A few of mine:

1. The rating system is completely flawed, impossible to have your players receive average ratings sufficient to match up to what is calculated for AI players.

2. No way to view the average rating of your players for the season.

3. Next season starts straight after the completion of the final match, no chance to look at your stats or growth or other things.

4. XP system is now far too generous, with coaches on level 4 players can go from low 60s to high 80s in only 2 seasons.

5. Team of the season is broken in two ways, first it includes players from the teams that are relegated or promoted into that division, second it includes players who've only played a few matches of the season (should be minimum 25-30 matches played or something).

6. Post match individual player statistics can no longer be viewed for every player, only for the man of the match, not a flaw per se but it was possible to see this in Fifa08 so why remove it?

7. AI teams perform no squad rotation and as a result play the same team constantly, even if at 90% fatigued (yet they can still run around the pitch for 90 mins as if at full fitness).

8. During a match you only see the formation of the opponent change in the man marking and other menu views when they make a substantive formation change usually at the end of the match, if they have a defender sent off, so bring off a forward to replace with a defender, that defender is shown as playing up front in all screens including man marking screen.

9. When you change from playing a 5 sub match to a 7 sub match and back it messes up your substitutes, for example in the Premiership/League Cup/European cups you can have 7 substitutes, as soon as you've played an FA Cup match your substitutes are messed up.

10. Each time you view team management it reverses the subs/reserves, so if you have them sorted in GK/DF/MF/FW order they will reverse to FW/MF/DF/GK order and back and forth, not a big deal but it's silly and a glitch.

11. Norwegian teams cannot qualify or compete in European competitions (apparently, not actually tried myself but it's been reported to me?).
