Can't play as GK in Drop ins and Rush

I play defender but when i choose the defence position and load into the match it always puts me 9in midfield or attacking never defence.

This was a issue during the open Beta, still there.   trying to play CB keeps putting me at striker

I’ve selected my goalkeeper archetype and chose the goalkeeper position in the start screen, and then I get sent on the field. Same with in Rush ranked, I haven’t tried it in a club match cause I’m not in one yet.

Hi there. Thanks, everyone, for reporting this and for sharing your examples. I’ll pass the reports along to the team. Thanks again for taking the time to let us know! Stay tuned for further updates. 

When queing as a GK in rush as a shot stopper archtype playing regular division rush sometimes or almost every time you are placed as an outfield player and your player also cannot do all the animations to make the saves. this was reported in beta but never ever fixed. Please fix the game it was reported multiple times but IGNORED.

When selecting proffered position it doesn't ever put you there.

For example when i try to do Central Defender it's put me on the wing despite the CBs being Ai.

When queing as a GK archtype you are placed as an outfield player and not as a goalie .. you cannot play goalie because its glitched and youre placed outside.. this game was never play tested it shows how much the devs and engineers did not care at all.. it was reported multiple times even in  BETA

happens the same in 11 v 11 drop in games as well, i've tried half a dozen times and yet to play gk i'am always in attack no matter what.

I honestly don’t understand how this issue made it into the final release.

I pre-ordered FC 27 because Clubs is the main mode I play, and I play almost exclusively as a goalkeeper. I was genuinely excited to start playing from day one, but instead, one of the first things I experienced was selecting GK in 11v11 Drop-In, waiting for matchmaking, and then loading into the match only to find myself playing CM or another outfield position.

I select goalkeeper because I WANT TO PLAY GOALKEEPER. I don’t want the game randomly deciding my position for me after I’ve already selected GK.

For someone who mainly plays goalkeeper, this isn’t a small inconvenience. It basically ruins the entire purpose of 11v11 Drop-In. I bought the game early to enjoy Clubs, not to repeatedly leave matches because the game refuses to put me in the position I selected.

What makes it even more frustrating is that the game has just launched. Players who pre-ordered specifically to get early access should not be spending their first days dealing with something as basic as the game ignoring their selected position.

Please investigate this as soon as possible. Goalkeeper players should be able to select GK, enter matchmaking, and actually play GK. It really should be that simple.

Right now, this bug is completely killing my enjoyment of Clubs.

I paid over £90 for FC 27, and the only reason I bought it was to play as a goalkeeper. At the moment, I cannot reliably do that in Rush or 11v11 Drop-In.

I have the Shot Stopper archetype selected, but Rush keeps placing me outfield. It put me in goal for one match, then outfield the next. I also cannot get into the goalkeeper position in 11v11 Drop-In.

Why am I being assigned an outfield position when I have specifically selected a goalkeeper build? There needs to be a clear way to queue as a goalkeeper and remain in that position, even if that means waiting longer for a match.

Can someone from EA please clarify:

Is this a bug, or is this how matchmaking is intended to work?

How do I specifically queue as a goalkeeper in Rush and 11v11 Drop-In?

If this is a known issue, when will it be fixed?

I am incredibly frustrated. I have spent over £90 to play a specific position, and I am being put into matches where I cannot play it. That is unacceptable.

I would appreciate a clear answer and a working solution. If playing goalkeeper in these modes is not reliably supported, I want to know what refund options are available.
