TwistedTwiddler Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 There has been said a lot about Messi this last few days, he is without doubt football's best player. But one of his drawbacks is that he tends to be injury prone. FM2010 also reflects this (in my Hoffenheim save): In 4 seasons time he has had a whopping 17 injuries, of which 9 injuries were long-term (over a month). Since 2008/2009 he only had 1 season where a played over 20 league games. Despite his injury-proneness he averages above 8.00 each season. So how often has Lionel Messi been injured in your game?

The Lambs Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 No screen shot, but my next game after reading your post was against Barca and Messi picked up a knock. A quick look at his injury history gives him a whole page of injuries (29) up to Feb 2016. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgar555 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Lots. He's fragile. And gets kicked. A lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgreenio Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 He's fragile in game maybe, but IRL not at all. Maybe the game over-compensating for the undoubted attention AI teams will give him (i.e. there will pretty much always be somebody set to tackle him hard/aggressively). He does play with knocks a lot irl though, including last night Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
