FIFA 20

Spent the weekend grinding rivals, should have WL qualification sorted in a day or two.

Nothing's really changed with regards to defending from 19; same awful rebounds from tackles, it's infuriating...

In fairness it looks like you've only had 4 shots in the box.

This. Having more shots/shots on target isn't always a good indicator of number of goals.
You'd be better of creating spaces inside the box. It'll equate to less shots in total but higher chances of scoring each one.
 
Have to go for it @Quinnaay - you got this.

I'm 8-4, lost a couple of stupid games but I'm too tired to rage and its more my decision making being too slow than the game screwing me.
 
Got beat. Seedorf if mane Mbappe Salah neymar Pogba lenglet varane ewww was grim. Literally dominated me I held out 0-0 and then in extra time beat me deservedly. Happy anyway.

The defensive AI is so painfully bad it's killing all enjoyment of the game. Im all for making defending more skill based but in the process of trying to accomplish this they have turned every AI team mate into a complete moron who doesn't understand the basic concepts of defending. They just stand around like statues off-ball, the lack of tracking runners or closing down is comical. Unless im missing something you literally can't have two players closing down at the same time, the game does not allow it by design.

There needs to be a balance between user defending being important and AI helping out in logical situations, this definitely isn't it.

I understand the esport/pro gamer crowd might prefer this but for people who want something resembling real football it's a step backwards.

I know what you mean, I've been complaining about similar issues to my friends.
Although I would say it's not so much about resembling real football as about resembling fun, for the large percentage of players.
 
Less defensive AI the better. Its actually still quite strong when you really learn how to defend, for example they still block if you get them there. The skill gaps quite large this year, many casuals wont enjoy it if they dont put time in to learn the game and mechanics. Youtube Boras Legend for a lot of decent tips and content.
 
I'm going to build a team around Messi I think, it's nice CR7 isn't the "must have" player anymore.

People are raving about Messi this year.

GG anyway man, G1 is a great result for the first WL.

That team is ridiculously offensive, no proper CDM regardless of what formation he switches to in game (if he does).

Thanks man. I legit had like 1 shot in 90 mins vs his 10 or so i defended for my life then in extra time he smashed me. I'd love to know if its players or tactics because the press against some of the players around G1 and above is relentless.

well you were right and thank you for the advice. I was defending like i wass playing fifa 19 and getting battered. Watched a couple of videos on youtube and started defending properly. It is so rewarding when you cut out peoples attacks. Just got back into div 6, i will be happy if i can get to 4 again this year.


bring on weekend league next week!
