wow, can you imagine playing Pro Clubs and having a sub 50% tackle success rate???

Even worse when you're averaging less than 1 tackle a game, pathetic

Im trying to work out who youre slagging off here and its probably me as I played up front for ages so my tackles per game is probably off and I dont know about my success because i do a lot of slides to block passes when im up top

Funny thing happened on the way to Div 2 last night, we had 2 separate open goal tap in misses. The first one, Yo Soy Fiesta tapped it over on the ground to me from the right wing to near the penalty spot. Usually your player "magnetizes" to the ball if you're moving in the right direction, etc. For some reason my VP acted as if I was canceling and pretty much ran away from the ball causing the pass to run behind to no one. Obviously, I wasn't super canceling.

Later in the game I had TheBigAristotle set up for another tap in, left wing to top of the 18 with the keeper out and charging me down on the left. His player's touch (not sprinting or anything) took the ball so far forward that the kick animation just whiffed. I mean, I've played probably > 1k pro clubs games since FIFA 10 and haven't seen this happen. Luckily we were doing well anyway but that was really strange, especially for both to happen in the same game. Hard to do it justice without video I guess, but they were both not the norm at all.

The first one happens when you're offside. Your player doesnt latch on incase theres anothe runner. The other option is that your teammate was shooting rather than passing

Missing the ball Ive seen happen a bunch and was in last years edition for sure, usually when nipping in as a defender. You get to see the player fall over sometimes

I couldn't swear to it but I feel certain I was behind the ball when it was passed (we were both behind the defense)..

And yeah his player fell over after the leg animation (looked like a missed half volley). It was hilarious and infuriating at the same time especially since I had hosed up the earlier one haha.

The only other thing I can think of for the 1st one is you were never going to reach it so it didnt lock you on, but from your description that didnt sound the case

The second one used to happen a bunch last year when people were holding run when they received the ball or when a pass was hit with too much power.

Either way it's another case of my PS4 not recording last 30 mins of gameplay, I tried to find it to upload for our amusement this morning. Drat.

All I did was pass and try to set people up when I wasn't defending. When there was more than one Parmos club I was the any and basically never scored, that was everyone elses job :)
