GK Match Rating Feels Unfair and Inconsistent in Clubs (FC 26)
Hello EA Community,
I would like to report what seems to be an unfair and inconsistent match rating system for goalkeepers in Clubs mode in FC 26.
From repeated matches and personal experience as a goalkeeper, the current rating calculation does not appear to fairly reflect actual in-game performance. For example:
- I can make 15–20 successful saves, including difficult shots and one-on-one situations, and still finish the match with a rating of 9.0–10.0 at best.
- However, when I concede a single goal, even if it is a deflection, rebound, or defensive mistake, the rating immediately drops to 5.0–6.0, regardless of how well I performed for the rest of the match.
- This happens even when the team wins and the goalkeeper clearly contributes to the result.
This creates the impression that:
- Goals conceded are over-penalized for goalkeepers.
- Saves, positioning, and overall match impact are under-rewarded.
- Goalkeeper ratings are not evaluated with the same balance as outfield players.
As a result, playing as a goalkeeper feels discouraging, since one unavoidable goal can completely erase an otherwise excellent performance. This also affects progression, statistics, and motivation for players who enjoy playing GK in Clubs.
I kindly ask the development team to:
- Review how goalkeeper ratings are calculated in Clubs mode.
- Rebalance the weight of saves, shot difficulty, defensive errors, and goals conceded.
- Ensure that GK ratings more accurately reflect real performance and contribution.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope this feedback can help improve the experience for goalkeepers in FC 26 Clubs.
Kind regards,
