AI is way over powered, playing games on world class in squad battles now.

Try Legendary. It's somehow less hard. Again something EA messed up (but since it can actually benefit the player, because you get more points for easier games, it will be fixed very quickly).
In Legendary it's harder to get the ball, but AI does nothing with it. They barely attack. If you don't press them they even tend to jog towards their own goal. But it's a real test of your patience to just get the ball.
