In the last few years I have never reloaded to avoid defeat. I have reloaded to prevent log term injuries. I know this is cheating. Long term injuries can really hamper a young players development or really detriment the physicals of a senior player. I also want to see what the player can do and long term injuries prevent this. Reloaded twice, sometimes going back almost a couple of weeks, when Trent broke his leg and Fabinho also broke a leg. Managed to win everything first season with Liverpool. Ended up playing 68 games so definitely needed all players fit for most of the season.
