Hmm, I've also ventured into the player traits and with the editor i added "Likes To Round Keeper" - "Tries First Time Shots" with the latter saying "This increases the likelihood of a player taking a shot before considering a touch to settle himself, unless hes one on one, at which point he will take the best course of action for that situation" the part highlighted in red i would hope corresponds to the fact he also likes to round the keeper leading to making that decision rather than shooting.
But as it IS a bug, these are only tips that could possibly make no difference or only minimal... as I've experienced. Also keep in mind player attributes to coincide with the player traits needed to pull them off.
