100% agree with you. This was a weakness of Euro 2004. Half the players had incorrect preferred feet.
I can tell you that this is one area that is much improved. I know for certain that Henry takes set-pieces right footed. Matt Holme (former webmaster of Soccer Gaming) is one of those at EA making sure that this area is greatly improved this year.
EA this year have gone to great lengths to improve FIFA back to how is should be. Every area of the game should be better than ever, including the data. There has only been positive signals coming from those who have played FIFA 2005. We shall see in October, but I'm confident that it will be a great game.
Hopefully it will also be fixed in other leagues other than the EPL. In FIFA 2004, the database for EPL was really accurate, but they meesed up in other leagues.
And speakin` from a gameplay point of view, players should also be less accurate, less strong, and less balanced when they`re forced to kicked with their weaker foot due to tight defence markin` ( like Beckham was as good as dead in real-life when his crossin` angle with his right foot closed down by a good defender ). So I hope the favourite foot settings doesn`t only effect the players` stance when takin` free kicks or penalties ( lefties should act like lefties on open play or vice versa ).
If FIFA wanna beat WE8, this is one area they should really be focused on, cos` in WE8 the favourite foot settings seems more unstable than in the previous versions.

You're saying that you can make or that you hope you can make? Cause i think that this was ****ty, you should be able to make a short corner with a pass...
Well, I disagree. It does give a lot of effects on gameplay. For example, you are controllin` a left footed Recoba, but the tight defenders marking you down so closely that they manage to close down your shootin` angle with your left foot, what would you do ? You would try to get around the defender until you get a proper shootin` angle, or give it a go with your right ( but there`s a big chance it would miss, weaker, or way out of goal ), or you can pass it back to your teammates in a more free space. See, just one factor manages to gives you so many options like in real-life football. This factor will also force you to use your brain and strategy when thinking about havin` a shoot or makin` a pass, cos` you need to be sure wheter it can be done with your favourite foot to gain more accuracy. Some exceptional players tough has an equal skills with both of their foot, so this why we need some kind of a "tolerance" settings, so we can set how good they`re when they`re usin` their wrong foot.

well in one of the producer diarys Danny Isac said that Henry can really fly down the pitch. so that means that Zidane can probably fly down the pitch too in fifa!
ya in the gameplay videos you could clearly see that henry was faster than the defender. he flatfooted him and sprinted by to set up a cross. so im guessing that the speed attributes have a greater impact in 05 then they did in 04
