It's not cool, and unfair to others who even put real money in the game in order to compete... Meanwhile, this is by no means being aggressive on you or anything, I'm just saying. So, I'm sorry ahead of time if I come off offensive.

    I have worked hard plenty myself in many past seasons. Made good signings, committed to training, flexible tactics, everything. Then out of nowhere in order to win the Champions League I have to face a team that is 20-30% stronger than mine (and all other contenders for the same trophy), usually a manager who somehow added a special ability to all of his players and improved their quality drastically over night. And this is not just an isolated incident, it's a regular occurrence. Those managers seem to just snap a finger and win the treble. Now is that fair towards me and others who can't afford to invest real money or decide to keep it for far more important things than some silly game? Frankly I'd bet that putting anything above minimum amount of real money is more likely to give you a bigger advantage over others than tanking one season.

    All I wanted to do was give myself a better shot for CL just for next season (for which I actually have to win the Super League this week so it's not like I can afford to just sit back and spectate this season either, if anything I have made a gamble by putting all eggs in the SL basket), nothing more than that. Because my Top Eleven ambitions are lower than most other managers - win every competition once and be done with it. I am going to be promoted in the end so there is no chance of me of gaining any advantage anyway...
    United FC: 6 leagues (1 invincible), 1 cup, 2 CLs
    St. Tropez 1964: 6 leagues (1 inv), 1 cup, 1 CL (1 Treble)
    Newton Heath: 7 leagues (2 inv), 1 cup, 1 CL, 1 SLs, 1 SC
    The Black Pearl: 3 leagues (1 inv), 2 cups, 1 CL, 2 SL, 1 SC
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Manchester Heath: 16 leagues (10 inv), 11 Champions Leagues, 11 Cups, 5 Super Leagues, 11 Super Cups... (5 Quadruples, 2 Invincible seasons)

    Noted. I understand you perfectly, I'd be lying if i told you I've never considered tanking myself tbh,... But then, 2 wrongs never made a right.

    I hate tanking, but when I met opponents 20-50% higher in my league...tanking became a righteous cause

    But after few minutes he sent me a friend request. I accepted but will have to unfriend him again before the season ends.

    I wish there was some way to re-track the guys you have unfriended.
    What a crooked guy he is. I have supported him so many times and in return he has supported me zero times. Today again he showed up during my League game and supported the opponent.

    I haven't unfriended him this time but before season ends I will unfriend him as he is same level as mine to never friend him again.

    Season 130 - Are you ready?

    Yay, take a look at this, very disappointed, we only got to the Semi Finals this season, that is our worst finish in a very, very long time, still can’t believe it, we were awful, 4-1 up towards the end and look how they knocked me out, cruel really.

    My streak of 45 consecutive home wins ended today, to an average team.

    I will win the league and cup but still, not good enough, I wanted all 4 but that won’t be happening, 1 very annoying draw writes off our season.


    That is just painful, so close but yet so far, looking to get this season out of my memory quickly.

    So that is the way we lose it, damn it.

    We will be unstoppable next season, lets see how the league goes then shall we?

    I don’t know if this season has been better than lost but we had a difficult draw, probably would have lost in the CL anyway, good luck to him in the final, he attended both matches and he made an unbelievable effort at trying to take me down, which he did successfully, will be looking for better next season.

    Unfortunately, they decided to troll you too.
    Truth be told, i still believe it is your fault. In knockouts games you shouldn t be trolled, only one game in a while...
    I would have went defensive after 4-2 if i were you, but i know the game doesn t care about most of the tactical stuff anyway.
    I hope you still win the league, so the season isn t absolutely wasted.Heads up, even the best go down.
    I m still around, LOL!

    I am aware, I know where my fault was, but I couldn’t change it, my flank was screwed, only one player which I will take the blame for, because I had no replacements, 3 goals in 12 minutes though, lol.

    45 game home winning streak in all competitions, gone, my keeper has been awful lately, League we still need to win.

    No I didn’t lol, kept it at normal because I wanted to wipe the floor with him, how that came to bite me back, I am focusing on the next game already, I want that game out of my memory. I will take partial blame for it because f what I said above, first time, I have conceded 4 goals at home in a very long time, since I changed my keeper to my name, he has been woeful.

    To conclude, I didn’t’t but maybe Nordeus did Lol.

    I had defensive/hard defensive and conceded 2 goals from like 3 shots against a 18% worse opponent.
