You can't be serious about your post Pro Keepers this year is the hardest position within the whole game with many bugs at the beginning of release a lot better now but still got bugs your issue is learn how to pass the ball
Also what they do need to fix is bot keepers because they're actually shocking in all game modes and if you're struggling to score past them as well practise mode
Sorry if this offends you but really you can't be serious pro keepers have so many issues what need addressing
Thanks for taking the time to reply, I genuinely appreciate the feedback.
But yes, I’m absolutely serious about what I wrote. I never said manual goalkeeper is an easy role — I actually agree with you that it’s one of the hardest and that it had (and still has) several bugs. That’s not the point.
The issue is balance.
Right now, even a medium-skill user-controlled goalkeeper becomes too OP for the overall game balance. In high-level matches, almost no clean shot goes in anymore unless it’s the classic “rat goal” (that extra pass across the box in front of the keeper) or some random rebound or deflection. Normal, well-built shots are being saved in ways that are simply unrealistic.
What I’m suggesting is not to nerf the role into the ground, but to increase the skill gap required to reach top-tier performance and to add a cap to certain attributes like reflexes and diving when manually controlled. Mid-level keepers should not perform like prime Yashin every match.
I don’t know which division you play in, but in Elite or in organized competitive tournaments between high-level clubs, having or not having a manual goalkeeper is an enormous game changer. The saves we’re seeing are often completely unrealistic.
Again, I respect your opinion. But if you genuinely haven’t noticed this issue, then either you’re playing goalkeeper yourself or you’re not regularly playing at a high competitive level. And I say that without hostility — just being honest.
