EA are putting 12 international womens football sides into FIFA 2016, which is good.
But how will they rate them? The top women's side should have a high rating but if that rating is a kin to say your average Premier League side is that realistic? Or do you keep them separate so within the women's side they're properly ranked. And if you do them the same as the men's side what sort of standard is women's international football? I have no idea! Has a professional/international women's side played a men's side recently? What was the result?
Will the players be as strong as well just so they aren't looking like they're being sexist? It'll be interesting to see how they do it.

People are bound to be pissed off either way (for the reasons you say), should be a separate game. Will they allow men vs women? Will the stadia depict lower attendances?
Bloody hope Andy Gray isn't commentating!

It is a potential minefiled because if they're honest they'll be accused of sexism, if they're not then they'll be accused of not making it realistic.

This is going to be very interesting.
I can't see it being used very often but I support it's inclusion, if anything it'll get more use if they allow men vs women as people will do their best to troll someone by beating them as a women's team. Can't see that happening though.

How will they factor in "that time of the month"...?  |

And just when you're suffering with injuries and suspensions in career mode a message alert pops up...
Your star striker has been ruled out for approximately 9 months due to Pregnancy.

Concerning sexism, EA will be accused of it no matter what they do. The stats will either be too positive or too negative. I'd prefer them to be realistic, 40-50 ratings and mostly near empty stadiums. I'd like the lower leagues to have realistic attendances too infact.

Doesn't make sense to put them on. Will be used as much as the Saudi Arabian league. Even women would prefer to play with men footballers

If you're going to be brutally honest women's football, even at international level, is a low standard. I actually support women's football but honestly it's non-league stuff.

I would imagine that the women's teams in it would be comparable to the League 2 clubs on the game. I would say 0.5-1 star, that's if they are on the same rating level as the men's teams. |

Women's club football isn't stunning but the national teams can be very good, obviously physically there is no comparison but technically there are some very good players... Alex Morgan for the USWNT isn't just incredibly hot but she is very, very, very good... |

They can put all the gimmicks in the world in, PES will always have better gameplay.

presumably, for the sake of realism, the goalkeepers will be utter shit

Alex Morgan for the USWNT isn't just incredibly hot but she is very, very, very good... The problem is the basis of comparison. Women's club football is absolute dogshit. So even if women's national football is very good compared to club football, it doesn't really say much. Another thing that hardly makes me want to watch women's football is that England are ranked 6th in the world. I've actually seen the women's team play several times and they were fucking useless. If they can be that shite and still be 6th in the rankings, again it doesn't say much for the quality of the women's game. |

Physical speed and strength will be lower
Skill level can be on a par
Goalkeepers can be lobbed from the 6 yard box

If they were in the same game mode as men 40-50 would be too high - that's the level given to a lot of league 2 mens players. I think it's extremely unlikely that they will be rated in comparison to men, I expect the best players will be rated 90 odd in comparison with each other and it will only be possible to play a women's team vs a women's team. |

I didn't realise the league two players were rated that low. 15-30 for the women then. |
