I have so many players who have not played 20 games for this season. Starting from Natsumi, I mostly played those who did not fulfill 20 games and mixed with some regular first team players. (Yes, Nasumi, your won over me was unfair! :p)
I agree that the last game is a little bit too much. However, let's be realistic.
First of all, it was the only game played after I was safe. Secondly, Strood drew YBoys before my game. The only way Strood can win the title was I won Liverpool. Even if I draw Liverpool, he would be still behind Liverpool by 9 goal differences (after I lost to Liverpool at 0:6, now the goal difference was 15).I have never ever been able to beat Liverpool (three seasons from now I might have chance after all my Youth 10 babies grow up).So I made a choice to get more XPs for my players. Honestly speaking, I did not think my decision affected the title competition at all.
I understood Strood's feeling. But I think you should be able to win next seasons. Your team is on the rising track and Liverpool is getting old. Good luck next season.
Hope it can resolve some questions.
Thanks
