There has been a recent update from Saarde, one of the X11 crew about a number of updates that are planned for the game (as well as info about recent changes). The full list is here.
I'll be honest, I like the look of what is being planned. The presumption is that the tweaks to the game engine will revolve around possession and (hopefully) shifting the emphasis away from the midfield when it comes to creating chances (although that would affect my teams that are using all-round defenders and midfielders upfront for the moment).
The AI for teams will be helpful as well, IMO. The Xpert leagues have a lot of dead teams and giving the coaches in Division 7 a bit more of a challenge can only be a good thing.
I anticipate the quicker league format (i.e. three games a week with shorter training) will be popular among web users too. I'm in two minds as to whether I'd be joining a league like that - I don't have much time on weekends - but if the option becomes available for existing league admins to switch, I can see it being taken up.
