When Claude Makelele moved from Real Madrid to Chelsea at the height of Galacticos era, Zinedine Zidane famously said: “Why put another layer of gold paint on the Bentley when you’re losing the entire engine?” And, despite the exciting addition of PlayStyles in the inaugural EA Sports FC, EA’s flagship football franchise has felt a
