Ysgol Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Hi all Have read the manual and played the game, understand ability to score goals depends on the attributes finishing, with composure and decisions also part of the calculation. My question is, if I train a striker to have the trait place shots does that increase the probability he will score? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Experienced Defender Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 If your tactic as a whole does not produce a style of play that creates good chances, then player attributes and traits alone will do little (if anything) to improve the efficiency of your striker (or the team overall).

killerkoala Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 In itself, no. It will only increase the chance that he will choose a placed finish when deciding to shoot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rashidi Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 His probability of scoring will only improve if he is given more chances to score. So check the stats in the game. Look at the shots he is having in a game. Does he receive good chances inside the box? Are you playing to his strengths? Improve the number and quality of chances and you will increase his chance to score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
westy8chimp Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Traits affect a players willingness/likelihood of trying something... Not their ability to do it. So if I had a good finisher it may be beneficial to get them to place shots. If I have a bad finisher probably not... Maybe 'shoot with power' would be better... Can't go under it, can't go over it, smash it through it! Context of the chances you create are important too... If your striker is feeding off through balls you might want... Lobs keeper, rounds keeper or places shots... For 1 vs 1 situations.... But if you are pumping crosses in the box those aren't going to be affective Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ysgol Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Thanks all for the replies, all good stuff. Understand the fair point around if striker is not getting decent service (ie some chances in the box) does not matter how good his finishing, composure etc. What I was trying to get at was assuming chances are being created does place shots enhance his ability to hit the net. Logically it should as hitting the corners of the goal is better if you have technique and composure to do it. Depends how it works under the hood though, anyone know?
