How to get my GK to STOP hitting the long goalkicks?

I play a short-passing tactic (which otherwise works very well!) and want my GK to pass the goal kick to my defenders to build up the game from behind. When my team is under pressure and the opposition get a lot of chances I never can seem to build up my own play because the GK always knocks the ball up long and i rarely win the headers in midfield. Changing centre midfielders is not really an option because I need the ones I use for the short passing game.

Setting my GK distribution to "Quick throw" or "Defender collect" seem not to apply to goalkicks. GK's passing (as the rest of the team) is already set to "short" and "crossing" and "through balls" as low as they go.

What to do??
