High urgency ! A request to add gamepad or keyboard selection in online matches.

I play the game on PC and I have a gamepad. Although I make my selections in the main menu with the gamepad, when I enter an online match (Rivals, Championships, or Rush), the game forces me to use the keyboard. I want to play with the gamepad and I can't change it during the match. Because of this, I have to leave the game, and this results in a loss for me. Please add a menu that allows me to choose between keyboard and gamepad during gameplay. Because this is very frustrating. I think it needs to be added urgently. If it's not specifically designed to be added, I'd like to know why. 

Thank you...
