    Well they were due to tackles, not fitness. It's the third or fourth time in the space of a couple of weeks where three players have been injured in one match, to the extent that i have no fit substitutes.

    Quite frankly that's ridiculous. Todays injuries were 7, 4 and 2 days.

    I'm not acquiring more packs and will watch to see what happens. Is the game that flawed that it will injure more players resulting in being unable to field an XI ?

    You guys are forgetting one key component in your calculations, here we can only have 22 man roster, they should either adjust to EPL roster size or recalculate the whole thing.

    Just to note, I think there are more injuries in football than we generally realise - especially in training

    However, the rate of injuries in matches is a bit silly. I've played hard tackling twice in my last ten games and both times I took out three of the opposition's players. That is something you rarely see in a proper game

    Article from the 2011/2012 EPL season.

    Manchester City top the ‘injury league’, with Manchester United bottom | Alex Miller | Independent Editor's choice Blogs

    Take from what it what you will, but the worst hit team (Manchester United) had 39 injuries with each taking an "average" of 43.1 days. Compare that to what we have in Top Eleven ... the 2013-2014 EPL season will last 268 days (will assume that's how long the 2011-2012 season lasted as i'm too lazy to check). They also fielded 34 players who played at least 5 games (including league, cups, europe).

    So a little translation to Top eleven would roughly give - 39 injuries for 34 players would be the equivalent of 25 injuries for 22 players. Also, the average length would be - 43.1 days in a season lasting 268 days would be equivalent to about 4.5 days for a 28 day season.

    HUGE DISCLAIMER TO THIS - Man United's injury record for this season was pretty damn terrible as pointed out in this extract of the article listed above

    "Conversely, Manchester United’s season was blighted by an exhaustive injury list including a ruptured cruciate ligament to captain Nemanja Vidic in December. The Old Trafford club suffered more significant injuries than any other clubs (an astonishing 39 of them), losing the players involved for a combined total of 1,681 days.

    Michael Owen was the player missing the single longest spell for one single injury: 193 days for a thigh problem between November and May, although three other players also had at least one injury sidelining them for more than 100 days: Vidic’s ligament damage kept him out for 158 days, Darren Fletcher’s bowel illness means he missed 152 days and Tom Cleverley’s ankle problem kept him out for 102 days.

    The following United players each had one or more ‘significant’ injuries that kept them out for at least 14 days each time: Anderson, Dimitar Berbatov, Tom Cleverley, Ritchie De Laet, Jonny Evans, Fabio, Rio Ferdinand, Darren Fletcher, Darron Gibson, Ryan Giggs, Javier Hernandez, Phil Jones, Anders Lindegaard, Federico Macheda, Nani, Michael Owen, Rafael, Wayne Rooney, Chris Smalling, Antonio Valencia, Nemanja Vidic, Danny Welbeck, Ashley Young."

    Personally, I don't think any average team should get anywhere near this; the teams in the middle of that injury table had approximately 20 injuries each with an average of about 40 days. Which is a lot less (injury occurrence wise) than the example listed above.
    So if we're comparing to the EPL at least ... we should be averaging about 10-15 injuries a season (matches only) with each injury averaging at about 4-5 days.

    Please note, these are my own conclusions and any simulation is not going to be wholly accurate or realistic (not even FM/CM can be classed as such).

    And rarely a player sent off

    Yet another injury for me tonight - just as one person recovered, another gets injured.

    That's also true

    But then I don't see many red cards in the game , so I don't take issue with their frequency

    Dont sell the 2 * players and just keep putting them on hard training and get them injured... I don't think there
    will be more than 6 injuries allowed... atleast this will help reduce the number of first team players getting
    injured...

    Im gonna try this .. anyone think its a good idea?

    There is an injury limt within the game, so that might work. I had noticed in previous seasons that when I had more than 5 injuries I could virtually kill the rest of the team in training but nobody would get injured

    I haven't tried it again since though, hard enough fighting the other game engine quirks!

    Hey guys! Just wanted to share my experience!

    I noticed this last couple of months that if you have to many tokens and do not use them, you will have injuries!

    If you heal your key players the other key players will have injuries!

    And yes i do agree there must be some kind of hard coded lines to get you into buying more tokens! I for myself will stop spending money until they address these money milking tactics!
