Level 17 this season.
I started this season with 14 players, 8 5* and 6 1* so I can have an easier draw in the cup.
This method still working for the cup but not for the league. In the Cup I had opponents from the same or 1 lv down, with 4* and 5* players.
But my league is very tough.
From the beginning there was teams with some 6* players and the weakest stll had a basic 11 squad of 5* players.
Finally I won the championship for another season
Too bad, teams like this not to promote in the next lv
or like this, to be in a such low position
* all the managers of my league were active -watching the games.
I saw the league of another team, very weak, which was playing in my CH.L. groups (and it's not the only one).
Those teams promote to the next CH.L. or winning titles !!!
nice job guys !
