FIFA 15: 10 Lessons It Must Learn From Classic PES

4. Classic Teams Should Feature

Similar to Legends in FIFA 14, classic nations and club sides should be included in all upcoming versions of the game €“ even if EA Sports are forced to mask teams and players under false names like Konami do. Wielding the greatest elevens of all-time is equally appealing as taking control of legendary players €“ if not more so. Just like retro kits are up for grabs in the EA Sports FC Catalogue, teams of years gone by should also be available. Imagine pitting the late 80s AC Milan side, the Barcelona of 2009 or Brazil's 2002 World Cup-winning squad against today's cream of the crop. Although this would please many, there's one problem with classic teams. Given that most of the aforementioned sides have a number of players who were close to unstoppable in their prime, would vintage sides be too good? Most of the players in the Classic Brazil team on PES5 boasted multiple attributes above 90, Pele (aka Palm) even warranted the maximum attack rating of 99. Would players of this stature ruin the game if they were included? Probably. But this could easily be fixed by restricting the use of such brilliant players to offline game modes.
