[Gerrard 17]

yeah ive been looking at the SI boards... its funny coz people post screenshots just like Bobby's and they just keep saying it's not a bug

ruud the one i posted is actually from the SI forum

Liverpool always was injury-prone in FM, you'll just have to live with it, I guess.

In FM 2006 I always had these periods that about all my key players were out and than the next period only a few injury's.

I always had major respect towards SI in regards to the way that they always handle their "customer complaints". But totally IGNORING this one just plain simply sucks.

I really hope something can be done.

Holy ****, talk about taking away my strikeforce... and I still have the CL final against Chelsea to play. Awsome.



It seems like at least 2-3 times a season I get a big injury issue like this one which just sucks.

The game I'm playing with Benfica right now doesn't have this problem. Infact I've not even had more than two first team players out at the same time.

Noone good really, I tried to use Lional Frank but he was pretty wank and needless to say the end of the season was a bit hard but I did win the CL. Robinho and Bueno were fit enough to play and it was a lucky game for me oh and the red card to a Chelsea player did help too. I cant pull up the actual game now because I am long past the CL but here is a pic of the last fixtures...man the loss to Valencia was hard to take but I had won the league by then and I was playing with a bunch of youngsters and also I had been red carded early on. Does anyone else think there is too many red cards in this game?



I am into my next season and already have 3 players out for 2 months and 2 of them are strikers. The funny/weird thing is none of these longterm injuries happen in training but all from games that I have played.

errrr

Crap training, usually accounts for this...

I've never had major problems if I sort my training out properly. Clearly if nearly all your strikers are out injured you should be looking at the training schedule and make reductions to it.

 

[d3adly]

you got any suggestions for training schedule then?

Generally try and play to specific strengths of the player and adhere to them. I often find heavy physical training can cause lots of problems - so if in doubt reduce it. You don't really want to put this on really high-heavy or intensive.

If a player is feeling jaded, give him a rest and stick him on a light schedule.

Also, when a player comes back from a bad injury - don't put him back into the first team. Stick him on an intense aerobic work-out and test him out in the reserves for a few matches. Bump up his normal schedule to light, then onto medium and then onto full when he his feeling match-fit. This will take about 2 to 4 weeks depending on the severity of the injury.

Also look at reducing tackling and pressing. Putting tackling to high for someone with say 12 or 13 - could well make the player fly into a challenge and injure himself. Secondly if a player has poor stamina - its best not to get him to press for 90 minutes, as he'll tire rapidly and this in turn can cause a greater risk for injury.

of all positions

On my new game i'm well into my 2nd season and i havent had any injury spells...

weird.

 

[rony31]

I think it's pretty random... like I didn't have any SERIOUS problems for a while, then all 3 of my DMs got injured at the beginning of the season in all fairness it's not that bad, sure its annoying once in a while but what can you do

 

[d3adly]

the pattern seems to be that one area of the squad gets injured heavily.

 

[Bobby]

lost all my left mids too, played an MC (Laudrup's kid) from the youth team out there.

Christiansen recovered in time for my next match (barely). So I had a keeper.

 

[Aarfy Aardvark]

I had a run out using a month with Liverpool under the general default training regime.

About half my first team squad were decimated. Ranging from 4 weeks to 4 months.

So, in short - use your own training regimes. I still think that the new patch does little to resolve the obscene amount of injuries during the game however.
