on manager mode make it so you can only chose a bad team to begin with instead of being able to choose a team like Barcalona in your first year as manager, just like in the old ones- it doesnt make sense. thankyou.
goalies are way to good. make it easier to score
untucked shirts for ps2 please
i think that in fifa 09 for ps2 u should focus more on the player graphics and leave the stadiums as they are. also you should should make the kits look better and have untucked shirts. and the ankle tape should be better and have indoor stadiums. please could you do this for the ps2 version
- Please add more stadiums. Especially in the Netherlands, England, North America and Australia.
- Argentine Primera Division, South African PSL, Russian Premier League, Ukrainian League and Romanian Liga 1.
- More national teams like Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Colombia, Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Fiji, Solomon Islands and Luxembourg.
- Why isn't the Dutch national team licensed?
- Career Mode!
- Include the World Cup and other compititions.
fifa 08 is great.i just think the nets in the goal frames could look better.they should move more when the ball hits them.now they barely move like they are made of a heavy material.basically i want baggier nets.also have all premier league and la liga stadiums to make the leagues more realistic and a stadium builder so if u support a smaller team u can try and build their stadium.also a proper training mode.the arena is great but i like to play around and take free kicks with a wall trying to block it.thanks
FIFA09 has next-gen version on pc
In IRAN in last years we are waiting for IRAN league .
and thankyou for reading.
just FIFA

players should beable to fight with the ref if he makes a bad deicson
christopher roberts
i think in manager mode or outside manger mode you should beable to create your own stadium
Lester Kanali
I think the next fifa 09 should have full team customisation by making things such as badges sponsor logos pitches and every thing else in general. You should also consider the making of things such as personal player moves and team moves employing the use of one button to perform one whole team move such as in wwe where you make smucks using one button.
more realistic gameplay, better celebrations, and more harder shots!

Hello EA! I have a idea for you. Please put in FIFA 09 the Croatian league "HNL". Thanks
when a guy gets injured, and you sub him, either stretcher him off or have a medic help him hobble off. and why isn't there a ref and linesman on ps2 that you can see while your playing. the only time you see him is when there's a foul. Also have a fourth official who holds the electronic board. fifa 08 is realistic, but it's not quite there...
when a player gets injured, they don't just hobble off, either a medic goes to him or he's stretchered off. If someone's broken their leg they can't walk to the sideline to get treatment. also design your own kits in manger mode (maybe have the sponsor logo you choose on the shirt?) thanx.
I want that I am the Argentine league it seems to me that there are many who want her well thank you very much for allowing me to express farewell
pre game warm ups as well (different drills to mix around with to get ur team ready to play) kinda like practice laps in nascar
sorry guts full of ideas tn
more unlockables too
- unlock hidden stadiums and all the boots and balls
- create ur own kits boots and whatever
- create ur own team like in hockey or football franchises
- also how come football and hockey has everysingle stadium accurately created for every team and for soccer their are only 20 or so
- medics ---better injuries and variations depending on injury. concussions from being hit by ball etc
- more action and realistic mistakes all around the pitch and especially with the goalie
- more stadiums atleast one for every league in the game
- all national teams (atleast all the teams that qualified for the most recent world cup)
- national team career in which u can pick your players and lose players due to their on going club campaigns
- defined trick stick so you do the trick u need when u need it.
- better free kick engine. the old free kick systme where you judge the arrow-then the curve-then even the ball spin. now its a hit and hope it goes in (guessing game and not so much skill involved

stay classy

remove the ability to quit a online game on purpose!
womens football would be good.
handball decisions.
wrong decisions
Streakers on pitch (just for a laugh blurred out obviosly)
make a adult rated fifa 09 and include the swearing that happens in real games. also make a younger version for the kids.
have a mode where you can sign players to make up your own squad for team and able to play online with that team.
online cup tournments.
online instant relys and easy to upload them amazing overhead goals that u score
Quick freekicks.
Easier to aim from free Kicks
Manager things to boost teams morale when loosing game.
Design own kits when in mnager mode. Playing 15 seasons in the same kit aint realistic.
I could go on lol still fifa 08is really good. just 09 has to be better :P

thanks for reading
With the practice or training mode instead of having the orange and green kits for the teams, you should just have their real training kits.also put in some new training modes like a 5 on 5 half court match with your team that you chose for training.
Hi EA i think in fifa 09 manager mode the manager should actually be able to manage his game and sit on the sidelines plus why should you have to play the game you should actually be able to view the game from the sidelines and manage team management by actually talking to the players and the telling the fourth official to make a sub instead of going into start to give you the realistic feel of being a manager.Please consider my suggestion EA!
i think in fifa 09 in manager mode you should be able to actually walk about your stadium and look at it from the inside and when you are managing a game you should actually be able to manage it from the sideline and watch the game from the sideline instead of visual sim because i think it would make manager mode a lot more interesting and you would get a better feel of the game
1)Blue Square Premier Division
2)Quadrants in the corners of Old Trafford
3)All premier league stadiums
4)Reserve League
5)realistic looking Michael Carrick

Every time a fifa game comes out the first thing i look for is the argentina league, and its never there. its one of the best leagues in the world! way way better than ireland's and australia's and korea's and many many others. and also please stop using ronaldinho on the cover. And who wants to see a young american player who isnt even good yet on the cover when you can have someone like Messi or someone else on the cover?
sébastien bender
I agree with anonymous his ideas are great but I like to ad some other leagues and things like:
-more stadiums
-the russian premier league
-belgium's 2 class
-real life referees
- moves for defenders
-the 2 ideas from anonymous

sow that's it
thanx

Women's football for FIFA 09 and Futsal (indoor soccer)
graphics for all players on game better,better goal celebrations n uptodate stadiums the ratings of players is daft how can roysten drenthe be 67 and vincent kompany be 89 make it beta!!!!!!!!!!!!
please try to get better graphics for the 360!!! also an idea is to have a creer mode were you make your own player and you have to be a free agent and get hired by some team. then you have to play as be a pro. then you can build your rep and make money and later in the game you could move into better teams in the premiership or in la liga. also you should make the player development a bit faster than the previous. i liked the growth of the fifa 07 for the ps2 it was quite fast and it made manager mode better because you could buy future stars that were still really cheap. i have read some of the other suggestions and i agree with the country manager mode were you can lead your team to the world cup and also the america cup, gold cup, euro cup, etc. you coudl add training sessions to your team and this could also improve the player development. you could add more celebrations that are more reallistic such as celebrating with the guy that gave you that perfect pass or center, you could also celebrate with the whole team. also what you could add is the option of letting the keepers shoot free kicks and penalties, this happens all the time in real soccer (Chilavert scored more than 50 goals in his career as a goal keeper). you could improve the comentary by adding more commentary and make it more real time. you could also improve the camera in the be a pro mode so that when you kick the ball in a center the camera follows the ball. i say this because when you do a center the camera sticks with the player that was selected so an improvement would make it easier to score. i know this is difficult but i believe you got time. as a costumer i like fifa better than the competition because its got more teams and better graphics. but if you dont come up with new ideas you could loose to the comp. so what i recomend is to come up with something never seen before in the genre ike you did with that cool pro camera and be a pro offline training. well i hope to see some of this ideas on the next FIFA games and also hope that my ideas helped on the devolopment of the game. please contact me if you are going to use some of my ideas because i would like to know.
1. Telstra Dome(Melbourne), MCG(Melbourne Cricket Ground), Telstra Stadium(Sydney), Ataturk Olympic Stadium(Istanbul-2005 UCL Final Stadium) and Sukru Saracoglu Stadium (Istanbul-UEFA Cup 2009 Final Stadium)should be included.
2 .Argentina, Romania, Japan, Greek, Turkish Division 2 League should be in it.
3. Manager Mode for national teams so you can select your own 23 man squad, qualify and enter into major tournaments, and make players to hold your countries citizenship so they can play for your country your managing.
4. Need more goal celebrations and the medal ceremony should be more realistic.
5. Need more countries in the International list.(Solomon Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, Ghana, Serbia)
6. Songs should be better
7. For creating a club you should have a broader options on making the logo and uniforms and also have sponsors on your shirt.
8. Creating your own stadium.That means we get to select peices from the options they give us and we choose which one and also wer the entrance to the field.....
For fifa 09, who cares about additional leagues. If they aren;t there already, they probably suck. Focus on Gameplay.

Gameplay, gameplay gameplay!
The juke controls with the right analog stick should be changed. The direction you press on the right analog to execute a specific juke move should always be the same, not relative to the direction the player is facing on the field. Its simply too difficult to execute a double step-over lane change if you have to constantly be aware of the players changing positions.
When you input a command to juke, (e.g.) down, up, up on the right stick should do a rainbow flick in whatever direction the player is facing on the field. The command shouldn't be left, right, right if that player makes a small turn right. Its just too difficult to do consistently.
Also, auto-marking and tackling on defense should not be the same button as pass on offense. Shielding should be a bigger part of the game. Some players, especially the best the world, can run at sprint speed with the ball right on their toes, like Leo Messi for example.
Once dribbling gets above a 90 or so, the distance between a player and the ball as he sprints should decrease, not stay the same. Ronaldinho should appear to glide with the ball gracefully.
Player traits need to have a bigger impact on the game. Players with Flair or high determination should be able to have a noticeable effect on the game. If a star player is playing well, or momentum builds enough, the game should go into slow-motion for for one big play. e.g. Gerrard gets the ball played to his feet, 30 yards out, (The announcer yells "he's got some space!") and then the game slows for few seconds. If you decided to shoot, it should give the nearest defender the chance to make a block (if he was near enough, that is) and deflect the shot out of bounds. This slow motion should allow you to temporarily control everything down to the mechanics of the shot if you are on offense, and the mechanics of the tackle on defense. The right and left triggers could control either foot, so if you were a defender trying to stop Gerrard, you might have to guess which way hes going to get the poke on the ball you need to stop the shot.
hey
fifa 08 is a hit
in 09 there should be some rooms where refs are really people online
that would be great but they should only be allowed to ref if they have a certain amount of skills points and they have mastered the game
i think that on the fifa 09 ps2 version the players shirts should be able to flow freely and not always tucked in like on the xbox 360 version where shirts can hang out if you make a tackle or just want them to and in training mode have a warm up. i think that the lower league clubs shuold have better graphics. when you win a trophy you should get medals and prestented a cup. please do this for fifa 09 for ps2
Im English and know what im talking about. England is the home of FOOTBALL 1) When a league is won the trophy and medals should be presented
2) The champions league music should be played at the start of games
3) Design and build your own stadiums in Career mode
4) Be able to sign players from rival teams eg liverpool signing a Manchester United player
5) Players being a bit cheaper so they can be bought
6) Peter Crouch is under rated a should have a better rating
7) NO DIVING as peple have said its a problem in real life football already it should not be encouraged its bad for the game
8) weather such as snow
9) Euro, World Cup, African league of nations Americas cup
chris beswick
can i just say that, EA are not going to put the world cup into a FIFA game as then there would be no real point for its actual world cup game. who would buy it then?! my only request is integration of FIFA 09 with FIFA MANAGER 09 if you own both titles, like i do with 08. this would make it alot more enjoyable as then you have the full manager experience with the ability to manage national teams as you can on MANAGER 08. hope you put my idea into account EA, and possibly give me credit for the result ;)
Show the ref so people can actually see the ref on the game
1. plz put the players actual boots.
2. update player file, E.g. if Tevez went to Blackburn you would do it.
thx for reading, do it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think on be a pro you should have 10 v 10 and you can choose your own players from different clubs like in a match you can use ronaldo and lionel messi
.make manager mode online
.be able to use created players on be a pro
.on be a pro you can use the keeper instead of player

.video of man u v bayern munich highlights in 1999.
.also be able to be 1 player all season
.not to mention bring up keeper in 80th minute and up when drawing or losing like on ps2 but on xbox 360.
.involve more tricks and the better the player the better the skills look and what he does.
.put tevez atleast to 87 or 88
.also get real madrid players better like nistelrooy .robben,robinho,sniejder,julio baptista and shevchenko ,pizzaro and santa cruz not to mention man city are amazing so get them higher.
put cristiano ronaldos to his proper boots and don't ruin every odd fifa date.

> FIFA Life -- A football game with real life simulation.
> Indoor Football -- Futsal.
> More Leagues -- More junior leagues.
I think Fifa 09 Needs to include more arab leagues like el ahly and zamalek from Egypt. Arabs are huge fans of Soccer, Why not include arab leagues, It will boost the game's sales. Also bring back the indoor soccer stadiums, those were awesome!
Yankee Footballer
Stadium Editor for FIFA 09 please!
Add womens soccer with german, swedish and american national team, and their leagues.
when you win a legue or tournement the presentation should include more lifelike scenes such as trophies being presented or medals being given out. they do this on pro evolution soccer and it does look quite realistic i am sure fifa can achive this on a better level.
Before I give my ideas,well done on FIFA 08.
GREAT GAME!

I think that you should be approached by different teams instead of picking the job.
You should be able to do MANAGER MODE with national teams so its more realistic.
I think you should bring back the pictures of the players in the TRANSFER MARKET.

Thanks for reading.
I hope you do whats requested.
It is very important to allow users to be able to choose the way they way. Especially, the D-Pad control. Many people are now switching from Pro Evolution Soccer to play FIFA but found that it is now a great game and could even be greater than PES. If users can have more options to customize their button configuration, then, FIFA will become the ultimate soccer game. (I'm now very overwhelmed with the direction where FIFA is going, and starting to like FIFA more than PES, even tho I have been a serious PES fan since it was on Super Famicom console when it was once called "Perfect Eleven")
So please let D-pad control be usable in FIFA 09, i trust that lots more people will choose FIFA over PES, hence, gaining a massive market share, and become the best soccer game!!!
jason osborne
i think if you players argue with their opponents you should be able to fight them just like on ice hockey games. this would make the game so funny but also it would be realistic because players actually fight with each other in games.

go on add this one please.
You should add more leagues and also add more stadiums in countries such as Australia and New Zealand. You should also be able to have the be a pro mode like the superstar mode in Madden. FIFA is awesome and you only need to add these things to make the game the best ever.
jason osborne
1. more small leagues such as the comfrence leagues
2. i think at the beginning of fifa 09 you should create a player and it should join a football school and he can only become profesional if he gets scouted by a team. that would be good.
3. indoor football
4. women football
better graphics with the fans and the players kits when they run, their kits should wave about.
5. when you make a team you should be able to design new kits with nike or adidas on it.
6. more skills
7.better soundtracks for example r and b or dance.
8. better goal scoring and better boots graphics.

this game would be fenominal if it had these things included. thank you all for reading this request.
