I'm not sure if it's changed quite as much as you'd hope, I did hit a few terrible shots between the post and the corner still - but I did score more than I would usually, without a doubt (playing FIFA 09 now confirms that, although I only managed one game before the lack of movement compared to the builds of 10 we played killed it for me).Sounds promising. I also found 09 shooting on full manual to be difficult to the point where it felt out of balance with the rest of the game on manual. I always felt that manual shooting needed to be recalibrated in a way where, if, for example, you were standing on the penalty spot, aiming at 45 degrees didn't mean you'd shoot half way between the centre of goal and the corner flag, but half way between centre of goal and a point at perhaps just inside the post. That would give far more opportunity to subtley pick a range of angles to shoot at.
Like I said, I can't tell you exactly what it was that was making me score more goals on manual - a change in the mechanics, stats coming into account more, I really don't know. But something was different, definitely, otherwise I would only have scored one goal all day...
