Crazy rates in the games

[David Grizzle]

The biggest single issue I have is with GK's. There desperately needs to be a different set of ratings for them and there needs to be NO WAY for an outfield player to end up in goal barring 2 injuries in a single game. If a team doesn't have a healthy GK prior to a match the system needs to place a weak older one on the roster and in the lineup. Also the ratings for GK's are just nuts. How does a keeper that earns a clean sheet end up with a 5-6 while one who concedes 5+ can have a 7-8? The ratings for holding mids are just as bad. Though for this season I solved that by having my main CDM being my FK specialist and also using the forward arrow. My 2nd at the position and last seasons starter suddenly came on at the end of season 1 and went from looking like a sure bust to a consistent 7-8 rating and a pretty solid scorer. Now I play quite often with the favored Special One formation 4-2-3-1 with a lot of success.


I think we need to see a wider disparity between skill categories for nordgens. CB's and ST's shouldn't have nearly equal offense and defense.


Finally for this post anyway we need to be able to train wing players to play either side without training them centrally. You see a lot of pure wingers who can play either side but have no business playing CM/CAM/CDM. Same is true with FB's of course. Using Chelsea for example sake Cesar Azpilicueta can play RB or LB but not CB while Ivanovic is more like this games version where he can play RB and CB. Hazard always starts out left but switches to the right and back again often during game play. FIFA is good with this as switching your wingers is an in game option but lacks the ability to actually change a players listed position.


Why can't one game just do all the simple things? Instead we have one game that does A right and B wrong and another that does B right and A wrong? It is irritating.

End of rant for now.
