I heard passing the ball around etc between your own players can help, so I do that for a while, but any other tips? This game is so bloody boring! 🙁
Also, use techniques a lot. You get exp just for using techniques for some reason, even if the end result of your pass/tackle/shot is rubbish. So just use techs as much as possible.
And basically just hog the ball-the more possession you have, the more experience you get, and thus the less the opposing team gets, so just passing the ball around even if you never come close to the goals will improve your team.
