Thinking of leaving my current club

Last season i played for my clubs 5th team and we got promoted into a higher league, we are now same league as our 4th team.

We just had the first game of the new season and lost 3-1 to the 4th team. It was a really difficult game and I play in defence. The opposition had 13 short corners and we had 0.

There was constant attack and pressure in defence and it was really hard work. However I hated the game because every time I took a 16 or a free hit, my midfield would be really close like 5 metres away and right next to a defender and standing still. Every time we got the ball we gave it away from a weak pass like 70% of the time.

I was really loud and communicated well telling people who to mark. But my midfield would never stay close to their man and we always got overloaded in defense. We were very lucky to only lose 3-1 because our keeper and defense played really well. GK got 2nd highest MOM votes.

My issue is I don’t want to do another difficult season where I try so hard and play well but my team around me put so much less effort and can’t even do the basics.

I’ve asked about moving up by my captain says I’m nowhere near moving up and that they need someone strong in the 5s to keep them afloat and not get relegated.

I didn’t enjoy a single game in my 5th team last season and it seems it’s going to be a repeat this season.

I want to move clubs but I feel it won’t be worth it going to another one since the only other good club is 40 mins away and my current is only 10 minutes.

I want to say to my captain if I can’t move up I want to leave. However I’m going to struggle since the club has been very nice to me and the captain is a good mate of mine.
