The new update to advanced defending has done absolutely nothing. If anything, it has made attacking even better. I got pacho in the first week of the game and have seen the bruiser animation trigger maybe 10 times over 300+ games. Advanced defending does not work. If pacho can’t push an attacker off the ball while he’s shoulder to shoulder with him, bruiser is still useless. Meanwhile, when passing back to my defenders to build up play, I’m getting pushed off the ball by claudi pina and saka, who have 20 less strength than my defenders. The buff to advanced defending is so inconsistent. Shoulder to shoulder runs should favor defenders, not attackers. Also build up play should not be hindered by attackers with 50-60 strength. If it’s gyokeres or Haaland, fair play, but defenders like pacho and militao should not be getting bodied off the ball by players with less strength and no defensive playstyles. Period. If you are going to buff defending, please keep in mind that you are inherently buffing attackers who shouldn’t be getting buffed. Please find a way to make buff to defense favor defenders or people with good defending/ defensive playstyles and not attackers. It makes the game unplayable.
