jefflackey Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I have a very good center back who has a very high aggressiveness. He performs well, the problem is that he tends to get a yellow card in the first half every single game. I don't see any way to train him to continue to play hard but watch out for the fouls. Advice?

KevMaaan Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Set his tackling to easy? Teach him a PPM to "stay on feet while tackling"? Sell him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefflackey Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 The suggested PPMs don't seem to offer an option. I'm not sure in this tactic having the anchor man of the defense tackling "easy" will work. I'd just like an option such as you'd have in real life where I could tell him to watch out for the fouls or you'll be on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikker Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Aggressive players are a real pain in FM13. Personally I think they get booked too often compared to less aggressive players. Irl I'd say bookings are spread over more players during a season but in FM13 the more aggressive players seem to get to big a portion. All you really can is fining players that get a straight red card. Never fine for double bookings - no matter how many double bookings a player may get. That just make your player mental. Edit: At half time you can sometimes ask your player to calm down or something similar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauladams84 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I fine for double booking (if seems to happen alot) and if they dont like it I tell them they deserved it.... if they carry on i just sell them..... no messin in my team.....try coaching his composure aswell... more for on the ball but it should help a little when getting tackled he shouldnt lose ball an have to make foul to win it back.

Master420 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Try improving his tackling skill, that way his aggression will become a boon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duduric Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 You can fine him after red cards. Sometimes, this make his agression stat drop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccer.joel Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Improve his tackling so when he tackles he gets the ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domus Clamantium Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The amount of cards he gets will be affected by hidden Dirtiness and Sportsmanship attributes. My theory is that you could have a 20 aggression player with 1 dirtiness and 20 sportsmanship he would get cards/fouls a lot less than someone with 1 aggression but 20 dirtiness and 1 sportsmanship.

jefflackey Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share Posted May 21, 2013 Unrelated question: why are a few attributes hidden? In real life if you scouted a player and did your homework, and particularly if they were on your team, you'd know things like their Dirtiness and Sportsmanship.

Federico Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Vidal is laughable. Red carded every 2-3 matches. No way to lower his aggressivity (well I did 18-->16), but it didn't really changed his beahavior on the pitch. Totally pointless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevMaaan Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I actually read an article saying agresion ISNT how badly someone will tackle, but it is actually how often they will want the ball. Check messis aggressiveness, he DOESNT dive into tackles. I think the easiest way to explain is that an agressive player will actively try to get involved with play, it is a stat that links well with bravery and workrate.

That's because it isn't his Aggression attribute that makes him that volatile. Aggression is nice.Bad temper and poor sportsmanship, however, is not nice. 11 yellow cards for 2500 minutes on the pitch are really nothing for "King Arthur"; Just consider the quantity (and quality) of contrasts, defensive runs, tackles, etc ... that he produces in every match. And you always see, clearly and unequivocally that he always tries to be fair and clean in his actions, sometimes it's booked just cause undermines the referee. .... So, I really need to modify Vidal in the db ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake Appeal Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Vidal is averaging about a booking per game for me and been sent off for double yellows thrice, despite my every attempt to curb this behaviour. He has about three time as many as the next player, and more than the rest of my squad combined. It's ludicrous. In real life, he picked up 14 from 38 starts, and a few of those weren't for tackles. Yes, he is a hard and enthusiastic tackler who throws himself about, but he is not the animal FM would suggest he is. I don't know what his hidden attributes are, but the Juve researcher needs to long and hard at them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikker Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 ^^ And that's why I sold him in my Juve save to Real Madrid for ~£40M. I just wanted to get rid of him so sold him to the first bidder... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
