Control over the goalkeeper in FIFA

Control over the goalkeeper in FIFA

In Fifa from from 08-09, is it possible to control the goalkeeper, to overpower the keepers automatic reactions? Not only in one-on-one situations but also quick reflex reactions from shots taken both from far and close...My friend says that it's not me doing the saving when the keeper makes a reflex save but I on the other hand beg the differ, I chose to throw myself right or left, thus controling the keeper.

Who's right?

'Fraid to say buddy, your friend knows what he's talking about. The keepers reflexes and reactions depend entirly on their stats and attributes. Aswell as the teams form, morale, etc. The only way you can control him on the 360 version is closing down, and when he is in control of the ball.

If you come out in a one on one situation, then you will control the keeper in the sense that you can move him about and position him. However, when the goalie actually makes the save, it is computer automated.

We can control the goal keeper , just press the GK charge[in controls] then the goal keeper will come into the game- he will charge at the opponent who has the ball. And if the goal keeper has the ball in hand then you can press GK charge then the keeper will put the ball on the ground.
And if you actually want to control a goalkeeper then take be a pro seasons nd add a player you cannot add the goal keeper just add any field player and start the game then switch your player position wth the goal keepers. Then you will be the goal keeper but I don't know any controls to dive nd catch the ball nd pick up the ball. But I jsut tackle him as the goal keeper
