    i reckon fifa should put the conference league in because if u add up the attendences of one weekend of conference football there is about 15 thousand and those fans arnt gettin there club on fifa and i think that the players should be able to do trick hile sprinting

    fifa 08 cnt wait till it comes out today
    one thing that is really bugging me is that why is rooney and ronaldinho on the front cover???
    from my point of view, it shoul have been the best player last year, which was Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos

    i mean these two are proabaly the best two athletes in football at the moment
    theres nothing wrong with rooney and ronaldinho , but the problem is that they have already been on it for two years, and both of them didnt even do anything last year

    am well pissed off!!!

  5. BMan says:

    Also player do warm up before the game though but not during substitution…And it’s aslo got a new level called Legendary level.

  6. BMan says:

    Well….I must admint! FIFA08 is THE BOMB!!!!! on PS3 though!! Super graphics,commentator is a different one this time but still with Andy Gray.
    One thing thou is the controls! Eish, They didn’t include digital control selection where you’ll use the D-Pad to control a player,BUT other than that It’s super!!!!!!!!! I got my self one already two days ago but haven’t even started with manager mode so can’t really say much.Still getting used to the analog stick.

  7. colo colo says:

    why ya never put colo colo is wanna da best team in south america is top 5 on the international teams ya need to put them next time for real cause from wat i knoe colo colo is knoe by alot of people that are from south america

  8. fromfifa96tillnow says:

    Man, what do you think about?????
    Ukrainian league is one of the strongest and richest leagues in the Europe. Shakhtar(Donetsk) and Dynamo(Kyiv) is well-known superclubs and also teams like Dnipro(Dniepropetrovsk) and Metallist(Kharkiv) is playing in UEFA Cup and they have a good ratings. Please, add Ukrainian league. I`m sure it strongest than Polish or Danish league.

  9. Findo says:

    GET THE SCOTTISH DIVISION 1 IN AFTER ALL IT IS ONE OF THE MOST COMPETITIVE LEAGUES

  10. Gomer says:

    i think it would be good if you could choose which of your players go up for corners. i always play with tottenham and while dawson and king or kaboul ect are sat at the back aaron lennon and y. p. lee are in the box trying to win headers against rio or terry, its silly.
    cheers blad

    make it so u r able 2 wank dogs

  12. Sir T Again says:

    manager mode: i think that each team should have there own manager, preferably realistic, you(the player) can only play for clubs without a manager so if you are plaing for leeds utd and you look to see what clubs havnt got a manger you can then choose to swap teams at any point in the season so if you get fired in december, you should be able to choose a new team, with no manager and start from that same month instead of simulating to the end of the season. Also i think it would be fun to see the likes of alex furgerson, or arsene wenger leaving there club and manaing a differnt team on that note, i think things like this should affect teams performaces/moral such as alex furgerson leaving utd to manage coventry, then i think coventry should improve for having a better manager so give each manager a manger rating similar to a player rating an you (the player) starts off on 60 and has to work is way up to the likes of jose morinho who could be on 90. so if you have a team with a manger with an high rating there overall performace should improve. i think this would had a little bit more depth to manager mode.

  13. danny draycott says:

    i think fifa 08 should have the uefa champions league in its season mode

  14. karl says:

    hi the last couple of fifa game have been a major let down and im hoping that this year the game play will be smoother and i agree with brian the american league is rubbish lol and the goaleys are to slow to react and fabrigas is the best player in the world

  15. Nagy says:

    Please include “Al Ahly” from Egypt-Africa since it won the third place in world cup for clubs
    Thanks

  16. Brian says:

    Add more descent leagues with there good teams instead of adding the american league simply because of becham and who cares about the mexican league add the russian league they have descent teams like cska moscow , spartak moscow and zenit st petersburg these are good teams who feature reguarly in europe also add the ukranian league with shaktar donesk and dnipro thest teams feature in europe often as well and for god sake please add CELTIC PARK and IBROX two of the best stadiums in World football and homes of two out of the 20 best teams in the world Celtic and Rangers. also add valencias and romas stadiums as well. PLEASE !

  17. mark says:

    players warm up before being on as a sub

  18. Ryan Gibson says:

    1)be able to have your chosen sponser on your kit
    2)bring the keeper up for corners
    3)players shud change there boots,hair styles and things like that

    have you ever fort about making a game where you play as only one player eg you can make one up or you can be a superstar and you go from age 16 to retirement playing in what ever position you want and what eva club you want and if you dont get a touch of the ball for 5 mins then you just have to wait or run over to the play and you can choose if your a greedy player or a dirty player or a dairing player where you wil shoot from 40 yards and if you play crap you get droped and the point of it wud be like a real match everybody is an individual and it wud be cool to be cristiano ronaldo runin up an down the wing for 90 mins skining everbody scoring a hatrick for hull city

  19. Donner says:

    I would like a 5 a-side tournament in a reduced sized pitch with walls surrounding it so there is no throw ins and a fe fans at the side of the pitch and a commentator like the one on the first FIFA Street.

    AND

    different free kicks like the one on fifa 2004 but harder

  20. liam says:

    new stadiums

  21. ali says:

    how about multiple commentators were used like in real life so for one game you might hav matrin tyler and andy gray asnd then for the next game hav clive tyldesley an deavid pleat.
    also music from your own media bar would be nice

  22. Diddi says:

    I would like them to put the icelandic league in too because the football is devoloping very quickly there or at least put 2 teams out of the icelandic league in to the rest of the world. I would also like them to put youth teams in for example Spain U21 or France U16 or Arsenal B team. And make the goalkeeper gloves look nice on the goalkeeprs for example let them wear uhlsport gloves or stanno gloves or adidas gloves and make the hairband on every player look nice. I would also like to see when you shoot the ball outside the box that you can curl the ball very beautefilly. I would also like o see some more goalkeeing bloopers it makes the game more fun because in FIFA 06 and FIFA 07 the goalkeepers never made mistaks. And make Managing mode more realistic like you can have a wife, or boys of your own that can play for the team. Allright that were all my suggestions i hope you lika them and please but the icelandic league or at least FH Valur an Fram.

  24. Paul MCAuley says:

    Celtic Park is one of the biggest stadiums in europe and holds 60000, also it it has arguble the most atmospheric conditions of any stade in europe.

    add celtic park

    Last 16 in the champions legue last season, Rangers the year before

    More attention must be made to The Auld firm!!!

    add celtic park and ibrox

  25. Random, says:

    I just brought fifa 08 for ps2 and its pritty much exactly the same for fifa 07 AND YET THERES STILL NO LINESMAN OR REFS. This was the year that i recon i shoulda brought pes

  26. Ollie Thorne says:

    i think you should have a goal of the season that would be brilliant. i dont see the problem with not having many stadiums. jst continue making gameplay better. keep up the good work.

  27. red says:

    slow motion to pull off trick moves…

  28. prith says:

    1- realistic transfers messi valuation is 55000 in 07 he pretty much moves to any club even at manger level 1
    2- when u loan a player to a club and he plays for 6 months his player growth points should also be increased and loaning the player for lesser periods like 3 months
    3- player frustrated at the bench for a long time and ask for transfer request for a club he prefers and not any lesser clubs
    4- players called by commentary by their names at least some epl and spanish teams
    5- managers should be mentioned by the commentary and more interaction with the press and rivalries between mangers like arsene and mourinho(oh he is not here anymore i am not a chelsea fan but i hate to see him go like this)
    6-better youth and reserve teams can be added
    7-manager of the reserve team and u can do well to get yourself to be the first team manager
    8- u get called up to be the coach of a international team or u 21 like stuart pearce
    9- more transfer time and salary depending on the players talent and not by their positions like forwards getting more salary than defenders at least certain defenders like terry and ferdinand should get high salaries
    10- referees is a must i hope they bring the referees and linesman in 08 itself
    11- penalty shootout mode
    12- preseason friendlies can be arranged by negotiating with other teams
    13- dives can be made and sometimes awarded or sometimes a yellow dependind upon the player in real life and the referee
    14- the sliding tackle should be corrected sometimes i get the ball clearly the referee just gives me a foul or a card sometimes i mistime it he just let the play go
    15- fight between match of high rivalry or other important cup matches depending upon the player traits or attributes
    16 -goal keeper comes up front for a corner
    17- choosing which players to go forward for the corner for the header and which player waits around the box and who stays behind to defend like in manu ferdinand ,christiano ,vidic, goes for the headers and rooney ,scholes to stay in the box

  29. oli says:

    they should include english non league teams

  30. Marc Ebel says:

    I need a career mode, which is playable for more than one player.
    There is no need for playing the opponents, but to play with 2 or 3 friends in the same team in the career mode.
    Because Fifa 06 and 07 didn’t have such a feature, we are still playing Sonys “This is football 2005”.
    And, if it would be possible, could the transfer and loan system work with “real” money
    and not with “points”.

  31. sclake says:

    I think that you should put in the Argentina league, Russia league, Ukranian league, (chilie) Colo Colo,Greek league,New Zealand National team,Cuba,Israel League,The youth teams in manager mode so people can bring up the youth in the manager mobe. the Czech league, The Cuban League, pre season games so you can bulid up your tean, the iraq national team, iran, hondorus, senagal, ivroy coast, monatnigo and the sebian league please will you do this

  32. mokhtar toutounsab says:

    Dear Fifaplay
    Iranian Love football and they use all Fifaplay products more than other countries they live with these games.
    please add Iranian League.
    thank you

  33. gerardo says:

    i would also like to be included argentina league AND instead of “Rest of the world ” include 6 sections instead : UEFA with the rest of teams of europe so with the rest of european leagues you could play champions league or a better UEFA cup
    CONMEBOL : with the best 20 teams of south america so with brazil and argentina and mexico leagues i could play Copa libertadores and Copa sudamericana
    CAF with the best teams of africa, AFC with the best teams of asia CONCACAF with the best teams of rest of central america and caribean and so and on . This could be good to the creators of FIFA 08 cause they could sell more at worldwide level cause everybody in the world would love to their favorite local club in the game ……………………………….PURO BARCA : )

  34. gerardo says:

    hi
    i would like to say that fifa 2007 was just great and the only things fifa 2008 needs is just a bit of better graphics (always) to send away some 1 or 2 national teams like n. ireland wales or finland. to PLEASE add NETHERLANDS and some other national teams like japan iran , south africa , ghana, colombia, costa rica, and othre teams out of europe caue football is for all not just for europe.
    I would like that i could manage a national team and play “road to South Africa 2010 ” or something like that or Eurocup ,Copa America

  35. george mota says:

    they should have guatemalan league in fifa 08 and also should have staduims name after after centeral america

  36. george mota says:

    hopefully have countrys like guatemala or panama or any other spanish countrys and teams like hatti or trinadad and tobago

  37. The_Brazilian says:

    I just wanted to see some south american stadiums in there. Such as the Maracana stadium in Rio (thats a have to have!), maybe the Bombonera and such. I just think that atleast the maracana should be in there!
    Also I wanted to see more improvements for Manager Mode. Improvements like:
    – Having clubs call you to play for that not just choose which ever club you please!
    – Getting to play for ANY national team at the top of your career.
    – Real sponsors. Big sponsors if your on the top of carrer and winning champonships and not so known sponsor if your just starting at a smaller club.
    – For sponsors, have them in jerseys. If you cant put them in the body part of the jersey, have them on the sleaves of the jersey.
    – (This one not my idea but I just wanted it to be heard)… Having the main manager mode page be like the clubs website. With club infos, league infos, match hype and rivalries, team news, and more!
    – Making the clubs continental championships liscenced and using it on the Manger Mode! Champions League or UEFA Cup on Europe, Copa LIbertadores and Sulamericana on South America and Mexican clubs invited, CONCACAF Champions Cup for NA, and so on! It would be a great addition to the Manger Mode in the game!

    Oh and please, Have the ref crew (referee, both linesman, and fourth ref holding the added time or subs thing whenever making changes) on the field!

  38. Scott Reid says:

    in manager mode u should be able to manage the national team

  39. mahdi says:

    please add iranian leage and iranian national team in fifa 08

  40. Paddy says:

    Hi,
    can’t wait till friday!
    some suggestions for 09.

    Improve the shooting – the demo seems to think you are a lunatic when you shoot – you put the ball 50 yards over and 51 yards wide!
    Okay, I agree, it’s good that schooting is harder. But now it’s too hard. There’s a fine line, but you’ve actually made it more unrealistic.

    Another, let us choose the music from our hard drive which the teams come out to. Even better put some chants on the marketplace than we can download and choose which clubs’ fans will chant them.

    Put the ref and linesmen on the pitch! and the fourth official and managers – the technical box comes closer to the sideline than portrayed in the game.

    Import faces from the xbox live vision cam for create a player, or import images from our hard drive so we can make players that bit more realistic.

    Add a couple of commonplace things the crowd do – for example the ‘wheeeeyyyy’ when someone missed by miles, and cheers after the announcer reads out the name.

    Injuries are completely unrealistic – you are forced to make a sub because a player is lying on the floor clutching his broken leg or whatever, then when you sub him he just gets up and walks off!

    If even one of these ideas gets into the game then I have reached my objective 🙂
    Friday 28th here we come!

  41. him says:

    make psp graphics better and add more features on the PSP.

  42. eoin o'neill says:

    there shud be an irish league and ad more stadiums like celtic park and croke park because it is one of the biggest stadiums in euro
    pleazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz add croke to the game

  43. Tripwire says:

    How about making the graphics look like ps3 in stead of not even ps2 quality. Fifa08 for pc is just ugly!

  44. Anonymous says:

    I want to see all the premiership stadiums in the game

  45. sir_T says:

    ok this is proberly too late of 08 but a few things for 09:

    1. if playing in a tordament and it ends in a draw then it should go to a replay
    2. if a player is injured then he should go on to the sidelines either to wait to come back on or to be replaced by a sub
    3. on manager mode the players retire too early, on 06 most players were retiring when they were 30 – 35 years lod it needs to be more like 35-40, not sure what it was like on 07 but its annoying when you have a team full of made up charaters and for some reason mostly have high skilled levels
    4. better cut-scenes like see subs warming up, manager shouting from sidelines
    5. in manager mode have season and overall stats, so you could see how many goals a player has scored over 5 seasons, or how ever long he plays for your club it would be cool to see aplayer reach 100 goals etc and also to look back at how your club has developed

    **after reading a bit about be a pro mode i have come up with an idea for be a pro mode, which what i think wold be good: create yourself as a you could in prevous fifa games, you are giving a lower league side at random and play a 15/20 season career as your self. you start right at the bottom and work your way up. you start off by having training sessions with your club trying to earn a first team place, once you get called up to the squad you then have to try and keep, and keep improving maybe become the captain for your club. You should also throw in real life situations such as the better you do, the more press you get and bigger clubs start to notice you. If a club notices you then they could put in a transfer for you, with different tempting offers or not then its up to you if you would like to go play for them or not. Also you should be able to make descions based on player-manager relationships so if your unhappy, or lose your place to a new signing you can ask for a transfer request to leave the club. this should capture the ups and downs of a real footballers career. the ultimate goal is to play top level football on a path whichever you choose to take. once you are playing for a top flight club you could then try to earn yourself a place on the international team, with a chance of playing in a world cup etc.

    i think if you do something like this for 09 then it will show and are able to play both aspects of football from a mangers view(like the current manager mode) of from a footballers view

  46. Ciaran says:

    you should have chris kamara as one of the commentators, he would be unreal in it!!

  47. james says:

    well if u could just bring out all the leagues in the world or at least the FIFA ranking top 100 national leagues or something.

  48. meeko says:

    Do something about all the damn cheating in the online play! Long balls and cutting in on the side line are easy to defend. But there is nothing i can do when someone “loses connection”. Also, the top 15 players are all joined together and make it impossible for anyone to be the best because they are cheating.

  49. Artyom Makarov from Russia says:

    I want Uefa Champions LEAGUE in Cup in Fifa and stadion Lushniki(MOSKOW) (final)

  50. matt paez says:

    also make the people in the game better (graphics)
