FIFA 19: 10 Fan Demands EA Sports Must Include

5. A New Character In The Journey

FIFA 19 The Journey
EA Sports

Young Englishman Alex Hunter has been through a lot for someone who only rolled out of his training academy a few years ago. He's made his Premier League debut, been out on loan at a Championship team, come up against a well-meaning (but bumbling) agent, fled to MLS and played for a European heavyweight.

EA are racing through the career of the modern-day footballer faster than they need to, and it's all because they want to make The Journey as dramatic and exciting as possible. Although true nobody can blame them for that, it might be an idea to take a little detour off in another direction this year.

Maybe it's time for FIFA 19's Journey to star a different, totally fresh character?

Hunter is always someone EA can come back to anyway, so it's not like they'd be cutting his story short in favour of starting anew. One suggestion would be starting off as Hunter, only to watch as he's put on the injury list by a nasty tackle.

Then, gamers can galavant off into a nifty little tangent for a while before returning to the English prodigy when he's healthy.
