But why are they(my players) always shooting from the outside when I'm playing on the inside ?

yep.

and appart from visible stats and rankings, there are also stats, rankings and skills for players that only the manager can see, or even can not see, that add to the team's performance overall, or for each player individually.
Learning to find out about which things help, will also help with understanding what happens, or could have happened...

I'm sure that if you put up 10 players, and would ask me which I'd pick for a particualr game and tactic, I'd probably pick an other one then 7 out of 10 people who don't have as much insight and just go for the one that 'looks' the best player.
I'm sure Joe as at the same level as I am there, with some details that might change in our oppinions, but the bigs lines will be agreed on by both of us.

And Joe, no I will not put Sammy in third place, it's too risky. If my opponent crunches, he won't get playing time. 1 minute isn't much, but I made a commitment to myself he REALY is going for 100%, so actually I only have 1 option, just put him as starting player...

Hopefully the comming weeks will be easier

Huvor ... or ppmmp (huh?), yes I think that the score is a little bit forced, especially when you see that I didn't had the best team possible on the field (ivavicius will play 48 min as PG in cup for the training).
But the HCA is so important (toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo important) and your outside attack is weaker than mine. So I think that my win is logical but with 10-15 points max ^^

But the HCA is so important (toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo important)

if you say that to ximee, I think he strangles you :p

I think the HCA is correct. It gives you an advantage, but it's possible to win away (remember the game against LOD :p). So the HCA is important but never too important.

well, I must agree with Sum, it is to important. Knowing Sonics' team, and knowing I played TIE and he didn't, the game was way to close. I should have lost with much bigger numbers.

In my feel, the HCA should be downgraded at least a little...

I feel that winning an away game now is only possible if the opponent isn't realy trying to win. If the home team REALY wants to win, I don't think the away game has much chances to win, except maybe the top 2 or 3 teams when they play the least few teams. But in a way each team should have a small chance to win an away game, even if the home team also tries to win it.

well, I took Sum by surprise with my new line-up and other surprises I prepared for him. Nothing a team can afford to do regularly...

Why I feel HCA is truly to strong is that a stronger team will often loose against a weaker team which plays at home, unless the difference is prety (even very) high. I don't think it's realistic.
okay between 2 equal teams the home team has biggest chance of winning (but yet should still be loosing a percentage of their games).
But the better team should mostly win, even on the road, if the difference between the teams is significant.
Significant, not very high.

To me it should be:
teamstrentgh
tactics
shape of players
HCA

HCA only being decisive if other factors can't be the deciding factors.

now it is, how I feel it:
HCA
player-shape
tactics
teamstrength

leading to teamstrength only tilting the balance if the difference is truly high.

ofcourse I could be horribly far off... It's just the way I feel how the importances are balanced and ranked right now.

uh?

so you mean you can see in front if a player will get injured during a game that isn't played yet??

How is that possible?
