Hi.
I am playing in the Tippeliga and after 8 games I'm on 1st place with 5 straight wins (6-1-1) The only problem is that those wins have been narrow victories were I've just avoided conceding a goal, whilst only scoring 1 myself. Those goals usually came from penalties and such. Therefor I thought it was a bit odd that I suddenly defeated Brann 5-0. They didn't even have a shot at goal. I figured the tactic I was using was pure gold so I stuck with it in the next game, but there I ended up losing 4-0 to Sandefjord. Infact, I was lucky that I only lost 4-0.
Seeing as how names like Brann and Sandefjord probably doesn't mean that much to you, let me put it this way; it's about the same as beating Man Utd 5-0 with Tottenham, then suddenly losing 4-0 to Burnley who just happen to have three of their best players out with injury.
I know this seems like just a rant, but I don't see the reason why this should happen. The same tactic, much weaker opponent, yet watching it would make you wonder if I was playing 1-1-8 or something. Does this happen often to you? I know that teams figure out your tactic about half way (you know this when you suddenly start conceding 15 goals in three games), but 8 games is a bit early, don't you think?
