MAtch Engine - Major Bug

Surely others have noticed the bug in the match engine, where a player near goal in a wide position wlill NEVER square the ball or cross it, instead they will ALWAYS shoot, and hit side netting at best.

This is possibly linked to the similar bug when a player is 1 on 1 with the keeper and will ALWAYS miss

It is really bugging me now. What are your thoughts?
Is this something they can fix in an update?

Yes, I too have noticed that. When the player is clean through on goal, he can easily chance to score or square it to his team mate to score, but decides to try his luck with a blasting shot that hits the side netting. It seems to happen more from the left winger, or left hand side though.

Another thing that gets my goat in the match engine is when the ball has run free and is going to go out of touch, your player runs after it, like he should do, but if he does end up stopping the ball dead, he goes past the ball in an action that really would actually happen (which is good that SI have implemented in) .....but by him doing that, the opposition player is then freely able to just take the ball, so in affect you have only stopped the ball to give the opposing team the possession. It's as if the player whose stopped the ball can't react quick enough to turn round and collect the ball. This same thing happened in FM19 and 18, and I thought that SI would of made it that sometimes when any player stops the ball from going out of touch, then that same player keeps possession for his team (just Sometimes).

YEs, this has happened in all of the recent FM games. A minor annoyance, probably happens every 8 or 9games, but still very annoying. I conceded a goal in FA Cup final directly from this.

What team do you normally manage? If It's Man U, then no wonder you conceded from it LOL.
