Football and gambling will always go hand-in-hand it is just one of lifes inevitable facts. With this in mind it should come as no surprise that fans have been clamouring for some time for the introduction of a wager mode into the newest instalment of FIFA. These high-stakes games would either be played for a mutually agreeable bounty of coins or a suitable player. Though these games could potentially cause no end of arguments in school classrooms (or offices), there can be no denying the fact that the anxiety and tension would lead to some extremely entertaining moments. Already unsanctioned wager matches are rife on FIFA with Ultimate Team-fanatics taking to twitter or other online hangouts to arrange these unofficial wagers. As you might expect given the unsavoury nature of many of FIFAs online players, this type of agreement regularly results in players getting scammed out of their prized FUT possessions. By introducing a governed wager facility FIFA would not only add an extremely interesting mode to their Ultimate Team suite but would also eliminate the reprehensible work of the scammers.
