    I'm having trouble making a starting XI.

    I'm having trouble making a starting XI.

    - I don't train the players anymore,
    - I just do minimal exercise (3% and 6%) when they are 100%.
    - Players have full morale, but every night they lose it. I get one or two long term injuries almost every game.
    - Apart from goalkeeper, injuries always happen to best players.
    - I just sub them and wait until the injuries are in the 2 days'-remaining time frame to heal.
    - Then I wait for them to recover 100% and only then I play them again.

    But the injuries are longer than ever and more persistent.

    The best player of my team has already costed me probably some 100 packs in 3 seasons as he often gets injured. And it's always 4 days or more.

    This is an endless battle and apart from spending packs I don't find any reasonable solution. I don't buy tokens, I just collect daily packs, is that the problem?

    Playing for over one year but not getting fun from the game anymore. Are there other managers in the same boat?

    Token mongering your way out of a problem is not a sin, you won't be the first nor the last T11 manager to do it. I haven't paid for any tokens for this season or the last one, but I do not get a shinning halo over my head for doing it, unlike some people who think never buying tokens is holy or something.

    I've just been managing well, and most of all lucky, and I don't expect it to last. 9 injuries last season, 2 so far. Don't think too much about it, think of novel ways to farm or just say damn it and buy some tokens. You like this game right!

    Spending money on things you like doesn't make you stupid. I probably think the opposite is true.....Chill ..... Enjoy.

    Peace.

    Been there, almost gave up and here I am, enjoying the game again.
    I know it's easy for me to say having a 6th level team and having everything the nice way.
    I hope the fortune smiles upon you again, best of luck!!

    About the injuries, try the following:

    - Use your red boosters until there is 1 day left, then let the player heal naturally. I really believe that it's the way to go to reverse the injury curse
    - If you lack red boosters, sell the player and buy a new one. At this time of the season, I would imagine that the transfer market is quiet on all servers so doing this wouldn't cost you more than 1 or 2 tokens per player.

    I feel your pain about the player morale loss. Last time, I used 2 packs to put my GK to "Superb", won a match 7-0, then found out that his morale was back to "Good" right after this match... Maybe his wife told him she wants to divorce after the game....

    The main purpose of the post is to highlight the alarming increase in the rate of injuries done by Nordeus...

    But it looks more like a "cry for help" rather than a "I perfectly manage the situation" message. Sorry for trying to help, I'll let you answer all the questions and decide who can post what on this forum...

    i`v had 18 injuries now in 12 days and still have over 1,300 red and I WILL NOT BE FORCED INTO USING THEM just because Nordeus can`t sort this rubbish out, it cost me more red packs too heal than i can earn #tightass
