I have fifa 09 on the xbox 360 and I am into the season but I am generally trying to practice free-kicks and I can't seem to get them right, i miss and the keeper saves far too many.

I have looked on youtube and found various videos on how to take a perfect free-kick and how to curve the ball but sometimes for me, the ball curves and sometimes it don't, it's weird even though I use the L stick to hold to the left (for left curl) or right (for right curl) my free-kicks are very inconsistant as I just can't get them right, I am using Ronaldo in the arena too so it's not because the player is lalalala.

I would just like someone to explain to me what I am doing wrong surely Ronaldo can't miss 50 odd free-kicks on the edge of the area without scoring one and furthermore having no wall to stop it can he?

Hope someone can help me out, thanks in advance.
