I'm really torn with manual passing and shooting on PES
In my opinion
Advantages
Can place the ball anywhere
Opens game up
More satisfying to score
Disadvantages
Makes the game more erratic
Crossing is OP and scoring from a manual header from a manual cross is really difficult
Shot variation is.minimal
Not a true reflection of football e.g. premier league players missplacing easy passes
Currently using PA1 and advanced shooting with manual override at times
