Help defending on FC 26
I recently switched from PES to FC 26 Career Mode, since I used to enjoy Master League, so I'm new to FC.
I started it on 'Amateur' difficulty, but I noticed it was too easy, so I bumped it up to 'Semi-Pro' and it was still easy. I increased it again to 'Professional,' and that's where things got really complicated.
I simply can't jockey or tackle the opposition players. My players basically just watch the opponents pass the ball around and don't step up to try and win it back like they used to in PES. It got to the point where I conceded a goal where the striker just walked right between my three center-backs, and they just stood there watching instead of challenging him. This seemingly happens even when using double-teaming (second-man press) and containment/jockeying.
On the other hand, when I have possession, the opponents don't even need to intercept my pass, any contact they make with my players is enough to make me lose the ball and all the problem to regain it starts again. It's getting pretty frustrating.
Any tips to help me with this? I've already watched videos with pressing tips, game settings, etc. I'm using a 4-2-3-1 formation, the Competitive preset, and Authentic gameplay style.
