Include Egyptian Premier League in FM 2011 !!

[DivineOne]

From what I hear the competition editor is still very limited and can't recreate (accurately) certain leagues/divisions..

I'm sure you aren't able to recreate the Belgian system (then again, why would you want to? ).

[Blanchflower1]

i'll probably never even load egyptian league, but the more the better

Same philosophy I have mate! Because of PC limitations, I can only load a select number of leagues. Nevertheless, the more leagues SI adds, the merrier because if I get tired of my current game, I can always load a new game with more nations to choose from!

[SI_Saga]

I've said it before... it's not even a matter of wanting the Egyptian league, by itself. It's a matter of giving african managers a healthy amount of choices.

Ever since FM2006, all my unemployed saves have started in South Africa (one exception was FM 2007, when I went to Ukraine instead). Once you achieve everything in South Africa, you have no choice but to leave the continent! You just can't make an international career in Africa.

If you consider that, in a low-spec PC, you can only load a handful of leagues, than it's obvious you'd want to stick to, say, a single continent. Only Africa, only America, only Asia, etc. I can do it in all of them... except Africa.

Sure makes you think about that "let's kick racism out of football" at game start... (just a bad joke, btw... don't even dare saying I'm acusing SI of racism).

I'd probably try a game there if it was added.

From a personal point of view, I'd rather have another level in England and Italy though.

[ahly3azeem]

i definatlely voted yes, egyptian football needs to be more recognized, i hope the league is available in fm 11

[Blanchflower1]

I also hope that SI will include at least a minimum of 1 Oceanic league in the game! Australia does not count now because they are part of AFC, but SI should at least include New Zealand so that ALL continents will be represented in the game! (Of course this excludes Antarctica! )

[Blanchflower1]

Please SI, listen to the fans to include more leagues in the game! This is for the good of the game!

[Jackson Mourinho]

Isn't this one of the richest leagues in the world?

[x42bn6]

The cost of licensing the Egyptian League has to be outweighed by the additional customers buying the game to play the Egyptian League. This is where I suspect things will fall down.

[eddietheorc]

Yes

The more the merrier !!!!!

Also would love to see Africa have more regens in the game.

I've got a couple of questions relating to Egyptian football:

1. Why are Egyptian players so volatile and unprofessional when they play in other european leagues ie. Mido, Amr Zaki?

2. Being a PAOK fan I like Shikabala, but what does his nickname mean?

[karim fathi_zamalek]

because they are stars within their nation and when they leave the lights start to fade away from them and become part of a team

shikabala is a nickname to his real name mahmoud abdel razek

Waw, I don't think he expected an answer after half a year .

[letissierandhenryaregreat]

Egypt has the most internet users in Africa, so I expect there to be a pretty decent market for the game.

[markyosullivan]

Yes! The more nations the better!

[Nobby_McDonald]

I wonder if Karim is a gravedigger by occupation.

[cynet]

The same applies to over 40 of the playable leagues included in the game...

Yes but i don't play them, so what's that telling you my friend

[shwan]

Gave it a 'yes' for my friend in this one. He's from Egypt and he gets a bit down every year he loads it up and has to play as Liverpool again. I do feel for him...

nahh SI should include Egypt league and take him out of the misery of managing Liv that must be a torture
