On a first read, i don't mind the addition of defensive contribution points to the game...can't say the same about having two sets of chips to play with though, its just too much variance and luck added...anything for the casuals, i guess. At least the assistant manager chip is gone...that's a win.
Same feelings from my side. Defensive points were needed, it is somewhat stupid that great defenders and defensive midfielders never had a chance to enter our teams. Chips were a prized thing that you planned whole season when to use. Now you can just use them whenever. This is another move just to please casuals and bring new people in. You know those guys that rage quit when they get blank GW after DGW in a row and they used their free hit in Round 2 to have better bench
