you should be able to watch your team train
more AI intellegence
there should be training sessions in manager mode so they can gain expirience also there should be more soccer teams
You should have Fifa Manager 09 on PS3. Not alot of people can afford to upgrade their computer, but more people has got the new PS3. You would sell alot more copies and the graphics would be fab. I would be more than happy to pay £49.99 if was out on PS3.
i think a very good improve will b to add the real badges and all division for argetina league
Well not much need to change, but more could be added i played all the manager games and they much more. I would love to use more than one player when i'm playing. Teams may be interested in my work so why dont they offer me a contract. More international teams i cant even play with my player if he get called up for the international squad whats up with that we have alot of personal stuff why dont we get to use them. More realistic players should want to come to your club i love to buy south american players so y cant i get the really young ones just simple stuff sometimes the game gets boring but i love it but some more stuff to keep us playing play play play
the graphics should improve and before you buy any of the games make sure your ram is over 125mb and graphics card is over 64mb

Fifa 08 is good, please dont put in anymore personal life, dont let it get away from thefootball, i've got my own personal life and don't like the game sims lol!!
the main problem i have with FIFA 08 is if a game gets cancelled due to internationals or waterlogged pitch, should be able to choice when to play the game in hand. evertime i get a game match canceled i end up having to play 3 games in 3 days.. lets start seeing the leagues with teams having games in hand.
National Team Manager
Bring out FIFA Manager 09 on the PS3 - PS3 graphics and good game
Graphics on the PC are nothing compared to next gen FIFA that would worry me....it would lag behind
but big one.....FIFA Manager should link with FIFA 09...you should have it on the PS3 then if you play a game on FIFA the game saves then when you load up FIFA manager you have to react to the games you played on FIFA (whichever ones you choose) THAT WOULD ROCK
Two genres is nice but to link them would mean big money i think.....
Managing is cool but tbh gets a little tedious after a while.
CRAIG
First and most important, LISTEN TO OUR SUGESTIONS!
we play the game, and if we say we want something, it's because we consider it important !
so, please, try to listen to our sugestions as much as possible!

MUCH Better AI on the matches. the AI is just not good enough.
no way a team is able to keep pressure the entire 90 minutes like it happens with me every single game. don't matter if I play home or away....my team is always under pressure the entire game.
its good but.....

1 there should be even more real life player photos
2 one should be able to manage brazil as national team
3 and argentina and usa
4 more details in private life
5 own team but not manage
6 more detail in stadium editor
7 for away games like chamions league you should be abe to choose which airline takes you to the games
8 talk to the fa more if you are england manager, and suggest hosting world cup
9 they should sky sports news and bbc match of the day
its good but.....

Omar [the] Great!
theres not a lot wrong with the 2008 manager mode but, iv always wantd 2 be able 2 play a 'kick off' match with my manager mode team, especialy once iv made special signings. This is because me and others are always arguingf about whos mangaer mode team is the best, at least if we could play with them in 'Kick off' we'ed be able to "battle it out"!!!! Thanks for letting me make this point, iv always wantd 2, Omar.
be able to have a bookmakers page where you can put your hard earnt cash to win.Bet on games and scroes including your own to win some extra £$£$£
1) you should be able to put a bid in even if transfer status set to unavailable
2) you should be able to appeal for things.
3) you should be abler to watch highlights of your training sessions
4) items from your private life, should count for something.
5) you should have parents, and not start on £0
6) you should be able to take out personal loans.
7) official managers needed!!!!
8)when your the owner you should be able to hire and fire managers.
9) you should get sacked, if you take out like a massive money loan, and go way over budget, cus you can do all that on still not get sacked!!!!
10) you should get to make new kits, for the strat of every season, which should be easy to use, and have your teams sponsor on it.
11) More private events should happen. ie) more uncles birthdays and stuff
12) More sports should eb available in prvate life, such as darts pool etc etc
13) Should eb more detail, in making your guys face , and stuff
14) more interviews should be on it.
15) there should be relationships between players.
16) There should be a newspaper with articles and stuff.
when you are asked to sign a youth player, you should be able to see how good he is.
17) you should be able to see highlights of best players, in youth trials!!!!
18) Goalkeepers need to be smarter in matches
19) more desperate defending needed, ie last ditch tackles.
20) players need to develop styles, ie the way they run.
21) some players, need to dominate on the pitch against certain players, ie cristiano ronaldo will keep on skinning riise or something.



o and dunno why i had ronaldo skinning riise since i support lfc
1. squad numbers in lower leagues should be all the same and should be realistic.
2. should show graphics of manager on the sidelines

3 In manager mode you should be able to make upgrades to the stadium.
4 REAL SPONERS

15 always a guy outside the box for the volly after corners
16better in the A League
17 do everything on this list
Fifa Manager 08 is a nice game.It would be a great game if you could make some adjustments. I will enumerate some changes that i would like to see in the new Fifa Manager.
1.More playable countries, more countries with second ligues, an ingame posibility to create a reserve ligue or to enlist the reserve team in a lower ligue.
2 Direct control over the reserve team and under 18 youth team, in this i mean that you could play or manage these teams.The posibility of buing youth players from 12 years of age by negociating with the club and the players parents, you could promise the parents good education for their kid at your bording house if you have one or if your city is a cultural centre.
3.Cities should be diferent in description they should be clasified in: Industrial- in this cityes you should have and build industrial buildings, Cultural-in them you can build cultural buildings.Mountain towns, or seaside cities. Cities should be separated in small piceful or large busy the players with fanfavorite abilitis or media darling would like the large busy cities. There should be pictures and descriptions for all cities in europe and the world that have at least 150000 population so that this game would be more educative.The more details you have in the game outside footbal the less boring the game gets.
4.The national team should have more importance.Players that are internationals will be loved more in theyr home country.There should be more media coverage on them even if they are not plaing in the country.The national team matches should be the main event in the newspapers for at least 1 weak before and one after the game.
The media should be more agresive with the home national team players. in real life they are geting hamerd for every small flop but in the game the press just says "X counted his xx cap" its lame.Every player over lvl 80 should be counted as a star player for his team.
5.Player names.Every country should have 20-30 main names for players.For exemple in a country 20-30 names make a major procent of the population.Those name should be available for the commentators to use once the respective player will reach stardom.
Exemple: 200 english players are coled Smith 2 ore 3 of the are over lvl 80 so they are stars then the commentators shoul call their name.
..............................and more
just remember more people have performant computers and large capacity HDD's and these are the people that moastly buy the game.The more info outside footbal you give to the "manager" the more pleasure he will take from the game. The fifa manager 08 laks "human touch", You should have more specific interactions with the pres and players. Its beter from a player's point if wiew for a manager to say "What the hell was that performence?,Are you balerinas? Your nothing than a bunch of ... whatever'" than to have a spot where you can say :criticise, motivate, praise.
Can you have things like match of the day/ barclays league preview and have a half-time talk with analysis/highlights.
I think FIFA 08 - manager mode is awesome, but can still have improvements. Here are my suggestions/ 2 cents -

1) I think there should be an option to directly deal with a team. For eg - If I want to sell Christiano Ronaldo, I should be able to ask Real Madrid if they are interested, instead of just putting him for sale. Mostly, because, if a premiership player is for sale, -say Ronaldo, only the top English teams come in with offers - like Arsenal, Chelsea or Liverpool.

2) I wish the transfer rules were as per the "real transfer rules" - like players should be cup tied - which means if I buy Henry from Barcelona, to Man Utd, and both teams are in the champion's league, then Henry should not be an option for me for all CL games. It adds more reality to the game, and makes it more interesting. I'd also like to see more war of words between managers from diff teams, and more press involvement.

3) Also, I would like to see player and manager tapping "illegally" by other teams. Imagine if I get a message on my "laptop", that Madrid made an illegal attempt to lure C. Ronaldo from Man U. Stuff like that, I know is complicated to program, but it gives the real footie fan more substance to feel like a Manager.

4) The managers can have a war of words with Refs, and get carded or fined for dissent, and stuff like that. But, I feel the refs, stadiums, and spectators have to be revamped big time.

Good luck guys. I know the fans will always ask for more, and ask for the moon. It is never possible to impress everyone and keep all happy, but thanks for trying. FIFA 08 is an awesome game, and I'm sure 09 will be even better. Thanks for an awesome game, and keep the flag flying high.
Cheers.
welll i was reading some of the discussions about fifa 09 and i saw 1 guy saying that if its possible to include the puerto rican team...bro, YOU ARE CRAZZY AS HELL, they don't play soccer so grow up!

and fifa is a good game, but i hope the creators of the game, will include more tactical formations during the games like in winning eleven, and show the subsitutes in the banch

peace out.
J think maybe on fifa manager 09 to be macedonian league and fifa manager 09 to be working on worst computer.My computer:256 mb,15mbVG
is there any way puerto rico can qualify to play the world cup?
i know its impossible in real life, but it kinda sucks not being able to play international matches because my int. team eats it.
fix the fouls…it seems every time i slide i get carded but most of the tackles the cpu does which dont even touch the ball are called fair.
make controls more like recent fifas
make it for mac! :D
make it for mac, please!
and also even when i have players not for sale, if they are really good they get traded without me being able to do anything.
prestige…how much does one need to be able to aquire decent players on your team.
i have won 3 seasons in a row, countless cups and i cant get anyone from europe, where on the other hand boca juniors and river plate can get hernan crespo, and a few other european players like it aint no thang.
what about customizing badges?
i cant wait for ‘09! just pretty please make it for mac too!
i agree can we get it for mac?
i love this game!
cant wait to see the fixes!

• Give the players ability to cut back for a ball pass to them so they don't keep running straight.
• In owner mode, ability to get teams offering to buy out your contract and ship you to new team, better variety. Working your way up from the bottom.
• Make your own player - draft into the league
• Make your own stadium
• Better commentary tracks - repetitive right now
• Weather during the games
• Before the game starts, highlight a player's performance from previous game.
• Better replays at half
• Commentary at half on what each team can do to improve
• Visual tears in the grass from sliding - condition of the field changing during game.
More Commentary
INjurys more Realistic
Transfers much more realistic
Able to do practices and drills in the practices such as juggling, shooting, scrimmages
International Manager
Champions Leauge
World Cup
Design Stadium
Suggestions:
1) IMPROVE THE GAME OF GRAPHS
2) GET MORE THAN ONE COUNTRY HOUSE
3) REAL NAMES OF PUTTING THE CHAIRMEN AND COACHES
4) IF POSSIBLE LINKS OF PUTTING ALL THE SOUTH AMERICA (VENEZUELA) FIRST DIVISION SECOND DIVISION (THIS SECOND DIVISION TO SEE IF POSSIBLE)
5) TO BE SEE THE SECTION OF ENTRANAMIENTO (ALL) OF EVERY DAY IS NOT ONE WANTS TO SEE THAT IT IS QUICK SIMULATION
6) IF A PLAYER IS LESIONA AS RONALDO MAKES ONE DAY TO DECIDE IF IT WILL OPERATE THE PLAYER OQ DECIDES TO CONTINUE PLAYING FOOTBALL OR NOT
7) GET THE MARKS OFFICIAL AS NIKE ADDIDAS SONY ETC
8) THE MARKS OF BALLS
9) PUTTING THE COPA AMERICA MADE IN VENEZUELA RESPECTIVO WITH BALL AND ITS STADIUN 9 THAT WERE IN THE CUP
10) PUTTING THE SELECTION OF VENEZUELA AS ELECTION TO DIRECT
11) PUTTING THE LINKS ARE AS EXAMPLE ETC MEXICO VENEZUELA IS PLAY 2 LINKS FOR THE YEAR THAT ARE OPENING AND CLOSING SEE WHAT SHOULD PUT
12) IMPROVEMENTS THE GRAPHS AS THE STAGES OF THE SONGS AFICION
13) THE IMPROVEMENT THAT ALBITRO CANTE HOW ARE THE MISTAKES

HAVE IN COMMON THESE SUGGESTIONS FOR FIFA MANAGER 09
It would be cool to have interviews in the game.
The best FM was that one with Football Fusion...that was the BEST ever. If you want to leverage next FMs you need seriously think about that: fusion of FIFA and FM. This means that we could import a match from FM to FIFA, play it, and go back to FM. You will continue to sell FIFA, will sell more FM and this is the best Voice Of Customer (VOC) that you can do in the market right now. Make a poll and you will confirm that...Success!!!
I think there should be new spanish people talking because the guy on fifa 06,07,and08 are geting
BORNING PLEASE change the person
Have the game in psp also. It will be more fun than football manager & championship manager.
shows players on tv like sky sports news results
PLZ LISTEN......i think there should b real manager names and most importantly u should be able to aply 4 national jobs and get Australia involved! and lesser countries!
better boots
u should be able to create your own player and edit players and teams.
The Graphics of the players need to follow the Pro Evolution Soccer Series on Playstation 2 improve on it.
Also there must be more faces and hairstyles to choose from , including alot of choices for type of boots, hairband, wristband, socks length etc.
Also there must be more animations for shots on goal, more frequent bicycle and sissors kicks, volleys, step over tricks, ball juggling .
Improve the loading times.
Include the ability for players to be groomed into superstars and earn publicity, endorsments, popularity aka David Beckham.
Should happend when a player suddenly scores a hatrick or saves the team from defeat etc..
Make the Training section more user friendly, setting sessions on weekly basis then allow comuter to follow your instructions until you change them.
Should include more options for the team in the calender, like a visit to spa or holiday tour to improve morale and recovery etc.
I think u shuld create ur stadium like if u dont like ur other stadium, u shuld build another 1, and choose da people 2 build it, like Liverpool r buildin der new stadium in stanley park. I like da idea of sum guy sayin bout avin a ground fa ur youth and/or reserve team. I also fink dat u shuld have mor youth players, and mor things 2 do and more details about ur family and life, like ur sons or daughters (if u put add womens football) becomin footie stars. Hope 09 is cumin soon!
heyy,
i think you guys should have instead of the game being in such a far camera be up close while playing. like the demo in Xbox or PS3
PLEASE EA LISTEN TO WHAT I AHVE TO SAY!!! I bought FIFA08 on the PC and when i fnished intalling it i was shocked at how terrible the graphics were, the poor unauthentic shoes,poor grass,weather,stadiums looked crap! I just wasted another 70 bucks on a soccer game that did not impress me. I had to download OTHER PEOPLES KITS and BALLS just to make the game look DECENT..like cmoeon? You people are the GAME MAKERS , you should make the game outstanding..but you dident..thats why im here to tell you how you can beat PES and win back your LOST FANS. Ok lets start with the BAD, theonly way we can make FIFA09 a way better soccer game is by seeing what mistakes we ahve done..right? OK! here we go:

1)More INTERNATIONAL teams!! ALL of the worlds teams if POSSIBLE.
2)Put in the ASIAN CUP,Russian leauge,Greek and Argentinian!
3)Make the AFRICAN CUP OF NATIONS in the game!
4)3d fans,not annoying continious screams so predictable!.Fans cheer and sing,flags
5)MUCH BETTER GRASS,Nice and colourful KITS and REAL SHOES
6)Better palyer faces.
7)Much more STADIUMS!! (being an aussie, i was horrified that i did not see TELSTRA DOME,SUNCORP STADIUM and the MCG!!) Please EA, Australia is a massive peice of land with only ONE SOCCER INTERNATIONL TEAM!! i bed u to put the stadiums i mentioned above! please!..
8)When there is a sub comming on, the camera should be on the guy with the board and the player getting all rady and wamed up. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE WHOLE SQAD ON THE BENCH ASWELL, AND WITH THE MANAGER WALKING AROUND YELLING AND GIVING INSTRUCTIONS! THAT WOULD BE AWSOME!.
9)Better commentry, by that i mean More comentators and more languages!
10)Have the WORLD CUP in fifa09, and if not possible to make it 2010 then make a fake world cup one atleast.
11)real weather effects, from sunny to dusk to night
12)FULL ANTYHEMS OF TEAMS, and people chant and sing.
13)Half time commentry and actual analysis! Like yo ucan see actual commentators talk and show statistics like POSSESSION,SHOTS ON TARGET etc.

THATS IT! im sure EA will read all this and ACT FAST! becouse im a huge fan of EA, im counting on you EA, counting on u to make the BEST FOOTBALL GAME EVER....:)
1-to leave as leagues
2-to leave with their actual format as in mexico should be 2 championships per year and leaves only 1
3-your children can be footballers
4-departing Copa America, the gold and can begin directing selections are not europe to play friendlies
5-to be able to build more homes for juveniles
6-sponsors who has best
7-competitions that have real names, presidents, coaches
8-2008 but you are better and trust in you to
When you create your team you should pick your player or have some money to buy them. I think you should have more club facilities or catergories and youth camps and I also think that you should pick the company you wish to build your stadium, youth camps and club facilities. I haven't got Fifa 08 YET!!!!! so I could be wrong. And last, I think you should create ground/stadium for your reserve and youth team, instead of them using your stadium.
I haven't got fifa manaher 08 but i'm gonna get fifa manager 09 next year.
I think you should be able to pick your own team for the manager. the team u pick should be from leaugs should sum up your team. u should also have the real managers . when u control a club u become a manager.
when u sign a new player u shuld have the board meetings and the press and the ceremon where u give him the shirt and stuff.
