The problem with this is that you can use this to your advantage when passing or attacking. Its the same with the defence shape and a few other bits.

We can all score goals pretty quick if we want to with a couple of runners and slide it inside. I dont do this though even when getting beaten.

Even with CT's the you can read the positionings 100% of the time and the most frustrating thing is you can see some of the goals coming but are almost just a bystander because the players are in the same positions all the time and the differential between AI players and human players is massive.
that's spot on, the player's don't move around at all, In clubs it can be useful because there's so many headless chickens on the pitch that a bit of organisation can only be a good thing. I don't know what to say mate, there's nothing more frustrating than wanting a certain player to move in and intercept but the computer just won't let you select the man so he just stands there like the puppet he is.
