What about when they are just like dribbling around outside of the box - do you press them or just sit bad and wait for the interception of block?
Both. Stay back until I see an opportunity to get the ball.
In general you were rushing way too much both in offense and defense. Due to not switching on time you had to constantly sprint around with whatever player you had selected so you pulled that guy out of position and were also rushing in and missing tackles, because you were still sprinting.
And in offense same thing, loads of driven passes, loads of first time passes, some of them super dangerous and lots of sprinting.
Game 09 | 2 - 4 | L | Overall Record: 4-5 | Goal +/-: 3 | Formation: 4-2-3-1
Notes: Neymar. So. Annoying. Was a hat-trick behind after about 30. . .someone who can dribble and has Neymar to finish is going to destroy me. Little highlight: Robertson to Schar on a corner again .

@Absting159 unfortunately I only record goals so don't really have examples of me defending. But this is me playing rivals (~2000 skillrating give or take) and you can see how often that guy changes players compared to what you are doing. Yes he conceded in the end (otherwise I wouldn't have recorded it lol), but until then I basically had no chance to get through. Defense is so op this year, if you defend well the attacker got no chance.
Here a few more examples of me needing 3 years to build up my attack in rivals
This opponent was defending a bit differently, he was only using one CDM (kante) to run around constantly. It works to an extent if you use drop back and move every player behind the ball, but the AI is so stupid this year that eventually you will have huge gaps if the attacker knows what he's doing and is constantly triggering runs and calling players short to move the AI out of position
@Orison Yeah, I think I need to think of who I'm switching to and not just the random person I end up on and run with them. I need to be on a CB when I should be on a CB vs. a LB vs. a CDM. Just smarter switching because for me its random or closest to the player rather than "zonal" defending.

Notes: Slowed up the attack; calmed down on defense and it worked well. Opponent didn't feel great or maybe I kept control better. Was a good game.

Debating to buy him or not as well. Barca can easily win 4 on the buonce and give him an upgrade, but 400k for this card are way too much even t'ho his defensive stats got a really nice boost.
Would you sell Toty KDB to fund HL Neymar? If so, selling nif Ney, i'd have 700k to buy a new lm/lw.

KDB is the perfect card: from cdm to st he can do it all perfectly. Used to have him at cam una 4231 and he was scoring for fun from outside the box; now i have him at st in a 442 and he's much more effettive than at cam. Unreal card.
I know his toty is immense and would create such a great partnership with Blanc, but if i go for him i'd have him and KDB on 7/8 chem at the start. Not an issue at all, but still...

Calling it a day at 8-2 but could have easily been 10-0: first loss vs a guy who had all the bounces on his side and i hit twice both the post and the bar. Second loss was on pens and due to a strange bug that sometimes happens to me: all of the sudden (at the start of the second half) my left stick stop working and no matter the direction i chose it will always go left. Even on the menù if i try to chose a section on the right or up or down it will come straight back to the section on the left. In spite of that i'm very happy with my team and the only negative aspect is that Ney is such a waste as a rm, but OTW WBY and Toty KDB are doing wonders up top.

Paulinho is on Stay Forward/Free Roam and Sissoko and Delph are on Stay Back While Attacking.
Really tempted ti do his sbc, but i know his 2* wf will ❤️❤️❤️❤️ me off every game. So it's a no for me.
Debating to buy him or not as well. Barca can easily win 4 on the buonce and give him an upgrade, but 400k for this card are way too much even t'ho his defensive stats got a really nice boost.
Would you sell Toty KDB to fund HL Neymar? If so, selling nif Ney, i'd have 700k to buy a new lm/lw.
Yeh it’s putting me off as well tbf but that mixture of pace, balance and strength is unlike anything else on this game unless it’s top top end
I guess it all depends on which position you're planning to use him: good/great as a rm/lm, poor at any attacking position.
Both KDB and Ney seem immense, Havent used KDB so wouldnt know his pros...
1st, hasFrenkie
KDB is the perfect card: from cdm to st he can do it all perfectly. Used to have him at cam una 4231 and he was scoring for fun from outside the box; now i have him at st in a 442 and he's much more effettive than at cam. Unreal card.
