Fix Defending, Nerf Dribbling

This game is a joke. Its the most manipulated trash masquerading as a competitive game. I know from the first kickoff if a game is winnable.  If my opponent sprint missiles into my CAM from kickoff, its gg. My players NEVER move that quick or that accurate. My contain pressure is ALWAYS behind the player even when they don't even move. My defenders always are slower than attackers even with 88/92 pace. They sprint backwards giving way too much space, letting the opponent just 1-2 pass uncontested. They miss the easiest intercept thru balls. They never first time pass after intercepting when defending. Yet, either my Striker always just stands without committing to a run or their defender miraculously leaps 3 yards, and first time passes to a teammate. I have 90+ defensive awareness CBs, and CBs are double marking wide outs instead of covering the middle. If they even mark at all. They let players run right thru. You can't even control your CBs if you want to win at all. Seriously manually using a CB is a insta-goal. One L1 tap and direction change and finesse or broken low driven for a goal. Games the least fun I've ever had. There is ZERO matchmaking balance. There is ZERO individual game balance. Its either 3-0 forfeits in the first 3 minutes, or once in a while a 6-5 with a 86+ minute winner. Zero defense. All sprint, counter offense. 

Defense and the AI is so bad it makes dribbling more broken than it already is. I've watched Courtois dribble from the back and my AI didn't even move to mark him. Seriously. Straight down the middle. Not even pressured. That's some amateur level AI defense. Kick off lag into kick off goals is even worse. I just resort to slide tackling and taking a card if they try to skill move off the kick off. And skill moves versus AI marking is the most hilarious trash I've ever seen. One ball roll, and the defender is shooting the opposite direction. Meanwhile, I ball roll and they just stand there and take the ball with a toe poke perfect pass from 3 yards away. SCRIPTED TRASH. TRASH AI. MANIPULATED GAME RESULTS. How else would you give a win percentage in an online competitive game. Ohhhhhh waiiittttt, you can't unless you already know how well the AI is going to perform. I've been leading 3-1 and my win percentage was 17%. Games a joke. 

Also why is there ZERO man-marking unless I hold a button. Seriously, I put players in passing lanes and coverage zones for blocks. And they RUN AWAY after I switch off. WHAT'S THE POINT OF POSITIONING PLAYERS MANUALLY IF THEY ARE NEVER GOING TO MARK OPPOSING PLAYERS. I run back defend with my CM, put him in front of player at the top of the box, switch to mark the ball carrier, and my CM just sprints casually back to midfield!

I'm 6 absolutely, positively boring games with the women against the AI away from Ronaldo, and I'm about to just finish it and quick sell him and uninstall this trash game. At least, the players mark in eFootball.
