The chants are cool but correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't FIFA already have goal-line technology? It's in there but it's just not reviewed like it is IRL.

It's a Premier League Exclusive deal, meaning the PL branding will only be in FIFA. The individual clubs can however make deals independently with Konami to be in Pro Evolution Soccer.

I mean to have the total image rights to all the stadiums and likenesses for leagues that don't package all of those things together. The BPL now has their league represented in more thoroughly in the game, and it makes it more attractive and notable for the players relative to other leagues in the game.

Ok good point although I guess when they make individual deals with clubs they can already create their stadiums and chants besides scanning the players, something I don't see them taking much advantage of.

There are also plenty of sub leagues to add. To have depth and relegation in all countries. That is what I want to see. I don't just want the top leagues.

As an example, even though in real life there is no promotion/relegation system in the US, we do have three leagues. MLS > NASL > USL Pro. I want to see the later two in the game. Same with other countries. Then allow us the option to turn promotion/relegation on for those that don't use it.

Indeed. Playing in a league without relegation gets old. Hoping the rumor of the Dutch 2nd division is true

I think you're right. It's just the ref kits and not real life refs. That would be incredible though. I'd love to slide tackle Howard Webb with Stevie G.
