saveAll() does work with HABTM. saveAll() does not however work when
your data arrays are not formatted the way it likes them. Which seems
to be the case here. You have the User key inside the Player key.
That is not saveAll()'s preferred diet. It likes it habtm at the same
depth as the related model. Much like save().
