I'm confused as to my teams offensive decline as the season has progressed. I was hoping someone could help point something out that I'm not seeing. The first few games I was getting around 100 each game. Now in league play I've gone from 75 to 72 to 58 to 44 points.

I'm not saying I should have won all those games (although some certainly seem like I should have) but I just can't understand not being able to put up points. I have dealt with a lot of injuries to my guards but I've typically been able to get in enough quality players.

So any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

If you look at the ratings for each game the defenses you’re facing lately are much better than early in the season. Add that to injuries to your guards and scoring becomes difficult.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2).

Also, as you build up enthusiasm, your defense is getting better. It's common that early games of the season are a higher score games due to enthusiasm being low.

Game shape dude, game shape.

Your highest salaried player has played 123 minutes this week. Thats double what he should be playing. I didn't check the amount of minutes of the rest, I didn't have to. Their game shape tells me instantly you're mis-managing minutes.

Get all of your (decent) players playing 60-65 minutes a week, you'll see a marked improvement in their performance once they get back to strong/proficient GS like they should be.
