AAAARGH!

I hate goal droughts. I get so pissed at my strikers shooting directly at the keeper over and over again. I also get pissed at three straight 9's by opposing goalkeepers. Sigh.

One thing that helped me was setting "closing down" on the opposing goal keeper to "Always" in opposing tactics. I found that I was getting some rebounds, but never had strikers near. Now, I'll get 1-2 "slop" goals every few games. Of course, I play in the Conf-DII-DI competition level, so that may be involved with the slop as well.

That's good advice, I hadn't thought of that. I'll give it a try.

Do you end up with a lot of offside decisions going against you?

Usually only when I play one idiot striker in particular. But he's fourth in my depth chart, so not so much. It does seem like often the shoot the ball straight at the keeper, it rebounds to them and they kick it straight at him again. :mad:
