Learning prefered moves - "Ask player to try and rifle free-kicks in"

:thdn::thdn:

I've just started an identical 2nd game after my first save was too slow from running too many leagues. In my first save I asked Oscar Cardozo (Free Kick 19, Long Shots 20) to "Ask player to try and rifle free-kicks in" in the Player interaction menu. I don't recall many (if any) goals being scored from free kicks by him, but in my new save i'd see if he'd have any improvement if I left it as normal. And what do you know, old Oscar is picking up a goal from FK's in every second or 3rd game, it's unbelievable

My advice: dont try and teach this to any of your players, and maybe if you do come across a player who has already learnt it you could un-train it? Just a thought would be interesting to see if anyone agrees

All my players I tried to teach this to refused

Same with do not dive into tackles. I wish I could just hit them over the head or something.

Probably easier with youngsters...Atleast Pachecho was more than happy to learn to place the ball into the net. Mascherano saw no point in stopping arguing with refs though!

My guess is that you have to raise your rep to get them to do things. I would think that in your 10th season with a couple of league titles under your belt, younger players will do as they're told.
