FIFA 17 will feature all Premier League managers, just announced during the EA press event.

Will they update after one of them gets fired?

Yes. EA FIFA producer confirmed it.

Klopp on the sideline should be good fun.

Anyone else thinks that the Frostbite-Faces look a bit "waxy" like the puppets at Madame Tussauds? ^^

Having the BPL managers in the game is great, IF there's some real substance behind it, namely real life tendencies/tactics(that actually make a difference in game), stories built around hirings/firings, things like that. If not, and career mode remains as dull, lifeless, and vanilla as always, I don't see the point.

What about other leagues? La Liga? Bundesliga?

Relegated teams managers would be nice with Villas Di Matteo and Magpies Benitez

I usually play a BPL season at some point, so obviously this will be cool in that regard, but it seems like it will be a bit jarring if you're playing as a BPL team against a team from another league, and only 1 manager is shown. Are they putting in generics for the other leagues?

Personally, I don't really care if there are authentic managers on the sidelines - especially if it's only in the BPL and all other teams have generic managers. However, I'm hopeful that this means that we have more options when it comes to creating our manager for CM (outside of skin color, build and 3 clothing options)! But I'm not gonna get my hopes up...

I wonder how that will work. Would be interesting to know in career mode what happens when one is fired? Hopefully they pop up on another sideline. I also wonder what happens with the manager who manages the team you take over. Like when I start my Chelsea career where will Conte go? Probably into thin air.

It would be funny to see Arsene Wenger on the sideline friggin with the zipper on his coat.

Even though he's not a premier league manager, I'd love to see Joachim Low included in the game. They could mo-cap him doing things like picking his nose or sniffing his hand after sticking it down his pants. Unparalleled realism.
