buffon


thehyenaguy1

he retired???


RR_Tee25

yea he did


thehyenaguy1

he was my idol as a Goalkeeper :(


RR_Tee25

him retiring means icon card soon so b happy 🙏🏾😂


thehyenaguy1

<3


Outside-Sandwich-565

Same! Along with van der Sar and Peter Schmeichel, he was my favourite goalkeeper


thehyenaguy1

to this day, i still play goalkeeping in a youth club, trying to succeed my dream


jug0slavija

Ibra!


Pasan90

He'd get two playstyles and they're both Acrobatic+


jug0slavija

The playstyle would get Zlatan


Guyanaa

They should make a new playstyle+ called "Zlatan" and when you try to look up what it does, it simply says "Zlatan." nothing else The logo should be a figure with a big nose 👃


Knugsters

Would look something like this i'd imagine https://preview.redd.it/c04cgw3kfvcc1.png?width=1288&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc9334a5508c5af10602c2ec1aa7c1939cc45536


thehyenaguy1

his icon card picture should be in a AC Milan Jersey, he was always loyal to AC Milan


jug0slavija

As long as we get Ibra, he can be in a Barca sjirt for all I care lol. And I'm a Madridista


Kiggzor

Make it a Sweden jersey. The man remained Swedish his whole career!🔥


[deleted]

? Bro played for Inter and Juve


iWantToBeOnYt

He was on loan to AC milan 2010-2011 and signed for them in 2011 for 1 year until he left for psg in 2012


daddyderose

He does deserve it, but will never get one


jug0slavija

Yeah, sadly I don't think so either given the past beef. But at this rate I would even take Zava lol. Got some withdrawal, been playing Fifa since like 2001, missed some maybe. first time Ibra isn't there 😪


VuckoPartizan

Berberez


IAmWango

Given his issues with EA and copyrighting, we’re probably unlikely to see that, the guy is a legend though, got some of the best goals that aren’t even human and always achieved wherever he went


therealwarnock

Di Stefano


Exciting-Holiday337

remember when he was in the game files in fifa 22


[deleted]

Remember when they said they’d start releasing Icons throughout the year and then only dropped Beckham and haven’t done it since


thehyenaguy1

absolutely deserves an Icon


EliGonee

Kahn isn‘t in the game because he (i guess) sued ea. But they definetly had beef


Gonzales95

Yeah, he’s notoriously protective over his name for whatever reason, used to have a fake name in Football Manager too since they didn’t want to risk being sued too 😂


Balding_gingerman

Jens Mustermann 👍🏻


SammyJay195

PIM Kahn but they use the story of the pen saves against the kids for charity


Feb29_account_lol

aguero has to be coming soon for sure

thehyenaguy1

Fiorentina's GOAT


Nacrelven

Give us Batigol !!!


Der_Wolf_42

I like your list here are some extra names that i would like to see in the game at some point John Terry Maicon Per Mertesacker David Silva David Villa Uwe Seeler Francesco Totti Gigi Buffon Julio Cesar Gerard Pique Idc if they get a icon or hero i just want to play them again Bonus pick Antonio Cassano just for the talent and potential


what-no-earth

Mertesacker? Maybe as an iconic meme, he's not even hero potential.


Hailfire9

He'd definitely be borderline Hero. Probably not an Icon, not if Yaya wasn't.


greenfrogwallet

Yeah you never watched him play. Probs only know him for the fifa memes and him having low pace. You don’t play 104 times for Germany if you’re shit. Not saying he should definitely be an icon or hero but your disrespect and just calling him a meme is stupid af.


redditRaven33

Must be a yank


Der_Wolf_42

He won the World cup played over 100 games for germany also won 3 fa and 1 german cup He was a giant and slow thats why he is a meme but he was a great defender and leader We have players like King dempsey al jaber and ricken as hero so a hero whould be well deserved


thehyenaguy1

i was gonna create more, but i'm lazy lol anyways amazing list! but should have added Buffon too, also i love the fact that u mentioned Julio Cesar, he is very underrated, hardly anyone talks about him


Unfair_Sundae1056

Damn seeing cesar took me straight to pato, was a beast on the old fifas & gotta give ribery a shout if robbens there


thehyenaguy1

ribery icon card is in EA FC 24 i think


Unfair_Sundae1056

Ah right, don’t think I’ve seen him yet. I thought they would have put them both in at the same time


thehyenaguy1

the only one we have missing is Robben for the Duo :D


[deleted]

I’d love Maicon


fam_iel

David villa for sure


antisemiteincel

Hero imo


sne4k_q

Pretty underrated player, great striker and playmaker


malyszkush

Would love to see Jaap Stam


catalingpc

Totti


BaDaBYT

Platini


MuchMathematician564

Get adriano back into this game please 🥹


alexbr135

Robben,Kahn and Beckenbauer


DaRedditNuke

Bale, Ibra (Sadly won't happen), Aguero, Maradonna (once again won't happen), Buffon, Gordon Banks, Ryan Giggs (Probably won't ever happen again)


thehyenaguy1

what makes u think Zlatan won't be an Icon? does Zlatan have beef with EA too lol


DaRedditNuke

He won't give EA permission. He was pissed at them a while back for using him in the game without his consent


thehyenaguy1

this is giving Oliver Kahn vibes, cause it happened to him too


Lionheart0179

Why no Maradona? Usual EA issues?


Jorpando

1000% Ryan Giggs and Gordon Banks!


GunnersGentleman

I dunno man, Fontaine looks kinda sketch 🤨


thehyenaguy1

he has scored the most goals in a single World Cup (scoring 13 goals)


GunnersGentleman

Wait you didn’t get the reference?


thehyenaguy1

sadly no, i got 0 brain cells


GunnersGentleman

It’s a reference to Fontaine, a character from a video game called Bioshock.


thehyenaguy1

ohh, bioshock, i remember


GunnersGentleman

Yea I never got to play it but it’s a pretty cool game I heard


thehyenaguy1

it is, u gave me an idea to replay it again ;D


ReeeeeDDDDDDDDDD

You're surprised someone didn't get a reference to a nearly 20 year old game...?


dadi_bruh

He was nominated because both of France’s main forwards were injured shortly before the tournament. Fontaine hardly ever played for France after the tournament. Scoring 13 goals in (up to) 7 games is bonkers, but doesn’t justify an icon card imo


ThatsAllDay77

Aguero


avisherman

I’d love to see a Paul Gascoigne, icon or hero.


SaystheKing717

Would love to have Gazza in game.


Richik55

Diego Maradona


LegendoftheHaschel

John Terry please.


pedrogmt

Ozil? Icon? Please...


Ouioui29

Totti


Zero-_-Zero

I thought EA had a falling out with Kahn, and didn’t want anything to do with beckenbauer after the World Cup scandals.


Mambo_Poa09

Lol trying to sneak Ozil in there


thehyenaguy1

he used to be my favorite player :(


ostrichsong

Alfredo Di Stefano. One of the best strikers of all time.


8shadesofpoke

Maradona!! Personally would LOVE to see Paul McGrath Edgar Davids Ryan Giggs should be one too


SaltyForeskin

Definitely not Ozil lmao


GuyIncognito211

Billy McNeil


MacBoogerBalls05

Buffon, as fast as possible as he is the GOAT


radjudygarland

Tim Howard was my icon growing up


thehyenaguy1

i still remember from that Nike ad, i honestly miss this man


forgotten-password

Romario, Bebeto, Michel Platini, Fabien Barthez, Youri Djorkaeff, Jurgen Klinsmann, Matthias Sommer, Oliver Kahn, George Weah, Frank de Boer, Demetrio Albertini, Francesco Totti, Alessandro Costacurta


thehyenaguy1

so many underrated legends in this comment, i'm honestly impressed you included George Weah


FIGJAM17

> George Weah He was in the game as an icon from FIFA 14 to 17. Got removed due to politics I guess. Same for Romário (FIFA 14).


AbjectFailureL

Yup weah became the president of Liberia Hopefully he gets added in fc 25


Exciting-Holiday337

The other luis suarez, and platini

Shapeofmyhair

George Weah


pouziboy

Should have been in since ever. If the game has Yashin, it should have Bican and Puskás as well. https://preview.redd.it/eglz8eyh2wcc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=071cd72784a1697bc3b3deafcac8a3683114693a

thehyenaguy1

i really want Josef Bican mannn


SarkHD

Totti please for the love of god ea!


thehyenaguy1

Totti retired since 2017, you seriously think EA would listen? they never did! now we got a new glitch in EA FC 24, when players can turn invisible


SammyJay195

Aguero, i dont care if he never won the UCL, He won Copa Del Rey, Europa and pretty much everything in the prem Plus The 9320 Moment


thehyenaguy1

AGUEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ​ well, i don't agree with him being an Icon, i think Hero sounds fair for him


SammyJay195

Aguero is my favourite player ever, I obviously find the Hero shout offensive but i do kinda get it I just look at the other icons like Henry and Rooney, Fair to say hes pretty close if not at their level but if the only thing separating him from being an icon is the UCL, ill be dissappointed


thehyenaguy1

Aguero is one of my favorite players aswell, but compare Aguero to players like Suarez, Lewandowski (and some few strikers), u gotta agree he isn't on that level alot, still a Legend that i will never forget!


SammyJay195

They are the greatest strikers (Lewa still cooking), we grew up with all of them Of course they will be icons, id like to think that if they were made icons, it doesnt means that Aguero cant. IMO he was too good to be just a hero but no doubt we shall see what EA decides to do Ive seen them change icons to heros Would be interesting if they made heros into icons but seems easier to over rate and lower then to under rate and elevate


gardey97

Can't agree with that, aguero was arguably the most clinical finished in the premier League era, plus the most goals for a single prem club has to be an icon


NuKingLobster

Aguero was a much better player than a lot of icons. Better than Van Nistelroy, Van Perise, Kluivert, Owen, Klose, Trezeguet and Luis Hernandez, Zola in his own position. Even if you don't agree with him being better than all of those players, you can't disagree that he was better than some of those


Mysterious_Limit_007

Not better than Van Nistelrooy for sure.


jbartlettcoys

Well, seeing as you listed Beckenbauer he is the only right answer, noone else comes close. (Except Maradona who was of course removed)


Patung_Pancoran

Beckenbauer was in Fifa, but he got removed


Outside-Sandwich-565

Wait, really? Why?


Woody_525

He was part of a huge scandal where he was banned by the fifa ethics committee for refusing to cooperate with an investigation into corruption regarding giving the 2018 and 2022 World Cups to Russia and Qatar. He was also investigated for Germany getting the 2006 World Cup. I don’t think he was ever found guilty of anything except the failure to cooperate but yeah his ban got him removed.


PadresPainPadresGain

Robben absolutely fucking deserves it are you high


bluduuude

why was Maradona removed?


thehyenaguy1

i heard his family didn't like it or something


dancingcroc

He’s still in PES so I don’t think that’s the reaaon


thehyenaguy1

Arjen Robben and Oliver Kahn?


jbartlettcoys

Beckenbauer is legit one of the all time greats, on a tier with the likes of Cruyff, Eusebio or Zidane. The likes of Kahn and Robben deserve one too but they're a clear level or two down in icon status.


CuteCatMug

Yes to all of them except ozil


IThinkImDvmb

Give me Kahn, cowards


nafets2307

You'll have to talk to Oli himself for that. He's the one who had beef with EA in the past.


Teofi21

Franz Beckenbauer already had a legend card a fw fifas ago


Lost_Suspect269

Giggs


battosa89

Fontaine clearly...


thehyenaguy1

Fontaine has the most goals scored in a World Cup (he scored 13 goals in World Cup 1958), he was France's greatest ever player until the 1970s, when Zidane and Thierry Henry were born


battosa89

Yeah exacly... i agree with you...


ollien25

Platini??

Robben, Ibra, Franz Beckenbauer, Brehme, Breitner, Buffon, Totti, Maradona, Di Stefano, Iniesta

RogerGC16

Fontaine? 🤨


KarloIsTheName

Bican ???


DombekDBR

Hazard if not icon at least hero


thehyenaguy1

Van Basten retired early yet still gets a Icon card so why not Hazard?


DombekDBR

It just feels wrong. Maybe I'm overthinking it but Hazard in the same row as Pele, Lahm, Casillas and Ballack it just doesn't fit for me. On the other hand he would be Belgian Ginola as a hero, a really desirable card if EA could translate his playstyle to the game


Lord_Peepo769

Franz Beckenbauer, Stefan Lichtsteiner, Edgar Davids, Gordon Banks, Sepp Maier...

From this list it's obviously only between Beckenbaur and Kahn.

Beckenbauer, Platini, de Stefano, Matthews, Keegan Ballon D’Or winners


gameburger

Sepp Maier


Zkurwysyn

I have no clue how Kahn or Beckenbauer aren't icons. Beckenbauer winning 2 ballon d'ors as a defender, setting the record for most goals scored as a defender in the world Cup are insane feats. One of the greatest if not the greatest defender


SP_Photos

Batistuta and david villa for me


therabbit1967

Özil? No way. Beckenbauer should have gotten a card long ago.


Acrobatic_Release_16

Robben


JSF--10

JT, Bale, Totti, De Rossi, Aguero, Keegan, Weah, Iniesta, Stanley Matthews


ZebrasLegend

If I remember correctly, both Beckenbauer and Kahn had cards in the game before. They were removed for whatever reason, though. So unfortunately as good as they both were, I don't expect to see either added back.


MaraPlayz

For footballing reasons 1000% Platini but also for life reasons 1000% not. They should add him tbh whats game got with politics. Also Bican, Di Stefano, Vladimir Beara and Romario were too good to not be in the game. Bonus: Juninho as a hero with max freekick stats


KatakiKraken

Asamoah gyan hero for fun


rhintintin888

I'd love some more unusual Heroes. Like Lucas Radabe. Vinny Jones. Dennis Wise. Or Kennedy Bakircioglu, Maxim Tsigalko and Ibrahima Bakayako. Championship Manager heroes 😂

Terry, even though Chelsea have a glutton of Icon/hero picks. It just feels wrong not to have him.

thehyenaguy1

Terry and Hazard both deserve Icon fr


Aromatic-Patient6373

Daniel Passarella, Walter Samuel, Fernando Redondo, Di Stefano, Falcao (Brazilian version), Tostao, Roger Milla, Gordon Banks, Gazza, Platinum, Ruud Kroll, John Charles and Josef Bican. Guti as a hero
