JamboSteven Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I'm about 7 months into my game and it appears as though the injury problems are real. There are far too many. It's been a problem since the moment my game start and seems to be getting worse and worse. I currently have around 11 players injured. Also, around 2 players receive an injury during mostly every game. It is making my managing experience very difficult and I'm begging to get inpatient.

mackemforever Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Did you see Steve Bruce complaining about an injury bug last season when virtually all of our defenders and strikers were out injured? No you didn't. There isn't an injury bug, you're either working your team too hard in training and therefore making them more likely to get injured or your just getting unlucky. Stop whining and get on with the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop whining and get on with the game. The difference is this is happening to a huge amount of players. I really dont think you understand the extent of the injuries at my club, its constant. Around 10 players out at all times, when one recovers another becomes injured. Its a bug. As to your horrendous conclusion, I am not working my team too hard in training. I don't whine, I merely pass comment. Let me guess you've won all the major trophies and are the best manager in the world? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherlover Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 If it weren't for people frequently complaining about too many injuries I would be minded to complain the other way. I've only ever had a single injury crisis since CM 00/01. I used to go to the effort of increasing injury frequencies by 2-3x. Now I simply download the injury extension fix every year. But still, I almost always have a clean bill of health. It irritates me, because it allows me to get away with fairly tiny squads (~22 players) without ever being punished. It's like stealing cookie after cookie from the cookie jar and never having your parents reprimind you. It's goddamn disconcerting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike7077 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I've been getting a steady stream of injuries, yellow and red cards since I started the game. With the cards, I don't tackle aggressively and my players don't seem to have particularly aggressive attributes, so I am getting a bit suspicious about that one. The problem with injuries is that, although I keep telling myself that's football, I can never escape the niggling feeling it might be a bug. It just won't go away.

CityAndColour Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 That list pretty much sums up my concerns with injuries on this version. It's not the amount, but the severity and type. I want to see more niggling injuries that keep a player out a few days or the odd week, not expecting 3+ months every time a player goes off the pitch or is hurt in training.

Graham206 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Seems just about right to me. I've played a few seasons now, had one big injury crisis with ten or eleven players out and one small one - not too many players overall out but all strikers meaning I didn't have a spare specialist striker on the bench for a couple of games - and the rest of the time two, three or four players out at any time. It seems pretty close to real life to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan.Morris24 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I have heavy training schedule and not really noticed any out of the blue when it comes to injuries. Just a few more than normal get injured in training by another player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdrawmer Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I'm on the 'no injury problems' list. I've had a couple of concerning times when it's overlapped that a couple of my wingers have been injured at the same time, but not (touch wood so far) had a major injury, and never more than a few players out injured. If you're having a constant injury crisis over the next 2-3 seasons, then there might be grounds for it, otherwise it my experience it's just bad luck. Also, consider quality and quantity of physios, quality of pitch playing on, types of injuries (in games or in training?), what condition you are playing your players at etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jibby123 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I've not had this, but I do a lot of squad rotation and try to never play a player for a sat-weds-sat run of games unless I have one-off (hopefully) no choice. I will wait to put players returning from injury back on the pitch until they have done 7-10 days of full training as well. And tend to stay away from players who my scout tells me 'may have a problem with injuries'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vilks Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Maybe I'm just lucky but I've had no problems at all with injuries. I mean of course, occasionally my star player or even a few star players get injured, but I've never seen anything like the numbers mentioned in this thread. I'm in my 7th season now too and have managed at both the bottom end and top end of the league. I can only reiterate what others have said, i.e. make sure that your match preparation isn't too high, that your training isn't too intense (particularly the fitness stuff I think) and if you have the squad for it then try to rotate a bit. Unless it's a huge game that I must win then I very rarely play players with a condition of 95% or under. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIMN Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 it is crazy, in 1 game i had TWO right backs injured in 1 half.. that is a hard place to fill.there is also a crazy ammount of broken bones.

Fredric Drum Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 7 months into the game, and you already KNOW there's an injury bug? That's not how statistics work. Come back after 5 or preferably 10 seasons, then we can talk. 7 months says absolutely NOTHING. I've also had a season with lots of injuries, but most seasons are totally normal. It's either random chance when you have a bad run of injurires, or their training is too hard, or you play the players when they're already tired.

At the moment, according to Physio Room Arsenal: Sagna - Broken Leg Bolton: Mears - Broken Leg, Lee - Broken Leg Swansea: Tate - Broken Leg And that's just the broken legs, with the season yet to pass the halfway point. There's the possibility that there are many more broken bones to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 The problem with injuries are that they are mostly in match injuries, meaning in general your 1st team get more injuries.

JamboSteven Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 So, I'm now into the 3rd season of my game and the injuries problem still hasn't cleared up. I get what people say about it happens on occassions in real life and sometimes managers are just unlucky. But! This has been and underlying problem for 2 years now in my game and is happening again in my 3rd season. I am currently in December and almost every game 2 of my players have to be substituted due to injury. I currently have 6 of my regulars out on long term injuries and my squad just isn't large enough to deal with it. Like I said in my original post, when 1 player recovers another becomes injured. I can see that not everyone is experiencing these injuries but maybe I'm not the "unlucky" one, maybe they are "lucky" to not be having these issues like many others. I mean 3 seasons in a row, that cannot be coincidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigfacemonkeyman Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 At least these may help ease the pain: - Fixed cases of a player deciding to retire due to injury at the end of the season but still coming back and playing rest of the season after recovering from injury - Adjusted the injury related retirements to make high earning players more likely to fight back from serious injuries - Adjusted the impact of very long injuries on abilities of older players so they won't decline too much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmido Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Made a thread up top but then seen this, another injury to my star striker (broke arm) has seen my injuries up to 11 in 4 games. I noticed players are not happy with the training levels (i dont know if its too high or low) but training is only on medium and due to my restrictions on coaches the workload is light. One player is unhappy with the level of fitness coaching. Is this the reason im gettin hammered with injuries? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I go through bad patches at times but find injuries to be reasonably realistic. In my Malaga save I signed David Silva for £50 million and he suffered ligament damage less than 10 games into his Malaga career which saw him ruled out for 8 months, next game another new signing Jesus Navas broke his leg, I also had another 5 players out for 2 months or more. I just get on with it and can only speak from personal experience in that I have only ever had one injury crisis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
