This is the retired life of FIFA 16
It's been a good 12 months for Fifa 16, but a lucrative retirement career awaits

It's a cycle that all great football games go through.
You emerge in the midst of Autumn, all pace and strong finishing, fancy new physics and eye popping graphics. You dominate every living room across the nation, relegating all competition to sit idly under the telly and gather dust.
