




This season, one slip so far. My team is 85%, strongest in the league, couple 75+ teams rest are rubbish. Again not attending games, just keeping bonuses and refreshing morale after 2 weeks.

You forgot the best team there Ajax

A good team but not with a 1*-2* quality difference from Tottenham as the other teams @Ποσιδονας mentioned .

Also if you think that Tottenham's latest transfer was Lucas Moura two seasons ago, you can consider them as an abandoned team - lol
