re: FIFA AI defenders are awful

Yea they are pretty terrible.

The corners are especially frustrating this year. Half the time when I manually switch to defend the header it switches me to someone not even close to where the balls gonna land. I tried to the auto switch on air balls only but that was pretty miserable too.

I do like that you have to be patient when working the ball up the field and can't just get it to the sideline and blast up the field like in past games though

Also Lahm can't tackle Ronaldo, user controlled or not. I think the game designers made it impossible to happen. Ever.
