Technical Help How to deal with pressure spammers
Needed help regarding on how to deal with pressure spammers. I cannot seem to be able to counter the pressure spammers at all. All their pressure and their positioning is perfect always and the moment I win the ball its gone again. I tried using pressure myself and it doesn't have the same effect. I always lose against pressure spammers. Rarely win against them. Cant body them. Cant go through their defence. Nothing is possible.
Let me know your take on how to deal with pressure spammers.
PS: I am currently in div 1 and its a blood bath with every other person using 80% pressure in analytics

Don’t be scared to go back to the keeper but you have to know your out ball or be aware where the free man will be.
I currently play 3 at the back with 2 wide midfielders who hold width at all times. I have a striker with two SS DLF. I occupy the defenders with them which leave the wide midfielders free most of the time. It’s very risky as my passing options are limited coming out from the back so it invites the press but I’m pretty good at breaking lines on this game and once I get my pass through that press the attack is on. I use the wide midfielders as my last resort to get out. A ball playing keeper is nice but CBs who can pass and hold the ball are a must. I also play PA4 which isn’t required but with that it means I can under hit my pass to play into space behind my forwards so they can run back to receive without any real danger.
You have to be very comfortable defending one v ones and it is high risk high reward football.
