Actually we aren't sure if Blatter will win. It seems concacaf may have 90% turned against him due to not backing Webb per the new President Havit (or however you spell his name), Europe outside of Spain, Russia and one other aren't voting for him, Asia says they are voting for him but we know Australia actually isn't. Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay have all declared to vote against Blatter.

Prince Ali claims that BEFORE the arrests he had 60 votes outside of Europe...

I still think Blatter wins here with something like 115 to 120 votes (needing 105 of 209 to win) but any small swing could go their way. And frankly if Prince Ali just told Africa that he would double goal grants if elected he would probably get half Africa too.

Problem is that individual associations that were going to vote against Blatter are now going to be pushed around and bullied at the mere suggestion that he won't get in. There will be no vote against Blatter except a tiny minority except in Europe.
This is not a democracy.

Its ok Zeo they will not be allowing Male teams to play vs Female ones so if u pick a female team u can only search vs female teams etc.

I just wrote a long response about the differences between men and women in sport and why them playing together with realistic stats would make click-bait journalists in the video-game industry rub their hands in glee.

But thought better of it, don't want this thread turning into Kotaku.

Haha good idea. FIFA should be good this year anyway as last year the new engine was to buggy it felt but it was a good direction to lead into so hopefully this time it will be very smooth and crisp. Like if you played FIFA 15 you will notice that the running into people getting random freekicks and the goalkeepers doing the most randomest of things needs fixing asap.

The problem is that no one knows where these 60 nations came from. Both Asia and Africa have internally agreed on Blatter, it would be very surprising if a lot of them were to vote for Ali. Keep in mind that they didn't even allow him to speak at their own congress. Before the scandal everyone expected Blatter to win in the first round, now it might actually take a second, and that would already be a success.
And pande just wants to be more angry when that Blatter wins

This might actually be a moment to feel sorry for EA. They are just screwed either way. They can't continue to ignore women, they can't include them with stats too low or too high, they would even get shit if they released a whole game just for the womens side. They will also definitely catch hell if they don't allow women playing men. It's kinda funny.

Election time coming up soon.

Secret Ballot screen will make the vote easy.

Green - vote for Blatter
Black - abstain
Red - vote against Ali
