06: 14,8
05: 14,8

03: 14,3
10: 14,2
08: 14,2
11: 13,9
04: 13,7

And I'm in group 14, so I have some pretty good reasons to complain.

You're in the CWC. Don't complain.

Good point. I'm happy that there is CWC this season

Agreed. I'm in CL tournament. I was worried there wouldn't be one. I was hoping for a group with a noname team but no such luck .

i'll took your luck then i guess...

maybe it is the fairest that you can draw any team, eventually the best team will win the cup. So if you get eliminated in the group stage with a strong group, then you wouldn't have won the tournament if you draw a weak group.

Its written in the Guide>Credit tournaments:
If teams are tied on points, the tie breaking procedures are applied in the following order: goal difference, higher number of goals scored and overall team rating.

Now in Mash's Fussball DACH CUP Group 8 we have a problem with it. My Team is 5th placed after group phase, but should be 4th.
My Club is Pakchong FC and the 4th placed named OT Apolda. We booth have same amount of points, booth have 12:12 Goals and Pakchong FC have better overall team raiting. BUT OT Apolda stays 4th and reach the next round.

Please, can I have a statement from official side.
Thanks in advance.

Vlady and other PPM guys, you have to give us at least some hint how on how fouls, yellow cards and red cards are generated in PPM football. If in hockey it is technique vs aggressivity, then in football we have absolutely nothing, neither in Guide, neither in forums. If you have put on those huge suspension times (20 yellows- 5 games and so on), then fouls are becoming a very important aspect of the game, and just as important should be knowing how to avoid these suspensions. If it was somehow visible from player statistics, it would be different, but so far there really isn't any relevance, and I don't think anybody has any clue, so I think you should publish a bit more info about this aspect of the game.

I guess one piece this is described in rules. you could set agressivity in tactics. but I also asked me how ge generates fouls and cards... maybe all the rest is random... or isn't it?

Last season my CF was the most carded player in the league until I stopped playing him - he still finished in the top 5 or something despite only playing half the year. All yellows though thank god!

Yes, but that aggressivity applies to all of the team, but it doesn't make clear why one player gets a red, another- a yellow, but third doesn't get anything. I believe it is not random- we shouldn't have our line-ups weakened just because of random, this is a managing game not Bingo loto

100% agree!

nooooo not "random"! LOL

Why the OTR Progress has changed to last season so radically?

Last season home win progress was about 2.6 but now it is about 3.4?

What decide in free kick player make a direct shoot or center?

I have player A to direct shoot in free kick, and player B to center.

In few last games 0 direct shoots only centers. Why ???

I dont train this two players skills need to free kick, then situation is non changed. Someone tell me what i cant make a direct shoot?

You can't tell them to shot or to pass. They decide that on their own. All you control is who does it if you decide on or the other.
