Gameplay Fluidity

I recently noticed the gameplay fluidity change and not in a good way! Sometimes when I pass the ball, it goes way farther than I intended it to. I’ve been playing FIFA or now FC for a while now and can tell it’s not me but the game. When I pass the ball to my players, sometimes it just bounces off of them like a wall. Other times they get momentary possession and then AI steals it while it’s still at their feet. The acceleration feels stiff, players start out jogging and then sprint which doesn’t make sense since I’m holding the sprint button. 

I noticed these changes recently as this wasn’t the case during the first month and a half of having the game so somethings changed. Players run into eachother quite often and get tripped up by another fallen player, it gets really weird. I like the game but really thinking about quitting it until the next FC drops later this year. If this can be fixed that’d be great. Not sure if I’ve noticed it in any EA football game until this one.
