Season 40

[Keith Gaule]

Surprisingly, yes! As I have watched most games I've played, and my opponent has been watching too. I do think some of them are clueless though, like today, I beat the team in second 7-0 ... away! and the guy was watching! He didn't make one change all match. I subbed 3, had to really with the 2 injuries. Now, admittedly, I have 4 scout players in, but I have some of my other original players trained up almost as good. I am constantly training and buying/selling, always strengthening my squad - if the others aren't doing same, well, what can I do only hammer the bejaysis out of them? I'm building strong for the higher levels, as I know all players get docked a star when they go up and things get a lot tougher. I would prefer more of a challenge though.

See what did happen when I messed with my formation and wasn't there to make changes? draw against one of the weaker sides in the league. Gots to keep at it, no matter how weak the opposition.

As regards to the scout players... To be honest you don't really need all these scouts at the lower levels until you reach around L10+ when you start to face more active managers and better teams rather than mostly inactives and 2* teams, the only time I would recommend buying lots of scout players in the lower levels of the game is if you come up against a scout buyer, normally full 5* is more than sufficient to win trophies in the lower leagues. A lot active of managers in the lower levels will have rubbish teams because they won't know exactly how t11 works and may struggle to get to grips with how exactly the auction system works when its quite simple in all honesty.
