I thought the 8.0.1 patch would fix the closing down and long shots bug by now. But no it hasn't. Long shots seems to have been toned down a little, closing down seems to sometimes work sometimes doesn't.
Basically this closing down and long shot bug is what is causing everyone to have 20 shots on goal but only resulting in 1 or 2 goals scored. Fair enough only 2% of the shots go in. But if the opposition win as a result of 3 - 4 shots where you had 20 thats unfair and unrealistic.
There is a game in there where Ipswich had 5 shots but NO/NOTHING/ZERO shots had hit the target AND THEY STILL SCORED!?!??! That game cost me 2 points.
Since the patch I lost in the champions league, FA cup final and my run of form in the league.
There are a load of people complaing about the number of shots per goals since the installing the patch. So its not just me
I believe the long shot and closing bug has not been toned down enough or at all. This is why players are shooting outside of box when told not to and missiing targets therefore resulting in 20 shots on goal.
And before you tell me to upload my games to the bugs forum I HAVE SINCE OCTOBER

Patch 8.0.1. Shots to Goal Ratio not fixed - SHOCKING!! SI Please answer - believe to be related to Closing down and Long shots bug Post #39
This occurance is not a bug per se, but it obviously is a problem for people, mayhap SI could make the game more intuitive? I have never had any player convert 1/3 chances in over 200 seasons total (across all FM releases)but of course my tactics are responsible for this. Also mayhap the more 'senior' posters could use their noggins and steer clear of these topics instead of saying (EVERY GODDAMN TIME) 'well I don't have any problems making Average Mcaveragepants score 50 goals from 52 chances' because its the wrong side of helpful and the right side of bragging.
