Ea you ruined the game with the patch.

Got it — here’s a polished version with that full point added:

Ever since the patch dropped, FC 26 has gone backwards. Bounce backs are suddenly a thing again, and it’s honestly ruining matches. I’ve already conceded multiple goals from random rebounds in the box that I have zero control over — this wasn’t happening before the patch.

Goalkeepers feel noticeably weaker now. Shots that used to be routine saves are going straight in. Positioning and reactions both feel nerfed for no real reason. Please revert the GK movement — it was much smoother and more consistent before.

AI defending is also helping players way too much now. The CPU is covering passing lanes perfectly and doing most of the job, which takes skill out of defending and punishes manual players.

When the game first released, everything was fine. All that needed fixing from the September release was the jockey speed, kickoff goals, and maybe corner mechanics. Instead, the patch changed way more and made the gameplay less skill-based and more random.

The game was in a good spot before this patch. Please look into bounce-back goals, goalkeeper behavior, and AI defending so the game can go back to feeling fair and competitive.

Anyone else dealing with this? I've also added a clip to a goals i conceded due to this.
