Hi guys !
For those of you that haven't got FM18 yet I'll try find some time and make few reviews of it; I’ll be posting them here
So far the Free Kicks in FM18 Beta don’t look good at all...
The defending team doesn't go back to its formation shape after free kicks has been taken, it really looks anecdotal.
Also, it doesn’t matter how many players you sent forward during attacking free kicks the AI team always have all players at the back.
Watch the video below that I made for you to see what I’m talking about:

It also looks very weird when players cross inside the box even that they were instructed to deliver “Short” and there are no teammates at all inside the box.

Here's another video for you guys
I've made a simulation when 2 Defenders defend vs 6 Attackers in FM18 Beta.
I find that such simulation is a very good representation of AI's intelligence when it comes to attack and defense
The setup:
2 Defenders – Sergio Ramos and Nacho
6 Attackers –Messi, Suarez, Dembele, Iniesta, Rakitic and Busquets
Enjoy
