too many corners going straight over

Playing with the newest 9.3 patch, i reckon there's a possible buck with the corners, though not the other 'corner bug' people are talking about. I've played now 4 and a half matches with 9.3, and in every game the players are just taking a **** with the corners, practically frowing them away, corners that just go straight over the line, sometimes so that it's over the line as soon as it leaves the takers foot. And before someone tells me to adjust my corner settings/takers, i'll let you know that this happens to the computer also. A bit annoying, but not the end of the world.

Other then that, the match enginge is looking good:thup:

I've noticed this too, tbh. But then again, I am AFC Telford in the Blue Square North so my players aren't exactly world class

Which team are you playing as and which division are you in?

I am Braintree Town in the Blue Square Prem, my players seem to kick the ball in all sorts of odd directions, its like they suddenly think the ball has turned into a grenade, and they must remove it from the field of play as soon as possible.

Grenades being kicked into the terraces might also explain my low attendances!!

It's very much to do with the quality of your corner taker. I'd recommend avoiding an in swinging corner if it's happening too often.

I'm playing with bröndby, in the danish premiership, so i hope it's not the lack of basic skills thats causing this. If it's just that then i'll be worried

You'll need good crossing, decisions, technique and corner taking attributes for your corner taker.

Also what type of corners have you specified for them to take? mixed? Or are you constantly aiming for the near post?

Very strange that it's happening with a team of Brondby's quality. Granted, they aren't world class but they should be able to swing in a decent corner more often than not.

Could you upload a screenshot of your main corner taker? Also, what are your back-up corner takers like? It could be that if you hadn't set your corner takers, the AI will choose for you and they may not be the best candidate.

If it's none of these suggestions then try CP's suggestion and see if that helps.

Another way to avoid this would be to have a left footed player taking corners from the left and a right footed player taking them from the right.

This way you'll be delivering 'outswingers' which should minimise the number than bend over the bar.

Yeah that would mean they are more likely to go into box and not straight out .....as man united i always have someone like giggs taking them
