Allow Custom Transfers for Classic Teams in Online Friendlies
Hey everyone, I’ve been playing EA Sports FC for over 20 years, and to this day the main mode I play is Online Friendlies with a friend on Xbox. It’s honestly the only mode we use, and we’ve been doing this for years. First off, huge appreciation for adding the Classic XI / legendary teams offline. That was an awesome addition and brings a lot of nostalgia into the game. You crushed it with that. That said, I think there’s a big opportunity to make this even better. It would be amazing if we could edit or transfer players within these classic teams, just like we can with regular clubs. Imagine being able to: Build your own “ultimate” XI from the legends available Customize teams for friendlies Create themed squads (prime Barca, Galácticos, etc.) Right now, we’re limited to the preset squads, which are great, but having the freedom to mix and match players would take Online Friendlies to another level. Not sure if this is something already being considered, but I’d love to see it implemented. Curious if others here would use this too.
Israeli Premier League
*To the EA Sports Team,* I'm reaching out as a longtime player, with a request that has been raised for years – the inclusion of the *Israeli Premier League* in EA FC 26. This is an active league with history, tradition, and passionate fans. Clubs like *Maccabi Haifa, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Hapoel Tel Aviv, and Beitar Jerusalem* participate regularly in European competitions, facing teams that already exist in the game – yet they themselves are not represented. In community polls and feedback, *Israel consistently ranks high* in demand for new leagues. Still, despite strong support, this request remains unanswered. Commercial considerations are understandable, but from a marketing standpoint – *adding the Israeli league would significantly grow the local player base* and generate renewed interest in each new edition of the game. Moreover, this is also a cultural matter. For many of us, seeing our local clubs and players in the game is a dream that connects our love for football games with our love for our teams. We’d love to see EA take this step – both for the community and for the brand. Sincerely, Saeed,Career Difficulty Level doesn’t work, all are very easy.
I am winning 8-0 even on Ultimate Difficulty in Career Mode. Putting in no effort because it’s all so easy. Seems like the difficulty doesn’t actually change from semi pro upwards. I am playing as Chelsea which have a decidedly average team, but it’s no challenge at all.

Champs is unplayable with the amount of cheaters and constant disconnection from games, please fix your cheating situation, fix your server issues, input delay and all the other stuff that is wrong with this game and make the game fun again instead feeding on peoples money its just a shame that people spend money on packs then realizing its a mistake. So by all means fix the **bleep** game mainly the gameplay, cheaters and content among the menu then maybe ill consider playing moreFC 26/27 Career Mode Needs Major Realism & Customisation Improvements
I think Career Mode in EA Sports FC 26 has so much potential, but there are a few key areas where it really needs improvement to feel more realistic and immersive. Player creation feels very limited right now. There aren’t enough modern hairstyles in the game, which makes it difficult to recreate real-life players, especially younger players coming through academies who are not yet included. In modern football, a lot of players have styles like skin fades with fringes, textured crops, or cornrows and braids, but these are either missing or very limited in the game. This makes it almost impossible to create accurate lookalikes of upcoming players. Another major missing feature is tattoos. Tattoos are a big part of football culture now, and without them created players do not look realistic. Even a simple tattoo system with options for arms and legs would make a big difference and improve immersion in Career Mode. The media system in Manager Career also needs improvement. It currently feels repetitive and unrealistic, with most questions being overly positive. In real football, the media can be very critical, especially after poor performances or bad results. The game should include more direct and challenging questions that put pressure on the manager and make the experience feel more authentic. AI transfers are another issue. Clubs often make unrealistic signings that do not fit their squad or style, and teams can become very unbalanced. This breaks immersion and makes Career Mode feel less believable. Transfers should be more intelligent so clubs build squads in a way that reflects real life. Player performance across leagues is also unrealistic. When checking other leagues, top players often underperform heavily. For example, you might see players like Lamine Yamal with very low goal and assist numbers compared to real life. At the same time, random players from smaller or newly promoted teams can end up as top scorers, while world class players do not perform as expected. Players like Haaland should consistently be among the top scorers, but this does not always happen in Career Mode, which breaks realism. Another missing element is player personality. Players feel too generic and there is no sense of individuality. Adding personality traits such as having a big ego, reacting badly to being benched, or showing ambition would make squad management more interesting and realistic. Celebrations also need updating. Many of the current celebrations feel outdated or unrealistic. Adding more modern and commonly used celebrations, especially for created players, would improve the overall experience. Overall, Career Mode has a strong foundation, but improving realism, customisation, and immersion in these areas would make a huge difference. Would be great to hear what others think and what they would like to see improved.FC Career Mode
I think player creation in Career Mode could be massively improved with more customisation options. Right now, the hairstyles are quite limited, and it makes it hard to properly recreate real-life players—especially younger academy players who aren’t yet in the game. For example, Max Dowman at Arsenal. Adding a much wider variety of modern hairstyles (different lengths, textures, fades, etc.) would make created players look far more realistic. Another big feature that would improve this is the ability to add tattoos. A lot of real players have distinctive tattoos, and without them it’s almost impossible to make accurate lookalikes. Even a basic tattoo system (arms, legs, different styles) would go a long way. This would be especially useful for Career Mode players who like to: Create real-life youth prospects not yet in the game Rebuild squads realistically Add a more immersive, authentic feel to their saves Overall, improving player creation would make Career Mode much more enjoyable and realistic for a lot of the community. Would love to hear if anyone else feels the same or has other ideas to add.
When I am winning gameplay changes!!!
When I am up and winning I cannot make simple A passes to the player right next to me. When I am down and losing my players make every single pass even no scope 180 turn around passes. If you were to say that this pattern happens on a consistent basis you would conclude that something besides your own gameplay is responsible. But your not allowed to say the words that best describe what these consistent patterns are called. Especially when I am not the only one, but rather one of tens of thousands of people this is happening to on a regular basis. But I must describe it in this **bleep** way or the moderators will say I am lying and ban me. If this happened randomly every once in a while it would not be so suspicious but the fact that it happens on a regular basis leads to a more probably answer than chance and coincidence. I think the fact that this company and forum villianizes their fans and members when they report people cheating and when they point out what they saw with their own eyes is pretty disgraceful and shameful. If you walk like a duck and talk like a duck then what are you? According to EA you are BANNED. Utterly disgusting and ridiculous.My teammates are running into me!
Not once in a while on a regular basis. I don't want to play cookie cutter meta ball where i run the same lines every other clown does. I want my teammates to pay attention and at least not run into me. When I am the striker running on goal and a winger or wide midfielder cuts inside directly in the path I am running that is beyond the pale. No one not in a toddlers league would do that. Beyond ridiculous the basic fundamentals are lost in this game for tricks and gimmicks.
Career Mode
FC26 Needs an Online Real-Time Career Mode Career Mode is one of the deepest and most loved features in EA Sports FC — but it remains offline and isolated. FC26 has the opportunity to evolve it into something revolutionary: An Online Real-Time Career Mode. Imagine: 20 human managers controlling real clubs Weekly real-time matches Live transfer bidding against other players Real fixture congestion (league + Champions League) Fatigue, injuries, and squad rotation that truly matter Media pressure affecting morale This wouldn’t replace Ultimate Team. It would expand the ecosystem. Ultimate Team rewards fast competition. Online Career would reward strategy, planning, and long-term commitment. It creates: Stronger player retention A subscription-based revenue opportunity Community-driven rivalries A true football simulation experience Football is not just skill on the controller. It is management, timing, rotation, and decision-making under pressure. FC26 can lead the next evolution of football gaming — not by moving faster… but by going deeper.
