I think you should be able to create new kits for you in manager mode for a fee of around $50,000
1) more stadiums
2) show da reff
3) better grafics
4) have international tournaments ( Copa America, Copa Oro, UEFA,ect.. )
5) maneger mode with national teams
6) better celebrations
7) some reggeation music
i gues that would make it totally better
I have PS2

1) I don't take money from the sponsors

2) I shoot out and the commentator says "great save by the goalkeeper"

3) The pre-season friendlies are placed after the end of the period

4) I win a game and afterwards i am asked what this defeat mean to the team

Since 1998 i bought 5 Fifa and 3 NBA if you don't do good job for PS2 just tell us to buy PS3 at least, to not loose our money in games which have a lot of mistakes...
Steven Crowley
Oh Yes And More Stadiums eg. City Of Manchester, Ibrox, Goodison Park :)
Steven Crowley
Visible Referees and Linesmans.
Be able to be a chairman and start off with amount of money so you can uy a small club then when your club gets bigger and better sell it and buy an even bigger club with the money until you the richest chairman.
Manager Mode
1. Manager to be sat on the bench watching the game
2. Walk to the touch line to shout out instructions to team or an individual player
3. Play as a created manager or an existing club manager (Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Roy Keane, Marco Van Basten, Fabio Capello, Luiz Filipe Scolari etc)
4. Argue a decision made with officials (Why was your player sent off? Why was the opposing player not booked? Why didn't you get a penalty etc)
5. Press interviews involving players your interested in signing, new signings, players you have released etc
6. Play match or watch from the bench
7. When you create a manager chose 3 goal celebration for different occasions (Late Winner, Derby Match, Main Vivals such us United Vs Liverpool Arsenal Vs Chelsea, United Vs City etc)

Other Stuff
1. Interactive Kits (Usual = Red Top, White Shorts, White Socks. 2nd Choice = Red Top, Black Shorts, Black Socks. 3rd Choice = Red Top, Black Shorts, Black Socks etc. Same for away kits and Choice of keeper kits - United home keeper kit is blue but gets a big confusing when your playing Chelsea and their in home kit too)
2. Be A Pro... For a season not just "Offline Training" (XBox 360)
3. Be A Pro... If your chosen player is injured you can not change players. You watch from the bench and go to physio etc until your all sorted and available to play again
4. Different injuries. Players occasionally break a leg or a foot. Show your players injury as a medical report such as x-rays and scans
5. Visable officials
6. Subs warming up on the side line.
7. CELEBRATIONS!!! Put decent and more updated celebrations on (eg. Nani flips, Rooney pulling his ears and puffing cheeks, remove shirt and go mental for a late winner in BIG matches)
8. Argue with the ref. Different buttons for your reaction (A = Calm, B = Argue amount of times foul commited, X = Ask for player to be booked or booked again - Ref may react by issuing yourself with a card depending on your official and game)
9. Use of camera to put yourself in the game as a created player.
10. Selection of 200 most popular surnames in the UK to be used for your created player so commentators can comment on you as a player
11. Choice of commentators
12. More interactive fans
13. Create a team, kit and a stadium (More detailed kit designs)
14. View your chosen teams "medals of honour"
15. Longer and more detailed presentation of cups (Premiership, Champions League, FA Cup)

WATCH A FOOTBALL GAME ON THE TV AND TAKE HINTS FROM THE REAL GAME, REAL PLAYERS, REAL MANAGERS AND MOST OF ALL, REAL FANS!

IT IS US WHO BUY THESE GAMES AND PAY YOUR WAGES... BRING A FEW OF US TO YOUR STUDIOS SO WE CAN HAVE MORE OF AN IMPACT ON THE GAMES WE PLAY. ITS US WHO CAN MAKE THE BEST FIFA GAME AS ITS US WHO KNOW WHAT WE WANT
I´m from Brazil and I think that´s important have the possibilty to create any teams and leagues that you want. Here in Brazil(A large country and the best soccer in the world), we have a lot of regional leagues and we only can play with 30 teams. I have a XBOX 360 and I only can play in sunny days, why?
I think that some importants Stadium must be on the game, like the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro.
This year the trainning mode is poor.It must be increased.
ill start by what you need to add:

-dives they are essanciel to the game its called football theres some bad play and some good play
-the offsides are a bit ridiculous i meen i always get on offside when my guy is on the line usualy what happens is my guy is not offside but the red line is so i dont understand that
-make the powerful free kicks easier to score the noral ones are perfect but when u add power (on xbx 360 lb+shoot button) the keeper always does a miraculous save!

now some questions or some facts that could bring alot to the game:

-is an xbox 360 or a ps3 capable of knowing what is a brilliant goal and what isnt?
if so, you NEED to add goals of the season
-when you watch a match on tv and a player misses but not by much a goal and the game is still playing (could be a save etc..\) when you finaly reach your stopage time (could be a throw in) they show the action of before try doing that if you can.
-add more cu scenes e.g when i take out 3 players for subs only one apears
thats unrealistic plus its always the same cut scenes make alot
-u have to add more goal celebrations some are pitifull like that punchin in the air like a criplled man is stupid look at nanni when he scores or martins the have celbrations!
-when a players played well in a match e.g nanni against arsenal,he received a huge aplause by the crowd add that aswell
-your goal is to make the game realistic right? then the minimum is to add a decent crowd not 5 men with a white t shirt tucked in!
add a massive crowd with replica shirts that stand up when theres a good actions that celbrates when u score a goal etc.. please please please add all this if you can it would make fifa 09 game of the year if you add all this they wont be any compition with pes anymore your victory is in between ur hands my padowons!!!!
More celebrations eg. Raul,Drogba,Van Nistelrooy,Robinho,Lampard,Adebayor,Totti,Crespo, all have great celebrations that I would love to see in the next fifa
The Over-arching theme is REALISM

1.) Stadiums; while the Stadium detail is so much better this year in 08 it's not the quality that is lacking, it's the QUANTITY! I am sick of tired of playing every away match at "Estadio De Las Artes". Big Clubs all need to have their home stadiums on the game. White Hart Lane, Espanyol's venue, City of Manchester, Ewood Park, Goodison Park, Juventus' venue, French Ligue 1 stadiums, and try to get some MLS stadiums, Pizza Hut Park, Home Depot, Columbus, RFK, it's the only thing that keeps me from playing MLS teams!
2.) Edit player in Manager Mode
3.) More responsive skill moves, I expect to do a step over when I hit step over, not a 360 turn that will cause me to lose possession.
4.) Get the UEFA sponsorship done! I am sick of playing for the ECC title.
5.) I don't know about on XBox but on PS3 the manager mode's day/night games are completely linked to the Kick Off day or night games. If you play a friendly between LFC and Man U and select "Night" then all of the games in Manager Mode are at night.
6.) Weather; this is the first FIFA where it doesn't rain or the pitch isn't wet. "Overcast and no rain" needs to be integrated as well, the last time I checked it's not that sunny in England or France.
7.) "ECC" games need to be defaulted to under night.
8.) Player likeness, Few FIFA 08 players truely resemble their real-life counterparts, better digital photo-imaging needs to be introduced.
9.) Competition in the league needs to be tougher in every mode from Amateur to Pro. I shouldn't be 12 points ahead in the league in the middle of November. The CPU should react to this like it does in Tiger Woods.
10.) Roaming Ref, I need to see the ref when I am playing.
11.) A more responsive first touch; if I want to change directions with the ball (eg with the right analog stick) when I change the ball shouldn't shoot 10 yards in that direction, the body should just naturally move with the ball in a change of direction.
Ezra Blumenthal
also...THE REAL NETHERLANDS SQUAD!
i think you should be able to do swap deals like in real life and you should be able to bring people in and send them out on loan any time in the season like in real life
Ezra Blumenthal
1) Hand Balls
2) Keep advantage by quickly starting a set piece, free kick or a quick throw in (like in winning 11)
3) Realistic Stadiums
4) More crowd realism (flags, songs)
5) CHAMPIONS LEAGUE PLAY IN MANAGER MODE
6) more accurate player rankings
7) International manager mode
8) Referee/linesman on the pitch
the players should put their arms up for a pass, to demonstrate inocence once they have made a tackle or frustration on a poor pass. also of the ball control would be good. maybe change the right anlogue stick to this function so you can control 2 players at a time
i think u guys should have more new cups coming up and get more different scouts better and young. Get the argentina league n all over the world leagues like chile, ecuador n other countries. Have the UEFA cup. and please let us coch the internationls and have that on maneger mode and put the world cup thats coming up in 2010 it would be better to put that on maneger mode and different kinds of footballs during maneger mode i mean i love fifa but we need more cups, more better talent , better scouts and different around the world not the same scout from the same place. would you the sub 17 and 23 internations on maneger mode as well. and let it have the 2nd divions for every league like mexican league. love the graphics but would be better if it can get a lil more realistic. The controls were better from 07. oh yea and some good rap music would be cool. better far away shots and cures well thats all i can think of but i hope u can put this things that i said thanks for letting me speek out love u fifa.
Have reserves and youth in team on manager mode. Also in the transfer market you should be able to buy and sell coaching staff.
I think you need to introduce the CIS cup to the scottish league, and add the lower divisions to the scottish league, because playing aginst the same teams every season get a bit boring. Also some of the more important leagues such as Ukraine, Russia and Greece, or at least put the big teams in the rest of the world league. Also i think you should be able to edit all the teams, changing thigs such as strips, and stadiums.
I can't believe that people's ideas for fifa 09 are hardly to do with the game play. I have stopped playing fifa because of the unfairness of when the play swings to a team even without them playing well.
You score the other team scores straight away unfairly. the game wants a goal scored before half time, 8, 9 minutes of overtime is played until a goal is scored.
there seems to be vulnerable times of a game when a goal is likely to be scored. the goal can be rubbish but if a poor attack is done before half time more than likely a goal will be scored. a good attack and shot is not rewarded and the way goals are scored are usually done in the same way pass across goal and it gets tapped in even if 3 defenders are inbetween the the two attacking player the ball seems to ghosts throught the defenders to the attacker. A great goal if scored in real life but most goals are not scored like that.
So what fifa 09 needs is a game where the best player will win. I know in the real game a weaker side can win and goals can be scored when the play isn't with scoring team but this a computer game and there are some things that cannot be replicated in a computer game
teams to be far more even no ridiculously good strong players that can run through tackles (no skill) and most importantly the play should not swing to a team it should all be equal or an option that makes it equal.
my friend can't play liverpool v Man U in '08 because of the difference in quality between the teams. we just want a fair game!
u should be able to creat a player and start in the back streets with mats and work you way throw the ranks. a good example of this is the free online game (jumpers for goalposts) something like that idea. it would be CLASS.
Oh Yeah And Maybe The Chairman Could Have Like 200m Budget And He Gives The Manager A Certain Amount So You Cant Get In Debt As Easy
1.Add More Lower Leagues Like The Ryman Leaguee (My Cousin Plays Init ) And In The Other Leagues Aswell Like A Serie C Or What Ever Its Called
2. Make The Players For Lower League Side faces Realistic
3.More Deacent Youth Players
4.International Manager Mode (World Cup Euro 2008 )
5.Better Overalls For Players Some Are So Under Rated Eg Almunia , Sagna
6.More Money In Manager Mode Eg Plymouth Argyle
7. Changing Kit In Career And Sponsers
8.A Longer Transfer Market
9.Oh Yeah And A Carribean League Like The Jamaican League + African Leagues
Shankley_Boys
Even more in-depth manger/ career mode, like pre season games etc. maybe make it more like FIFA manager.
Pompey_Boy's idea of Superstar mode will be awesome, madden is one of the worlds greatest games because of the superstar mode so it could make FIFA even more popular.

THE_TRUTH
A superstar mode like they have on the Madden NFL game will work really well. Also making stadiums for the teams in the Premiership i.e Portsmouth-Fratton Park and Manchester Cty- The City Of Manchester Stadium. Making fans sing more chants will be good for the next game, like Liverpool fans singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" and animating the crowds more for the sings e.g. Liverpool fans all holding their scarfs up and waving flags at the Kop end.

Keep up the good work guys, it is a great game.
fifa on the ps3 is the best gr8 work guys
however, the soundtrack is rubbish
and also, i play a bit in the serie a, i love the growth system but it is so hard for up and coming stars to become good, players like Juan vargas and Hamsyk r like in the 50, it needs to b more accurate
And also i am a Roma fan, u r far to harsh on our players....how can Doni not even b in the 80...dida is look at him, rubbish, and also aquilani, taddei n panucci r better in real life than the stats u have given them, please give the players in the serie a the apropriate skill stat
my only problem with the game play is mainly free kicks, so hard u need to be able to practise them with a wall, not just 1 on 1 wit the keeper, n i like the sound of wat marty magoo suggested with the use of controls 4 free kicks
thanks gr8 work guys love it heaps
u need to have a create a team option on the xbox 360 version
Again just mentioning things that have already been mentioned, but the ones that i think would make a valuable addition to the game as many opinions should be sought in order to get a good variety of choices.

1. Definitely upgrade creation zone, it is VERY difficult to make a player even resembling yourself. With creation zone, allowing more options for boots and player wear without having to unlock everything. That is not an incentive to play more, it's just irritating when you have no options. Many more hair styles and celebrations. Giving players the ability to change the look of the player between matches so you are not stuck on one look forever, who doesn't change their hair style for an entire season?
2. Stadium creation i think would be a great idea, on UEFA Champions League they have the super stadium. If you could create stadiums like that for your own club and have fans wearing your colors, allowing you to create banners to be held up in the crowd. Choosing songs and chants for your fans to use.
3. Linesmen and referees is one thing that fifa has been missing out on, they are a great addition in PES, shame the game sucks to play. Along with player and coach reactions on the sidelines to events transpiring on the field.
4. The ability to manipulate players such as diving if you feel a foul has been committed, or try to run your way out of a tackle if you think you can create an opportunity. Also having the ability to take exception to harsh tackles, getting up in players faces and letting your feelings known. Maybe having this affect players composure, if you manage to get the other players riled up and drop their composure so they don't play as well under pressure.
5. Someone said the ability to recognise other players intentions such as a good pass, recognised with a thumbs up or getting upset if they do not do as you ask. This can affect the players composure and team chemistry.
6. Pitch variations according to the weather and surface type.
Maybe something like a story mode. where you take a player through the ranks and different clubs. love the idea of dodgy offside and crap pitches. maybe something like that artficial grass in russia. Oh and make the exp work better. if a playere has a craker of season then he goes up dramatically, because at the moment they all seem go up levels roughly the same
Make fifa O9 grafics better then fifa 08 grafics make the referices more meaner make them give more yellow and red cards.Also and put a lot of new stadiams like the mexican stadiam Corona of Santos of the mexican leage and the stadiam azul of Cruz Azul in the mexican leage and the stadiam 3 de Marzo of Tecos in the mexican and stadiam Volcan of Tigres UANL and the stadiam boombonera of toluca of the mexican leage
Make international manager season, also during manager mode you should be able to control and run the practices like juggleing, scrimmages, ext. Also make it realistic on the field showing all refs, players expressions and people in stands. There should be more features in create a players and there should be a create a stadium.
Richard O'Brien
How about implementing the "back-pass rule". I hate it when players pass the ball to their goalie and he just picks it up. I really think this is something that should be and could be implemented

Regards,
Richard O'Brien
Show Refs, linesman and the cup being lifted, more leagues like the blue square premier
create a stadium, more boots,press conferences,highlights from other leagues
more stadiumsloads of other stuff
Use of the Sixaxis on PS3 in FIFA 09 for freekicks. Turn Left or Right for swerve, Also perhaps when playing long through balls have use of Sixaxis for backspin or topspin of the ball.. I'm starting to sound like tigerwoods now.. But you get the idea.

Manager mode should be just like creating a player, you are essentially creating a manager so why there more create options for your manager and not just their name, is beyond me.

Be a Pro is great, but I'd like to see more players involved or perhaps introduce 5 a side football again as I remember it was on Fifa previously.

Also with Be a Pro, you can't give credit to players, but you can call for a pass, go for goal and play a through ball with the d pad. I'd like to see one option for giving player credit for his through ball for example where the player does a thumbs up or when giving the ball away you see the player screaming at him.

There's some good suggestions on here as there is, that's all I've got to add for now.
oh yea and make it so you can make your own stadium and choose how many people average there woulde in the stadium also international manager
i think that the next fifa should have the leagues :blue square premier,blue square north and blue square south because my home town from blue square north BARROW AFC
you should put the song klaxons golden skans cos that sounds so fifa and its good
1- in manager mode make it so that you can actually be real manager like alex ferguson.
2-make alot more stadiums on the xbox 360 cos im a spurs and was very disappointed with fifa to find out that white hart lane was on every other console apart from next gen consoles
3- A few more leagues PLEASE
4- more proper player faces cos its really annoying to see ur favourite player ruined by a weird face I HOPE YOU DO THIS! THAT WOULD MAKE ME SO HAPPY!
an after thought-

Splitt screen when your in a promotion decider or relegation or title clash, i.e seeing the rival teams goals or incidents that change the course of possible relegation or promotion

Goal of the month in manager mode
1)all premiership stadiums, maybe even some lower league stadia such as Selhurst pk
2)Crowd reactions such as walking out early if your getting stuffed 5-0, thats real football
3)Visible referee and linesman and occasionally getting in the way or knocked over like the real thing, and occasional referee mistakes i.e. Graham poll
4)Better celebrations when you go up or win a trophey i.e. confetti and medals PES does this already and its pretty good
5) Manager and bench reaction to incidents maybe a scuffle or two between both benches
6)More indepth commentary that doesn't tell you the match is still close when your 5-0 down out halftime
7)Do away with the prematch sequence when players are squatting in the tunnel being forced onto the pitch by another player, no team does that, in turn change the tunnel area's coz they don't all look the same
8)Dodgy offside's
9)Better weather conditions, boggy pitches making the ball either stick or skim at speed sometimes causing keeper mistakes, lumpy goalmouths causing the ball to skip as it reaches the keeper maybe causing a miskick
10) the option to dive in order to get a penalty or freekick in a good position
oh ye add better commeraty and fc united
6. be able to design your own kits in manager mode after a certain amount of years when u change sponsers.
7. add the world cup and champions league,
8. add more sponsers at the beginning of a season.
9. make the tables more realistic, i play with a 4 1/2 star team vs a 1/2 star and i lose 2 - 0.
10. add the youth acadamy section like on the psp version.
11. add more anerna selections, have training gounds instead of the arena selections, e.g carrington
12. have the players change hair styles in bettween matchs.
13. have the option to add a picture to created players
14. that most i can think of
1. you should add more stadiums like the city of manchester stadium, hamdon park, ect.
2. add more leagues. like the russian league and greek leagues.
3. add more players who are young and go up to decent ovr rating so u are not playing with crap players after 5 years with a team and all the good players are about 30.
4. be able to build and design your own stadium in manager mode.
5. be able to create your own teams and players.
6. add the option to have friendly's before a season like on the psp to get your team moral up.
5. have a ref and linesman
6. be able to des
bl sq prem north and south included on fifa 09 i would love it
have lewes fc on fifa 09
Players faces more unique and realistic to themselves.

Chamionship in perticular.

VISIBLE REFEREE RUNNING AROUND.
you need to put hand ball in the ps3 version of the game
i think u shud have a search bar and different options when u want to get a player, instead of searching through all the teams.
pooper scooper
u shud be able to extend ur stadiums, and then set where the away fans sit , with a demand meter so you can get the biggest crowds and most revenue at different matchs.
u shud be able to set ticket prices to get the most revenue as well. jus say if its really cheap, then u will get a massive crowd but not much revenue, and if they are really expensive, u will get low revenue and low crowds, so u have to set it appropriately
best damn fifa player
more leagues. champions league uefa league. more stadiums. more country teams from africa and asia. more secound division leagues. should do more your one teams.
do your stadium for your team. african clubs more !!! and Idont like that that im playing manager mode and aim like playing barcelona and when the league starts Im first BUT MADRID IS LAST ITS NOT REAL!! AND BETIS IS SECOUND ITS NOT REAL LEAGUE !! ou and Be Able To See The Managers And Assistant Managers
Be Able To Get A Ref On The Pitch And See The Linesman. in managermode you can be like finlands manager and you can play mm tournaments
there should be a mode were you could be like any player or make a player and like try to get them on a pro team and try to make it on to the starting eleven team. In that mode they should be like on a college team and you have to get scouted in order to make it to the pros.
Don't make drogba so fat and robinho should be alot faster.
In manager mode you should be able to train your players and train on one player if there not doing so well.
I got some suggestions i like to make to put onto Fifa 09.

1. Chamionship, Premiership, La Liga and International stadiums.
2. Players having there own unique individual running styles.
3. Referee and linesman shown in game play.
4. show managers giving advice to players or shouting if teams losing and show the actual subs on bench.
5. Handball
6. 2 player in arena.
7. Create your own stadium.
8. Diving
9. Waterlogged pitches.
10. Advanced manager mode where you actually get to be the manger.
11. More players detailed.
12. show players own celebration.
13. Training mode.
14. More life like crowd e.g more chants celebrating when there is a goal, and booing when someones been hacked and reff has'nt seen it.
15. International manager mode.
16. show teams holding trophy up when winning competion.
17. show players coming of coach at start of game.
18. On manager mode be the manager on the sideline, and you get an option of what you want to say .e.g pull back, where's the defence, well played unlucky, team press ect.
19. Goalie comes up for corners.
20. Pitch invasion after winning trophy
21. Life like kicking styles.
22. Just make it the best game ever and kick Pes Ass
I like FIFA games, but i want to have bigger EMOTIONS when i play the entire manager mode, it gets very repetitive after a while, the celebration after winning a championship or other cup is very poor i hate it is like this since FIFA 2005 or 2004, and it;s so stupid when you see in the last match of the season when you are champion that a team that finished in 12 place in the table getting sad like in the ECC final.
The 2002 World Cup was the best, you can inspire from there, in that game i felt that i was playing at a FIFA World Cup, the celebration after a goal was fantastic and with that wonderful music it made my cry, you realy felt the importance of the competition.


More stadiums and kits: all from the EURO 2004 game, Braga was my favourite, from WC 2006 Germany, in Holland Philipps Stadium of PSV Eindhoven and De Kuip Stadium of Feyenoord, in Spain of course Santiago Bernabeu get it back please, El Riazor Stadium of Deportivo la Coruna, El Madrigal Stadium of Villareal, Jose Sanchez Pizjuan of FC Sevillia. In Italy Artemio Franchi Stadium of Fiorentina and many more like Ataturk and Olympic Stadium in Athens. About the kits dont lock the 3rd kit in Fan Shop, and introduce the 3rd kit of every team and make them much more vizible like in FIFA 2003.


New Leagues: Grecee, Rusia, Ukraine, Romania,Serbia, Bulgaria,Argentina.


The referre please make them wistle, and the assistants rase there flags at offsides, substitusions, and faults.

The suporters more fanatic with flags, confetti,drumbs,trompets and many more real songs that every team has.


The bench of substitutes and the manager at least like in the NBA games if not better, i haven't seen any activity on the bench since FIFA 2001, some substitute doing some exercises or something like that.


In the manager mode sometimes the games shoud be cancelled for heavy snow, fog or interupted by a huligan.

More extras with Highlights of the big leagues, top ten goals,interviews with football players and many more.


The comentary more real with real facts like in FIFA WC 2002.


A super INTRO movie like in FIFA 06 " Game after game, after game, i realize now what is the most important thing in my life FOOTBALL" . Now that was an intro not like the ones in FIFA 07 and 08, it was a big step backwards.


FIFA was the first game i've played on the PC so please EA Sports make a wonderfull game that will give me EMOTIONS every time i hear " EA SPORTS - It's in the game".
