First of all - brilliant game. Sooo much better than pes!

I'm in my 5th season in EPL with Chelsea and challenge most years for all trophies, the problem for example is having a FA Cup game on a Saturday and also having a Premiership game on the same day, then the League Cup final the next day (3 games in 2 days). Surely there is a way for the schedule to automatically regenerate a more fairer fixture spacing when you progress further in the cups.

I have about 65mil pounds in the bank that I can't spend. I have completely maxed all the staff upgrades but the 'wage' restrictions mean i cannot upgrade players with the 65mil i have, this may need to be looked at.

More authentic & wider range of team songs/chants would be more than welcomed.

Not overly keen on Andy Gray's commentary. Martin Tyler is a joy to listen to.

I would like to see the Russian league included, possibly the Asian Champions league & many more of the African International teams. In Fifa 2010 there is no Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Ghana, Togo, Egypt and many more.

Authentic Managers on the touchline - imagine Rafa Benitez doing all those silly hand gestures & chicken dance that only seems to confuse his own players.

More authentic stadiums, I do like how we can now atleast name the 'default' stadiums for the smaller teams.

Diving? yellow cards for diving --- lets face it, its part of the game???

Keep up all the brilliant work that entertains all of us for many hours!!!
BE ABLE TO PLAY THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE IN TOURNAMENTS!!! AND HAVE THE TROPHY AND CELEBRATE
Add the possibility to change the uniforms during a game, also to choose the colour of entire uniform, such as shorts and socks.
i think when a tackle is performed wrong there should b a outbrack wiv players pushing eachover and gettin heled back........and bring back where you could run away from the ref like in 96
why does it seem like pretty much all the lower league clubs were founded in 1914
if you dont understand this then do a season in manager mode at any league 1/2 club and you will understand. sort it out fifa i mean offcourse we are all daft enough to buy the game every year and even though writing these comments has made me livid ill continue to buy the game evey year becasue of my love for football please if the designers showed some passion of what us fans want we would love you! and considering this is comment 12573 and most of the comments have 5/6 ideas on them it would seem that there are roughly 62865 ways to improve this game and what are we going to get some lies that the players look more realistic a change that no-one will notice and yet the game will brag about on the back you make me sick. please prove me wrong!
All Egyptians want the Egyptian Premier League and they want to team Egypt, the actual level is four stars or four and a half stars because the Egyptian team is embarrassed and Brazil defeated Italy and won the Cup Africa, with three times Why do not you put Egypt national team is the best team in Africa with the full Many standards, there are teams which you will and is not worth - Egypt and the mother of the world -

change goalkeepers so that those with lower overall rating make more mistakes like being out of position or dropping the ball. At the moment there isn't much difference between goalkeepers.
More stadiums
Russian and Argentinian league
Easier to score outside the box
More easier to score at corners and be able to choose witch players you want up there
Make the manager mode more realistic with interviews and question from the fans ect
Customize your manager and maybe even your own team
See the manager and the fans reaction
Make it so that the striker acctualy could win a challenge in the air, in the box. Because the defenders win that ball all of the time
when youve won a tournament / trophy there should be an animation of your team lifting the trophy before eather walking up the wembley steps or a podium on the pitch bring the game back to basics have less celebrations they are pointless just keep the really good ones like flips and the shearer etc and lose the average ones like the windmill what football players now days does the hold face, or bow etc get rid of them they are pointless anyways

and balls that you can choose should have characteristics. for example all the balls on fifa 10 are all the same ball just different colours but the balls should curve and dip differently some should be lighter than others etc just like in real life with the jabulani etc

oh and this is another flaw ive just remembered that everyone knows about but never brings it up. so lets put it into character ive picked up the ball with rooney from 25 yards out ive smashed a shot that is about 10 metres over the bar and the commentator says oh that might have even clipped the bar! what is it on about!

do u know what fifa is an absolute con ive bought the game over the last 10 years spending thrity quid each year for a game that seems to still have massive flaws surely my 300 pound investment in these games should go towards improving it and the creaters of the game need to give back to uss all who have all payed easilly 300 pound each on fifa games that improve slightly each year but actuall I think fifa 10 took a step back. why did the manager mode have a transfer rumours bit on it? i honestly couldnt care less if werder bremen are thinking about offering 7 million for roque santa cruz honestly if rockstar can make games like grand theft auto where the detail is just unbelievable then EA should be able to do this with fifa 11 all the english stadiums! for god sake its so annoying when i want to start from eh lower leagues and im constantly playing at ‘crown park’ and ‘football ground’ no excuses EA or whoever makes the game if rockstar can make a whole country you can litterally do anything in on a game then you should be able to make all 92 english stadiums in the english leagues considering you already have the biggest ones and you can also make room by getting rid of crown park and football ground (oh and by the way i hope the guy who thort of that name got a pay rise) so anyways in the end you’ll probably only have to make about 80 stadiums and most of the lower league ones look the same so have the same st up but put the clubs crest somewhere on the stadium and have the home fans whering there teams colours! honestly it seems that the games designers think that only neutrals go to football matches give the majority replica shirts for gods sake
should be able to play the training as in run n dodge n ball skills n weight lift n run on tredmil walk or run up hill all that sort of thing
Add diving...
And please add the great teams sort of like in nba games. italy, brazil etc all time greatest
milan, juve, bayern, man u, madrid also
This is would I would like to see changed:


- Analog player running tempo control. Its easy! We already have the triggers! The further you pull the RT or R2 the faster you run, the more you pull LT or L2 the slower you run. We should be able to go for an all out sprint, we can't really do that yet. This would be great and changing running tempo should be a big part of beating an opponent, like in real football! Add this to celebrations too.
- Make fouls occur more often when using standing tackles, maybe make the tackling system like in fifa 2004, where you had to TIME your tackles. Tackle strength modifier (on RB/R1) making you able to make a weak tackle to win the ball, which is less risky, or make a strong tackle to clear the ball, which is more risky. Standing tackles are far too safe in the game right now! Also make us able to give away penalties when doing a standing tackle, and make the referees give away penalties only if you commit a serious foul. In fifa 10, just barely touching the opponent with a sliding tackle resulted in a penalty! Make us able to block running paths and push and pull, like pull an opponents jersey or arm instead of having to do a sliding tackle to stop him, the referee should of course penalize this if it's being used excessively.
- You should add the composure meter and the aiming system from the world cup penalties to free kicks. More realistic ball curve when taking free kicks, especially with the driven shots! More quick free kicks as well as more realistic player positioning after "slow" free kicks. add quick throw ins! Let us change 2nd kick taker. let us change throw in taker. let us choose which players to put into into the box at free kicks, corners and throw ins. Let us changes team mentality (defensive, ultra-offensive etc.) during set pieces.
- Give us better control of where our player is heading!
- Make the keepers save more 1on1 situations. make them MUCH, MUCH harder to chip! Make 'em save more finesse shots and save less powerful shots and long shots. Make them save more free kicks. They get up fast enough after making a save (sometimes too fast), but make them sprint back in goal if the ball is still in play and make them better at saving consecutive shots. Make them be a little more pissed or sad with themselves and their teammates if thing don't go to good. make them look back to see if the ball hits the net if they're beaten!
- Make physical battles and tackles more, yeah physical, and add more tackling animations. Make the big and strong players win more headers and push away the smaller players.
- More powerful headers. better looking, more varied and more controllable first touches especially with the upper body.
- Make the shots more powerful when the ball is traveling towards the player kicking it.
- Make the skill moves less powerful.
- More team management options as well as more options in the manager mode.
- More frequent and more serious injuries, also let the players get injured during training in manager mode.
- Fix the issues with the advantage rule.
- More effecttive use of the D-pad, like having each direction open up a menu. Add on-the-fly substitutions to d-pad.
- Make us able to fake a foul, dive or whatever it's called. It is not sportsmanlike, but it is a big part of the game, and that's a fact.
- More stadiums. more weather conditions like mild, normal and heavy rain. let us choose to play in the afternoon and the evening. Add the ability for the weather to change during the game and make all weather types available for all stadiums. Make the ball bounce less during rainy conditions.
- More national teams and fight to get the Russian league in game!
- Make the fans more "alive", make them go "ooooohhh!" when a big chance is missed. No more hitting the post twice without any fans saying a single thing please!
- More highlights and instant replays. At least show all the goals after the match!
- Improve skincolors. Malouda and Maicon were black as night in FIFA 10, they aren't like that in real life!
- Get the right keeper shirts. All keepers have the same selection of 5 shirts in FIFA 10! Fix it!
- More player reactions like the keeper telling the defenders to start f**king defending!
- Make the referees stop giving cards when an advantage has been played, they don't do that in real life!
- More boots. More commentary names.
- Make the players have different height in the premade celebartions, and other "cutscenes". No more Ibrahimovich and Messi being equally tall please.
- More referee animations when giving warnings, cards etc. Maybe some players vs player and player vs referee arguing once in a while.
- Make referees and linesmen make mistakes sometimes on close calls, that's more realistic.


I know many of these things have been changed in the world cup edition - I'm reffering to FIFA 10.

about the new penalty system:
The goalkeepers should be able to save shots when just standing in the middle of the goal, if the shots are placed near him. Today in the world cup game I but the ball like 20 cm to the right of the keeper with a chip shot. He simply stood there staring at the ball. please fix this!
Personally I'd like to see players being available to be exchanged in manager mode.
A much longer Be a Pro, with more features and options.
Most importantly though - Diving must be introduced
- Refereeing errors (only a few in a game, but they are part of football)
- Handballs
- Players arguing with the referee
- Easier though more realistic to buy players in Manager Mode
- Being allowed to coach a country in Manager Mode
- Free kicks are easier to score, but not too easy obviously
Hi all i think the following would be good tweaks to an already great game let me know what you think.
1. On manager mode you should be able to choose a new ground when you upgrade it in the staff upgrades. Each ground should have a star rating and when you get say a 10 star ground you should have a choice of either Old Trafford, Wembley or San Siro and so on
2. In the arena i'd like to see the addition of other players so when you have a few friends round for a few games instead of everyone watching the first player you could have mini games such as knockout, heads and vollys, a horse type game for freekicks and a crossbar challenge
3. Classic XI should have a selection part like the national teams do as i personally get abit bored of the same old players each time.
4. Better control when the ball is in the air. i always have the problem of takin a goal kick and it bouncing up and the player puts his leg up and it just bounces off him which is understandable for teams like Northampton Town but not for the likes of Rooney or Ronaldo.
5. I think there should be a way to do diving headers and over head kicks rather than it just randomly happen.
6. When you change it to all out attacking the players should make alot more runs than they do on Fifa 10.
7. It would be good to have actual ground features such as at Old Trafford the players come out in the corner not the middle of the pitch like on Fifa 10. At Wembley when you win a trophy goin up the steps and seeing the players line up and lift the trophy rather than a few players stand in the middle of the pitch lifting thin air.
8. In manager mode when bidding for players you should be able to put players in the deal aswell. I'd like to see seprate bidding and contract talks with a few set statements to give the player to talk them into coming to your club for example, I see you as the main man in my team, you'll be a first team regular, i see you as a big part of the rebuilding of this team, the first year will be as a sub to get the experiance then you will be in the starting 11.
9. Make it possible to cancel players contracts if they are no longer needed rather than keep wasting your very small wage budget.
10. When you have won a trophy rather than a paper statement thats the same all the time you should do a small interview asking things like what else can the team achieve, who was the star man during this cup or season, what are your hopes for this compertition next season, theres been speculation about your future will you still be here.
Ok I have a list for you guys, it is all about the actual gameplay.

1. More randomness (the ball is bouncing in any directions etc)
2. I know your deal with FIFA about dicing/handball, BUT, it is a game, please wake up and include those features. Without diving, the game will never be 100% realistic.
3. Create a new shooting type, like pressing L2+R1 and players with power in their feet will be able to take a shot based on power.
4. How many times haven't you seen 2 players go up in a duel with only 1 on the opposite team? Include this, please.
5. Create various types of tackles, soft tackles, body tackles, normal sliding tacles, powerful but clean tackles and a dirty powerful tackle that sometimes can result in a straight red card.
6. Did you see van Bronchorst in World Cup against Uruguay? Make sure shots of this caliber is able to score.
7. The top teams should have every single players' real face.
8. Sorry, but the commentary is terrible. In fact, it is so bad that I have muted Fifa the last couple of years. Please get new guys to do the commentary.
9. The songs are disgusting, only s***ty music made by unknown s***ty artists. Include Akon, Timbaland, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Travis McCoy etc.next time please.

Yea, and the crowd looks like a cartoon btw. the cheering sounds so false and makes me sick, where did the English screaming celebrations go? Refresh your crowd please, it looks like some bad painting job.
David Braithwaite
actually, the name of the feature I'm referring to is 'Broadcast Cuts' in 2010 FIFA world cup South Africa. Please keep them in FIFA 11. Not the manager 1s obviously, but just the Broadcast Cuts of players, just like they are in 2010 FIFA world cup. PLEEEEASE
Jonny Giovani Young :)
hey in the ps3 game could u please add the russian league and the northern irsh league . could u also try and make all the leagues a bit more competitive like the top teams finish up the top half of the table and have the odd suprise every year thanks
I sit and play Madden 10 and see that for every match you get to see the fans outside the stadium and you may also see the stadium. It would be a cool thing to have on Fifa11.

I want better atmosphere from the fans hear the songs more.. 5.1 sound :) and i want coaches also included in the game, it would be cool to see mourinho celebrating goals, or Sir Alex complain to the ref and the players reaction after missing shots, passes and even complain about each other

The classic XI is good but where is pele?? what about having maradona up front with gary linker ad george best out on the wing! I would love to reply and change the out come of some classic games like the 99 champions league final or the 66 world cup. Or even to play in classic teams like real madris galacticos! and be able to put together my ultimate team from across the ages.
I would love to play with old teams like Manchester United 99 treble team or when Cantona did it back in 94 in even George best, Dennis law and Bobby Charlton. I’m glad someone else thought of it an i hope in Fifa 11 you can buy this like a “add on” on xbox 360. Please EA listen to this!
Musayeb Moheb
Please can Fifa 11 make license with Uefa Champions League it would be wonderfull. Please make it....FIFA is the best game in the world all time.
1. Handballs should be called.
2. Crowd reactions and realism should be applied, make them look like they are into the match.
3. Teams playing on a final match should be different than regular matches, celebrate differently since they just been crowned champions!.
4.Players reaction to refs unfair call should be seen; like other team mates holding him back , because it looks like hes about to hit the other player or ref.
5.Commentaries should say way more variety of stuff, not the same thing over and over.
6.More detail customizing to the virtual pro.
7. If you have an existing virtual pro, be able to transfer your accomplishments to the fifa 11.
8. Other tournaments in manager mode: Champions league, Santander, etc
9. The frustration or happiness of coaches like in the WC game, but better.
10. Different Celebrations!!!...tired of the same celebrations when you score a goal. Benn using the same ones since 08.
please please have all real ground stadiums for english premier especially my favourite molineux wolves all the way why always have the big team grounds lets have some smaller
team grounds and lets managers visible on the touchline.

any chance of adding the blue square premier so you could sighn the hidden talent of the non league for the league two sides eg kidderminster thank you
up the wolves
I found empty stadiums disappointing. I'm sure you are aware of this, and there must be a reason why it was left that way, as it seems like a fundamental inclusion for a football game. Is there any way you could address this situation, if you are unable to fix it. Many FIFA fans other than myself would love to understand why this is.


(obviously this isn't a huge issue, but it is just a visual thing)
1. Make the free roam area available for more than one person such as when playing with your friends online so all of you can shoot on the same goalie

2. Make the manager mode and Be a Pro game types with a calendar to see the timing of your games so you know when to rest your team

3, Make it more difficult to go to a good team at the beginning of your season in Manager Mode and Be a Pro instead of creating a guy and going straight to Barcelona

4. Be able to check to the ball easier rather than waiting for it.

5. Be able to move after you pass the ball instead of stopping like in Fifa 10

6. Be more creative in Manager Mode and Be a Pro. Example- Hold practices with drills to improve your pros reputation

7. Have the choice to play indoors such as in the off season to play indoor soccer

8. For Manager Mode, you should have to start at a bad team such as in the MLS, and progress up to a team like Barcelona

9. Once you reach a 5 star in Manager Mode, you should be given the opportunity to coach your nation

10. It should be more like Ncaa football where you begin your created player in your High School playoffs or College playoffs and get drafted

11. They should be creative in practice mode such as being able to move the goals up and play 4v4 or 1v1 to mini goals, and have shooting drills where someone passes it to you, and have possession drills
Please for pc, can you get commentary like on the ps3, where its much more detailed and realistic! Also, can you update graphics on goal nets?
I pretty much totally agree with john cooke #12559.
1: kits getting muddy when it rains or snows.
2: clash of heads
3: more vicious tackles(like 2 footed tackles high feet for dangerous play
4: players getting stretchered off
5: handball whether deliberate or not
6: players reacting to a tough tackle/ ref decisions showing fustration

the only other things i would want to see is some automatic skill moves for the more skilled players, like what was done in world cup 2006 with the automatic spins, etc. Forget about what some people are asking, like adding 5th division teams that nobody cares about. Work on gameplay, like more control on first touches and harder defence, sometimes the through balls get through too easily. I love the franchise and it can only get better, it's the small things that make it better, like crowd and player reactions, heel passes, etc.
Please make sure all leagues have the proper amount of subs allowed,cuz on fifa 10 the likes of the championship and league 1,2 (england) the teams in these leagues only had 5 were as the regulated amount is 7 and also more famous stadiums like elland road,st james park,ibrox,celtic park etc should be included in the game
we want saudi League in fifa 11

and we want the goal keeper more smarter

^___^
in the manger mode you should sign a contract whatever yaers you want stay at club, and other clubs try sign you at any time in season, manage a contry in manger mode call up players to play for their country, interview with sky sport news after your big win, and different commetors as well
Make a be a pro goalie option, and make the jerseys for the keepers as the real ones in real life
pro should be like manager 15 seasons and able to buy and sell players and more with regards to buying players with options somehow to push players after bad tackle with possible result red card
still awesome though
Hi,

I must thank you for a terrific FIFA 10 game I play it all the time. I have just a few request for the new game.

1. I would like for it to be made possible for someone to be a goalkeeper in Virtual pro or in be a pro.
2. International tournaments on be a pro.
3. And also i would like for you to be able to live the life of a pro on be a pro. You know like interviews, transfer demands, things of that nature.

Thanks for the consideration,
Kade Hamblin
PS3 gamer tag: Jackets12. just tell me you saw me from this site
to be honest and i hope that some people agree having the same commentators can get a bit boring and also that maybe after some really bad tackles a fight could break out and like on nintendo ds you should be able to save your progress so you cant save during a match and come back later where you left off.
In the arena you should be able to do 1 man mode or 2 man mode (for those who don't know what this is ...its a game where there is only one net and there are 2-8 people all against each other....if you score you go through to the next round , this carries on until there are only 2 people left where it is first to 5) (2 man is the same concept but with 2 people on the same team)

Thanks
ryan mckenzie
please add incorrect decisions ie. offside when not or vive versa or stonewall penaltys not given etc this would add alot more realism to the game
1. More control over the goalkeeper.
- Wont run out unless you make him!
- Maybe even have option to switch into him
2. Defenders can clear the ball on first touch without chesting it
3. Its too easy to hit a controlled shot from outside of the box
4. Its waaaaaay too easy to chip the keeper
5. Include fun drills that you can play to improve your character
- like in pro evo 9: speed runs, cone drills, ect.
no more fa cup games on same day or near the same day as a leauge match
make an away kit every season on manager mode and make a home kit every 2 seasons. also, improve players faces as: crouch looks like an elf, neuer is similar to somebody you would see on a WANTED poster and damien duff has a flat head and luminous yellow hair. FIFA ROCKS!
more of thr lower international team like one of them to be "El Salvador"
you shud av clyd tyldsley as commentator he the best expecially in the championsleague hes fantastic it wud be a wicked game if he wo the commentator
I would like the Be A Pro Seasons to be developed further with the following things: -
1.Can be subbed on or off on the discretion off the manager AI.
2. Club competitions such as champions league and media reaction when you fail or succeed.
3. Transfer offers for your pro during both transfer windows with contract offers.
4. Realistic injuries missing few months and so on.
5. Press confrences or other of the pitch events.


I think all of those things would make the mode much mroe enjoyable and less tedious 3 seasons in for example. Every play I have talked to about it would really love a realistic pro seasons so they can feel as though they are living their football dream

Iv played fifa games all my life and i know if you change what i say fifa11 will be far better than ever and it will hav a better prestige of gameplay than your rivals footy games.

You should upgrade the transfers in manager mode eg. player for player swaps, player+player for player swaps, player+cash for player deals, cash deals, season long loans, 1/2 season loans, free agents.

You should also make it able for the manager can value his own players to fend off other clubs or get a better price for players.

You should also add more clubs and leagues such as,
The irish carling premiership
The japan j-league
The Russian league

You should also make it that in manager mode durring pre-season, have a host of pre-season tournametns were you can win silverwear and money or deside to play friendlys where you pick who you play
add more league or at least top teams from leagues like argentina, chile, uruguay, greek, add nacional, penarol, from uruguay, and have more players for ultimate team
hi could be a pro mode be better for example to see wats going on in the dressing room at half time it would b pretty cool to c wat the manager wants u to do and could u have 2 types of manager mode like for example u can b sir alex fergason or any of the other managers and b able to c the managers and even the fans thanx PS FIFA 10 waz class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it would be great if you can search a player by his nationality
I think you should be able to take quick throw ins, so if the ball rebounds off the advert boards on the side of the pitch the closest player picks it up immediately and throws it in.
thanks.
Enable any formation. I would love to play a 1-2-7 or a 8-1-1. Bring in TotalFootball for the CPU - I feel constricted to my players positions.

BRING IN THE NASL SOCCER TEAMS!!!!!!!! As well as small leagues such as the one in Chile.
More injuries to make subs and reserves worthwhile. Transfer budget so you actually have to make good transfers instead of getting all the best players and owning. Let's make managing you team realistic.
1: i`d like to see kits getting muddy when it rains or snows.
2: clash of heads
3: more vicious tackles(like 2 footed tackles high feet for dangerous play
4: diving
5: players getting stretchered off
6: pro season actually living the pro s lifestyle
7: handball whether deliberate or not
8: introduce the backpass rule
9: controversial goals
10: players reacting to a tough tackle/ ref decisions showing fustration
i think u should hav a multi player management mode on the next fifa
Team Celebrations. ie) Slide and have guys jump on you or run up to supporter section.
