Good for you, the 'superior' ones, hope the thousands of talented African players you've snatched help you win more honours!! Inferior my ass. Just wait for 2010. You have no chance in the African heat!!

By your logic, you should also rank Korea higher.. I mean, they beat Spain and Italy in the world cup. Then why are all the teams in the K-league crap?

good points.... Zidanes parents were part african??

Thats a pretty ignorant statement. Cause then you have to say that all American players are european, all mexican are spanish, and so on.. they may come from Africa, but they were not born or raised in Africa for the most cases, so they are not considered African, you cannot rate African teams higher because of Henry.. because he plays for the French national team. You yourself admitted that african leagues are not on the same level, so you yourself already admitted that those teams are inferior.

You're obviously an a-hole so they're is no point discussing with you. And yes, all blacks are African, without football some of these players would never be considered as real citizens of the countries they play for. Wait for 2010!!!

You are only African, if you are born in Africa.. your ancestors and your family tree may be African, but somehow last time I checked Atlanta, is not in Africa.

Wait for 2010?.. thats 6 yrs from now, and if 6 yrs from now African nations deserve to be rated as high as the good European teams, then they should, but as of today, they havent earned that rating.
I am an a-hole? maybe, but at least I dont use race or racism as a way to start stupid arguments.

One more thing Mr. Gora, when you speak of African players you have to consider every black player that has played the game. Cause thats where they all came from! Pele, Henry!!!

oh please.
that's the most ignorant argument that's been presented yet.

 

[ishan1990]

I think that it is wrong though to call someone african just because of their origin to that country. Thats like calling Landon Donovan a German Striker or something like that. Or any american an european. That is there ancestory but it is not where THEY are from.

PS Landon Donovan is horrible

Exactly. They're so crap it's not worth it playing them. How many people watch Asian football before they label it as being crap? But FIFA really disrespects anything not European

Gora, u continue in ur quest to ignore my question. I asked, are u in agreement to the ratings put forward by EA that rooney is better than Martins????

The issue here is that should EA be allowed to under-represent a minority group because that group is not a financial pool?? my case being brought forward for debate is that If EA is going to call themselves a global game, then i do believe that Atleast one African league should be present.

Is it a crime to be black or African?? Asia has the ki-league, North Americxa has the MLS, South America has Brazilian league, yet Africa does not even have one??? forgive my anger, but i just cannot understand it. I cant.

I havent seen Martins play, so I will not comment on that, but of course like a lot of people I dont agree with the way EA rate a lot of players, not only the African players. So race doesnt matter, they are just stupid.

if i remember correctly George Weah was one of the top players in FIFA 98, and Desailly was one of the best defenders. and in FIFA 2003 Benny McCarthy was rated as good as Shevchenko. so don't give me that crap about African players not being rated fairly.

The problem is that people forget that EA is a racist company.

Does iut suprise any of you that the African or Asian teams are always inferior?

Or doe sit suprise u that there are no African clubsides on EA

Or are u suprised that a player like Rooney would be better rated than Martins??

Well if u have not gotten the idea yet, u better brace urself with the truth- EA is a racist company

I've never seen a picture of a black male on the front of FIFA, and the players' voices all sound white in Madden 2004. Damn, you never see blacks pictured on the EA website either; it's a disgrace! No black music in EA games, all white trash.

I am the judge, at the Royal Kangaroo Crown Court: EA Sports are guilty of 1st degree racism!

 

[Davilton]

Oh yeah, if you don't like the verdict- you're a racist!!

I Thank you all- goodnight!

 

[FKPartizan]

I truely think that all of you are nuts!

But I would love to see the african cup of nations, the african style of play is very exciting and fun to watch.

But, have u ever heared any African music in FIFA?? have u seen any African player on the face of FIFA??

Face it, EA are either racist, or anti-African.

I'm hoping that FIFA 2005 will have a BIT more interest in non-European sides, after all, it's not UEFA 2005, is it?

Seriously, are you telling me that the Swiss league or the Swedish or Belgian leagues are better then the J-League, the Liga Mexicana, or the Argentine League? Or that Austria is a better national team then Japan? Or that Wrexham would beat Dalian Shide?

EA needs to include the Copa Libertadores, the CONCACAF Gold Cup, the Asian Cup, the African Cup of Nations, AS WELL AS several key world leagues. And if they take MLS out, they can count me and my friends out, we've bought the damn thing for 6 years, and every year had to put up with crappy interpretations of our league.

By the way, did what's his face check the pronunciations on any MLS players? If he says "Pet-ka" instead of Petke one more time I'm gonna track down EA's designers and force them to watch MLS until they get it right.

Pheww...
