So just after Xmas time in my first season I was going really strong with Real Sociedad using another tactic on this forum. Hadn't made any signings and using a lot of youth, I was into the 1st KO of the Europa League and was 3rd in La Liga. I'd lost games but was still up there. Then around mid Feb, I went on a horrendous run of 1 win in my next 8 games that saw me knocked out of Europe as well as drop to 7th in the league. With my own drained morale, not to mention the fact that half my team would only stay if I got Champions League football, I decided to knock it on the head.
Then I found this tactic and thought I'd give it another shot. This happened:
9 wins, 1 draw and 2 loses, seeing me win the Copa del Rey AND pinch 4th place from Real Madrid. Thank god for this tactic. Now 8 games into the 2nd season, I've won every game bar the 2nd leg of the Supacopa Cup to Barca, but I won that on aggregate anyway. The only downside to this tactic is the amount of injuries I've had since using it. In the 8 games this season, I've gotten at least 1 injury every match, with 6 major and 6 minor ones (12 total); going to see what happens if I take of "Get Stuck In", hopefully it helps.
Thanks again
