As we start to see the lasting effects of the latest patches I think it is safe to say that we would all like FIFA 22 back in its original form. Yes the keepers were superhuman at close range, yes the keepers turned to mush when the ball was struck from distance, yes certain cards seemed to have out of this world abilities, but … the game was predictable, the game was manageable and most of all, the game was fun. At this stage, it appears that once again the gameplay is slightly moving in the wrong direction and certainly the return of a more drop-back-through-ball meta has emerged in spades.
