Being able to recognize this and anticipate when it's going to happen will help your club get in better position to stop these shots.
This isn't saying the game is perfect by any means. I'm pretty frustrated with defending the same meta play over and over again, but what you're describing can be defended. You even mention that other teams are scoring on you, but you're not able to score on them. This sounds like your opponents are finding gaps in your defense and are exploiting that.
Word of advice aljo, you always come off demeaning because you say something like "well I didn't have any problem getting this and that to work right" but you rarely offer clear insight to how it's supposed to work out how to properly do something in game control wise. You speak directly to the dev team. You know how things are supposed to work as opposed to how a customer feels or thinks they should work, and without clarification and insight into what you know, most times you come off as kind of a * man. Just being real with you.
No joke. Go read Twitter or reddit. People legit think you're not helpful and just downright rude. I'm not saying this to harp on you but instead to show you why there is animosity. You're perceived as a pretentious know it all who constantly trips on his own ego. Please don't axe me. This is legit constructive feedback on our interactions with you as an EA employee, and I'm telling you that you come off unprofessional and rude to many people. Hope this helps. Honestly.

It's blatantly obvious when you compare it to how other mods and CM's speak.
