Changes.

So based on everything so far I feel like what youve said and how the game is being played are 2 different things. 

AI defending is 100% in the game, players are using there cdms to defend space while cbs are marking the attackers so there is no options unless its backwards which im fine with but when they have max depth your under an insane amount pressure. 

Fouls not being called, to the point the opponent even stops playing until they realise its not been called! 

There is no tactics that can make up for a 5 foot nothing player with 60 strength bullying haaland. Its a mechanic fault. 

Playstyles are meaningless when every small player can dribble like messi. Every small player has strength like halaand and every player has shooting like r9 aslong as they go near post. 

If i want to win a game I am being forced to either run max depth like everyone else and hope my attacking ai is benefiting me, hope there ai defending arent outsmarting my ai attackers, have no imagination in playstyle just ping a ball from one side of the pitch to the other and shoot near post. Use a specific formation in which if I use 1 of my dms my defenders then mark better (does not work in all formations), 

Genuinely feels like your shadow patching the game because iv gone fron being able to play and win half my games in rivals and champs to not being able to win for 10 games. I am playing against the teams, same formations and same tactics every game but just shows its play 1 way or you cant get any enjoyment at all. 

Things need to change because the game has got progressively worse since content creators have been doing more videos on how to use certain formations.
