Just a thought here, but of the people experiencing this issue how many are playing with either low width or a narrow formation?

Just like a real football manager, you cant physically stop your players have stupid digs really far out.

I came across the problem, my solution? I made sure i bought players with a great long shots attribute, you cant beat 'em then join 'em
Yes you can. You tell them not too. Thats why they don't all do it. And if they don't listen to you, you sub them or don't play them, and you are able to tell them why.

Yes, players still take stupid shots in real life, but not to the extent of FM. Players in real life tend to be better at deciding when to shoot, and realizing when the player right in front of them is unmarked. They are not perfect, but better. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Thats still not physically making them stop, is it point dexter?

Its not THAT big of a bug, if its a bug at all, everyone else has found a way to workaround it through the paremeters of the game, cant you?

I am Paulie. Why bro, I dont understand why. Just cause there arent enough other options? That would make perfect bloody sense. Gunna widen up for a few a see how it goes. Short and fast for the quadruple! Glory Glory!

Feel free to email me a pkm of a match that is a good example of this. You get that by using the "save" button on the match report screen.
