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.
