These odd events happen because your players are nervous as **** and you're doing nothing about it. I have a young player in my team who has big potential, but is a nervy wreck. When he does get nervous, he misplaces passes mostly because he tries to get rid of the ball too quickly, often without even taking a first touch. Doesn't that make sense?
That's when I either sub him off or swap him with another player in the 11 so that he has a role where there are easy passing options available. In some cases I lower the tempo as well to help things. Fairly easily dealt with.
That's how I deal with it. What do you do?
Players get nervous? how is that determined? a hidden stat like consistency....
