OK lol outpass my oponent

I just think it's quite cheap because the AI helps you out, pass straight to the RM/LM and there's usually a Striker who has moved to a wide position to help you out. At the end of the day IMO it's easy to just sprint down the side of the pitch and hit a lofted ball into the box hoping a player will get his head on it than it is to hold possession and string together a killer combo of passes.
It's not so much the wide play I have a problem with, as you say it's a part of football and I'll go wide if I'm looking for a quick counter or to hold possession. The problem really is the repetition, whether it's crosses or lobbed through balls I grow tired of people who just repeat the same tactic with the same team every game.
