Engine seems to favour 3rd best or lower attackers, as well as defensive players scoring too (defenders and DMCs already scored 38 goals).

In this season, if you ‘feel’ that the engine sets the best players as non-performing, then maybe sub without any hesitation (missing open goals, corner goals or counter-attack goals is a clear indicator); before, there still is a slight chance the top attacker would still score from freekicks or PKs, now probably will keep wasting them all.

The negative performance only affects our personal games, as the best attackers still perform as good as usual in association matches.
Yes i am facing the exact same problem. My top 3 attackers are affected so 4th best onwards for me are doing well. My 5th best attacker is currently tied with my best player/attacker in number of goals scored but has played 3 fewer matches. It is quite likely that the top scorer will either not be won by me or won by a bench player if nothing changes. And yes the top few attackers do well in association games as you mentioned!
