FIFA Soccer 2005

2 stars (seems fifa is making each of its sequel worst than before) - the video has minor glitches.the ball and players move slowly.its a pain to get a goal.it just wansn;t right.i didn't like anything in this game 3 stars (Arcade version, not a simulation) - If you want to play football without much control depth then choose this over the European "Pro Evolution Soccer 4" (title is "Winning 11" in the US) and if you have heard the buzz surrounding that game then you should know that it is in the top three sports simulations of all time. Winning 11 however is not an out-of-box game, taking days to learn, weeks to master and then improve on with other players. FIFA works straight out of box, is easy, but its limits become all too obvious in light on Winning 11, a game has been in development since the Nintendo 64 and is easily the best soccer engine out there. The bottom line is that if you want a soccer game that works out of box, that you can play almost right away with anybody, then FIFA has it. If you want a real soccer sim that takes longer to get into but is far better, then choose Winning 11. 4 stars (Fifa 2005) - Fifa 2005 is very simialar to Fifa 2004. But there are differences between the two. I really like 2005 more for the reasons that the new style is really cool. The music in the game is killer [they went for a more international music approach, rather than just the American music scene], and there is a visible differnece in the graphics upgrade. Basically, its an updated version of 2004. However, I bought this just for the hell of it, but 2005 doesnt come anywhere close to Winning Eleven 7. I bought Winning Eleven 8 recently, but it was in Japanese, but the gameplay is so much better. In F2005, no matter how many times you press sprint, the players just move so slow. The stadiums itselfs are not very lively, [i only saw one flag waving in the enitre crowd]. I bought 2005 mainly because I lost Winning Eleven 7, but Fifa 2005 is still pretty worth the ...

Gamecube - FIFA Soccer 2006

4 stars (Getting MUCH Closer) - After reading the reviews on this site, I decided to buy Fifa '06 for Gamecube. I'm very glad I did. While still not at the highest level it could be, I do feel there are enough improvements to justify the upgrade from '05 (and I liked '05). IMPROVEMENTS: 1) Ball handling is totally different. Many more dribbling opportunities... it's actually possible for a midfielder to get around a defender now. 2) Passing is also completely modified. Rather than passing or crossing to a player, you pass or cross to an area of the field. Sounds negative at first, but it makes things so much more realistic. Rather than having to remember some button combo to get the ball to behave how you want it, if you want to chip a ball in the box, just aim and try to get the right pressure on the button. In the old system, I'd often aim at a teammate and the computer would think I was aiming somewhere else. Now I feel I can aim the ball with greater accuracy. 3) They changed the announcers, which is reason enough to buy the upgrade! 4) Manager mode and the player creation center are both vast improvements over previous versions of Fifa. 5) Corner kicks, substitutions and throw-ins are much improved. 6) The computer is MUCH more intelligent. It used to just run down into the corners and cross the ball in the box, so once you figured out the patterns, the computer would no longer be a challenge. Now it will string passes together and try to go down the middle occasionally. The computer now also acquires cards and makes substitutions (previously you'd be the only team making subs and getting carded). 7) There's actually documentation for game features and little symbols used throughout the game! Not only is the manual a bit more in depth, but there are also places you can go in the game to learn how to play and what everything means. NEGATIVES: 1) While overall gameplay seems faster, taking shots on goal almost seems like slow motion. It seems like there's no p...

PS2 FIFA Soccer 2006

2 stars (a bundle of irritation) - This, more even than its predecessors, is a lazy game that swaps challenge for mere irritation. Players will run off in all directions without reason, and stop, pause, and turn the wrong way to miss key passes or interceptions; will take ten yards (no joke) to stop from a run; will simply ignore a clear pass to an open player, and substitute a silly pass to a distant player on the opposite side of the pitch; and a through-ball, if too good, will magically speed up halfway through (no joke), in order to get to the keeper before an onrushing forward. In other words, EA couldn't be bothered to develop a clever game - instead, in order to make it competitive, they made it arbitrary, disingenuous, and utterly stupid. 4 stars (Best Footie Game Ever!) - By far the best ever. Played Winning Eleven 8 last year and enjoyed it but this is much better. It has everything you would want and more. Easy to learn but difficult to master, FIFA06 appeals to gamers at every skill level. The online account sign-up is pretty painful when done through the PS2. If you need to sign up for a new account, it's much easier to go to easports.com and do it directly from their website. A must-have for every gamer's library! PROS: + Smooth graphics + Realistic gameplay + Challenge System: 104 Built-In! + Responsive, pressure-sensitive controls + Exclusive Licenses + Supports up to 8 players with 2 multi-taps. + Game Depth: 1st & 2nd divisions in some leagues, Team Chemistry, Performance Meter, Player Styles, etc. CONS: + More an EA Sports problem but online gaming could be better. $2 fee or subject yourself to promotions. Hard to sign up through the console (easy if done on website). OK, enough typing, I'm gonna go play again. ;P 4 stars (Better, but still not as goosd as WE/PES) - I have been bying FIFA since 2002, and by farthis is the best one of them. But still, it is missing the realistic ball control and the really good way of difinition WE/PES have. The...

Coaching Youth Soccer- A Baffled Parent-s Guide

5 stars (extremely helpful) - I am coaching my daughter's U-8 AYSO soccer team this season and was in desperate need of an easy overview of rules as well as age and skill appropriate drills for practices. This book was very helpful and I am using it as a resource. 5 stars (Very Good Beginners Book) - This is a very good book for the beginner coach or parent who wants to work with their child. I bought this to learn the basics of soccer and work with my 4.5 year old. I knew nothing of the sport and this book was a great resource for me. Plus, it has tons of great games to make practice fun on top of learning the skills. 5 stars (Coaching Bible!) - This should be mandatory reading for ALL youth team coaches, at all levels! This is the BIBLE for coaches...and many other youth sport coaches would gain a lot of wisdom reading Clarks ideas!!! ...

XB FIFA Soccer 2006

2 stars (Disappointed) - I read the other rave reviews of this game, and I am confused. I've owned this game for about two weeks now, and these are my observations. I am only going to compare this game to the previous versions, as I don't play any other computer/video game system FIFA games. Several things annoy me about this game. For one, I have never had to play any of the previous versions of this franchise on the amateur level just to be competitive. Until this version. Players do not move well without the ball. I cannot permanently set a team strategy, such as defense or attack or wing play or long ball, you have to set them as the game is going along, and I never have any idea whether my players are doing what I have set or not. In previous versions, the defense would take the ball away from you as soon as they made contact with you, but not in every case (such as with the better players against weaker teams). In this version, I can be Real Madrid playing Crystal Palace and my forwards will lose the ball as soon as any random defender touches them. Free kicks are more complicated than in previous versions. When I hit the control to tell players to run, in previous versions they would start moving up field. In this version, they barely move at all, and most times ignore my request for them to run. The transfer central control is a joke. Even when I am good teams, I have to overspend to sign even average players, but more often than not, I cannot sign the players I want no matter how much money I throw at them and their current team (as you have to set a transfer fee and salary during negotiations). Maybe I am missing something. Maybe there are controls I have yet to figure out. But as of right now, I prefer FIFA 05 to this game hands-down. As I said, I've never had to play any of the previous versions of this franchise on the amateur setting just to be competitive. It's disappointing, to say the least. 4 stars (Much improved) - This is by far the best EA has...

How Soccer Explains the World - An Unlikely Theory of Globalization

4 stars (Good writing and reporting, though the title's a stretch) - Reader Derrick Peterman's review here on these pages nails it squarely on the button for me: while these 10 essays by Franklin Foer are good writing and reporting, to say for each of them "How Soccer Explains..." is really quite a stretch. Who knows if Foer himself came up with this hook or whether it got foisted on him by editors and PR types, but it really doesn't do the book or its well-meaning author justice. For example, in the chapter "How Soccer Explains the Jewish Question," we get some good reporting on the anti-Semitic overtones of some teams and well as the Jewish roots of others. But to say, therefore, that soccer 'explains' the 'Jewish Question'? Ummm...No. But don't let that dissuade you from picking up a copy of Foer's work. Again, there's terrific reporting here - standouts include chapters on "The Black Carpathians" (my personal favorite) which focuses on a Nigerian import to a top Ukranian club team, and "The New Oligarchs," an excellent overview on soccer's shift from paternalistic industrialists like the Agnellis (owners of Juventus) to new-styled "oligarchs" like Silvio Berlusconi (owner of AC Milan). By using a term like 'oligarch,' I was hoping for some red meat on Chelsea's Roman Abramovich. The oligarch's oligarch, he gets only passing mention in "The Sentimental Hooligan" chapter. Still, Foer's discection of the machinations and interactions of Italian media, business interests and the game are fascinating. And, for those of you wondering: yes, Franklin Foer is the brother of novelist Jonathan Safran Foer, author of "Everything Is Illuminated." 4 stars (The book I wish I had written!) - This is a work based on an interesting concept and complemented by well-researched journalism, with the exception of a few overt inaccuracies such as this one: "Celebrations for Romania's 1990 World Cup qualification carried over into the Bucharest squares, culminating in a firi...

Fever Pitch

5 stars (Reveals the behaviour of a typical fanatic soccer fan!) - All Arsenal soccer fans should read this book by Nick Hornby. It shows his obsessions for Arsenal with a fine sense of homour and wit. It is filled with RAW honesty which will definately increase the male hormones of the British working class-soccer fans. Hornby also shows his passion for the ups and downs of the typical fan of Arsenal. His emotional outbursts are extreme (to say the least) and would leave the reader laughing on the floor. A MUST read! 3 stars (Not bad, but never engaged me) - I like Nick Hornby and I'm an Arsenal fan, so I should have loved this book...but I didn't. Maybe I'm just not a fan of memoirs, or maybe a memoirist has to have a more interesting life than Hornby's, but I was just never caught up in this book. I was never wondering what was going to happen, never wondering how things were going to work out. If I hadn't been an Arsenal fan, I probably would have put this down one day and never picked it up again, not because it's bad but because it's forgettable. It just meanders from one random, wry musing to another. A word of warning: if you don't know anything about English soccer, you might have a hard time following this book. Do words like "Anfield" and "Gazza" ring any bells? If not, you're not part of the target audience, and it could be tough going. 5 stars (Oi! A Confessional of Passion and Frenzy by Hornby) - FEVER PITCH is basically a tribute to English football. Hornby (as a real-life Arsenal fan) has a unique talent here in weaving a story out of autobiographical moments with a slight narrative where the glory and obsessive nature of football is eeked out on every page. Within this you can quickly deduce that the thing always and forever on a football fan's mind is HIS fixture list and everything else (friends, family, love and moments) is second best. Each year, each month, each season of the narrator's life can be calculated and described by footballing m...

Great Soccer Drills - The Baffled Parent-s Guide

5 stars (Comprehensive, not just drills) - As a great follow-on to the original "Baffled Parent" beginner book from Bobby Clark, this one is much more than just practice games. It contains the type of wisdom you will hear in the USSF "D" and NCSAA Regional Diploma courses, so that the novice coach has more to go on than simply doing some game because it's in the book. It should help him/her to structure practices that make the players think, keep them active, and work towards a theme. It goes beyond telling them not to do the three "L"s (laps, lines, lectures) and gives them some tools so they know what they should do instead. I'm buying 150 of them for the coaches in our rec program. Also recommend the McAvoy and Luxbacher books. 5 stars (Great stuff!) - Don't let the title fool you. This is a great book for coaches who want to have fun at their practices and games that teach skills. Use the games at the beginning of practice and the kids will have fun, pay attention and improve. ...

Soccer for Dummies

5 stars (Great intro) - This is a book, especially for parents who are trying to figure out the game and people who'd like to learn more about it. 1 stars (A complete waste of time) - This is the first time I have reviewed a book for Amazon. I am doing this because I consider this book to be 100% garbage. If you are looking for a book full of annoying cross references (i.e. see page 118; see page 73) and for a book which repeats the same quotes or phrases in different chapters (was there really no editor?) BUY THIS BOOK. Also, if you are looking for cheap tid-bits and trivia about the US women's soccer team (was it really necessary to write three times about one female ripping her shirt off after a goal?) BUT THIS BOOK. If you want to have a general overview about the rules of Soccer but want nothing of strategy, technique, training, then BUY THIS BOOK. (or why not just go to the FIFA website and download the same rules which make up 50% of this book) But if you want to learn how to play or coach soccer, forget it. This book is a COMPLETE waste of time. 5 stars (Excellent intro for newcomers; solid content for veterans) - Carries on the excellent tradition of the "for dummies" books: offers solid content and information for veteran soccer afficionados while organized as a well-written, well rounded introduction for the novice. Gives comprehensive overviews about all aspects of the game -- rules, strategies, the world of professional soccer (the leagues, tournaments, events), as well as an excellent history of the game and its development. It's refreshing to see a book for newcomers that doesn't strip things down - there is a wealth of well-researched information here that is useful for the experienced fan or participant. ...

I would recommend all soccer players read this book. 5 stars (review for playing out of yourr mind) - Playing out of your really teaches you to do just that.

This book is great for strikers, defenders, goalkeepers, as well as other sports all you have to do is change over the soccer terms to what ever sport your appllying it to.

Football for Dummies- Second Edition

4 stars (Good But Still Doesn't Answer Why The Ball Isn't Round...) - And if it isn't round, why is it called a "ball"? Maybe it's been false advertising all these years. Maybe there really IS no such sport as footBALL. Maybe America's favorite weekend sport should be called "footoblong". There, I feel better now. This book starts with the most basic of basics and explains the hows and whys of football at a pace where even the most calculus-poisoned of intellectuals can soon know as much about the sport as any slack-jawed jock. Offense, defense, flags on the field, third and long, shotgun passes, sacks, conferences, pre and post season play, illegal but funny clothesline tackles, and why it's called a 'gridiron'. It's all here. Begin at one end of this user-courteous how-to tome and proceed to the other and by the time you get there you'll be ready to work on your beer belly in your weekend easy chair, bottle of brewski to your right, bag o'chips on your left, remote in your lap, kids locked in the car till halftime. This book can help anyone, newcomer to the sport or lifelong fanatic, pick up some new information on why it's so much fun to watch two teams of glandular cases with necks the size of tree trunks smash into each other in pursuit of a little pigskin ball...I mean "oblong". 3 stars (Mediocre guide...) - I am an avid football fan and I love to learn new material about the game everyday. I bought this book because I thought it would be a good supplement to the game. I was disappointed. The book itself is not very detailed. It should have been more accurate in depicting game plays and its players. Howie Long played defense in the NFL and I found it ammusing how the book was very defense oriented. Sometimes, the book was too "silly" and not informative enough. However, I found some chapters like the ones about the quarterback and the college teams interesting to read. 4 stars (not perfect, but it's all right) - I am not american. I have allways enyo...
