Read on for a rundown of 10 modern classics which EA should definitely seek to include in FIFA 13, which is your favourite?

10. Ronaldo €˜Leg-Show€™

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBZCzY2x6cI We kick off with a celebration which grabbed the headlines of a game in which Real Madrid dismantled an Osasuna side 5-1 on a warm Spanish evening a few months ago. Cristiano Ronaldo (who else?) had just scored an absolute rocket past the disbelieving keeper; when he walked off to celebrate in most typical Ronaldo style. Bearing a smug look only he could pull off, he lifted up his shorts over his right thigh and pointed to the ridiculously toned, muscular leg which had produced the goal. I remember watching it, I couldn€™t help but laugh at the way Ronaldo answers his critics by acting as a caricature of himself. It was a celebration of pure genius, the epitome of arrogance, simply brilliant. The reaction of the Madrid bench said it all, laughing and imitating Ronaldo, even the special one afforded himself a little grin. This iconic celebration would fit perfectly into FIFA 13, imagine it: the beautiful feeling when you€™ve just buried the keeper from 30 yards, laughing in your mate€™s face, you look at the screen to see Cristiano mocking your virtual opponents in a similar fashion. This iconic celebration is a must in a future edition of FIFA, one which the developers cannot miss out on.
