AI teammates no longer press when holding right bumper

Product: EA SPORTS FC 24
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox One
What is your Gamertag/PSN ID/Switch ID? thewolf6709
Which mode has this happened in? Career Mode
Which part of the mode? Manager Career
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? play a match in manager career and lock to a single player. press the right bumper when defending to instruct a teammate to press the opposition
What happens when the bug occurs? AI teammates no longer close down the opposition players when the right bumper is held. until recently, a green meter would appear over the teammate's head to indicate pressing energy, but now nothing happens and the opposition just carries the ball into the final third unchallenged while AI teammates back off or don't even attempt to defend
What should be happening instead? when holding down the right bumper, a meter should appear over AI teammates' heads to indicate defensive energy while they press the opposition

anyone else notice the right bumper no longer instructs AI teammates to close down the opposition? until a few weeks ago, when locking to a player in a career mode match, holding down the right bumper when defending would get one of your AI teammates to close down the ball, but it no longer does anything

    update: so it looks like the button to instruct your AI teammates to press was changed from RB (xbox one) to B. this is just dumb, as my teammates will regularly take a shot after the opponent technically loses possession, because i'm holding down B to get them to press. why make this change?
