    Thats what happened to me as well.

    Last season. Lost league game BEFORE CL Final, Won Champions League BUT lost the unbeaten league record.
    This season. Won league game BEFORE CL Final, Lost Champions League BUT finished the league unbeaten.

    Rest is a lot important aswell. Player ratings, despite what people say, are more than nust numbers. Expecially within your main 11, you can see when a player is getting tired by the rates he hets. I monitored my 11 all season and there never was a sudden peak in form or sudden fall. Hutton IE had 15 games rating 9 (13mom) then three on 8 where he scored less, then went on 7 for at least 5 matches without scoring. Resting him for 3 matches (2 days) sent him back to 8 rating with some goals, then two 9 with four goals and 3 assists. Same goes for my midfielders as as soon as trnma started going from 8 to 7 then 6 rating, our pressure on pitch suffered too. Each time i got him out, or whoever in the team who was decreasing in scores, suddenly the pressure bar and overall the match got a whole better. To keep an eye on that.

    Of course rest is important, and I operate a squad rotation on games, when its a dead-rubber or a game I'm clearly going to win, I will rest my most important players so everybody gets a game every so often.

    Yes but timing is important. Resting a player in amazing form (several 9 rates or more 9 than 8) might stop his amazing state, as well as letting him play after his scores decrease might let him go on a crysis.

    As for tonight, 15 minutes before the whistle:



    New Team fled towards their friends Balkan Boyz and is ready to party the recent achievements of both teams! Bakuretsu Storm and FC Nubcleric will follow the game aswell, as to even the away possession stadium's bonus and cheer on both teams! Hopefully none of both teams will reach the beer cargo right behind the showers before the match ...

    Nothing to seee..... just the "usual"... You know - Opa Balkan Style, hop hop...

    Creed for @Morgon O´Bree! Perhaps one of the most, if not the best "tactician" I played against... We (both) changed formations like 4 or 5 times ... I offer you a re-match at your turf, right now or tomorrow?

    2 awesome teams in terms of Quality going head to head there... 2 teams that would easily give my team a good game if they had been the same level as my team.
