Play Fifa 10 like a game of chess
Advanced tip
A valuable tip to share is to always look at all the positions and running movement of your players. This will help you to improve your game play tactics.Personally, I play the game like a game of chess. In chess, one will develop his pieces, analyse all possible moves to attack the opponent weak positions to gain the advantage.
Similarly, in Fifa 10, try not to limit your vision to the players who are near the ball. Observe all your players positions and movement before making your next move. For example, when your opponent player rush toward your player, try to pass it your unmarked player to create space. This will allow you to have more time to analyse your next move.
Cheers!
Rest In Peace Robert Enke
Goalkeeper of Germany and Hannover 96 (1977 - 2009)

Robert Enke, the Hannover and Germany goalkeeper, killed himself by apparently throwing himself before a train on Tuesday 10th Nov 2009. He was 32.
Robert, we will always remember you. You will always be our Number one. Rest in Peace.

Your opinion of this 40 yards goal
Scored by Steven Gerrard

I was playing Fifa 10 on Justin TV with JOELLFC09 (PSN) in a online unranked match where his Liverpool team Steven Gerrard scored an amazing unstoppable 40 yards goal.
Luckily, this 40 yards goal was recorded by Justin TV for everyone to view the replay over and over again.
So, in your opinion, do you think that this is a legitimate goal or do you think that this is Fifa 10 glitch?
My Fifa 10 PS3 wireless controller settings

Many readers are asking me to share my controller settings. Basically I play with full assisted and semi for crossing. You can try semi setting for shooting too.
The "Auto Switching" is set to 2 clicks to the right. You can try 1 click too but I will not really advice 0 (zero) auto switching unless you can switch really fast when making a cross or intercepting a rebound ball.
The 1 to 2 clicks auto switching helps to switch to the player closer to the ball.
By the way, the auto switching is still flawed because at many times, it switches to the incorrect player who is far away from the ball.
The auto switching has caused many players defensive lapsed as well when the incorrect defender is being "auto" switched to defend.
The only solution to the "Auto Switching" flaw is to press the switch player button quickly to the correct player.
The above serves only as a guide. One should always set to their preferred playing style.
Saving penalty tip
Watch the player's head
Personally, I used this tip during penalty kicks to help me judge the penalty kick direction more effectively. Lastly, it is also more effective to move your keeper as soon as your opponent player starts to run towards the ball.
Ball possession (Part 3)
Train your vision
Most of us losses the ball against high aggression and pressure teams because they only think of where to play the ball only after receiving the ball.The meaning of vision is to look ahead for chance creation. If you have good football/soccer vision, you can see the next 1-2 built up passes before you made a pass. This is extremely effective to exploit defensive gaps against high aggression and high pressure teams.
By visioning ahead, this allows you to make extremely quick and effective built up passes to your players to create more goal scoring chances. One can also combine good visioning with effective pass and move tactics (L1/LB + X/A) to improve your attack.
To train your visioning skills, one method is to learn from real soccer/football matches.
Ball possession (Part 2)
Using close control L2/LT button
In Fifa 10, personally I would say the close control is less effective than in Fifa 09 because in Fifa 10, your players are easily knock over by charging defenders even if you use close control. However, you can have higher percentage of getting being fouled when being tackled.
Another effective way to use close control is with the sprint button for fast turning the opponent's players. When your player has the ball with the back facing the opponent, observe the movement of the opponent player. If he is moving to your left, make a quick turn to your right by holding L2/LT + sprint button. You can also execute feint movements (left and right) before turning.
Close control is a good key skill to keep practising to make it perfect. Cheers.
The following video demonstrate using close control to intercept a pass and having the ball close to the feet to score.
Ball possession (Part 1)
Using custom tactics
Many readers are requesting more information on ball possession how-to and custom tactics for 5 stars team. To achieve good ball possession, there are many factors to consider. I will explain these factors into different parts for easier understanding.The first part on ball possession will examine how ball possession is associated with custom tactics. In real life soccer/football, ball possession is important for any teams to create chances and team momentum (In Fifa 10, the "momentum" is something that needs to be explore further).
In the "Build up" custom tactics setting, the "Passing" attribute determines the distance of the passes support. If you have a low passing attribute, your players will be closer for the passes. Conversely, if your the passing attribute is high, your players will be positioned further for the passes.
Another "Passing" attribute in the "Chance creation" custom tactics setting affects your players' movement near the opponent's penalty box. If you wish to have more movement in the penalty box to create more passing chances, then this "Passing" attribute can be set higher.
Important:
Do also note that your players "Tactics aware" and "Vision" attributes plays a very important part in executing the custom tactics settings. If the player "Tactics aware" is low, then this player will not be that effective or slow to perform your custom tactics settings. The "Vision" attributes affects how well the player can run into space to create chances.
For better ball possession playing style, you can set the "Passing" attributes as follows. Do take it as a reference only and tweak it to suit your playing style:
Build Up:
Speed 80
Passing 33
Positioning Organised
Chance Creation:
Passing 66
Crossing 70
Shooting 67
Positioning Free Form
Defence:
Pressure 10
Aggression 100
Team Width 65
Defender Line Cover
Fifa 10 power header technique

However, in Fifa 10, it is quite different and the heading requires more aiming even for assisted shooting.
Power header techniques:
1. To execute a power header, press the shoot button and aim the direction stick just before the ball is about to land.
2. Observe the cross symbol on the field to gauge where the ball is going to land. This is to give you a guide on where you should aim your header with respect to the goal post.
3. Do not press the shoot button too early because in Fifa 10, if you press the shoot button too early, your player will not react to it.
4. Do not hold on to the shoot button too long. Release the shoot button just before the ball is about to land on to the player.
Click on Thierry Henry image and watch the power header scored by Thierry Henry using the above technique.
Enjoy!
Offside trap and Cover defender line tactics
Which defender line tactics you use or prefer?
In Fifa 10, there are two types of defender line tactics namely the "Offside trap" and the "Cover". My personal preference is the "Cover" defender line tactics, so what's yours? Cast your vote here to see the choices made by most players.
Offside trap:
If your defender line tactics is set to "Offside trap", your defenders will try to catch the opponents offside by moving up the defending line. Moreover, your defenders will stay in their defending zone and not move away from their zone unnecessary.
In my opinion, the "Offside trap" in Fifa 10 is more effective than in Fifa 09 because for some strange reasons, the Fifa 10 defender who is not near the ball is always allowing or helping the opponent player to be "Onside". Therefore, to compensate such AI issue, the "Offside trap" seem to be a good solution.
However, the main weakness of the "Offside trap" tactics is that your defenders may not be able to provide cover for each other and the lower rated team defenders (e.g. 2 stars) may also find it hard to catch the faster opponent players offside.
Cover:
The other defending line tactics is the "Cover" where your defenders will move towards the "action" when defending. The advantage of the "Cover" tactics is to allow more bodies to tackle the opponents and your defenders are closer to each other thus covering each other when defending.
The disadvantage of the "Cover" tactics is that your defenders will move away from their defending zone to help out the other defending zone. This defence gaps can be exposed by quick attack side switching to a unmarked player in the undefended zone.
To compensate such weakness, it is advisable to set your defence team width to around 60-70.
Defending and counter attack tactics video clips
Seattle vs Germany (Online rank match)
This game illustrates the importance of good defending and counter attack tactics. To be able to defend well is the first step to learn if you wish to win matches. You should be able to observe the importance of switching to the correct player when defending quick counter attacks.
Defending tips:
Tip 1: Learn to switch to your correct player when defending.
Tip 2: Do not commit your defender too early to tackle the ball unless there is another defender covering him.
Tip 3: Use the call 2nd defender button to tackle the opponent near the penalty box area.
Tip 4: Clear the ball in the penalty box unless the ball can be passed confidently to another open space player.
Tip 5: Avoid sliding tackle to avoid getting too many yellow cards.
Tip 6: Use jockeying when your opponent is trying to use skill moves to pass your defender.
Corner kick heading goal (New update)
Using custom set pieces - Seattle vs Man City online match

Prerequisites:
1. Create a custom set piece to position 2 players near the far post, for both the left and right corner kicks.
In Fifa 10, the heading accuracy of the players seem erratic at times. This short video clip hopefully will give you some tips on how to create goals from a corner kick.

When taking a corner kick, choose your custom set piece to instruct your players to run near the far post.
The corner kick power should be around 70%-75% so that the ball will at least reach the far post without being intercepted by the keeper.
The crucial key part is here. Try not to move the left directional stick when the ball is in the air. Allow the computer to position the far post player for you (player switching settings should be 1%).
When the ball is in the air, it is also quite effective to hold the L2/LT button to allow your player to fight for a better position before the ball lands.
Just when the ball is about to land, aim the direction left stick toward the goal and press the X/A pass button (once) at the same time. By pressing the X/A pass button, the ball will less likely to be headed over the bar.
Try it to convert your corner kicks into goal. Cheers.
FIFA 10 Mexican-Spanish Commentary
Extremely hilarious commentary pack - thumbs up
Watch the below video which I uploaded to YouTube. Enjoy!
Taking a low free kick under the wall and effective free kick tips
To execute a low free kick, you just need to hold L1/LB + shoot button. The power of the shoot should be less than 40% power. Aim the shot direction as shown in the diagram and video clip.

For the low free kick to go under the wall, you must be lucky too to guess that the players forming the wall will jump up, anticipating a high shot.
The second video teaches you how to take effective curving free kicks.
Fifa 10 skilled dribbling tutorial
How to hold on the ball and other important tricks (video included)

To hold off players, my personal style is to try to let go of the direction joystick. This way, you can use the Fifa 10 enhanced ball shielding by holding R2/RT to hold back the ball. Some players find it hard to shield the ball because they are always moving the left direction joystick.
The last method to hold on to ball is to use the classic close control by holding L2/LT while dribbling and turning your defenders. You can also use close control to trap the fast moving ball better.

Fifa 10 realistic game speed
Fifa 10 has three game speed mode (slow, normal and fast).
The question put forward is not about which speed you like to use; but which game speed you find it more realistic as compared to real life football/soccer.
Corner kick in Fifa 10
Ground shot goal
To execute a corner kick, aim your direction at the far goal post but not too near the goal keeper. You will have to practice to find the right direction for you. The power of the corner kick should be about 70%-75% power so the ball can fly over to the far post to avoid being intercepted by the keeper.When the ball is about to land, tap the shoot button a few times just before the ball is about to land. If you are using manual shooting, you will need to aim your shot properly. Similarly for assisted shooting, even though the computer can help you to aim the shooting direction, it is also advisable to also aim your shot when tapping the shoot button.

Lobbing the Fifa 10 goal keeper
To execute a lob, my recommendation is to use the L1/LB + shoot button. Alternatively, some of you might prefer to use L2/LT + cross button to lob instead.Personally, I feel that the L1/LB + shoot button is easier and more accurate as compare to the later method.

Fifa 10 Free Kick Stance
This question was posted by QPRbrad in the EA forum and I think that it is good to set up a poll here for readers' comments. I've voted "Yes" because the heels up and hunched back free kick stance does seem weird to me.
Quote: "No one stands like it that with their back hunched over and their heel up, I know this isn't a big deal but should be redone."

I just bought a usb powered air ionizer!
Highly recommend if you play Fifa for multiple hours in your stuffy room
Just to let you guys know that I've just bought a usb powered air ionizer (USD$50) for my room. :-)The air in the room has become fresher with aroma and less dusty now.
I'm not sure if it helps in my Fifa game play too lol...
Since it is powered by usb, it will be powered on whenever I turned on my PS3 or laptop.
Hopefully, I will be healthier and more focus when playing the upcoming Fifa 10. LOL.
You can buy it online from Amazon here.

- There is no one size fits all custom tactics for sure win. You will need to keep practising to improve. The custom tactics for your team is unique to your playing style only. If you really wish to improve, just play a low rated team and use Seattle sounders default custom tactics. For fast abuser team like Real Madrid, you can go to my Fifa 09 blogs are use the custom tactics which I've highlight in the Ultimate team section.

- I like playing a fast short passing style with the tendency to hit quite a few long throughballs to get strikers to breakaway. Im finding that the 4-3-3 formation with narrow wingers and a cdm effective. Do you have any suggestions on strengthening the defense of such a formation and i also find that the wingers tend 2 get isolated. Cheers
