In world football, its never just the striker being the main goalscoring threat as everyone has to contribute. Strikers are the same as they always have been goal scoring wingers are the new out and out wingers now and should expect them to score alot.
I have had the game since FM11. I know what I am talking about. Sure obviously wingers score too, but the scoring is disproportional. Strikers are/were not racking up the numbers wingers did.
Ronaldo and Messi are an exception. Benzema plays wide so Ronaldo can cut inside and score since he is an expert finisher. Messi's whole career was in the middle of the pitch as a false 9. He played on the right when he first started and now that Suarez is here he is back to playing on the right. Thomas Muller is also a world class player. That role they brought in in FM15 practically defines him "wide poacher".
Look at the Bundesliga and Premier League top scorers. It's mostly strikers, solid #9's.
I disagree and since I play since Championship Manager 01/02, I win.

If you can't get your strikers to score, re assess what you';re doing.
I've never had this problem in any version of the game.
Then explain the disproportion in goals coming from the wings in FM series since FM13 onwards.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions... Even though their opinion is DEAD WRONG.
Side note: I also have no problem getting my strikers to score, they are my main source of goals.

Oh I've no problem with people voicing their opinions; I encourage it. I just have a problem with people who keep saying the same thing over and over again thinking this time they'll be right.

i have a problem getting anyone other than my striker to score, played 22 games scored 66 goals, my striker has scored 68 goals this season.. . . . . . . . .
wanted to provide facts and evidence to back up my claim but that would be too unrealistic.

No problem getting strikers to score here, ****, I'm at Christmas and Rooney has bagged 17 for me so far.
Actually...maybe there is a bug with Strikers scoring too many? That many goals for Rooney can't be right, can it?
As a side note, Martial has 15, Depay has 12 (used him up top when Rooney got a lengthy injury).
No problem getting goals here. Perhaps you need to reassess your tactical set up.
