Penalties
When you have been awarded a penalty, there are several shots you can take. The driven shot is used if you want to blast the ball past the keeper with pace. A driven shot with 40% - 60% power on the power bar can go past the keeper with great pace and/or go in the top corner when you have an almost certain chance of scoring.

Easier Manager Mode
Before you start a manager mode look in the national teams and see if their are any good players who do not play for a club, 2 that i picked were Arshavin and Vagner Love, and trade them to free agents and then you don't have to pay anything for some really good players.



Great Youth team 4-3-3
GK - Joe Hart (20)
RB - Dani Alves (24 - but young for a Rb)
CB - Micah Richards (19)
CB - Martin Caceres (19)
LB - Gareth Bale (19)
CM - Cesc Fabregas (20)
CM - Iniesta (23)
CAM - Diego (22)
RW - Cristiano Ronaldo (22) or Lionel Messi (20)
ST - Fernando Torres (23) or Bojan (17)
LW - Theo Walcott (19) or whoever you didn't pick for RW

Average age = 20 - 21 (depending on your choices).



Charged Throw
With a good keeper (Van Der Sar or Cech etc.) When the keeper has the ball in his hands, sprint to the front of the box and throw the ball at full power for a throw that can reach the half way line.



Close Free Kicks Advice
When taking a free kick from just outside the box or a little bit further, hold down LB and RB and aim for the right or left side of the goal depending on what side of the goal you are standing on. If you are in the middle aim to the players strongest foot.

Hit the ball at about quarter power and it should go in pretty much all the time



Clean sheets
For clean sheets to be credited in season, tournament, Be A Pro Season, manager modes (everything outside exhibitions), it would be the final keeper present at the end of a shutout (clean sheet) game. For example, if you start with Edwin Van der Sar in the first half, Thomasz Kusczak in the beginning of second half, but finish with Wayne Rooney in goal because Kusczak was red-carded, and the final score was 2-0, Rooney will be credited with the clean sheet, and not Edwin Vander Sar. Kusczak is ineligible because he was red-carded. The clean sheet is void if any goals are scored against them. If any keeper conceded a goal, any substitute keepers in goal will not benefit even if they didn't concede any further goals.

Help in manager mode
If you are looking for lots if good-average players in manager mode but don't want to spend then look in the Russian/Ukrainian international squads. The majority of them don't play for a club so add them to free agents and get them for free in manager mode.

Arena free-kick
To take a Free-Kick whilst in the arena simple go to a position you want to take your free-kick from and press on any button on the D-Pad.

Sprinting - Jogging
When you have possession and it looks difficult to get past the line of defence sprint through an open area. When making your way into the box, never shoot whilst sprinting. Shooting at this point can make your shot less accurate as shooting whilst jogging.

Diving header
If you are struggling to do a diving header simply follow these instructions to add that extra trophy to your trophy collection. To complete this you must be familiar with the crossing controls. You will never complete a diving header by sending in a simple cross that is completed by holding [SQUARE]. You must send in a low cross by tapping [SQUARE] x2. This puts more pace on the ball and forces the reciever to use his feet or dive towards the ball if he wants to score. More often than enough he will use his feet but if his heading accuracy is high he will launch his head towards the ball.

Free agents
Stop! Hold it right there! Don't even think about buying that player for £~~. I am sure that you can find a much better player off the free agent's list. You can put them into your team for free and more often than enough they will need a low salary. Simply search on the detailed section and go down to the transfer status section and move it across to free agents.

Chipping
When 1-on-1 with the keeper, there is a certain chance that he will come off his line. At this point there is a simple shot that must be considered. Chip. This is very effective when the keeper is off his line and is about to dive at your feet. When the keeper is off his line and you are in the box, attempt to beat the keeper with this shot for a good goal.

Extra forward
When you are attacking alone against several defenders, you can call for others on your team to give you some assisstance in the front third of the pitch. Simply press up on the D-Pad and a defender will help you out on the attack.

Scouting
When scouting you can experriment with different positions, nationalities and scouting time. For more and better players always experiment with these and find which costs the most. This doesn't work very well if you have no money but can be very helpful if you want young, cheap players.

Dribbling
When dribbling, more often than enough you will have your opponents at your side trying to get closer so they can make a clean tackle. To avoid this situation, try changing paces and direction so it is harder for the defender to predict your next move. Also try sprinting and then make a hard stop to make it more difficult for the defenders to tackle you.

Finesse shot
Finesse shot is very effective when close to goal as it is a shot that is hit by the side of the foot. It is used when close to goal and to trick the keeper so he doesn't know where the ball will land. It is also used when you are off balance or under great pressure from the defence. The shot is also more accurate than a driven shot as there is less power needed in the shot.

Russians
As there is no Russian League currently on FIFA 09, there are many 'decent' Russians who do not play for a club. This is a huge advantage in manager mode as you can simply put these in your team without affecting online squads. Firstly, make your way to 'Manage Teams' in the Main Menu and select 'Club Transfers'. Press [X] and then once more. Scroll down the list for players who are not playing for any clubs and put them into the 'Free Agents'. Start a manager mode season and search for free agents on the transfer market. The players you selected will be in this list.

Pressing
When you are losing, drawing, or just want the ball back in the game, team pressing can really help if you can't get the ball back with just one or two players. Pressing [RIGHT] on the D-Pad will force your team to try harder to win the ball back. This also brings more players into the game if they are just standing around.

Creation zone
When you are with your favourite team and feel that your players could be better, use this tip. When in the creation zone, click edit player and select the player by team and click edit. Go over to EXP and take all of the points of that player that are useless eg. if you're editing a striker, take all of his goalie and defence skills off of him. Then use this spare points on useful abilities.
