16 points are 5 wins and a draw ahead. The league is probably won, unless some big **** happens.
How are you doing in the other competitions?

The beginning of Crunch Time

Currently sitting in first place in League and still active in both Cup (semifinals) and CL (quarterfinals). My team tends to get around this level regularly but I can never seem to win the Treble (now Quadruple) and usually end up with one of the three. All the teams left are strong so we will have to see how the next week goes.

*btw, just want to mention that given that the team has done so well my team morale is down from previous years. Players are grousing about playing time, not enough assists or are “satisfied” but still only a ‘good’ morale rating. This may not be the absolutely correct thread for this but as it affects the overall season, and potentially how the team finishes it, I wanted to mention it.

How is matching done in associations these days when making fixtures, best 11 players, best 13 players or something else?

Best 11 I guess, but Nordeus has some tricks off their sleeves: I remember when a 104% beat my 120% on 0-7 goal margin...

Considering the draw i seen today, it does not look like best 11, because some of the opponents are stronger by 10-30%, and one thing that catch the attention is their relatively weaker bench and reserve players.

I've put a mostly bench and reserve team in for a League match against a low-Quality bottom team today and got matches against a lower-Quality team for the Associations matches tomorrow - he'll get a surprise when he faces a team more than 15% better than he thought on match day.

I've been matched against what was pretty poor opposition on Friday that turned out to be 10%+ better than me on Saturday (bl**dy Tankers) several times - and still got 4/6 points from both matches.

It appears that only the Association matchup is done on the average Quality of the best players in teams over the week, the individual matches still seem to be on the Starting XI when the draw is made.

Something is fishy for sure because 98% versus 130%, 116% versus 129%... and I also noticed something that you said, they had lower quality players set as first 11.
