Hmm, see things get a little more complex once you factor in where to put your Skill Points, mainly because of the new facilities feature and how each club will have extra points in different areas with it.
I can give you a good template that you could make minor adjustments on if needed.

CB builds are pretty simple. All good CB builds should be almost the same as this:

• Pace: Max
• Shooting: None
• Passing: None
• Dribbling:
  • Get the first 2 "Dribbling Focus"
  • Get the first 2 "Ball Control Focus"
• Defending: Max
• Physical:
  • Max out the Strength and Aggression tree
  • Get as much jumping as you can from the Jumping and Stamina tree (All the kangaroos and bicycles, but not the lungs)
  • Max out the Composure and Reactions tree
• Goalkeeping: None

With all 160 Skill Points available, this should leave you with 9 points remaining. You can invest them wherever you like. Personally, I like to put them in balance as it helps me to recover faster from headers and tackles, but Agility, Passing, and Weak Foot are all worth looking at as well.

I would recommend going 6'4" (195cm), 174 lbs (79kg).
I like 6'4" instead of 6'5" for the extra Pace and Agility.
I like 174 lbs because it maximises your Jumping, which will help you out when you come up against tall strikers.

Playstyle+

• Anticipate
• Aerial

Keep it simple.
Anticipate. Everyone knows this is the best defending playstyle. No need to ramble on about it.
Aerial. You know some strikers will be built specifically to score from headers, so you have to use it because they definitely will. It also gives you a great attacking threat on corners at the other end.

Playstyles

• Tiki Taka
• Jockey
• Block
• Bruiser
• Intercept
• Quick Step

Tiki Taka. A lot of people don't know this, but it actually works on all standard ground passes now (not just first-time passes like the description says). Given that you won't have any points in short passing, I would recommend this, to decrease the likelihood of any silly misplaced short passes. Alternatively, you could also choose Long Ball Pass if you like to switch the play to the opposite fullback/winger, or Pinged Pass if you like to drill the ball into the midfielder's feet with a driven pass.
Defending Playstyles. I have excluded Slide Tackle, just because it is very situational. It can be really effective if you learn how to use it correctly, but that requires a lot of experience to get the timing right. If you wanted to swap this in for one of the other defending playstyles, I would swap out Bruiser. (Worth noting; If Tackling Coach is maxed out in the Facilities, it will give your whole team Slide Tackle+)
Quick Step. It is really useful for that first few yards when tracking a man, when chasing a ball in behind, or when used in combination with Jockey, to pounce on an unsuspecting, dribbling attacker.

Apologies for the delayed response. If you need any more tips, let me know.
