    Let me say first u EA guys are awsome and make the best football games out there…!! BUT if u dont put some usefull national teams that people would acctually play with like: Ivory Coast,Serbia,Egypt,Bosnia,Ghana!!! if u dont put this teams in u are IDIOTS!!u know noting about football!! WHY ARE THIS TEAMS BEING LEFT OUT TiME AND TIME AGAIN!!??? Serbia (10th best team in europe) Ivory Coast (probaly the best african team) Gahan ( one of the best african teams) Bosnia ( also very good at the moment) PUT this teams in the game and remove teams like New Zeland,China, Slovenia and some of the other STUPID teams u have!!! other then that u are great, but this is a MAJOR flaw in ur design of fifa… cheers 😀

  5. Rolex says:

    I’m sorry to say it but the attributes in Fifa 09 was unrealistic….first of all, it’s not cause someone is playing in the da 3rd division he should be slow as a snail….and how can a slow player catch you so easy on the run? I this need to be fixed…Also player Traits ( speed dribbler, juggler, power header, etc…) should be brought back…because it determines a player style. think about it…

    Hi, i’m from Portugal and i’m a loyal fan of Fifa series. I buy fifa since 99, i always believe that Fifa would become ” the king” of football games!
    well, i’m writing to you, to ask if its possible to put portuguese stadiums in ps3 and xbox 360 versions. i would like to see Benfica stadium( 65000),Fc Porto stadium( 50000) and sporting stadium(45000).
    i know that portugal isnt a important football market, but i think that these stadiums are 5* stadiums.
    And if you couldnt answer that, just tell me if it going to be any stadiums update…

    Thanks

    Dear EA. Fifa 09 was a great game however the new improvements for fifa 10 sound very interesting… Just add the Greek league…Argentina and Russian if you can as well… and even out the UBBER team advantage, Man u and Barca had an obvious edge in online matches, Let the user determin the win not subcoded boosting! Thats all

  17. chris says:

    Since the last xbox live update when i go to play fifa 2009 online it says that i need to be signed into xbox live and ea servers in order to select that feature. I noticed that theres an option which wasn’t there previously saying sign into ea. So i try to sign into ea and a ticker appears for about 20 seconds then that same message appears telling me that in order to sign into ea i need to sign into ea?!?. Help please cos its driving me mad.

  18. Macker says:

    1). easier direct free kicks, such as a target box appearing.

    2). include glasgow celtic and glasgow rangers FC stadiums. i have been asking for these to be included for many years… i wont be holding my breath this year.

    3). is there some reason that real madrids stadium was not included last year? can it be included in fifa10.

    4). introduce handball offence but not on a very significant level. there shouldnt be several penos in a match everytime the ball is kicked into the box.

    5). introduce manager figures on sidelines along with players warming up.

    6). Better crowd reaction. when goals are scored especially , also booing certain players. also people in crowds appearing to walk on the aisles of the stands or perhaps the stadiums emptying out earlier than normal in circumstances where the game is well and truly over before time.

    7). is there any possibility of having the option of playing the champions league. i remember for the last few years up to 2006 or 07 there was a seperate EA Champions League game on the market. why is that stopped ? is there any signs of re-introducing it.

    looking forward to fifa 10,
    tanks

  19. Jay Riggerz says:

    Hi, will the new fifa 10 have more detail, such as interviews with players ect. Also will it have every league in the world

    Many thanks

  20. Omar Williams says:

    Is it possible that on fifa 10 manager mode, we could get promoted and relegated?
    It’s one of those this I would put in the game to make it it just like real football. If your perfomance as a manager and the team was in the bottom 3/4 then you get relegated or visa versa if you were in the championship fighting for a place in the premier league.

  21. HareTY says:

    It would be soo fun with a game like NHL,NBA,FIFA but its like a floorball game its like NHL but its floorball. Please it would be soo fun!!!!!

  23. Jake says:

    African champions .. like African Nation champ
    improve skills for players and fent motion

  25. Alexandros says:

    Shall we see new leagues at fifa 2010 and if…
    Which will be they?
    There are a lot of leagues that exist till now,i think, at all fifa’s version (almost),which they shouldn’t exist… and a lot of other that should be exist in every version like Romanian ,Bulgarian ,Greek A’and B’ ,Russian ,B’ and C’ of Italy ,League of Poland ,Hungary and many many others BUT NOT leagues like Swiss, Austrian ,leagues of Northern Countries (Baltic countries) e.t.c
    Its ridiculous…i m sorry but they are!

  26. Anoymous says:

    Ok I know that you EA dont have time for this comment, but this is quite important for me because I want Fifa to be the best football(soccer) game so far. However I want to tell you what I feel will make Fifa a better game.
    (1) Imagine playing Fifa and not only using exp points to make yourself a better player, but using them to buy for e.g. better shoes.I know it seems pretty weird but think that you can make yourself a real unique superstar. Like C.Ronaldo have your own unique free kick and ext.
    (2) Very important, Titles like Golden Ball, Best Player of the year. I mean you should have some appreciation after your hard work during the season.
    (3) CHAMPIONS LEAGUE! Lads! how could you forget about that I feel like I shouldn’t remind you about it because I feel like it’s quite obvious that you have to put to put in the game. Oh yeah, and every time you play a very important match like (let’s say League final) you will get way more exp points than in a normal match. what about this if it’s the most important match in your life like World Cup final you’ll earn about 10,000 exp points if you played well.
    (3) Training mode, I can’t imagine how would it work but I think cones and all the things the real footballers do would be just enough. I think it’s very important.
    (4) I respect people who said alot about weather conditions but, I personally think it’s not the most important thing in the game,but you should add little more weather changes in the game.
    (5) I love to make make my own club in the game and I think i’m not the only one, but I think you should also add logos and real sponsors like for e.g. NIKE in the game.
    (6) Add your own face in the game, and please make it simple so even a mobile phone picture would do. Improve physics show the players growing when you edit them, add way more shoes and accesories.More hairstyles, commentator names make them say something like for e.g. let’s say the guy’s name Adu make the say something like(the unmistakable Adu) something like this anyway. And this is supersuper important for me if you are a good player(like over the 80 ovr) in the Be A Pro mode make the picture of their face replace the shadowy picture of a soccer player.And in the Be A Pro mode everytime you get better update straight away to the original game.
    Thank you.

  32. gentilor 21 says:

    Does the greek super league will be included in FIFA 10?????please answer me and please include the greek league in the game!!!!!!!!!!
    with RESPECT…!!!

  33. abraham says:

    Does Manchester United have an unfair advantage in the game? I find that even though I’m playing an inferior oponent, when they choose Manu it’s harder to beat them. This is too consistent to be coincidence. My players react so different against Manu. They make alot of mistakes and it’s more difficult to score on them. When I select Manu against someone playing with Manu, the games usually go – 1 for me, 1 for my oponent, 1 for me, 1 for my oponent……and so on. But this is only when I’m playing someone of similar skill. Again it’s too consistent to be coincidence. Thanks

  34. JJP says:

    Dear EA,
    I think now you should put out trailers of fifa 10. I might be being greedy but I cant wait!

  35. hosein says:

    we need the next version of fifa manager
    when would you writen about it?

  36. alex says:

    The fifa brand is still by far the best footballing game!! However there are many improvements to the game, that will make it untouchable.

    One main factor of sporting games in general, is their longevity. When playing fifa during manager mode, it becomes rather repetitive after the first few seasons of playing. It simply just gets boring, as there isn’t much control over the players development e.g. training, actual contracts etc. you are pretty much just playing matches. With the inclusion of mini games into club training, would add more realism to the manager mode. For example dribbling around cones to improve players dribbling, shooting at targets in the goal, to improve shooting etc, or weight training (similar to that of the Beijing 2008 game).

    As well as this, players within the team, should be listed in an area of the game, with a list of all of their achievements and medals, not just the manager history. Sort of like a hall of fame e.g. world player of the year, european player of the year, premiership winners medals etc. These factors will make the game much more enjoyable, as it adds to the realism of the actual proffesional game.

  37. danny hudson says:

    really loved 09 but obviously things can always change. my main idea is that you. should be able to practice more in free roam area. like take free kicks and brig in a fake wall or practice corners or practice being able to skill past defenders or such

  38. gjhgiuu says:

    Please add the russian leauge and the argentina leauge and rumanian leauge and afrcan leuges. pease make it the best game ever.fix the graphics add champions leauge and uefa cup.add more national teams .add more stadiums.more tricks and better comentary qith different people please add ukranian leauge with dynmo kiev.better manager mode. more south american leauges plus Mexican 2 division

  39. gjhgiuu says:

  40. JJP says:

    Dear EA, I hope you take this message into acount but I can see (that because there are so many letters) it’s understandable if you cant.
    1) I think you should make it that if a player’s injured people take him of on a strecher, not the player just limping of.
    1/2) If he’s really injured then make a vehicle drive onto the pitch and take him of.
    2) Make the weather optional on game settings before a match (raining,snowing/winter,average or sunny)
    3) Make it so you can choose the ref. Make a large choice of refs and make them real ones.

    Thank you for taking your time to read this message-if you have-I love EA and the FIFA games.
    Cheers, Maka West Jnr.

  41. Jack says:

    I think that fifa 10 shouuld include the free roam arena for all platforms, not just Ps3 and xbox. Also i belive that in manager mode you should be able to do training, e.g your the manager and you decide what you want to do in the trainin then be able to watch them train or maybe even be the player training himself.
    plus in manager mode make the teams budgets more realistic, e.g west brom would not buy ronaldo for £70m! where did west brom get £70m from?

  42. josh says:

    please please can you put every teams stadium and mostly can you change the goalpost according to the stadium e.g brightons goals have 3 posts and blue stripes and chelsea has 2 posts and white netting and please no more UK DIV.1 STYLE stadiums they are terrible so only real stadiums from every team and the appropriote net. thanks

  43. AJ says:

    make your own team and play with it in manager mode

  44. Chris says:

    Thanx FIFA

  46. Joe says:

    in manager mode have it so other clubs offer you the job as the manager and you can decide

  47. Vaughn says:

    dear EA please could you do this stuff to fifa 10 to make it the best football/soccer game around

    1) The Injuries should be more realistic so if a player is badly injured they should be carried off by medics asap even if your team is down a man for a few minutes.

    2) World Club Cup

    3) A chance to be asked to be International manager such as England, Netherlands, American samoa etc… I know there is games out there where you are international manager but it would be great to be manager of manchester united then be recognised by as a great manager and want my services as England coach

    4) add some more lower leagues such as Blue Sq Premier so we can play as our local teams such as stevenage borough etc…

    5) Handball the amount of times its happened and game has continued!!!!!!

    6) Refs & Linesmen making mistakes like they do in real life!!!!

    7) You should be allowed to change sponsor & kit colour in manager mode so if Microsoft wanted to sponsor Arsenal you can change the sponsor on the kit to Microsoft. And also change kit colours like so many clubs do every bloody season!!!!!!!

    8) Weather changes so for instance the sun is not gonna be beaming down in the middle of december so have snow or rain or something!!!!!!

    9) have midweek games that are played at night like they are supposed to.

    10) When you sub someone you should be able to see them embrace with their fellow team mate and either show them being congratulated by their teammates & staff or be annoyed at being subbed and maybe storming down the tunnel so for instance if ronaldo is having the best game he has ever had has scored a hat trick and is running a one man show almost & you go subbing him he would not be the happiest person in the world.

    11) Testemonial matches! So like if your man utd and you have still got giggs/scholes in your team until he retires there should be a testimonial match for that player for their services.

    12) bring in the rule like they are doing for next season in the premiership where you must have at LEAST 6 homebred players in the starting lineup.

    13) Have players go on international duty and come back with injuries etc….

    14) To be able to change players kit numbers!!!!!! I know you used to be able to do this but on the 360 (dont know if its same for other platforms) you cant and it looks stupid when you have say ronaldinho has the shirt number 3 & your keeper having number 10 it just wouldnt work that way in real life. so maybe even when you buy a new player maybe he would say that he prefers the number 9 shirt and if its available you can give it to him or if someone else has it you could see what that current player thinks of giving up that number

    15) let your players talk to you so maybe a message would come up that says that wayne rooney isnt happy with you playing him at left back or cristiano ronaldo isnt happy at being left to rot in the reserves or lionel messi is glad you signed carlos tevez to play up front with him.

    16) Have players request to be transfered/loaned out. if you have Wayne Bridge sat on the bench or in the reserves for a year he is gonna want to play regular 1st team action. players do this in real life so why not on the game

    17) Have your reserve team coach report to you what players are playing well in the reserve matches

    18)The option to be able to DIVEI know that we ALL hate a player to dive but we know that some players get away with it and if we are 1-0 down wit 2mins plus any stoppage time left we are gonna try anything we can so why not try for a free kick/penalty the worst thing that could happen is that you get yellow carded and lose the match which if you didnt try you might have lost anyway. this idea would only work if the refs/linesmen made mistakes otherwise everytime you dive you’ll get caught out

    19) When a player retires you should be allowed to ask the player if he would like to stay on as your right hand man/coach for the reserves/coach for the position they played in

    20) When you renew players contracts when there is a player in their final season and it says they are retiring at the end of the season so cannot renew their contract their should be an option to try and change their mind to try and get them to carry on just one more year (maybe another year on top next season as well if your lucky)

    21) Once you get up to 10 on your stadium capacity thingy mebob (you know what I mean lol) you should be able to have the option to BUILD a NEW stadium I would love to be able to build a stadium & have a capacity that I’d like to see watch my great team, also that means you can get more money#

    22) put the ref/linesmen back ON the pitch during the match not just when someone is offside/fouled etc… that way accidental things like the ball hitting the ref when he stupidly gets in the way can happen and the course of a game can change so quickly just by this happening. just small details like THIS makes the game that ever so sweeter

    23) Keep working on the graphics they are good and fifa has come a LONG way BUT small details like above and the fans (which considering how far the graphics have come since fifa 96 this should have been alot better a while ago) should be improved the fans should be shown more so if a foul has been made the fans should be shown throwing abuse at the offending player & it should show the fans cheering as their team lifts that all important cup or cheering as their team score an all important goal that keeps them in the game

  48. Jacob says:

    Dear E.A
    Please add the blue square premier league and the conference league into the upcoming FIFA game. This allows people to play as there home town. Thank you for your time,Jacob Bentley.

  49. darren bayliss says:

    Dear fifa please in manager mode its good you got the fa cup champions league and the rest however it would be great if one of your players on your team say for example wayne rooney cesc fabregas you could select to play for your country but as a whole team during manager mode say like freindlys world cup qualifiers/world cups/uropean for example im man u ive got differnent nationalitys on my team but i can select that player say rooney but control england aswell and manu yhen you will definetly beat pro evolution as the best football game ever
