FA Cup Replays would be nice - something which Fifa 08 and Fifa 09 should have had.

Upload club songs - Many clubs have a song which is played after a Goal is scored in Home matches. Include a feature to upload the song for your club. EA could even make some of the songs available for download for a small fee.

Weather in Manager Mode - a must. which is actually visable in Tele cam.

Night matches - In Fifa 09, the grass looks to dull, especially in the corner area's of the pitch. here's a photo of a real life Night match at Old Trafford.

Different size pitch dimensions. Its rather odd that Town Park is the same size as Barcalona.

Save Goal Replays to HDD - a must.

In-game Scoreboard - Make the Scoreboard which says HOME VISITOR in some Stadiums, show the current score in the actual game instead of being blank.

In-game Goal updates - If your playing a relegation decider it adds so much more to the tension if you know what is currently happening if other important games which could decide your fate.

Responsiveness - Professional players are able to turn quickly, when turning in Fifa 09, players move to slow compared to real life.

Skill moves - The CPU teams should use skill moves especially on high difficulty levels such as World Class and Legendary.

Improved AI Free Kicks - The CPU teams on Fifa 09 are often dangerous from corners but they are very tame at free kicks even on World Class. make them much more of a threat. try to get a balance between Fifa 08 and Fifa 09.

Improved AI tactical awareness - CPU teams should make tactical substitutions based on how the game has developed rather than just making them at random. Also they should change their starting XI occasionally instead of using the same team each time.

Improved Ref AI - Make the Ref position himself on the pitch better so he doesnt get in the way of the ball as often. Also the ref should be less 'card happy' so players don't get booked or sent off for no apparent reason.

Crowd Audio - If your the away team and you injure one of the oppositions players and he's taken off, the crowd should boo when the player who commited the foul is on the ball.

Crowd Animations - More realistic reactions from fans in the Crowd. In Fifa 09, i was playing an away match and one of the players on the Home team got sent off but the shot of the crowd just showed the fans sitting still like they were at a funeral. Show the realism of passionate fans who are angry at their team going down to 10 men.

Commentary - Needs improvements to. way to many bugs. A new Commentary script would be ideal but if EA do recycle the same script please fix the bugs.

- It would be good if the Commentators mentioned the actual Cup competition in finals, rather than just having a Generic Commentary sample for all finals.

- When you sign a player who scores on his debut, the Commentator will talk about how estastic he will be to score in his first match for the club.

- When playing in 2 leg Cup tie's, ie. the Elalalanockout stages. the Commentators will be fully aware of the current situation and in the 2nd leg will talk about what is required from each team to progess. ie, if the 1st leg was 0-0 and your losing 1-0 in the 2nd leg, Martin Tylor will say 'insert teams name' need just one goal now to progess into the next round, can they find that vital goal from somewhere'. Then Andy Grey can put in a comment about the likelyhood of you getting a goal taking into account how the game has developed so far, how many shots you've had, etc...

- Occasionally talking about the League table situation and reflecting accurately on what result you need and can realistically achieve - especially when your either challenging for the title or in a relegation battle.

- If your management is poor ie, you choose a bad formation which results in you conceding a few goals they will talk about the bad tactics employed by the manager and mention exactly where it went wrong. ie, you failed to get any service to the strikers

Custom Tactics - In Fifa 09, each time you start a match it reverts back to your Default Custom tactics instead of your Saved Custom tactics. The ability to start every match without having to change it back to the Saved tactics manually would be good.

More Customization -
Goal Replays. A setting to change the length of Goal Replays and change the camera angle for when they are shown after a Goal. so you can see the build up of Goals and select your prefered camera angle.

Throw ins. A setting which ables you to choose Throw-in takers, plus a stat should be added for Throw-in takers ability.

Free kicks. The ability to move your wall from side to side when facing a free kick.

Trophy Celebrations - In Cup finals show the winning team lifting the Trophy. Makes the feeling of winning it so much better!
