Manipulation of outcome

Anyone who has played fifa / fc for the last 10 years + know that games are manipulated. The best players at best know how to ride the " momentum engine" which basically means resorting to elite spamming or using hacked 3rd party apps for teams. 

However since the new season, the player nerfing has become so obvious like FC don't even even care. I was reset from FC champions down to Lengendary and been stuck at Legendary 4 and 3. Every game they have kick off, they score due to the ball bouncing back to the opponent no matter how much you win the ball like a magnet. While this is happening your defenders deselect and run away from the opponent on the ball to allow them to score. 

Players are slow, will make no runs but what's more concerning is that on corners I can not select a player in the box. Only outside. Meaning every corner is a goal to opponent ( or most likely AI opponent ). 

After about 20- 30 games, for 3 games, my players returned to pre new season moving at high pace, not running out the way deliberately to allow a free run at goal, no delayed through balls or shots to allow defenders to tackle and lastly I was able to select defenders in the box. 

As soon as I hit legendary 2......back to the previous. You are literally not in control of your team NO MATTER who you play until it's decided the chains can come off for you to go up a level. 

This really isn't fun. Gaslighting users to spend is pathetic. There are plenty of rich users mainly  in the middle east who will spend regardless so just let skill based players grind fairly. 

At least try and make it subtle. Now its just sheer disrespect and contempt for users.

In 13 odd years this is the most obvious the ' "scripting" has been.
