Hello, i was in a different room, talking about the large number or 'super goalkeepers' that i seem to come across week in week out.
what i mean is playin a team, no matter who it is, dominating them, and being denied goals/victory, by GKs who play 8/9s. i knows this can happen from time to time, but it seems to be happening all the time me.
some 1 suggested i post in here to see if any 1 has any suggestions as to combat this, if there are any?
Goalkeepers are aloud to have good games too you know
Thats also a bullshit response that isnt helpful at all. This happens far too often and I agree with the guy in asking if there is there anything that can be done about it?
As asmodeus said, analyze who/where shots are fired from.
Usually "super goalies" are merely the attacking team finishing their attack by shooting prematurely (e.g. when pressured, out of balance, far away from goal, low angle shots)
are you playing with a quick tempo, if you are then your players will "rush" the chance they get, try playing with a slower tempo. I have tried this and have noticed a huge difference.
When playing with a high tempo (notch 15) I would get about 5 shots on target and 15 off, but since I chnaged to slow (notch 5), the stats are the other way round now.
Your build-up is impeccable, your intentions good, but you simply cannot score. Possibly the most frustrating FM ailment of all; chance after chance spurned with no end product, only to see your rival march in and finish the job with the first opportunity he gets.
Symptoms:
- Firing blanks: plenty of shots on goal, very few of which are on target.
- One-on-ones: you’re clean through, the nerves kick in, and you’ve blown it.
- Backlash: some other git marches in and penetrates instantly, with devastating effect.
Diagnosis:
- Some self- analysis required here: find out who’s getting the chances, and subsequently spurning them; then consider the following.
- Too many long shots: players are hitting over ambitious thirty-yard piledrivers into row z.
- Too much creative freedom: can cause the above.
- Your players are too hurried and lose their composure in front of goal.
- Your players are nervous and will miss one-on-ones.
- Your strikers are going through a bad patch, and morale is low.
- Your players are being selfish and shooting when the better option would be to pass or square the ball.
