I have every CB over 80 rated in the game. I'd say the best are...

Top 5 ( in order)

T.Silva
Kompany
Hummels
Chiellini
Ramos



Kompany is excellent due to his passing. I love my defenders that can play football.

Hardly played at all this week, Path of Exile on the PC been eating up my time. Considering selling Ibra in case his price drops, don't want to lose value if I'm hardly even playing.
 
Timbrad - do you encounter the high pressure tactic? If so how do you usually get out of defence

I cannot as my defence is usuallly swarmed by all there players covering all passing options and my man on ball
 
You ideally want some one to run past him , so he'll then have space to do what Ibra does.

I'm struggling to get team together with him in. I made a Ligue1/Italian team in 4-1-2-1-2 but not sure it'll work with Mathieu Valbuena guy as he's too weak :-(

Long hoof up pitch normally stops them doing that, aim for the diagonal which then takes the keeper out of sweeping up as well.

Tends to work , not pretty but .....
 
i sometimes try the long hoof but often find i loose the header and they head it back straight to there attackers which often lead to a good chance for them........ its crazy the game can let them do this - pressure constantly for the full game without affecting stamina..........

As I say try aiming it into the corners where your ST will run after it , I.E away from the CB's heads :)

Doesn't work all the time but certainly gets them thinking. I play a passing game so sometimes I try and pass it out as well which can get a bit hairy:D
 
hahaha yeah me too - but its very pressurised and can often give ball away......

Wish there was some penalty for this kind of constant high pressure its no fun to play against

Depends on the formation. In 4-2-2-2, I get it to my full-back, then play a big switch to the other full back and pass down the line to the CAM. Once you get out of defence your front players have all sorts of space, so I quite enjoy it!


@Metalface Mark - Have a look at Lima, absolutely class for me.
 
Pretty much everyone plays with 'team pressing', it's just hard work to play against as one bad touch / pass from your defence or midfield can screw you over. Hoof ball is, unfortunately, the best way round it I have found thus far.
