FIFA 18: 10 Improvements We Want To See In Career Mode

2. Revamped Player Career

The Player Career Mode hasn't moved on much since the 'Be A Pro' feature was introduced almost a decade ago. The excitement of taking a young rookie to the top of the game is missing, and the mode digresses into another game-to-game borefest that grows tiresome just one season in.

'The Journey' from FIFA 17 represents hope for Player Career. EA should focus on shifting some of the role-playing elements found there across to the Career Mode in general too, because it'd be awesome to see post-match interviews and manager meetings if your created striker is failing to hit the back of the net on a regular basis.

Alex Hunter's story is ripe for further customisation. Every football fan dreams of pulling on their favourite jersey, and that should be part of the career experience.
