Im missing online play? (UK PC version)

[TheCleanerLeon]

Hey people, first post, I think im missing online play from my game. I have 05 and 06 and they both have 'EA Sports Online' which takes me to my account etc.

I bought the game hoping that it would be decent, but in failing that in some degrees (as we'r all aware of), id hoped id be able to play against some other humans to make it interesting again, but i only have direct ip online game modes available. Is it theer and im just being dumb?

screens:





as you can see for yourself, its not there compared to 06



If its been addressed already please point me in the threads direction, a search for 'missing online' didnt show up my issue

try connecting to the internet then boot up the game

are you sure you installed EASO when you installed the game?

If you arent sure try reinstalling it with EASO

You have a UK copy of the game like i did last year, europe does not have online mode, i ordered my US copy this year instead.
