The game mode is pretty decent, allowing gamers to build their much-desired squad full of star from across various elite leagues.
The theme for Season 3 is "Back to the Clubs".
As the fierce battles of national pride come to a close, the players have returned to their respective clubs.
Once again, the battlefield shifts from international action to the domestic leagues.
