5. Better Goalkeepers
For me, the difference in class between League One goalkeepers and Premier League goalkeepers isn't noticeable enough. For instance, in real life, a lower league stopper is more likely to spill a shot into the path of an onrushing opposing player for a sure goal off the rebound than someone like, say, Simon Mignolet of Liverpool. Yet I have noticed, on an ever-increasing number of occasions, supposedly world-class keepers failing to keep hold of the ball in even the most simplistic of circumstances. Not to put too fine a point on things, but goalkeepers in FIFA 14 can't
catch a cold. In fact, I'd go as far to say that they can't
save money at a discount store. Which is particularly infuriating when their mishaps lead to the opposition scoring a gimme. Even more so when playing online with a friend. Goalkeepers are the only aspect of the team you can't control in a match, which is why you expect them to do their job properly by default, which isn't the case most of the time.
