Hey this is really amazing how EA contiuously mess up the Team rosters.
I mean
In vasco de gamma their is no Romario
In the Argentina team
Claudio Lopez,kily gonzalez,gustavi lopez and they are not on the team,
as well as clubs like Feyonard is not in the Dutch league>?
Rivialdo is way overrated
and bastistuta and so many other players are underrated.

And another thing
wasn't there supposed to be
60 international teams
with teams like Jamaica and uraguay
and stuff?
i don't see those.
Does anyone know if this is in just the warez version
or if its like this in the full?
cus if it is
i am not buying fifa2001

I feel the exact way! I cant believe they screwed up the lineup again! the argentine national team roster looks way out of wack! I mean who is Cagna or contero or PAZ?!?! Its just pathetic. Rivaldo and Roberto Carlos are way overrated!

Everyone else are rated in the mid 40s, but of course rivaldo and R. Carlos are in the 50s


another shocking discovery was that Hagi of Galatasaray is rated 51.
And the other Romanian Popescu is rated 48.....WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY THINKING?

I THINK THEY SHOULD GET SOME KIDS LIKE US TO WORK WITH THEM IN MAKING THESE GAMES. THEY ARE TERRIBLE AT MAKING A SOCCER GAME

It is not amazing because EA make the same mistakes every year. They even don't konw (or care) what soccer is. Why would you expect they would take it serious for the team rosters? Such minor mistakes and their breaking promises reflect that they DO NOT
take serious to their product and their customers. EA just give us One piece of sweet
but tons of ****!!

Damn right yall...its seems EA has exteremly poor info..you all put in players that retired since 98 from the national team.
I mean some players don't ever play on the team.
Does anyone know

as well as many others..

Can somebody tell me the starting 11 for the Greek NT? And their ratings? And maybe the subs also?

Please, thanks Chris...

I still don't have the game but I'm sure that the rosters of the brazilian teams will be completely wrong. In ALL versions I was unable to recognize at least half the players on each team. And, boys, I know a lot of things about brazilian football! I just can't believe how EA can be so imcompetent (if this word exists in english...) on rosters. They are ridiculous on this. I just ask myself why the hell I still buy this game...

They've always done a poor job w/ rosters, so it's no surprize they screwed up again. What is great, are the graphics and gameplay. And they gave us the ability to change ratings w/ limits. Unfortunately, they still have this "Bankroll" crap. It's a feature of the sport they should leave to the makers of "Championship Manager," b/c EA is completely out of their depth with it. I tried to mimick the real life signing of Baggio to Brescia (he was out of contract but they still have him on Inter). Apparently, in F2k1, Brescia "cannot afford" him. That's stupid and frustrating. Great strides were made graphically to the point where it just about makes up for it. I guess adding all the accuracy of rosters etc. will be left to us but I hope that sometime soon, I'll be able to pay $40 and just play the freakin' game. Over the past 4 years I've spent more time editing it then actually playing when all they have to do is hire 2-3 fairly competent researchers or ask us to submit info for free.

The inaccuracy of the Rosters amaze me! I wish EA would explain this...in the development process - when do they create the rosters? Why don't they update the rosters again before release? It's not like the rosters are top secret info...shesh, just go to soccerage.com and you can access tons of teams around the world with their Current rosters!

IN ANSWER TO ALL THE INTERNATIONAL ROSTERS BEING WRONG, IF EA HAD PUT INTERNATIONAL SELECTION IN THE GAME LIKE IT WAS IN FIFA RTWC 98, YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE KILY GONZALES, ETC IN THE ARGENTINIAN TEAM!

A BIG F*** OFF TO EA!
