  • No more ai defending you have to anticipate your opponent that simple 

  • You can tell the fidget spinning fools as soon as they say no more ai defending like that's a  good thing  , if I'm Virgil van dijk in real football is the other defenders just wandering around like headless chickens as Claudio Pina spins round and round like a demented ballerina and then spams the 10th unsaveable low driven shot of the game ......errrr no ........that simple 

  • No ai defending is going against your style of play because you only know how to attack. The only real reason you go against this gameplay update is because in the non possession part of the game you use to just leave the controller on the desk and let the game do its thing thank god it’s no longer like that if you screw up a tackle it can bring to a goal as it such be. Just so you know aura defending is not a thing in this game like you beloved Virgil dose irl.

  • The problem is that the balance shifted back to attacking again. Which I personally think is the wrong move. It’s not the most attractive way to patch the game but the community is always happier when scoring is more rewarding and defense are smarter with their covering because it forces inventive play. I guarantee this isn’t the last shift. Once there is better defender cards released that everyone can afford, it will shift again.  

    It’s simply not rewarding again because you can’t defend certain types of things (women strikers, spinners) wing/cut back/pass into Pina/goal type plays. It’s basically how everyone in the higher divisions plays right now. AI defending helped that because you could cover more than one pass at once. 
    Now, we all have to be all out on attack all game because defending doesn’t matter anymore, you will concede every game no matter what. This is why every pro started going with the 451 with basically just 4 at the back, they’re just hoping to score more of the same crappy goals than their opp. 

  • I think defending should not been nerfed. I agree with making attacking runs and AI better, but making defence worse to make attack better is just stupid. The way they Allways drop deep to give opponent space is just moronic. They both should get better.
