In my last game Yu Thí caused a forced fumble against Jedi Knights. However in the player stats fumbles (caused) it is 0. Surely this should display (1).

Hope this helps.

He forced a fumble but did not caused a fumble :-)

Causing a fumble means in the player's stats that the player dropped the ball, not that he forced an opponent to drop the ball so everything seems to be correct here.

I guess there is a problem with the english here a little...

'Forced' is close in meaning to 'caused'..... I agree with the OP in a sense, as if you 'cause' a fumble, the natural english meaning is to believe that you are the defensive player causing the ball to come out.

Any suggestions how this could be make more clear?

Maybe remain the 'Forced fumbles' for the event when a player is responsible for an opponent to drop the ball
and simply say 'Fumbles' (remove the 'Caused') for the event a player dropped the ball?
Would that make more sense? Any other ideas by any English native-speakers?

As I've said before in other fumble stat threads.... for offensive players, the 2 recorded stats tend to be:

Fumbles - how many times the player fumbled the ball
Fumbles Lost - how many times the opposition recover the ball
