RB and LB Attacking Wingbacks Role Not working

At this moment, after patch 1.02 that EA just released on the 25th of setember, the attacking wingback roles still dont work properly. Tried many formations and different roles but the issue still remains. Basically what happens is that when in possetion, and having both my RB and LB on attacking wingback roles, they just dont go up the field. Its like they are playing fullback on defend. Many times you can see that instead of going forward they actually start going backwards. They only go forward when the ball is on their side and even so the runs they make are extremely late and out of timing, and the attacking wingback on the other side of the pitch just stands back allongside my 2 cb´s and doesnt move. And the same can be said about inverted wingbakcs, even when set to play as a shadow striker they dont push forward nor position themselfs on that area of the pitch. Also i have to say that i made all this tests with players having at least a role+ and many times role++ EG.: McCabe, Udogie, Bah, Reece James´s world tour card.

    I noticed this problem too, now my main tactic is unusable because they just don’t bomb forward.

  • Same issue for me, my 4-2-2-2 formation with 2 attacking wingbacks worked wonderfully in FC 25, now not at all. Fullbacks stay deep and my two 10s (despite having the Playmaker roles) play almost like two wingers, way to wide. It's really not enjoyable at the moment

  • It is still completely broken, they need to make it like FC 25 wingbacks again

  • Thank you guys for replying and sharing your feedback. I was hoping that with this last update both attacking and inverted wingback player roles would be fixed since EA mentioned wingbacks going forward, but i think they meant only wingbacks and not all the other roles. Hopefully we will have this problem fixed soon so that we can enjoy the game how we want. Keep commenting, upvoting sharing this post so that EA can be aware of this issue

  • Yeah I've noticed the same as well with 5 at the back. I had both wing backs set to attacking wingbacks (attack) and they barely made a run forward. And during build-ups they stay back even behind the CB’s and don’t support just stand there and when you need to overlap they just stand behind the winger and not

    Maybe by having more ppl upvoting they may fix it faster, it’s our only hope 🥲

  • It's nonsense. We're paying 100 euros for a game that doesn't work. It's embarrassing. Today, a latch came out, and again the full-back roles are broken. They were and still are broken. EA, if you have any honor, fix the full-backs moving forward, as described in the roles. How can that be? In EAFC 25, everything works perfectly, and now it's all broken. It's just a shame and embarrassing.
