Fouling

Even if you do injure them they can still use their Apothecary while you can't normally challenge the red card. When you combine the chance to get a KO with getting in injury then you can start to have more chance to get your opponent off the field then you get sent off, but KO's usually have multiple chances to come back while your player is out for good.This is why I very rarely foul. The risk is very high compared with the reward and you usually have to manoeuvre your players in a non ideal way in order to get the assists, thus putting you at a slight to moderate positional disadvantage. I also like to reduce risk as much as possible so that it is more likely that my skill vs my opponents is the deciding factor on who wins. Another factor is that to get good odds on a foul you need to spend a valuable skill on Dirty Player.That doesn't mean it is always best to avoid fouling. Once the second half has started, getting a KO is significantly better as that player will usually only get one chance to come back onto the pitch, and by then it might be too late to change the result. Because of that you can effectively add the chance to KO to the chance to injure which can start to tip the odds in your favour. If you have a Bribe then you might as well use it. Also if there is a super amazing player who will ruin you then it might be worth losing a player or two to red cards if it gets them off the pitch.Finally, don't let your emotions make you foul. Don't do it as revenge or because your opponent is stalling, unless you were going to foul anyway. Doing so only helps your opponent, I love it when people foul my players when I am stalling as that means they aren't pressuring the ball and forcing me to score.
