Stop being so stupid by having 'funny' balls, big heads and other pathetic things nobody wants. It's insulting to your user base and adds nothing to the game. I can just see Team Konami selecting to play with the 'candy sweat' ball, tears of laughter running down their face, falling off their chairs at the comedy genius they've created onscreen. And the stadium banners, oh the hilarity continues. 'Who ate all the pies', good one lads. Although that's probably better than other ones that say 'Go for the win'. Honestly, has anybody ever turned up at a football match with a banner saying that? Also, it's pointless having classic teams when the names are wrong and they look nothing like the person anyway. Does anybody ever use classic teams? What's the point?
Oh my dear God, who on earth is in charge of audio? Are you actually paying people to write and compose the 'music' in this game? It's the most obscure, ear splitting abomination I've ever heard, bordering on the hilarious. At least on 2011 there were a couple songs from Keane and Temper Trap that were acceptable, recognisable songs and everything else could be turned off. This year is horrific, there's even a song on there that halfway through some angry demonic spirit summoned from the dead starts shouting a la The Exorcist, like I've just walked into a Slipknot concert. Last year there was the classic tune 'Midnight mass, midnight mass, midnight mass', I mean what on earth is going on here, is it just me? Is there a Konami employee rocking out to these tunes thinking 'this is genius', and that we're going to be bobbing our heads refusing to start the match until our new favourite song has finished? The commentator one has been done to death, but then you haven't even tried to do anything with this. Get Guy Mowbray for commentary. There, I solved the commentary problem almost instantly. But don't have him read out that awful script that I pressume was written by some Konami execs 10 year old kid on 'bring your children to work' day or something.
Licences, just forget them Konami. Whatever you're paying for the UEFA licenses then dump it, could probably hire 20 new members of staff for the same price. Hire me, 6 animation/graphics artists, 6 testers, 6 sound/audio people and someone who specialises in product promotion and we are half way to nirvana.

, and the Milan and Ajax 80's etc. For that matter, every team that's ever won a World Cup.
