Subject: Long Distance Shots Only

Hello guys,

My club seems to take only long distance shots on goal. Last game 19 of them they took. In my past, really the only ones that went in the net are the close ones. How should I edit my tactics to start shooting closer?

You might want to talk to Guacamole about getting a mentor.

That's not really a njub-question.

Honestly, it's not one that i have an answer to either, since i really have the same problem :)

Wasn't one of the recent changes to make it that Forwards will take more long shots from just outside the penalty area?

Below is from November news release.

- Upgraded player shooting decisions (they will be less likely to shoot from sharp angles, but will now shoot from longer distances if possible).

I think he's talking about MUCH further than that.

ok I didn't really mean it like that, I was just giving your mentor program a sales pitch.

I had a midfielder score from near midfield on a free kick. Does that count? :p

You just had to bring this up, didn't you?

I didn't mention WHO it was against. You didn't have to out yourself there :)

so your bad luck isn't restricted to just 1 game?

I'm afraid not. :-(((

in your goalie's defense, that midfielder takes free kicks for a reason. He's a solid striker :p

He bent it like Beckham (yes, I said it LOL)
