Anyone else tired of facing the same team?

This weekend I faced either Summer Heat Mendy, Militao, Ramos, Dembele, or Vidal in every single game of the WL. Often all of them together. I probably faced a La Liga defence in 95% of my games. It's so annoying and repetitive. I thought the Summer Heat promo would encourage creative teams

They should bring back Weekend League squad requirements. Like, Bundesliga players WL, force people to mix it up.

    I use Ligue 1 CBs, Sarr and Kimpembe . Telles, Mandanda, and Mbabu. I have literally faced a Ter Stegen, Ramos, and Militao or Lenglet in my last 10 games. So absurd

    do NOT blame the players .... blame EA for making meta players and then people needing to connect them due to DUMB chemistry requirements

    There are "meta" players in every league now. People just play with the same exact players regardless. No creativity

    disagree the meta was strongest at the back with La Liga from the start of the game : Romas Carlos Varane Lenglet MTS Semedo Mendy and Vidal CM ... with occasional outliers like Boateng or Sissiko Kante

    Be ready to face mendy, ramos, lenglet and semedo 9/10 games for the rest of fifa. I would take my PIM Roberto Carlos over Mendy any day. Already submitted my 89 mendy and 93 semedo through an sbc

    this
    This is probably my first time in FUT ever when I preferred to play a few SB games to online modes. All online games lately are boring as hell, everyone just does the same thing (apparently including myself)

    I think its a good thing that casuals get a chance to use decent players at the end of a game cycle . Only a few SH players are top level , Mendy is an awesome card you would be silly not to use him and he was free!

    As @greif44 said above its the 4231 that bores the life out of me , the sad thing is you can still achieve good rankings without playing like everyone else , would love to see more creative play styles .

    There’s always a formation in Fifa which is favoured heavily by the players, unfortunately this year (and probably last year) it’s the dullest most defence heavy formation in the game. The game itself has been poor this year, but trying to play through a 6 man defence with cams coming back to also defend has compounded the chore that the game is

    Some of us also been useing these players since day 1. I had Mendy,Militao,Varane,semedo already in september last year.Now i dont have SH Mendy because i dont grind objectives of any kind. I dont really even play rivals. Still dont have the 300 wins for an Ultimate pack looked last night im at 225. But i had the 300 WL wins like 5-6 months ago.Now i have that Yuri Beriche, FB Militao, SH Lenglet and Tots Lala as my back 4. People will always use whats supposed to be the best players in this game.

    Its not like SH has provided much diversity and options in defense.

    Laliga defenders provide the easiest links, Semedo to Bernardo Silva, Carvajal to Callejon, Danilo to Militao, Mendy to Ribery. I wouldnt have minded a nice Chiellini or Bonucci SH, and would have fitted them in my team somehow

    The only thing i'm tired of is playing Clearly higher division players in the lower divisions of Rivals.

    I've went from division 4 to 8 in the space of a few weeks because nearly every game now is against a self-relegator. This was awful in fifa 19 and I gave EA the chance to fix it but they didn't and self-relegators are worse than ever so thank you @ea for sitting on your arse and doing nothing.

    If I have to play against a team of 99 pacers then so be it, but at least let it be fair.

    Right now Rivals is so ❤️❤️❤️❤️ toxic, the team you've spent months building up seems like time wasted. And fifa 21 will be exactly the same.

    everything is toxic even squad battles you play 2 easy teams but one of the easy teams will play like a hard team

    ... frustration and toxicity are the name of the game

    ... Mendy cost a lot of time sweat tears maybe even blood it was NOT free lol

    Only one that bugs me is Ter Stegen. He is in 30%-70% of my opponents teams (in some version or another).

    I don't fear playing him at all, it just bugs me to death how so many of you feel the need to use the SAME EXACT GK even though there are SOOOO many other options as good or bettet.

    100% agree.. There is always that 1 team nothing will work on.. They intercept every final pass, block every shot and literally never fall for a skill move

    Tired of seeing the same old French players that's for sure but I can't say I blame anyone except EA. Imo the best SBCs have been Ribery & Dembele, & Pogba was kind of irresistible & cheap to boot. Kimpembe's good & Lenglet seems to get around a bit. 8 or 9 Kante versions - don't get me started lol
