The only way I can see someone observing what you describe in FIFA 16 is if you're playing it without having taken the time to learn the controls. Can keepers kick the ball into the other half? Certainly. Some can even throw the ball into the other half (Neuer). There are so many ways to dribble with the ball other than the static movements you described and it's extremely fluid (even more this year in FIFA 17 with the new FrostBite engine). The only part I can somewhat agree with is shots being somewhat random, but having an RNG (random number generator) element in a sports game is pretty much unavoidable. There is a skill element to shooting, but depending on the individual skill level of the player you're taking the shot with, the result of that shot will vary.
