Description of issue
Not a bug, but something I found surprising, is that Marítimo is projected (according to the choose a team screen) to finish in the relegation zone of Portugal's 2nd league? They were the "best" of the relegated teams from Liga 1 last year (finishing 16th and losing the playoff), and they are not an up and down team, this relegation ended a 40 year run in the top league.
Back to back relegations certainly happen from time to time, and once stable clubs certainly can begin floundering and sinking quickly, but it does seem unusual for a team just relegated from the top league to be PROJECTED to do so poorly. Usually you'd at least project them to do well the next year, even if it doesn't always turn out that way. In real life they are currently sitting 2nd in Liga 2.
I'm sure I could be missing something about what they lost from last year's team that would make them expected to do so poorly in Liga 2 this year, but I thought this might be some kind of data error.
Oh, and recently promoted from Liga 3 and very small (and drowning IRL) Lank FC Vilaverdense (LFCV) is predicted to finish 2nd in Liga 2. Feels as backwards as Marítimo getting relegated. Again, not expecting FM to be real life, I love that it allows crazy things to happen! But I thought these two predictions are so outlanding (and basically perfectly reversed from what they should be) that maybe it was an error
Thanks for the great game!
