rcirani7 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Europa league teams do Thursday/Sunday. That's no different to Wed/Sat. Earlier this season in real life City played Lyon on Wednesday, then a PL game on Saturday. It's not a bug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using a high intensity tactic? Like Gegenpress? If so, then your players will be much more tired. In your tactic menu you can see the intensity of the tactic, and the higher that is, the lower the condition of the players in times of fixture congestion. If you want to play a tactic like that you need players with higher stamina and probably rotate a bit more than otherwise. Teams who play in a lot of competitions, like in Europe, rarely plays with the same 11 each match because of tiredness and small injuries and niggles. Look at Liverpool in real life, they have played with Milner, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Fabinho, Lallana, Shaqiri and Keita in their central midfield already this season. And Oxlade-Chamberlain would probably also feature had he been injury free. Rotating is key in the modern world of football, especially when playing with a high intensity.

That's exactly what the top teams who qualify for the Champions League have to deal with. It's down to you as Manager to maintain your players' fitness levels.

Snorks Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Full day rest after match, easy day on day 2/Match prep/travel. I generally have my players at 90% or slightly above if I forget about training anything other than rest/recovery/easy sessions. The longer it goes on though, the harder it gets. But a W/S/W/S schedule is pretty much what I set up in my friendlies anyway because there is room for recovery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
