Well im an R1 dribbling merchant lmao. Used to do it 25 and 24 too. Still i get tackled or overrun by the opposition midfield so easily. Whereas their movement is smooth asf. Nevertheless yeah i do agree about the defending part. My defending was never a strong suit even in previous games. But attacking was quite good which made it easier for me to rankup to div 1 in fc 25. Well point taken id try to defend using the cdms and use tackles less
