They made friendlies server based and the host choses the server and that's why the host feels like to have an advantage. Its * nuts why they got rid of peer to peer on friendlies and it was the only mode you could enjoy if your friends were in the same city/countries. Nowadays there is no game mode to enjoy since all are server based and if the server connection is * sadly you cant play any game mode. Not gonna buy fc25 for that reason!
