Genuine question about how to play
I havent played FIFA since like 2017 and I get my * absolutely handed to me on a plate online. The main issue seems to be that aside from passing and shooting I evidently have no clue how to play the game.
I pass ther ball around trying to find space but everywhere I hit the ball my players are tightly marked and its always just a matter of time before I lose the ball. My players get extremely easily dispossessed, like as soonas a defender is close they will intercept the ball with minimal effort.
On the flipside, whenever my opponent attacks he has ACRES of space and my defenders seems in complete disarray, backing off and making no effort to get the ball. I always end up trying to force it by controlling a player and moving him where I want him to be which ends in disaster.
HOW do you actually play like how my oppnents play? How do you get you team to keep shape and actually mark that way? I have tried tactics and all that. I have a few friends who are good at FIFA who have helped me set tactics up. When I ask them how to play they pretty much just say "its hard# no doubt but I am at an absolute loss as to HOW to do it.
If I play Street fighter I can pretty much gather that the reason I am worse than my oppnent is because I am not as fast in stringing combos together or I mess up my inputs. I know what to do, but I just fail at doing it. Here I have aboslutely no idea WHAT I am supposed to do.
I mean I can only actively control one player at a time. So when I lose the ball with Gundogan how am I supposed to make sure the other 6 players behind him are in a decent position to defend? And how close they mark the attackers?
