Gameplay player career

This game is so bad... why is it that a player with a pace of 83 and sprint speed 78 able to catch up to to a player with 90+ pace and 98 sprint speed? But yet my 90+ pace player and 98 sprint speed can't catch up to him? Its like the computer purposely makes your player slower in certain situations just to give itself a advantage. Its to the point where I feel attributes mean absolutely nothing in this game and dont get me started on how bad your computer controlled players are smh they play like 3 year olds fc needs to fix its game
