Funny! 
i'm watching them right now...
for headers, the harder you push the harder they are? or doesn't it matter?
and han, do you i could kill you for missing that goal. It was a chip to youre player who was wide open in the box and he one timed it and pulled a david beckham (50 metres over the crossbalr) the video is good though

No, the harder you press, the higher it goes, just like shooting.
Yes, you are right, I should not miss that one, just what I said I was not in top form
I missed a sitter in the second half as well
When in normal form I score about 1 in three chances (a chance is not the same as a shot 
)

I was told the harder you push the harder the shot, the LONGER you push it in the higher it goes??
And what about keeper faking, the fake shot basically kills them in practice, they fall over as if they've been shot? I've tried it a couple times in a game and it doesn't seem to work.... does it work just as well in a regualar match?

I am not aware there is much difference in shooting hard or not.
I ment the longer you press it the higher it goes.
As far as I know you shoot harder for next reasons:
1. when you run faster: Shooting while standing still, the ball never get the speed as if you running high speed and hitting the ball.
2. Timing right, pressing the button when the player is at the right distance with the ball.
As you did see in the video, there were some hard shots and if that's because I pressed the button harder, then I did it unconciously

No this is for defending. If you do it while attacking you walk away from the ball.
The reason you use R1+R2 while defending is because you can freely run anywhere. If you dont use them you will feel a little restricted while trying to move around while the ball is not at your feet.

50-50 airballs you cannot do much about. It comes down to positioning and the players abilities (balance, height, strength and jumping)
The best advice i can give you is defending headers in crowded areas.
For example when the oppenent has a corner.
Press triangle to make the keeper charge out. While you do that REPEATEDLY press header and L1. This will make more then one defender attempt the header. The more people contesting the header, the harder it is to control the header.
You will get the odd unbeatable header that is fast and flat but 95% of the time doing what i said above will clear the ball or have it in keepers hands.
Something else to watch out for.
When the opponent tries a long ball and you have to head the ball in your own half, NEVER head sideways. Always head forwards or backwards. 99% of the time your player will stupidly header it to a running oppenent.
All these little things you pick up as you play more.

When you have a change heading at goal, ALWAYS head downwards. So either head to bottom left or bottom right.
One thing you will notice alot is when you cross the ball you will have the receiver running backwards to get into position to head the ball. For best affect always head the ball DOWN and to the direction the person is running.
The ONLY time you head the ball the oppisite direction is when the ball is flat and you dont have to jump to high to get to it. Or else you will not control it.
The nice thing about this game is that you can play it different ways. You seem to have a totally other way then most of us and I cannot resist to make some comments about some of them, if you dont mind
You can try still win these balls using R2 (makes your player move freely), moving close to your opponent (or even better, move in front of your opponent if you can!), followed by very good timing. Just try it out sometimes.
I agree for a big part of your description, but I strongly advice AGAINST charging the goalkeeper out with a corner and even more against doing that by repeatedly hitting triangle. That way the keeper is all over the place and you increase the chance that the opponent has an easy shot/header in an empty goal.
BTW, I also disagree about your way of using R1+R2. It is very difficult to hold these buttons AND using your other fingers to hold the gamepad in your hand AND use your thumb to press the right buttons.
Another reason is because there is no need for. There is a setting to switch howmuch the CPU steers your man (in the player-setting).
It varies from auto to complete manual. Using your free way of playing goes best by setting to complete manual.
But still, if you like your way, go ahead, but I think it is very difficult. Not fitted you teach others who look for an easy way of improving their game...

Not nescessarely! If you have a free header, you simply can use the X-button for a header and than you can 'pass' it to your own men without risk. I think your example is correct when using the [] or O for heading, but even than I would NEVER advice to head back! If you pass in the feet of an opponent behind you, it is even more dangerous! If you are in doubt where to pass, just pass forward, off from your goal!
