Sussex Hammer Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 We have all been there. An injury or two, maybe a few tired legs or maybe just a change for changes sake whereas we use up our 3 allocated substitutes and lo and behold it always seems like we will get another injury thus putting you down to 10 men. However it has just dawned on me that I have never actually seen the AI go down to a short compliment after using all their substitutes up and that seems a little strange considering all the bizarre 1st half changes it makes for seemingly absoloutely no reason at all. So there it is a basic question, has anyone actually seen the AI go down to 10 or 9 men because it has used all it's subs and then get an injury or two?!

johnhughthom Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Yep, happened against me recently. The game wouldn't tell you so it's easy to miss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnhughthom Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Nice to see they kept one up top, Scotland don't even do that with 11 on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcftm Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Surely the game should have been abandonned if they go below 7 players? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ommerson Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 That game should be abandoned with less than 7 players. OT: I've never noticed my opposition forced to continue with 10 due to injury. But I may have missed it. I had the problem myself a lot in 11.2, I'm not sure I 11.3 is any better, but now I seem to get a lot more yellows and reds.

SSGTroyer Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Part of the reason we see the AI go down so little is that, in my games at least, the AI tends not to use it's third sub until 80-85+ minutes... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I hardly ever go down to ten men as well for the same reason. I only throw my third sub in earlier if I'm desperate, and prepared to wear the risk.

Magnakai Haaskivi Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 The thing is that the game doesn't stop when the opponent has an injured player like it does when you do, so it's easy to miss. I kind of wish I COULD set it to stop so I could adjust tactics when something like that changes, though; if the opposition is down to ten men, I might want to tweak what I'm doing in response to that. Same if they bring on a third striker or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

easternhawk2 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Had it happen to me a few times. Also seen the AI have it hapen to them but in the 90th minute so not much time to do anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kymsheba Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 had it happen a few times down to 9 men the ai was in one game and 10 in a couple of others i think i may have had the ai down to 8 once but cant be sure happened so long ago. cheers, mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjm Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I see it all the time. The fact that the AI likes subbing players in the first 20 minutes doesn't help Edit: in fact the last time was 2 matches ago, when an injury in the 78th minute meant 10 men for the AI (2 subs at half time, one sub on 63 minutes). I was 3-0 up at the time, so it made little difference; we won 4-0. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
