Magical A.I keepers vs Failed used keepers.

[fat joe]

Has anyone else noticed that once an A.I keeper gets to a rating of 7.0 or higher in a game it becomes almost impossible to score, regardless of who your strikers are and who the keeper is? For example, I have Giuseppe Rossi and Edin Dzeko up front and even in games against the likes of Wolves or West Brom I have failed to score if the keeper is playing at a 7.0 rating. Whereas I often find that even when the user goalkeeper is playing at something like 8.6 teams still manage to score, even if its a DM from 30 yards with a long shot rating of 6 (this has happened to me on numerous occasions!).

Hmm, i knocked 3 past atletico madrid and De Gea's ratings were 7.2 first half and 7.4 second half, so i can't say i have noticed.
I've played against a keeper giving a 8.something rating and scored one, but sometimes it happens, its realistic, on there day a lot of keepers are unbeatable.

Its not all about stats, theres more of an aspect behind the scenes, otherwise they couldn't replicate things like leeds beating united 1-0 at old trafford, theres a luck aspet to the game.

I see where your coming from with that, and I have scored maybe 1 against keepers that are playing well, and I can understand keepers having a good day. The thing I don't understand is when my keeper is having his unbeatable day, lets say tim howard playing at an 8.6 rating, he then comes out and has a howler at a freekick and plumits to a 5.5 rating.

Again this happens, David seamen Vs Brazil, had a great game but then a howler ruined let in that ronaldinho free kick.
