People paused at the start to bring on a player that would otherwise have shit chem. I've had it happen once so far.
They also paused to change tactics, which has been negated this year by the new tactic feature. Central tactics were strong last year, but most of the really good players were wide. So people would start with a 4-3-2-1 which was easy to get chemistry on, and switch to a 4-1-2-1(2) or 4-3-1-2 in game. You can now do that without pausing.
