Is it coincidence that my players get hurt at the end of the year????????

I go pretty much all season with my players only picking up minor injuries. Occasionally I get maybe one player with a significant injury but it seems every year in the last month I get players hurt to where they are out for atleast a month. Obviously it's not that bad because the season is ending but it just seems weird that it happens every year. Is this just a coincidence?? Is there something I can change to prevent this???

To try and prevent this, you can ask your players to stop diving into tackles. Sometimes the player that tackles get hurt worse than the player getting tackled.

As for your situation, I'm assuming it is coincidence. I'm in February now, just won the League Cup with Man City with a full and healthy squad, and after the next two games over half of my back line is down on long term injury or suspension (had to draft from the Reserves, but I guess that's why they're there). Just an example of coincidence.
