The nerf to controlled sprint seems to have exposed a lot of the community and their go to way of attacking. Now that it takes skill to move up the pitch at a fast pace, the defensive side of the game should match.

The defensive AI after patch 1.0.2

Improved positioning of players when playing with low defensive depth so that they’re not pushing too high up the pitch.

Center Backs are now less likely to run wide when marking central attackers.

And probably a few more changes afterwards contribute to the feeling of some being un able to attack.

Reducing or completely reverting most of if not all changes to the defensive AI made after early access would completely balance out both sides of the game or at least have it in a better state than it is now.

The best version of the game could be 1 or 2 updates away.

Focusing on this will completely balance the game.

It's the only sensible patch that could come out. Anything else would be even worse for the game.

Even more people today are just playing defensive counter attack football.

I'd be perfectly fine with it if they actually had to defend themselves and not rely on the AI. This is just as pointless to play as fc25 was. I have more fun playing against world class squad battles. Atleast they try football sometimes.

Nerf the defensive AI and make the game truly competitive

Great work EA listening to the community and not just the sweats. Good update. A step in the right direction. But pls fix fidget spinners next.
Fidget sppining is still way too op and unrealistic. Defending against that is still impossible as it has been nerfed to the ground.

Now nxt step is finding a way to nerf the fidget spinners so that defenders have a fair n equal opportunity.

Dribbling is still op and the defense is unable to keep up.
Current state only streamers n sweats keep abusing the left stick mechanic and others is interested to play.
