Hello ,

Here you can discuss all the matches played and that you would like to understand (or for others to complain), to talk about the match you just have to put the link and ask for explanations.

All the other subjects of debate of match will be closed in order to have only one, in the same way any comment of attack (of club, agreement, personality, success ect ....) will be sanctioned without additional warning.

Enjoy the match debates with all due respect for each other's opinions.

Personally, I haven't complained for a long time about 4 to 6 inconsistent results per season, it's part of the acceptable randomness.
But what annoys me most about matches is that the slightest change (tactics, instructions, player substitutions) causes your stats to drop drastically.
Even if it's temporary, it's unbearable.
Swap an MDG and an MDD and you're down 100 stats for 10 minutes!
Frankly, it doesn't encourage you to follow the matches actively.
The worst thing is to look at the opponent's collective instructions for a few seconds and sometimes you're down 200 or 300 points. What a load of rubbish!
If there's one thing we urgently need to change, it's that. As for the rest, we can live with it.

Yes, I also get some pretty inconsistent results, 4 to 7 times a season I take them into account. Indeed, what seems to me very inconsistent are the changes of players even stronger than the one replaced you lose a lot of stats between 50 and 100 points or you get a goal. I think something needs to be changed here because I don't make changes or even change tactics any more.

Effectively, the excessive loss of stat points during the slightest change of players or tactics is staggering and as myforsans said above, sometimes you lose more than 100 stat points just by looking at the opponent's style instructions for a few seconds, which is really inconsistent and absurd, Aymeric Si tu passe par là stp fait quelques choses pour cette partie tactique du jeu car ont à plus envie de toucher à quoi sa que ce soit tellement ont peur de ce faire contré pour quelques secondes passé à gérer sa tactique est s'organiser pour éviter à l'adversaire d'avoir le dessus sur une partie du jeu.

Back then the problem was guys who were 'too into it' and moving every minute, now it's the other way round.

Personally, I don't think it's a bad idea, because if you're going to move, you have to move well.
What's more, if you cause problems for your opponents, they too will have to change something and lose stats.

Personally, I change tactics depending on the opponent.
If the opponent is afk, once you've found the right tactics, you can't touch them.
If the opponent is present, if he moves, he also suffers the loss of stats so ... it's the same thing.
If the opponent is present but doesn't touch anything, then as with an afk, you need to take control and not touch it again until the opponent moves first.

As far as I'm concerned, the mdm has been totally broken for a long time now, and the results are the fruit of chance. I'm convinced I'm right and it's been obvious for a long time, no need to be blind.

Speaking of changing stats... here's the thing about changing from light PH to normal PH:

And here's the compensation:

I think it's really fair for such a small change!

After that, I'm not complaining... but, for a minor change, the drop in stats is crude!
But if it's intentional, I understand, but it's still a hard drop!

What might be interesting is to show us the overall stats for you and your opponents:

• just before your tactical change.
• just after your tactical change.
• just after what you call "regulation".

That way, we could measure the real loss linked to this tactical change, during this match. Personally, I think that overall it's zero, or almost zero. But it will be clearer if you give us the figures.

It was this match #match?mid=6744838
On my screens, his values are displayed... but yes, not the front one, I admit.

After that, it's the drop in def that I don't understand, compared to the middle (PH light to high as already)... in short, I understand that it can destabilise several managers... even if I've noticed that compensation also has a negative impact on opposing teams (not on my match though).

There's one thing I'd like to understand about matches: the 30/40 minute gaps.

Again in my game today, lots of chances at the start, nothing for 40 minutes and then chances again at the end.

#match?mid=6686207

Sometimes you just get the impression that the game is buggy because there are too many games on at the same time, but in the end this phenomenon happens every hour.

It's not often that you can string them together like that...

You have to stop looking only at the XGs, the XGs only represent part of the match (I'm not saying it was deserved or not).

Very interesting subject. I think that the loss of stats is a very interesting factor to take into account, it makes the matches more interesting and plays on the anticipation by putting the emphasis on the pre-match. Including a tactical change at half-time with no loss of stats would be just right.
On the other hand, phases of 20 to 40 minutes where there's a bug and nothing happens; in a game, that's forbidden. Not a single foul, not a single shot, not a corner, not even a comment on the domination... we're talking about a 10-word sentence... when will that be?
Honestly, not a word about the opposing club, its star player or its top scorer, the standings and titles of each... even the simplest stuff: "the two teams are neutralising each other"...
You have to fill in the blanks a bit when nothing's happening, it's just text and as it's already not nirvana when the match is live... at least 20 news items per match including the start, half-time and end of the game would be acceptable.
In my opinion.

Of course, sometimes matches without updates or actions can be frustrating, but as some people have noticed, the number of goals has increased since A45 was changed.
I could be wrong, but I find the MDM more relevant and punishing since this change. Before, in an 'improbable' match, coming back from 1/1 down was already pretty good.
Now you can really make some big comebacks.
What's more, if the IE ranking points record falls this season, I could be wrong but it's no coincidence. If I'm right, hitting 250/260 will happen faster than you think, and it won't be because of the overall level of the players.

Do you have the details for the LR?
After that, we remember that he changed his MDM at the start of the season, so we're not immune to the fact that the goal / domination setting was changed at the start of the season, even if he's changed another parameter in the meantime and it's "invisible" to us. Only the boss knows!

We'll see next season if you manage the 260 again!

It's precisely the RL that I'm talking about, as it's the only agreement that can match the fact of breaking the record.
There was no permanent change at the start of the season.

#match?mid=6694568 beautiful little carrot 🥕

Personally, I think a simple patch has been applied. Increasing the chances of scoring. Except for the cleats, which have remained in place.
But that's a personal theory, based solely on my feelings and an analysis of quite a few games.
It's like a race to the bottom.

In any case, I see a lot more 'blue' for low-yield opportunities, and just as much blue as before (so not enough, in my opinion of course) for ultra-dominant opportunities.
I'm warming up Azby, mishatte and Val' on the subject ❤️

Yes, we need to talk about it now, the data will be out soon, but the xGs are nothing but fluff.
No matter how good the chance, you have a 25-28% chance of scoring, even with a 0.01xG chance.

Let's take a simple example, this friendly match dominated by a large margin BUT, 5 chances to 3...
On paper, yes, I have a 68% chance of winning (and he has a 3% chance... lol) because of a fairly substantial xG delta.
But that's not the reality, given that all the chances are the same and given that he had 3 of them out of nowhere.

So I'll leave it to you to imagine the lottery in tight matches

In short, if a 40-metre shot has as much chance of going in as a penalty, we've got to do something about it!
All the more competitive managers in this game have noticed that something strange has been going on for several weeks now.

Hilarious conceded goals, like this one on the left while nothing was happening for me the whole match by over-dominating all areas.

The game as it stands makes absolutely no sense.
At least we had a good laugh on discord. 😂

I wasn't aware that we now had the ability to see what Xg each occasion generates. Given my competitive distance from the game to go and play with clowns as fellow players, I hadn't realised that.
If I'd had the inclination, I'd have done the analysis job! So I'm going to wait for the studies and above all the boss's response, because from the start, what A45 has been waiting for is factual contradiction!
If you've got the data, get it out there - it's your only chance of getting the game moving!
It's your only chance of getting the game moving (if it ever needs to!).

That's it. Another one. Any coherent explanation to justify this madness? This game has become a joke, and I'm being polite.

I've made my contribution this season, and the result is fairly anecdotal given that the title is 90% assured, but it's exhausting to watch this kind of match...

A horror 5 ocassions in the match.....

5xg 0 to 0
I think I'm selling everything

I've sold everything for less... 😅
Strength to you guys

Yes, of course, it's ironic, but you must go crazy with this kind of match

Goal there for my opponent (AFK), I only had one chance in the last 40 minutes. 😂

It's becoming complicated to manage the mdm at the end of the season.

I really think that Aymeric needs to do something because it's getting crazier and crazier and interest is gradually being lost. I don't understand my good results and my defeats either, and yet I'm trying to understand. I realise that it's become totally random.

But no, some will say that we're just a handful of pussies grumbling about the mdm... the good thing is that we see people complaining all over the place, about all the agreements. This mdm is laughable, it's pointless 3/4 of the time... whether it's the score or the aggression...

In my personal opinion, the mdmt contains a large element of randomness, while leaving room for each team's tactics.

How do the tactics of each player and the strength of his team really influence the result?

I don't know exactly but if it works well the results are with me 😉

Yes, we need to find a way to liven up the matches more, because live broadcasts are so often boring...
If the matches lasted 30-45 minutes, we'd be fine, and then some (there'd be a lot more managers following the match, by the way).

But 1h30 one day on 2mini watching a screen that only moves 2-3 times, help (that's 22h a month staring at the screen, please! )

So little things, for example, for a big possession with no risk, "the away team has been stalling for a long time, the opposing fans are starting to boo", frankly nonsense, let that make us a bit of reading at least.

Lol a good weekend to all

Two days ago I was playing a championship match and I dominated outrageously in the first 5 minutes, losing 1.0 and getting a goal out of nowhere. After 30 minutes nothing happened and I equalised at the 35th minute. And strangely enough in the second half I got 6 in a row after every chance. Can't the chances be smoothed out or can't the match engine be more realistic?

So, is something going to happen on this mdm or is it going to remain unrealistic like this for a long time to come? Lol

Cheer up guys

No, but I'm getting used to it, even if it still annoys me a bit, I don't understand anything about the game, so if someone could help me to get some results, that would be great. Because unfortunately I'm totally lost and yet I've been playing since 2011 and I don't recognise the game any more.

I think the feeling is heightened tenfold because we play every day... I'm repeating myself, but over the course of a season, I don't think there are more carrots than IRL.
