baaf Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 is it only me or do players throw themselves into desperate two-footed tackles WAY too often? every season i have 5-6 players including strikers and wingers who decide to just break some legs for no apparent reason. for example, in my last three games i've had 2 reds for two-footed tackles, the 1st being my CB destroying an opposing winger at the half line with 10 mins to go while leading 5-1, and the 2nd one was my winger who decided it was the wise choice to break the fullback's leg in his own half after 13 mins of play. thats just some stupid isht both players have normal tackling and aggression below 14 so its not about that. it just seems that players don't care how they tackle others.

bigdanio Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Do they actually break legs? Or is it just a hard tackle warranting a red card? Compare how many you had in a season to the average for that league, I bet its not far out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_aLex Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 yeah i think, however it's generally when i'm winning by a big margin so really dosn't matter... weirdest time though was when both my CBs got sent of for two footed tackles within the first 5 minutes...in a pre-season friendly against my reserves!

robertcornell68 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 We don't get red cards in the game for all the really nasty things like punching, spitting, stamping, headbutting, foul and abusive language, etc but the overall number has to correspond to real life, so the difference has to be made up from somewhere and two footed challenges is it.

stevie_G_32201 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I find this happens far too often for my strikers. First 5 games of the season 5 red cards for my strikers all within 9 minutes of the game starting. Carroll first red card after 8 minutes for 2 foot tackle near their area. Next game Suarez exactly the same thing but after 7 minutes. Following game cavani sees red for a tackle on half way line after 9 minutes no red I'n the next but the following both of my strikers saw red before the 10 minute Mark for tackles that did not need to be made.
