now a manager has to understand tactics & train correctly to make his team stronger. with that empty line up feature, it's just brainless selecting your best 12 players and letting the GE get the best possible result (also less likely to get an upset that way)

Yet that was the only way to get sensible substitution patterns, where you might see all round players (surely all NT players should be made this way) could play multiple positions. There's no way to do that with the settings we have now. Its not the blank that's brainless, its everything else.

Since everyone, including GMs (a shame that they did not give themselves any kind of warning...) contributed to the off-topic in this thread, I will make an ON-TOPIC contribution.

Instead of removing Garbage Time the GE should be changed so that both benches are emptied, like it happens in real life. This will sort a lot of issues, including the Point Differential issue someone (correctly) mentioned.

Removing Garbage Time only makes sense if we get better substitution patterns or the GS calculation is amended. I very much doubt either of this changes are going to happen anytime soon.
