One really annoying thing is that you can't kick far enough. From a goal kick the ball goes to halfway, wheres in real life its closer to the opposition penalty box sometimes. Also I want to see the keeper takind any free kick in the defensive 3rd, and you can kick free kicks as far as a goal kick. And the goalkeeper needs to come out of his box to clear, drop the ball at his feet sometimes.Take quick free kicks, goal kicks and corners, and choose who takes the free kick on the spot.

i would like the kicks to be taken in real time so that you can take advantage of the other team being too far back.

Same with throws.

and wind- in big stadiums it is sheltered but small ones are really affected. On a windy day you can kick the ball to the other goalie if the wind is behind you

The guys that make FIFA arent the same as the ones that make Madden. Plus, do you think Danny Isaac is American? No and most of them arent.

You know what would be awesome to do. To be able to pick up the ball with the goalkeeper if you pass it to him. That way you could kill time dribbling the ball and if a foward comes to close all you do it pick it back up again. That would would be brilliant, although I don't think they will add this feature until Fifa 2017.

Yeah, but eventually if the keeper, picks the ball in a direct pass then it'd be indirect free kick inside the box, and if the keeper was outside the box then it'd be a red card for the keeper. But i don't think such thing as being able to pick the ball when you pass to the keeper is needed. i seriously didn't like the Goal kicks and indirect free kicks, 'cuz in a way or another you finished doing a pass to a player, and not every indirect free kick, goal kick is supposed to be a pass. And yeah, keepers can do direct free kicks too.

Yeah, well he even made a goal from behind the midfield once, around the 60m. Probably nowadays not many keepers go doing direct free kicks, but there's no rule against it, so you should be able to do that too, also penalties and corners(i don't think i've ever seen a keeper doing corners but it's not forbidden). And eventually some keepers have more interaction with the play than others.

why the hell can't he be american? America has people from all over the world who keep their original names... i don't see why he can't be american.

ALSO! I remember brad freidel scoring from a corner kick, they centered the ball to him and he scored. So you should be able to even pull your goal keeper for a corner, he could be useful if you're trailing by a goal and need the extra person in there.

I once scored from a Corner Kick, pure luck, i made the corner but my header and the defender that was marking him, both missed the ball, then a second defender, tried to clear the ball but missed and the ball went in and the goal was given to the one that shut the corner. In purpose of these. When you take too much time to do a free kick, goal kick, etc. Once you do it the game should get stopped, and the player would get a booking. Instead of do it randomly if you don't do it, and also the thing about keepers holding the ball for more than 6 seconds, and if the time passes then there would be a free kick inside the box, but i think they'd make some mess with those.

This is one of the thing that annoyed me in previous FIFA's. In real life you see goalkeepers belting the ball the length of the pitch. I'm sure I have seen in one of the gameplay videos a goalkeeper kicking the ball past his half way line though.
