Help please

Please watch this video and help my understand why this is happening and how I can prevent it.
I honestly want to get better at this game so please don’t just say “skill issue” or “get cooked”.
Can someone who is actually like 1800+ SR advise on how I can get better or why this is happening?

Essentially I’m getting outpaced by players much slower than me, my players are passing to the opponent and my players with 90+ def won’t tackle.

Worst was his player with 68 sprint speed being faster than my player with 97??

I understand positioning etc but this is just ridiculous and is happening every other game…

1 - Hit the post for no reason (not that bad)
2 - 90 defending can’t tackle… insult to injury at end of the game
3 - passing straight to the defender, not even trying to go to teammate lol
4 - 86 Acc/68 Sprint v 94/97
5 - 96/94 v 97/97, he now wins the ball, when I didn’t in previous clip? At one point my player is on him and just bounces off lol
5 - after kickoff - 84/79 v 94/96 - speechless.
6 - his pass just goes to nowhere? And then, same thing 84/79 v 94/97 and I get outpaced
7 - shot is saved somehow and then I hit post from my penalty lmfao
8 - no super jump in the air? Completely outpaced even though we are same pace…
9 - you can see the indicator point right and then he just passes it out lmao

Stealth update?

Anyone else getting the feeling that the game is just… different… today?

I lost just under 200SR today because my players just wouldn’t move, felt like they all had 20 pace and they would sometimes even run over the ball and not take it and they refused to tackle or intercept? (Even worse than usual).

Worst was the throughballs, I even put a lower level defender on because he’s 98 def IQ w/ 90+ interceptions but they just constantly did absolutely nothing but stand still or even when I ran them up to cover the ball, they just ball watched and refused to stick a foot out?

The amount of times I played a through ball down the middle between two CBs and it just went left or right to the CB as if my player was working for the opponent and didn’t even try to go to my player was quite frankly unacceptable.

What I don’t get is I would expect the other team to have the same issues but apart from a few games, it was like two teams were playing two different versions of the game?

There’s also 100% been a corner/crosses nerf as they are impossible now and every corner results in an immediate counter attack and goal…

(My players constantly getting outpaced by lower pace players is nothing new but that was ofcourse happening aswell).

NOTE: I know the “skill issue” comments will come, that’s fine, I just want to know if anyone else feels the same about today?

Positive post

So many negative postsI thought I’d actually post some positivity for once on here!

Finally played against someone with no spinning, no cutbacks (and no fake stats)!!

Me and this guy just played beautiful, passing football and went to a golden goal which he won, yes sometimes we made turns away from tackles or had to do one spin because the attacking AI is not the best, but what a breath of fresh air.

Most fun I’ve had playing this game in ages.

Thank you to this guy for showing that this game can be very good - it’s sometimes the toxic players that are killing this game.

Random stat players (just for fun)

As goals has unique players, sometimes you get random stats and it’s kinda funny to see sometimes - wondering if anyone else has any interesting ones?

Here’s my WM who can defend but can’t pass and can jump really high but can’t header the ball 😂
