Purchasing this was always a 'gimme', but the inclusion of the reall team for Glasgow Rangers is the best news ever from Konami.

Never owned a soccer game, but I do like the sport. The World Cup Qualifier between the US and Trinidad was a good one last night on ESPN2. We got kinda screwed by the refs, but so is life.

Just as I'm bored with your insightfull post....

Winning Eleven is the best soccer video game around.... EA's Fifa is good.. but the lack of real improvements ove the years has doomed the franchise.

I'm just excited that this series will make it to number 11.
