Having many of the other threads here, I thought i should air my own views::
Things that need fixing -
1) Game speed(performance)
I am sure that mose people playing the PC version of Fifa2003 are having performance issues with 2003, a fact that should not really happen with the hardware on the market now. I have a PIV2.6 running a GF4Ti 4400 graphics card and this game is very choppy, this is something that really needs to be fixed, if so many people are having trouble playing the game at reasonable frame rates, you won't sell any more of these half baked titles.
To add to that, I regularly play the PS2 version and having quite some fun, I don't need the customisations on the console, it's fine the way it is, but the performance issues are there as well, every now and again there is jerkiness in the play, doesn't last long.
You cannot use the 'too many types of hardware' excuse on a dedicated system.
2) Headers
In this version of fifa, headers are just lame, much has been spoken of already regarding this, maybe an indicator when a player is capable of heading the ball and a similar system to your shooting, of course with realistic ball physics instead of the straight lines at the moment, that would be nice, or something like that
3) Positional systems
Players move out of position too quickly, there should be, orders to quickly give the team, regroup, fall back, push up, etc.
4) Team management
what the heck happened to 'IGM'? having differing formations was very handy and is a feature that i'm sure is surely missed, possibly different player position setups for every formation, configurable from the team management window, i could go on, but most of the things i could discuss have been present in earlier titles, such as player positioning, custom formations, maybe the ability to adjust every single players in game tactics, and have different sets of tactics for every IGM, that sounds good don't it?
5) half time sub!!
What happened to the half time sub? Heck, what happened to half time team management? Yes, i know that you can make the sub before the second half kicks in, how often does everyone remember that? not often, at least i don't anyway, lol.
6)Injured players
Are they injected with steroids? do they carry it with them? I see absolutely no difference to a players ability whether they are injured or not.....
"Henry has severely injured his Knee" then gathers the ball, runs half the length of the pitch and scores, seen it happen on PS2.
7)Aftertouch
If it's not broken, don't fix it, remember sensible soccer, it had a very simple aftertouch system, i believe TiF uses the same system, move the stick, ball curls, it was that simple, why not go back to it? huh? (don't tell me it can't be done because it's in 3D, shouldn't be a difficult concept to grasp).

Whooo, that's a load off, isn't 2004 the 10 year anniversary? make it good peoples, give me a copy to beta-test, i'll sort you lot out
