My setting to tackle the "always long shot" problem

[Ronarch]

1) Player > Everyone rarely Long shot
2) Team > Tempo Slow (Turning just to "slow" from "normal" works fine for me, may try even slower)
3) Shouts > Work Ball Into Box (of course)

With these settings my boys' number of long shot per game reduce to average 2-4 from 8-12 per game.
Has this been suggested?

I like the long shot problem.. its real & i get to insult my players.. lol. then again Neymar & Valencia score loads of screamers with that so i dnt wanna prevent it

I've found haveing players with 'Play-one-twos' and clever use of 'hold up the ball' will help your players to open up space to get a through ball into the box.
