Shameless plug but FIFA & PES fans should really check out your Youtube videos. I've been using them for years:

Thanks for all the hard work and welcome to OS!

Isn't the Premier League presentation part of a day one patch?

I highly recommend doing some of these squad challenges. I did the gold upgrade one which was basically just trading in non-rare gold players for 2 rare untradeable players and I totally pulled a Messi! Who cares if it's untradeable it's Messi!!! Finally something to do with all those non-rare players that I usually just quick sell anyways.

LOL... WHAT?????

I think you're confusing the two games. In PES, you can barely pass by someone with a run until it's timed perfectly.

Im willing to bet you never played it. How can you call it 'arcadeish'

I have it dumb dumb. And typically I prefer it over FIFA. However, that stuff you're talking about with the runs, pure nonsense.

The writer of this review is clearly not a "real football fan".

Last year PES was extremely arcadish. Not sure what you're talking about. I haven't played this year's version yet but I went back to FIFA last year because in PES, the goalies were too stupid and would let goals just roll by. Hated it.
