On my save it seems to be extremely low.

I have two players capable of putting away free kicks.

Player 1: 20 Free Kicks, 14 Long shots.
Player 2: 18 Free Kicks, 16 Long shots.

I honestly can't remember the last time a free kick was converted by anyone in my team let alone my two main takers.

Meanwhile players of other teams seem to bang them in with lower stats involving free kicks.

You're not the only one, mate.

Although, having 10 different players from 10 different teams bang in free kicks against you isn't the same as having one player bang in 10 free kicks. It just happens that the team they chose to score their free kicks against was yours.

You must have done something to **** off the RNG.
 
Im having the exact opposite right now. Im playing as Havant & W in the Skrill South, and one of my players scored 10 out of 11 FKs (ones that were shown anyway (on comprehensive highlights))

Same here. Between my 5 main AMCs, They score I'd say about 70% of the FKs that are shown on highlights.
 
James Rodriguez, Illara and Bale put in like 15+ a season.

Maybe you need PPMs? I feel like power shots go in more than ''placed'' shots. James has 'shoots with power' and he scores SO ******* many.
 
And the ones that dont go in seem to come off the woodwork and fall to my player 2 yards out
 
Depends on where it's taken from tbh. Just outside the penalty box is a goal 9 times out of 10 (for me or AI). Free kicks from a longer range don't end up in the back of the net quite as often, but I still score a decent amount from them.
 
James Ward-Prowse has gotten around 5 in each of the first two season, probably the best i've had so far from free kicks.
 
Technique also plays a part in freekicks, as does ppm's to an extent (shoots with power better for anything 25+ yards out, places shots for anything around the penalty area) Also composure will play a part too.

Also keep in mind that on average only 5-10% of all freekicks are converted IRL so this will also be incorporated in the game
 
My freekicks either go in or hit the bar. Very rarely hit the wall or go off target.
