champlodge Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Just looked through my whole Arsenal sqaud and players either have a 1 or 2 for goalkeeper rating, same for goalkeepers with outfield rating! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 i suppose u cud train a rubbish defender in the goalkeeping lot and see what happens, but 1-5 is the rating system i believe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkebab Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 Just curious but you couldn't possibly tell me if you've found any 5s??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr_Man5 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I was wondering that too (a while back), so I looked up Phil Jagielka in the game, Phil is a damn fine keeper IRL but in the game he had (has? - I play FM07 still) a keeper rating of 1... or 2. Is this an area SI simply overlook? Don't they try to find out which players play well in nets as well as outfield? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Back in FM07, i used to get a lot of regens with ratings between 7 and 15. Lets see if it happens this year.! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbokav1971 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Phil Jag is a decent GK but I see someone has already mentioned that. He's only rated as 3 in FM08 though. John O'Shea is meant to be quite good too and he only gets a 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giantplaything Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I had a regen player on a previous version of fm with i think 7 or 8 as gk rating which was wierd for a striker. just for a laugh i gave him a game between the sticks and he played awesomly. i could stick him on the bench instead of a spare GK.

Jimbokav1971 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I remember a few years ago, (when Sheff Utd went on 2 good runs in the Cups), well Warnock refused to put a GK on the bench. Ohil Jag wasn't even the 1st or 2nd choice outfield player to go in goal. 1st choice if the GK got injured or carded, was Paul Peschisolido, (or however you spell it). He was tiny but an excellent GK. I can't remember who the 2nd choice was, but it still wasn't Phil Jag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
postal postie Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 does it really matter? you'd be mad to put a outfield player in goal and i can't really see there being that much different between the out field players in terms of keeper ability. i remember in previuos versions you could filter outfield players by their keeper stats from the player search screen. whether this was a bug or not i dont know but it was certainly interesting. dont know if you can still do it in this version either.

Tal_Hides Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I think it does matter Postie. If you get a keeper sent off and you don't happen to have a keeper on the bench, or you've already made all your subs then you are forced to put an outfield player in nets. The problem is that no outfield players will put in a decent performance in nets, whereas in reality some players are decent keepers who will go in nets for a bit in training just for a laugh; I read an interview somewhere that Rooney does that. I accept that you wouldn't want to start an outfield player in nets, but it seems that if you are forced to put one in for the last 15-20mins you are guaranteed to concede a goal if your opponents get a shot on target. This is what irritates me, outfield players know how to tackle and how to close down, so at the very least they would be able to come rushing out and block a striker, or make saves that are hit close to them. Ok, you don't expect him to be a super keeper, or to save everything, but it would be a lot more realistic if some outfield players actually had enough ability to occassionally save a shot! Usually the reason people are no good in goal is that they can't command their area, claim crosses etc. Shot stopping is simply about reactions and reflexes, so outfield players should be a lot better than they are in game.

Jimbokav1971 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I think it matters too. Playing in N,Ireland, I only have 3 sub positions available and never use a Gl so if he gets injured or sent off it's an outfield player I have to use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
