Besides, I'm still superior to my opposition even without the fast trainers. I'm already 8 points ahead in the league and through to the quarter finals in the cup.
I feel the need to intervine here.
But i always use zonal marking and low pressing in my team, so condition loss from a game is always max 20%.
I never feel the need to invest greens in my players condition because they are always 85+ before every game.
