I'm not justifying it, I'm just looking at it from other side. It would be best to hear from "culprit" his point of view too.
Because looking at his roster, he also has Cuban NT player with same issues as the Chinese one. It's not really broad and he's fighting for PO. All of his starters have tragic forms which can implicate that he's just not aware of optimal minutes.
On the other hand, I hope that NT managers tried to contact him regarding this issue, so it was his decision not to take helping hand.
This situation is unfortunate for all NT whose players are in this team.
That being said, my HOF draft pick also ended up in bad team, because I didn't have infra to support him. But he's not playing there so if I kept him, he'd be better at least for U21. And this happens more often than topic of this post, where team with 6k arena buys 8 or more 10+ pot prospects and just let them die. I'm from small country where we have limited amount of 10+ draftees and these actions hurt us as bad as topic of this post.
I don't see a way of preventing either of these "strategies" other than "Please don't do it".
You just shouldn't force a manager to manage his team the way you see fit. With this logic, there would be no innovation nor diversity
Obviously in the end there was malicious intent with creating 2nd team against the rules with "self sabotage"
