Counter attack tactic with a HIGH defensive line?

What planet are EA's programmers on?

Have any of them played football for a real team?

Counter Attacking tactics are usually employed with a much deeper line not one that's set at 70.   You could do that, but you will be beaten hard core unless your defenders are the fastest in the world.

You will see most counter formations have a defensive mindset and wingers or wing backs to get the ball to.  I dont know who programmed the default counter attack tactic here, but this needs an adjustment.  Its not realistic at all.
