there should be a mode that allows you to manage an international team after 15 seasons as a bonus to see if you can manage them to the world cup and all its glory.
plus you should rework the graphics system fifa 06 left fifa 07 for dust with its graphics.
also a-league and im sure im not alone here but WHERE IS IBROX the greatest cathedral in all the world.
and a trading option should be included in the transfer market.
in manager mode, if u want to sell a player, then you should be able to change there price.
When your in a season mode, and you are in a tournament (FA. Cup, Champions league. ect...),. When your playing, in a match, if another teams scores in another match, it should appear at the bottom of the screne. (ive always thought that was a good idea), +, when you or another team scores music should be played in the background echoing in the stadium with the crowed chearing.
More stadiums should be added, like the Everton stadium.
Gabriel Massa
In the international PLEASE put the team of MALTA, and the clubs that are in it. EX: Birkirkara, Sliema, Valletta, Tarxien, Floriona, Marsaxlokk...ecc...

Another idea is:
When the window of TEAM OF THE MONTH comes, after it, it should come GOALS OF THE MONTH. It gives you the best 10 goals of the month, puts them in a window, and if you click on it, you can see the replay of the goal. That would be very cool! :-)
All Stadiums would be fab
-ideas for FIFA08:
18. Better/more realistic player ratings: Rooney as good as Ronaldinho? and better
than T.Henry that's not real. H.Larsson, G.Mendieta, Rui Costa, R.Pires, Boca Jrs
entire team, Saviola and Milito are very underrated. Ronaldo, Raúl, Rivaldo, Figo,
Nedved, Joaquín, Deco...are very well rated, EA should rate all players with this
accuracy.


19. Include Fareplay as a rule.

20. Introduce notmeg tricks.
-ideas for FIFA08:
13. More defensive skills (this is got to be included for 08 because the defensive options/controls of 06 and 07 are to poor): already we have the options to do a sliding tackle and press attacker, but EA should make use of the right analog stick(dribbling tricks) for defending to they could introduce new options: defensive fakes/faints, grabbing players if they're in front of you(although these would cost a yellow or red card), clossing players legs if you think the oponent is going to try to nutmeg you.

14. More specific body type features: leg lenght,arm lenght,neck lenght,shoulder widht,head size,head lenght,head widht etc...(this would make players more recognizable)

15. More accesories options: wearing six/five wrist bands on the same wrist(Valderrama...), bigger collars and jewelry, introduction of tatoos(Beckham,Vieri...), untucked jerseys(G.Best,R.Baggio...)....

16. Improved graphics: the graphics of FIFA 05,06 and 07 are great but i'm expecting movie like graphics in 08 for "PS3".

16. Fans throwing balls or other things(flare guns...) to the pitch when they get very upset about something.
-ideas for FIFA08:
9. Player tendencies: All players have different tendencies, some try heading the ball whenever they can no matter if the cross is low or high, others prefer doing a volley if they can but they always play to their strenghts and i think EA should apply something similar to 08. (you'll never see Ballack doing a volley cause he's going to try to score it with he's head)

10. All the best national teams and playing qualification games for the World Cups.

11. Champions league and UEFA.

12. More dribbles: Separating dribbles skills into different types, skills for step-overs, skills for the Roulette/360's, skills for pull backs, skills for fakes, skills for lane changes, skills for flicking the ball up, skills for heel passes and shielding skills. If these could be done it would help greatly because it would give more personality to the players and reality to the game, something similar should be included in 08.
-C.Ronaldo/Figo=great step-over/fake/lane changing skills.
-Riquelme=great shielding/lane changing/pull backs/faking skills.
-F.Totti=great fake/flicking ball up/heel passing skills.
-Zidane=great Roulette skills.
-ideas for FIFA08:
6. Trading players.

7. The Argentine league.

8. Specific form of rare players: There are aging stars like Rivaldo, Figo, Nedved, Mendieta, Ronaldo, Raúl, Giggs, H.Larsson or Maldini that are slowly decleaving in form but these rare players sometimes rediscover their old form for short periods of time(weeks or months). For example if Rivaldo starts scoring two goals per game he would be back to his best or in 2005 when Mendieta started making assists consistently for Boro he had rediscovered his old form for a almost a season long. So i think the loss of form of an aging world class star should be bended at least for short periods of time: Zidane was the best player at the World Cup but his performances last season were regular cause of he's age but despite that age he managed being the old-Zidane for a few weeks in Germany.
Jasont Tomlinson
I think there should be music playing while in training mode, like FIFA 2001 had.
Also training should be in Manager Mode and players develope while training.
-ideas for FIFA08:
1. Customized movements for particular players, C.Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, P.Nedved, T.Henry, Riquelme, Figo, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, R.Carlos and classic's Valderrama, R.Baggio, Pele, Maradona, J.Cruijff and G.Best.

2. Edit boots mode, Adidas, Nike, Puma, Diadora, Uhlsport, Asics, Mizuno, Lotto and Reebok.

3. Classic players shop, Maradona, Pele, Di Stefano, J.Cruijff, G.Best, R.Baggio, M.Platini, Eusebio, G.Muller, C.Valderrama, F.Hierro, Z.Zidane...

4. More realistic comments by the commentators: information about certain players, how much goals a player as scored in the season, info. about teams, number of assists a player has in the game and the season, more specific predictions about what's going to happen during game play...

5. Receiving awards: World player of the year, European player of the year, South American player of the year... league awards: Top scorer awards like "pichichi" etc...
FIFA07 was a very fun game to play but it's to easy i always win all games in world class like 6-0 or 10-0. So i think it needs to be much harder and realistic, things to improve: 1. space: the first flaw i point out is all the space your oponent leaves you, it's so much space you have time to think what your going to do with the ball after receiving the ball when in real life you've got think before receiving the ball because of the pressure(ex. of this is when i get the ball with Ronaldinho completely alone when in real life Ronaldinho touches the ball and he already has at least two players on him). 2. skills: I can dribble past two defenders with anyone from Figo to Emerson, there needs to be a clearer difference between skilled players and defensive players. I can create equally well with C.Ronaldo or Riquelme and these two are very different players, Riquelme is a playmaker and C.Ronaldo plays in the wings, Riquelme's got far better vision than C.Ronaldo but C.Ronaldo can dribble pass three defenders, there's got to be a clearer difference between different type of skills, as there are creative skills, defensive skills, individual/offensive skills and ovr good skills. 3. passing: The passing is really well done because you need to look at the player your going to pass the ball and this is how most players pass the ball, but there are a few players that can pass you a through ball without looking at you: Riquelme, Valderrama, Ronaldinho, Figo, Nedved and Mendieta are very few players but however it would be great if it can be fixed for FIFA08. 4. header: The headers are to weak i've missed easy chances with players like M.Ballack and H.Larsson, these players can score from distance with powerfull and accurate headers. In FIFA07 everyone it's bad at headers and that ain't real, it's something that's got to be changed for 08.

i think they should make the manager mode and use real money instead of points. they should have every national team, because people enjoy playing with there country it gives them pride wipping on some1 with there country. it should have way better dribbling skills. because i like to get fancy crossing some1 over not just a couple of moves. there should be all the famous moves. it should have a clutch factor, or something that gives players a surge. improve on graphics. i love how the player progresses please keep that. make sure there is evey international country because i love playing with all different countries
1. An addition of the Australian Hyundai A-league in the League selection would attract more Australian gamers and non-gamers because they could use teams they are familiar with.

2. Australian Hyundai A-league stadiums such as Energy Australia and the Telstra Dome.

3. Addition of A-league fan sections like the Newcastle Jets Squadron.
Zechs Marquise
There should be snow field pitches and then the option of wearing gloves(nike) and also the referee strictness should be able to be altered. Also in champions league matches the ball should be the actual adidas chmpions league ball that is used in real life.
1. A very intrikit create a club
2. Design a staduim
3. Have all clubs stadiums
4. Have all national teams, like in FIFA World Cup
5. Have an automatic squad updater via Xbox live and such
6. A extreamly realistic croud
7. Be able to pick sponsors for the front of your kit
More small leagues from around the world... like Croatian Club teams.
Hi guys!!! I like EA's FIFA Franchise Series, but I really enjoyed in 2000-2001 because it was the last time the Greek League was included in a FIFA game. I believe that if the Greek League official returned to FIFA then I believe a lot more Greeks and other soccer fans would return to EA's FIFA games and with fans returning a lot of more sales would be made.

Thanks
Include all southamerican leagues, Copa Libertadores de America and Copa Sudamericana. Remember that all better players are Southamericans like Maradona, pele, ronaldinhio, matias fernandez, ronaldo, messi, riquelme among others. that would cause that the market of draftees is but real at the time of transferring america's players towards Europe or other equipment.
Gabriel Massa
In the transef mode, can they include that you swap players for free. erxample I swap Inzaghi from my team AC Milan, for Ronaldinho of Barcellona (they have to be the same level, coz this is just an example)
add more national teams such as netherlands, ivory coast, ghana, t&t etc. like world cup 2006 game.
EA games opened office in Russia. It's good. I hope EA's games will be cheaper... And I have good advice. Russia has many good programmers, who does Russian Premier League for FIFA and FM during five years. They do it very well. And I advice to connect with them. They can help you todo Russian League to FIFA and FM. (fifasoccer.ru)
in fifa 08 you should surely be able to create your own stadium. because inn fifa 07 i have created my team with players like henry and stevie g and was devastated to no that there was no stadium i thought adequete for such a damn fine team.

also make the game harder to score in. i have found the game to easy even world class with the worst teams in the game. any way those are my inputs hope it gets through.
I also think goal keepers should be a bit clumbsy with the ball very rarley as they would in real life, Like miss a straight foward pass and goes behind into the goal???
I like the idea what Stuart said, There should be more life in the crowd, and i agree 100% there should be a UEFA Champions league???
in the game there should be more nice jersey kits because the ones on the game are so plain and game modes and all the internatinal an clubs in the world.
Gabriel Massa
Can you please include the maltese teams. International : Malta
Clubs : Birkirkara, Sliema, Valletta FC,
Mqabba, Floriana, Marsaxlokk ecc...

Who lives here in Malta knows what I am talking about, because only in Fifa 98 Malta was includes, and only International. And the Stadium could be added to : Ta' Qali Stadium.
1) More national teams from Asia (e.g.: Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Lebanon, etc)
2) Opportunity to download special patches from EA Sports site to change transfers in Fifa 08 while there are transfers in real life ))))
3) Let the fans to throw something to the field ))))
add on every stadium for every team!!!!!!!!!!!!!! especially bristol rovers' memorial stadium
Made in Career Mode UEFA Champions league and more leagues
1)choose advertising sponser
ex) ManUTD ; Vodafone -> AIG
Chelsea ; Fly Emirate -> SAMSUNG MOBILE

2)choose uniform style
ex) Adidas Old/New, NIKE Old(2002,2004)/New(2006) , UMBRO ....
Sleeve/Sleeveless

3)add Korean N-League(National League , That is Korean 2nd League)

4)add Team President mode
ex) choose Bill Gates(MS CEO) --> Bill is in charge of EPL Reading
choose Roman Abramovich(Chelsea Team President) etc.
I realy believe that in Fifa 2008 I'll see Russian Premier League
How about bring back the old free kick system that was in 2004? It was much better than the new system.
Also you seem to hit the post and the cross bar very often.
Also in the transfer screen can you please make the following.
1. You are able to tranfer multiple players in the one tranfer move. Eg: 2players for one player.
2. You can cut players to your squad and send them to a free transfer data base.
Include more Asian teams in the game. Also please include the Australian A League TEAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stuart Mclean
i like the make your own stadium idea and the fireworks at finals and big games. but what fifa has been missing in recent years is a good crowd, its just so 2-D and life less. also bring in judgemental refs. like the home side get the rub of the green at 50/50 decsions, more like real football. being able to soo refs and linesmen would be a great boost aswel. and maybe when you hit a screamer of a goal thats flying into the top corner from the moment its left the boot maybe the game goes into bullet time to add to the suspence and drama. i liked the youth academy idea of 2007 but this really needs to be develped and thought about more. the next installement of fifa could go soo far if it was thought about correctly and anybody who say pro evo is better obviosly doesnt liek fluid football and prefers seing robots run on a screen, and yes i do own both fifa and pro evo
Perhaps you could be able to select your club, and Choose another clubs stadium for your Club... E.g ...Chelsea - Hamburg
I Wouldn't mind seeing some new leagues, Argentininian, Croatian, Russian, or Even Ivory Coast.
Also, To be able to earn points to buy New stadiums in Fifa Shop???
bitte macht endlich ein live ticker ins spiel der während den spielen erscheint.
macht endlich eine tabelle bei der Cl.
schnee im spiel und stürmisches wetter.
spieler/trainer modus
animierte zuschauer und mehr leben rund ums spielefeld.
vieleicht wieder der trainer aus dem cl spiel aus der saison 2004der im bild erschien.
bei transfers soll der gekaufte spieler nicht immer die nummer 2 haben.
uefa cup und cl finale sollten in einem anderen stadion sein. nicht in dem der heim manschaft.
einen spieler modus in dem man einen einzelnen spieler steuert über mehrer jahre.
man sollte auch mitten in der saison als trainer zurück tretten können.
man sollte während seiner karriere auch als national trainer agiernen können.Ähnlich wie sensible world of soccer.
Chris Pearsall
I haven't read all the comments, so forgive me if I'm reapeating this.

My request is simple. Please make the Xbox360 version as detailed as the PS2 version. Being a fan of an English Championship team I was gutted to find that after spendind £280 to upgrade to Xbox, that there are only 5 leagues and a handful of stadiums available. PLEASE FIX THIS FOR FIFA 08!!
There, i made the 800th comment. Could i reccomend a thing in fifa that the players have calm, sad, bad, anngry, happy and exiting moods. and if they tackle, they can tackel very agressive or very calm, depending on the mood.
A new feature: To create your own staduim
1) Choose the turf and the shape of the disign.
2) Make it as big as you want.
3) Add as many people as you want.
4) Cusomize it with special building tools like colour of the seats, the roof, and the lights.

Another thing is in the manager mode: You choose the price of the tickets, including behind the post, enclousure, millenium stand and vip. And people can complain about it and say if it is too cheap, good price of too expensive.

The crows should hold flags, light small fireworks and sing to the playes (all of the players)

In the finals, the stadium could have a bit of fireworks in it.

The referee should blow the wistle when there is a goal. And when they score, the stadium director or the person who speaks when there is a sunstitution. EXAMPLE if ronaldinho scores, the man should shout out load "RONALDINHO"
please include the chilean an argentinian league please and fix the trick button
I think Ea should put more stadiums in the next game,Maybe putting every premiership ground on there this would make the game feel more exciting and realistic
I think EA should include stuff like the champions league, uefa cup, euro 2008/world cup depending on the year all into one game. In mamager mode players should be rewarded for scoring goals. There should be a more noticable difference in playing with the worst and best players.
José C. Topete
The game should have some sort of SUPERSTAR MODE, come on!!, you have a lot of material for this... a lot of people are in support of this idea, ive been wanting it since i starded playing fifa and the manager modes became available. A much more detailed MANAGER MODE also, add some youth teams of 1st division teams or add at least teh 2nd division of some leagues like mexican, brazilian and spanish lueages. Add the argentina league, japanese league, and not only one of the leagues of the polls, but all of them, add the southafrican league. The Jalisco Stadium, it's the second most important stadium in Mexico and a lot of Guadalajara and Atlas Fans have been wanting it... Thank you and i hope you show interest in the want's of the latin american players.
When the match is over the referee doesn't blow his whistle. I watch him and he never moves
There are some bugs that must have to be fixed:

- The Edit Players mode, dont have to exclude a particular player (example Guille Franco’s Argentinean nationality cannot be changed to Mexican), with this cannot be added to the Mexican national Team.
- Please put the Second Name or First Name in the Jersey of Bofo Bautista (in his Jersey he have the name of “Bofo My Angel�) dont like this.
- Please add more leagues from South America and Central America such: Primera División Argentina, Liga Chilena de Fútbol, Primera División Uruguaya, Colombian Mustang Cup, Liga Paraguaya de Futbol, Primera División de Costa Rica and Primera División Peruana. FIFA Games need more leagues from America.
- More South American, Mexican and USA Stadiums.
- Add Dynamo Kiev, Red Star Belgrade and some irish soccer teams.
- Add Emelec, Bolivar, Municipal and Motagua soccer teams.
- Add J-League.
- Add Russian League.
- Add Helenic National league.
- Add Australian League
- A Better creation Team mode,,, with more details.
- And more unlock features as more Alternative soccer jerseys.
Oh yeah:
1.Refs, linesmen real and raise flags/hands
2.transfers:player plus cash, swap players, loan to permanent staying option
3.Ball can't go through corner flags, ref
4.commentary must not be delayed five seconds after something happens, different commentators instead the same two, spanish comentator yells GOAAAAAL!
5.diving option(risk/reward)
6.stadium editor
7.celebration after winning cup (team kissing it, lap of honor)
8.After you score a goal, press a button to take off shirt in celebration, but get a yellow card
9.weather change in games
10.hard nets and soft nets for different stadiums
11.rivalries become heated and revenge on field with red card tackles, injuries(such as AC milan Inter milan)
12.Holland needs to be in the international teams
