Players (OVR 117–118) not moving properly + team performance dropped

Hi,

I have a strong squad with an overall rating of 118. Most of my players are rated between 117 and 118. However, after adding the new high-OVR players, my team’s performance has dropped significantly.

The new players (117–118 OVR) barely move during matches — it feels like they are frozen or not reacting properly in attack or defense. Before adding them, my team played smoothly and performed really well, but now everything feels slower and worse, even though the overall rating is higher.

Has anyone else faced this issue? Is this a gameplay bug or something related to tactics or team chemistry?

Please check this issue, EA — the game experience has become frustrating and unfair lately.
