"The same answer then is the same answer now. Every year, a vast quantity of suggestions for inclusion comes into our studio. We have to whittle it down to what we can make in one year. It's a case of prioritizing what needs to be done, and then we do our best to knock it out of the park in whatever we're doing. But [women in the game] is always something considered in some shape or form, and it's not to say it won't ever happen." - EA's David Rutter

I think it's clear to see that this should have been included in FIFA games for awhile now. I guess the voices are getting too loud for EA to ignore. Hopefully they act on this inclusion sooner rather than later.
