Minor Divison 2 - Flipped turned upside down - fathands3k - 2026-05-01
This year is slowing turning into a transitional year for the players of Seoul. Despite their best efforts they just can't seem to get on any run of form and languish bottom of the table after 6 matches.
With 3 points from 6 matches, 9 goals scored and 16 goals conceded, it's clear they are being carved open too easily and not scoring enough goals. Easy to diagnose, tough to fix. So we thought we'd do a similar albeit smaller dive in to the teams of the Minor 2nd Division and see what really is going on. In the below table we will see each team and their total TPE when adding the top 11 players in their squad, the average per player and what position this equates to within the league table:
Inter London
8227 Total TPE
747.91 TPE per player
1st
Cairo City
6872 Total TPE
624.73 TPE per player
2nd
CS Rova Mpanjaka
9309 Total TPE
846.27 TPE per player
3rd
Athenai FC
7244 Total TPE
658.55 TPE per player
4th
Montréal United
9012 Total TPE
819.27 TPE per player
5th
Seoul MFC
9936 Total TPE
903.27 TPE per player
6th
So based on this information and based on who has the most TPE the table SHOULD look like this if we rank it on who has the "best" players:
1st: Seoul MFC (Actual - 6th)
2nd: CS Rosa Mpanjaka (Actual - 3rd)
3rd: Montréal United (Actual - 5th)
4th: London United (Actual - 1st)
5th: Athénai FC (Actual - 4th)
6th: Cairo City (Actual - 2nd)
Table has almost been flipped turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town call Bel-Air..........sorry, old habit. ANYWAY....division 2 seems to be impossible to call this season. Seoul, seem to be getting hit the hardest, should be fighting for the trophy, but instead down in the basement. Cairo City who on paper should be struggling, doing a Leicester (from 2015-16, not this season) and challenging when maybe that shouldn't be the case. Each of the 3 "best" teams are under performing where they maybe should be and the 3 "worst" teams all over performing where THEY should be.
At the end of the day this is highlighting its not what you have, it's how you use it. Making sure the formation works to get the best out of your players. But consider this reported stumped at how well the 3 "weaker" teams of the division are doing against on paper at least, the "superior" teams in their division. Will the season continue on in this fashion or will it start to even out as the season goes on?
