I would just work out how many games you need to win to stay in this league, then work out how you can do that. Pick your battles and don't attempt to win every game. Red the rules and make sure you understand the tactics etc. Good luck.

Thanks for the tip, though one thing i wanted to get an opinion on is why does everyone seem to have a stacked starting lineup and then a trash second 5? i get training up and selling for cash etc but what about when you want to go for the title? is this a better strategy then having a bit more balanced lineup?

I'd say it's got a lot to do with the player salaries floor. In this div, the floor is roughly 250k which means that even if your players only total 120k in salaries, you'll still have to pay 250k. So you might as well have a few half decent players instead of paying for an entire team full of bums.

I think you answered your own question through your observation.

yeah possibly, but at the same time, in my previous season. I did really well by having a balanced team but this season, i'm being bullied so i was curious to see people who have spent longer in the game than i, what their thoughts were from experience. considering the stats and the wage that it demands, it would seem that the jump to the top tier of a player isn't worth such a dramatic increase but then again, i'm being bullied every game. my guys are still a bit off but if they were maybe 2-3 main stats down with a balanced team, i figure I would be seeing more positive results ...

You would have easily won last night's game if your players gameshape was good. But it seems you've been running your players into the ground with 75-85 mins per week. You need to reduce those weekly minutes to around 60-70 mins. Your best players are currently 'average' (level 6) when you should have them at 'strong' (level 8) or 'proficient' (level 9).

In other words, your better players are now tired and less effective because you've played them too many minutes.

Solid advice. It goes back to not trying to win every game. Player management is important.

usually I'm pretty good with balancing game time and keeping game shape to a minimum 7-8 but within this league, when I have been losing by a bit, I was worried my supporters would start declining etc and I would struggle to earn money which would not help. But even losing all games, it seems that is not a factor for me atm.
I ended up playing my weaker side for big minutes this game passed and I won so I'll take the advice you've given me and use it to keep balance and prioritize certain games to win and some to let be. Thank you for the advice! muchly appreciated!!!
