Corners are ruining this game


Recommended Posts

I've set my corners to a way which I hardly ever score as I think it's unrealistic the amount you can score.

However noone has told the oppo this and 50% over the course of time of my goals conceded are from corners and set plays, i've jiggled around ll defensive setting and nothing stops them. In half a season i've conceded 19 goals, 15 are from corners or set plays.

Please, please, please sort this out.

I don't know if my opinion counts as I'm not a fan of football and don't watch it on TV but when I see it on the news most goals seem to come from corners and set pieces, is it not just the want of the football fan to see goals come from open play and not dead ball situations?

No I think. Score frome set pieces and corners is part of football (Personally, I really enjoy watching Stoke City, a set pieces team specialist) but it's really too easy to score on that without prepare seriously corner and your CB can be too often the best scorer of your team, it's really annoying.

90% goals i concede are from corners whats worse is my tactics are correctly setup for defending corners have good defense etc.

60% of my goals scored are from corners too though lol does get a bit tiresome when most goals scored in games are nearly always corners whether my team or opponent

Ball trajectory is a problem, which results in stupidly accurate dead ball delivery (even in the lowest leagues) and stupidly accurate long balls.

I think this is because the game tries to replicate real life percentages in different categories like passing and crossing, but fails to replicate the manner in which these percentages are achieved. For instance, pretty much every team in FM can play a flowing move of four or five consecutive 30 yard first touch passes. It has to be possible because player movement in the ME isn't sophisticated enough for it to be possible to play a move of five short passes instead - because the players never have enough short options. So as a result you get match statistics that are close to being spot on but what you see in match view is not quite as good.

It's more the Ai corners that is bothering me, I can set mine to a mode that I don't score often. When I play again the oppo they constantly score past me.

This. The AI is far too clinical from set-plays. And I was getting pretty bored myself when my 20 year old not-quite-good-enough-for-the-Premiership CB was my top league scorer with 13 goals from 33 games.
