I think @El Payaso like me is trying very hard NOT to score over 10 a season. It's not that we can't ...it's that we don't want it to be easy. What I would love is to be able to be a team like West Brom, use a philosophy 'make the most of set pieces' and have that give me either more options or a slight boost to set pieces to get from 5-10 a season to 10-15 to mirror real life. United has season of 22 set pieces goals in all comps at one point under Ferguson. So 20-30 a season isn't an exploit. An exploit isn't how many you score but how they are being scored, ie an inherent game flaw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevicus Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Wouldn't be a managers decision would it? Depends on the circumstances of the game also. If you're winning easily, sure let the hattrick guy have a pop. If you're drawing or losing you'll want your best penalty taker on the ball. Pretty sure this would be sorted out between the players anyway. Not sure you'll see a manager frantically waving at the side of the pitch indicating who he'd want taking the pen.

HUNT3R Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 My suggestion a year or so ago, was a simple pop up YES/NO to decide whether the player on 2 goals takes it or not. Will have to see how it's been done in FM18. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DP Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Some managers insist on who should take. Others let the player the decide. If they’ve implemented the feature properly they should have options for the manager or you can let the players decide who takes the pen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for example the player lurking at the edge of the area was an exploit as the AI was not able to deal with it and using this method was repeatedly creating the same dangerous situations.

Not going to continue reporting anymore though. In 16, i have putted my best headers on the 1st corner, then asked the corner taker to send it to the far post where my striker would pass the ball to the midfield outside the box to score. Pogba had around 10 goals per season like this. In 17, this didn't worked no more, not the other glitches that i've said previously, so a corner taker with mixed pass and having one good header in the near post, on the far post and other in the penalty area did the 20-30 per season that i've said. But i was in the Portuguese league.... Edited October 24, 2017 by apvmoreira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoxeysTheName Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I actually found that corner takers didn't listen to a single word you said which could be annoying if you were in the 90th minute and wanted to waste time with a short corner and they knocked it into the box Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
