I would just give the advice that half way or just below is good for most freekicks, most distances.
Can only score by running, then turning sharply and blasting it at a right angle. Looks pretty sh*te though. My crosses get cut out, my corners get cut out, my freekicks are passes...
ARGH!
Why can't I cross?
I just realised today how steroetypical the intro movie to the game is. If you watch, it shows some England fans wearing old flat caps, and a Scottish footballER with his hands on his head looking on in dispair...
Edit - Just for SHEEPY...it was 3 in the morning...
hoho... yeah I seen the cap. It would be ok if it were on somebody 30 years older.

Try using through balls more and work on shooting from distance.

You must be apallingly crap if you can't even cross, when crossing is automatic.
HINT: Press O when you want to cross.
I can't see why you're having so many problems just getting the ball in the box? It's the stuff on the end of the cross that's tough.
Alternatively, try walking down the wing to draw the wing back in. Then when he's close, sprint with R1. Tap or double tap O.
Shevchenko always gets crouded out by a pair of defenders in the box.
Tried double tapping, tried holding it.... UGH!
(The crosses are great though. Just can't finish. No matter what. )
Idiot.
EDIT: Ahem, stay on topic please. Stupid insults (:D) on the game in it's thread is pointless and is likely to get you warned...
Gah. Friend is a cheating idiot. (I always beat him) He played me in matches that were only five minutes long, held out for a draw with keep-ball, and then won on penalties. The bas tard!
:D
