I've never said the offline players were wrong. I said I wasn't seeing the issue with it. I said quite a few times I was on about online. Some still had hissy fits at me though. They then went on to play it online and sort of understood where I was coming from. Anyway, nobody else's opinion matters but our own does it? Enjoy the game and play it. If you don't enjoy it, don't play it.
The only major difference when it comes to defense between multiplayer/single-player is that you can't go the length of the pitch in multiplayer without a defender attempting a tackle like you can against the CPU this year. If anything, high pressure tactics are still the norm online.
All the other AI issues are readily apparent in multiplayer, even if they can be somewhat minimized when you know what the exploits are.
On the other hand, the CPU doesn't base its tactics around exploiting the games flaws like many online do.
You can be immature and dismissive, and call these hissy fits, but they are valid criticisms that plenty of people have, here and elsewhere.
And I think we all learned some time ago that we can find ways to enjoy these games, to varying degrees, while also throwing hissy fits. It's kinda what we do.
