Players injured in 75% of games?


Recommended Posts

Away 17.3.18 2 Players pick up knocks 1 out for 2 weeks

Home 24.3.18 1 Player picks up a knock out for 2 weeks

Away 28.3.18 - no injuries - its a miracle

Home 31.3.18 2 players forced off, 1 after i had made all my subs (shock horror) and out for 3 weeks.

that's a player inured in 75% of games and means I am always missing at least 1 first team starter

being a season ticket holder for a good few seasons i struggle to remember a time that a team finished with 10 men due to injuries and could prob count on 1 hand the amount of times the stretcher left the pitch with someone on it

It's not really a big sample size, is it? Arsenal IRL is moaning about the same thing you are.

If I'm REALLY unlucky, I'll get about 1 injured player being forced off every 5-10 games. I rotate quite a bit which helps I'm sure. You could be over-training players or over-playing them or both?

I did what i could with the sample.......

You "did what you could" in this case means you've picked out a sample where it happens and claimed conspiracy. This comes up time and time again, but it's a mix of selective memory and hyperbole. I've had teams where I've played more or less the same starting eleven for months on end, week after week, game after game. If this was a problem, that wouldn't be possible.

As others have said there is no injury bug, sure you get periods when you pick up more injuries than average but others where you get less.

Lets look at my save for instance (A bigger sample size than yours but still very small). I took over my latest lower league team in February 2021 and its now May 2021.

I've played 12 league games, I've had 5 red injuries where a player was carried off (3 in one game) and 3 green knocks where a player stayed on. However in seven of those games I didn't get any injuries.

Out of those eight knocks received in match only one turned into an injury after the match.

2-0 in 45'.

Red injury at 50'. Forced to subtitute.

Subtitute means that a new calculation of the rest of the game is done. The new calculation decides that the game will end 2-3.

Story of my "life" in FM.

I don't think the injury probabilities are off, but I think the injury patterns and the overall feature is kinda off and could use an improvement. Not being able to play a player because a broken finger can turn to shattered lingaments is kinda illogical.

I think thats a fair comment and around where we are atm.

Hopefully SI will review injuries at some stage and make improvements so its a bit more "logical" and has more depth.

i will monitor and record the rest of my season.....

If i have a player 'pick up a knock' it's rare he makes the end of the game to be honest, i'm never told what the knock is so can't see how i can leave him on or not.....
