Well done, you’ve cleared the ball from an over the top pass. I’m just going to pass it to my wingers, run down the wing and constantly ground cross it. You can have 4/5/6 in the box. One of those balls will find my player and I will score. What if i’m playing two up top?

They’ll press on your sweeper and then he’ll have to try to stop them by zonal-ly marking the two strikers. He can stop one, but then your sweeper is out of place, and my striker will be through. And the cost of playing a sweeper? You’ll have one less player in the midfield/attack and that will weaken your team. It’ll be like playing a red carded team when I have the ball in the middle of the park. Its also the same reason a 424 doesn’t work well.

Real life isn’t fifa. Yeah the sweeper is obsolete in the real game. However, as someone who’s defense is very strong against pacewhores and weaker against other Fifa 16 coins ios, I don’t fear aubameyang or doumbia or anyone fast unless they have great other stats as well (and even then it’s not their pace that is an issue), MY PLAYSTYLE works great defensively for me. In seasons I would play a custom formation with a sweeper and 3 CB’s that I did great in D1 with.

In ultimate team, I would often pause in rough games and customize my formation with a sweeper and would often make great runs and/or comebacks into the game while more effectively closing out defensively. I love playing defenses that people like you think you can just tear apart with pace. You guys are my favourite opponents. I don’t get what you’re trying to accomplish. Are you trying to convince me?

Are you trying to insult me? Are you trying to brag about your abilities? Are you just sharing that you like to pace abuse? I can’t tell what your endgame is. I like to use a sweeper. I get good results with it. It shores up my weaknesses and allows me to play a defensive style that works for me. My sweeper doesn’t just allow everyone to play LBY balls, because I don’t just let the computer do all my defending. I manually adjust their positioning all the time. I do feel confident stopping Doumbarbomeyang in that defense. And I still don’t get why you feel the need to insult my intelligence because you don’t like my FORMATION IN A VIDEO GAME. Get over yourself. Play whatever you want, and let other people play their way. There isn’t just ONE right way to do things, and you aren’t automatically right just because something works/doesn’t work for you.

You know, in online seasons (or some people call it H2H), which is also an online versus-mode, you can fine tune any formation however you’d like by moving positions around, and you’ve been able to do it for years and years. So what you are asking for is already in FIFA.
