This was not bot team. I understand why this problem happening. Your connection probably has bigger input lag than they had at this time you monitoring their first shot in delay when GK selection is already locked. I think they will add a waiting room for couple seconds before the PvP starts.
It should be fun to play for Managers who can push for additional investment for PvP event and also some guys will be here satisfying their hack and slash skills. I agree with you, this is not an appropriate event for a manager game and for me either. But it didn't really bother me. what a funny coincidence is they've released this money based event right before the first money based World Cup(Fans are hired from Pakistan to fill stadiums for the tournament.)begins in Qatar 22.
