Goalkeepers with tackle hard??

by mmigueis, Nov 30, 2024

I have a question for the top tactic makers: why are you convinced that having goalkeepers with PI “tackle harder” is best?? 🤣

Given the amount of uncertainty (“RNG”) in tactic testing in FM and the few occasions in game that a keeper would perform a tackle, i highly doubt that any tests would be able to accurately detect whether GK with tackle harder is better than without it…. I suspect everyone just uses it because top tactics use tackle harder in all other positions, so why not for gks too. But maybe there is more to it that I haven’t seen 😄

@dzek had some numbers on this and indeed it does seem to have no effect. I do it because it's fun to think about goalkeepers two-footing people

While I agree that we can't measure GKs for whether the "Tackle Harder" PI affects them, it doesn't seem to actually do anything. I wonder why SI added this PI to the GKs.

@mmigueis, you can find those tests here.

EDIT: In the meantime I have also looked at the 'Take More Risks' PI (with and without) and I have not found anything that should be announced.

I added to BEOWULF in FM16 to see who copied tactics
