Player forced retirement


Recommended Posts

Just read another thread about 'does the game have an age limit for the manager', and it got me wondering, has anyone seen a player retire through injury at a young age. I've seen players retire for no reason at about 21, but is it included on the game (forced retirement)?

If not, would you like to see it introduced?

I've only seen it with young players who have been released, not through injury.

But then the longest injury period I've seen is only 7-8 months. Players should be able to be out injured for over a year like Eduardo, Rosicky, Hargreaves - but it doesn't happen.

I dont think its included now because of the potential legal problems it might cause. Imagine the sinario if someone like Rooney had a career threatening injury in the game? I think that SI would be getting a letter or two from Rooneys solicitors because of this. I do remember it being in the game when it was still called Championship Manager though.

yeah, on CM 01/02, I once got a huge compensation payout when Richard Wright retired with a career-ending injury in his 20s.

It is still in the game. Do a search for Kerlon. Chances are he'll have retired due to injuries.

There's absolutely nothing that could be sued for if a player retires due to injury in the game. No defamation of character, no slander or libel.
