AI movement is way too inconsistent to defend properly even if you can read the opponents decision. Some times they are static allowing opposition players run past. The game is way too annoying to enjoy.

@oyunboldboldbaatar5519 Год назад

Spam team press. Always keep a eye on what ur back line is formed. By spamming team press you move defenders that are just standing around. However, don’t do it too much because you can end up moving them out of position. Play around with it, you have more control over ur defense than you realize.

@bigfads8530 Год назад

this is extremely interstesting. I've never thought about it but it makes alot of sense. The ability to toggle it on and off is huge. I'm going to try it myself! Thanks man

@danielibrahim891 Год назад

@@oyunboldboldbaatar5519 thanks for the advise. I’ve tried it on numerous occasions. At this point I’m done with the game honestly. Very frustrating to see players pass by you when they could easily intercept.

Fut champs yesterday balls bounce off the player and he goes one on one after I take the ball. It don't happen once but everytime. Dont know if people are doing a cheat code or what

@marktko4974 Год назад

If I leave my defence to the AI they do nothing and literally don't move. My opponent put the controller down today and his defenders won the ball and shielded it then tried to win it again when I got it back. He wasn't even playing. What am I missing here?? Is there a setting I need to have on. Also every player I pass to the opponent has a swarm of his players waiting and to win any loose balls. My guys stand off and are nowhere near. I'm like wth is going on here. This game is not enjoyable

@OhNoGonzo Год назад

something i figured out from doing 2nd man press is if you hit the button twice and hold, all surrounding players will move to mark the opponents players. Has saved me a ton on breakaways where they're looking to switch the field or play a long ball.

@lukejackson4393 Год назад

Solid advice, but the amount of times the game will rebound my tackles and interceptions back to the other player is insane, some games I'll get 1 or 2 rebounds and my opponent will take every other one. It feels like the game is giving them every opportunity to score and you have to weather the storm sometimes because no matter what you do, they are getting a goal.

@NonePlayableCharacter Год назад

for some reason i concede an early goal in probably like 8/10 matches lately and sometimes a second early goal and then i start playing well and often dont concede any more goals and win or atleast get back into the game and come close to winning, i hate that the game allows timewasting, its not like a 90 minute match in real life where time wasting is obviously far less of a problem, if im behind and my opponent realises i look dangerous so often they will just throw all morals out the window and just time waste as much as possible

@uzaydonmez3644 Год назад

@InTheNameOfOman Год назад

So many times it is easy to ready the opponent and go for the right movement, the problem is that the game itself have many issues to stop you defending such as delay in action ( although the network connection is perfect ), the ball just go through my players 😂, and the ball keep rebounding from my players to the opponent players. I can’t do anything with these problems and in every weekend league I loose at least 3-4 games because of this issues.

Didn’t see the response, sorry about that. I have it as a preset, but i rarely use it. It’s very similar to the 3-5-2 if you have offensive fullback. Biggest difference is the FB are further back and the midfield is higher up (2 CM instead of 2 CDMS). So it depends if you attack more with your midfield or wide players.
