Buying Injured Players

[SlickZ]

If a player gets injured and his manager puts him for sale, and someone buys him, is he A) Injured when you get him B) Gets injured first game C) Nothing, hes fit and healthy.


I only ask because now i have bought 5 players off the transfer market, and every single one of them have got injured in the first game they play, and are out for 5 days. Sure i could be unlucky, but 5 times in a row? And its annoying because its the players i buy, to fill in for the players i have currently injured. I seem to have rotten luck :/

haha the irony of that, : )

I believe it's a combination of bad game design AND bad luck.

I have wondered this myself, and I think it might be so, because when you sell an injured player, they aren't injured when the buyer gets them, and there does seem to be a link, when I get a guy that has low condition and morale, even if I booster him, his rating is usually poor first game and sometimes it's injury. I notice especially because I don't often change out my guys, so it rather sticks out that this happens.

I never bought any injured player but I did sell my playmaker who was out for 10 days with a broken leg. Some guy bought him... God knows what happened next??? So I never buy injured players.

How can you tell/know that a player is injured or not? Are you telepathic?

Exactly you have no idea what your buying, the players i buy could all be fit and healthy but each one suffering injuries in their first game kinda makes me wonder. It would be interesting though, since not EVERY transfer i have made has had the same result. But most have been, and it always made me wonder why these players where up for sale? I mean a 18yr old 29 quality st either foot with a special ability, why sell him half way threw a season? Sure he could be a massive under performer, but why wait so long to sell him?

Who knows, it would be something worth knowing though

Unless this has been changed recently, the injury remains.
In the past I acquired injured players from the market, as have others as discussed in the forum.

Then I have been very very lucky to never have bought an injured player.

not related but if u could help me...if we already have 22 players and buy another won, what happens to him? he stays and we can't use him or we simple can't buy? Thanks.

you can't use him until he signs a contract, he'll just hang out on your list for up to a week
