League Tables

So, y'all who can already play CM: What are your impression regarding the way points are distributed in the leagues as the seasons progress?

In FIFA 20, we had this "100+" problem, where the best teams managed to snatch an inordinate amount of points, whereas the worst ones struggled to get any. Has this been fixed/tweaked?

Also, relatedly, in FIFA 20, we got this "fix", resulting in the teams always playing their best 11 - which meant that the big teams wouldn't be giving youngsters many chances in friendlies or cups, that there'd be very little rotation. Personally, I thought this wasn't great. Any impressions on this in FIFA 21?

Thanks! So the teams look alright. What did the differences between the teams look like regarding points gained? How many points did the best teams acquire?

BadJohnnyCash

I’ll get back to you on that.

Sorry I forgot to save

No prob. I’m sure we’ll be learning more about these issues soon enough! Thanks again.

In beta, at least, it has looked, if not perfect, at least much better:

In one of the sims, Liverpool wins the Premier League with less than 90 points (of course you might take that to be unrealistic, but as someone noted in the FIFA 20 forums last year, that would be because Liverpool has been buggy in rl), and the relegated teams, too, have acquired a considerable amount of points.

So, this looks really promising!

Far better than 20. The bottom half of the tables teams are a bit low on points by not by much.
