One of EA Sport’s newest features is the FUT Draft. It is the new game mode that tests your team building skills as you pick the best fit for each position from a five-player draw. After drafting a squad, you challenge opponents in a series of up to four matches to win big rewards for your club.

Now, what lies ahead for FUT 17 Draft? What new features need to be incorporated?

It’s clear that the FUT Draft in FIFA 16 was one of the most popular new modes for players to enjoy, but at the same time it wasn’t without problems either. Almost 90% of the time with Drafts played online, it would just end up being a match between two sides full of Ronaldo, Messi and all other players made entirely up of BBVA teams.

It was too common and hopefully EA are planning to change this trend with the FIFA 17 FUT Draft in September. Other requests that players have are to increase the pack rewards for playing the Draft in single player mode.

Prizes were usually a Jumbo Premium Gold pack and a Premium Gold pack, but we would like EA to increase the odds of getting say a Premium Gold Players pack and Rare Gold pack? It would certainly make the offline draft more appealing if they did.

Perhaps all you want to see is EA regularly giving out more free Draft Tokens for FIFA 17 than we have seen with FIFA 16.

What are some of your ideas relating to the new FUT Draft? Sound off below . . .

FIFA 17 has nabbed another feature from rival football game Pro Evolution Soccer.

The annual sporting sim will now feature Japan's top football league and all of its teams.

All 18 clubs from the Meiji Yasuda J1 League are coming to the game, including FC Tokyo, Vegalta Sendai, Kashima Antlers, Urawa Reds, Avispa Fukuoka, Sagan Tosu and Omiya Ardija.

There's also spots for Kashiwa Reysol, Kawasaki Frontale, Yokohama F. Marinos, Shonan Bellmare, Ventforet Kofu, Albirex Niigata, Júbilo Iwata, Nagoya Grampus, Vissel Kobe and Sanfrecce Hiroshima.

In addition to the league competition, FIFA 17 will include the J.League cup tournament and the Suita City Football Stadium, which is the home of Gamba Osaka.

J1 League teams will feature all of the authentic kits, logos and rosters, and will likely be updated as the season goes on.

Fans can even purchase content from the new Japanese clubs in card-based online mode FIFA Ultimate Team.

Senior producer Nick Channon said: "The partnership with the J1 League is great news for our global fan base.

"It adds authenticity to the game, depth and new content to game modes, and most importantly, it answers a big request from football fans around the world."

FIFA 17 will be released for PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Origin for PC on September 27.
