i agree, i dont mind players using long balls/ through balls against me but it is poor play if they use the same tactic time after time to score.
I'm really not that good at this game online, but i like to play defensively and hit on the break with belarus or bulgaria. I find playing deep generally stops opponents that use france from overwhelming my defensive with attacking talent.
