This is What Happens When Your Opponent Uses Hard Tackling

[Rubenito]

Do you always use hard tackling?

Yes, i've never changed tactics and formations from day 1

What's the point of hard tackling?? Can anyone tell me?

Ask Stoke City.

[Rubenito]

Haha... And how many yellow/red cards have you collected so far? And did you cause any penalites?

That's another thing, we are talking about injuries now

In Football Manager, Easy tackling makes your team go in for 25% chance to win the ball but you wont get the ball off them often, resulting in the opponent having more possession. normal will make your team go in for the 50/50's, with 50% chance of winning the ball but with the small risk of injuring or booking. hard tackling leads to 75% chance of success winning the ball but reducing the time on the ball for your opponent and reducing the space they have. Meaning they will not have much time to think about the next move. Although hard tackling grants you more possession, quick players will get past your guys when they go in for the tackles, leading to one on ones.

I wonder if it's similar in Top Eleven.

Another hard tackling example

I've used hard tackling a few times this season. The reason I was playing better teams and felt it'd give me a defensive boost. Havn't noticed an increase in cards / injuries but idk if it helped defensivly either. Not suggesting it doesn't, I've no idea.

Interesting views here.

There are many threads with managers complaining about the numbers of injuries they are receiving, and blaming Nordeus. And then we get other players boasting about how they use hard tackling, which increases the possibility of injuries. Hmmm!

So who's to balme for all the injuries, Nordeus or aggressive players?
