#How do you feel about defending in FC 26?

In FC26, which encourages aggressive play, defenders should ideally be as weak as possible to maximize offensive effectiveness. Yet over 30% of players still feel defenders are underpowered...

Please give defenders a chance, let them face attackers who constantly change direction without penalties for momentum, speed, or agility, without making themselves look like fools.

The issue isn't the defending

#

It's more so how the attacker can turn on a dime and hide the ball from the defender.

It's nice to roll the defender every once in a while. But not every attack. The tackle radius is a little small and we can no longer tug an attacker anymore.

Defensive animations feel nonexistent at times but it really is more of the left stick dribbling in multiple directions without cool downs or punishment.

Nerf LS turning speed/radius by 10%. Buff manual jockeying speed (especially when changing directions) by 10%. Slow down R1 dribbling and instead make attackers take more close touches so it is used to weave through defenses while dribbling forward instead of being a better version of R2 sprinting.

Also, boost defender strength so it’s easier to muscle small attackers off the ball.
