What, you can't understand how the offline AI, which has been an issue in FIFA for a decade and has never been addressed, can be considered a minor problem only? Because of the outstanding graphics man,
because of the graphics!
Seriously though, the teammate AI isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I have had many, many instances where my CPU-controlled teammates came out of nowhere and blocked shots or took on the CPU ball carrier without me directing them to do so.
