FIFA 00 (Sol Campbell)
The turn of the millennium and who better to hit the cover than Sol Campbell. It marked the beginning of the circular/oval tendencies in the design of the cover and did it very well.
FIFA 01 (Paul Scholes)
Vintage Paul Scholes on the cover of FIFA 01. The rest of the graphic lacks some imagination, with white really taking over and a lack of exciting and vibrant colors.
FIFA 02 (Thierry Henry)
This is a simple cover but it works and came during a golden period for Arsenal. Iconic.
FIFA 03 (Roberto Carlos, Ryan Giggs, and Edgar Davids)
The real hero is Edgar Davids. The Dutchman has his famous playing glasses on and looks like a straight boss. Good luck ever topping this cover FIFA!
FIFA 04 (Alessandro Del Piero, Thierry Henry, and Ronaldinho)
Any cover with these three-star players would just about me a sure-fire hit.
FIFA 05 (Patrick Viera, Fernando Morientes and Andriy Shevchenko)
Patrick Viera is looking okay at the front of the image, crossed arms with the captain's band on, however Fernando Morientes and Andriy Shevchenko is just looking a bit strange. Thank god for the Spaniard's hair.
FIFA 06 (Wayne Rooney & Ronaldinho)
Something about Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho running through the rain just gets you fired up. The one downfall, the weird appearance of the Brazilian's belly button.
FIFA 07 (Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho)
Not quite as good as its predecessor, but FIFA 07 was still a solid cover. A very serious looking Ronaldinho is the seller, while it was just the second cover of many to come for Wayne Rooney.
FIFA 08 (Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho)
This was FIFA's first array into the world of the PS3 and although it was a solid idea, the cover of FIFA 08 didn't quite hit the mark.
FIFA 09 (Ronaldinho and Wayne Rooney)
We love Wayne Rooney and Ronaldinho, but by the fourth cover that featured just the two of them arrived, it had gotten just a little old.
FIFA 10 (Wayne Rooney)
The designers played around with some effects that were similar to FIFA 08 for the background and throw in a pumped-up Wayne Rooney on most versions of the cover and you an impressive cover. The one above is the Australian version with Tim Cahill.
FIFA 11 (Kaka and Wayne Rooney)
Crisp and artistically, FIFA 11 was a great cover. Kaka makes an excellent appearance and although Wayne Rooney had been used a number of times the color of his Manchester United jersey works well on the cover.
FIFA 12 (Wayne Rooney)
This is a solid cover for a number of reasons however it lacks some originality. The design and image choice is very similar to that of FIFA 10 and means the two covers are almost identical. It also has some similarities to FIFA 11.
FIFA 13 (Lionel Messi)
It's tough to go past Lionel Messi in all his glory. Another simple cover, but one that puts the focus on the athlete and in this case the Argentinian maestro Messi. Classy design, great image, very good cover.
FIFA 14 (Lionel Messi)
Another cover that had all the makings of something excellent but just got let down by image choice. The background design is slick and classy, however, the chosen picture of Lionel Messi is a bit bizarre.
FIFA 15 (Lionel Messi)
FIFA 15 was a simple design but one that did the job. Some nice design work on the background and the introduction of the yellow text for the numbers was a nice yet subtle change.
FIFA 16 (Lionel Messi)
Messi again graces us with his presence, the background is done well, with the light coming from the back properly highlighting the great man.
FIFA 17 (Marco Reus)
The idea of the cover is alright, with the Borussia Dortmund star with his crowd in the background, but the execution isn't quite there.
FIFA 18 (Cristiano Ronaldo)
Cristiano Ronaldo made his FIFA cover debut on FIFA 18. It marked a change from Lionel Messi, who had dominated the cover of the game for a number of years.
FIFA 19 (Cristiano Ronaldo)
Cristiano Ronaldo is a beast of a player but this weird running pose doesn't do him any favors. It's almost there for FIFA 19, hopefully, they deliver in spades for FIFA 20.
FIFA 00 (Sol Campbell)
The turn of the millennium and who better to hit the cover than Sol Campbell. It marked the beginning of the circular/oval tendencies in the design of the cover and did it very well.
