Description :
Enhancing the engine debuted with the and official 2006 world cup game, FIFA Soccer 07 includes enhanced ball and player collision physics and more player animations adding to the 16 trick moves and first touch ball reception introduced to the game engine with the previous games in the series. Players can choose between 2 and 10 minutes halves in three different game speeds and four different difficulty levels. 17 countries are included, along a "Rest of the World" for the best teams in championships left outside the game and international teams. Spain, England (with two), France, Germany and Italy also feature second divisions. Players can also create two clubs, customizing their badge, kits and home stadium, selecting players from anywhere in the game, along the starting budget in manager mode. The player creation tool remains mostly unchanged, with the ability to customize everything, from faces (with a complete set of options, from jaw width to eyebrow shape) to the appearance and playing abilities.
While the focus of this yearly update was on the game engine, the Manager mode was also enhanced: players now also improve their playing ability from being active members of the squad, forcing the player to choose between keeping his celebrated stars near retirement in the starting eleven, or give the benefits of the youth system a chance to shine. Another new feature, in what is now the primary mode of the series, is the ability to watch the game in a simplified text mode, with the ability to jump into action to turn the events still available. The points system was replaced by a less abstract currency model (with the ability to choose between Pounds, Euros or Dollars). Other game modes include Tournaments (including the creation of custom tournaments) and Challenges.
By completing challenges (similar to the Global Challenges mode in world cup 2006) the player can spend points in the Fanshop with items such as new teams, a special overhead camera, new balls from adidas (including all original World Cup balls from 1974 to 2002), stadiums, third kits and special celebrations for created players.
Finally, online gaming received a new mode: Interactive Leagues. These are online-only leagues based on the fixtures of their real counterparts (English Premier League, French Ligue 1, German Bundesliga and Mexican 1st division). Then, online players go head -to-head with their favourite teams with a victory counting one vote for their favourite team. Once the week is over, the team with more votes is declared the winner of the week, getting three points. The number of weekly matches a player can do in this mode is unlimited.

Cheats :
Hint: Easy goals:
If you have the ball and are outside the area but not on your half, you can check on the map how far the keeper is off his line. Normally he is about two meters. You can lob him easily if you get the power correct.
Hint: Easy unlockable points:
Advance through the game modes and select Tournament mode. Select any cup tournament, as they tend to be shorter. Select the highest rated team or replace a team in the tournament with a highly rated team from another league. Advance to Tournament Central and quick sim all the games until you have won the tournament. You will be awarded unlockable points to spend.
Hint: Easy money:
No matter what team you are in Manager mode, buy the best free agents in the transfer market. Sell them during the same transfer market window so you do not have to pay the high salary. Because they are free to you, once you sell them you can get the added millions to your bank account.
Hint: Preview unlockables:
Purchase unlockable items without saving your profile. After testing items, simply reload your profile to re-acquire the unlockable points. By using this technique you can unlock and test all the unlockables in the game.
Hint: Finding Giovanni Dos Santos:
You can find Giovanni Dos Santos in Barcelona's reserve list. Even though he is only 69 overall you can edit his stats and make him as good as Ronaldinho. You will then have two of the best midfielder's in the game.
Hint: Cheaper players:
This trick works in Manager mode when you are changing teams at the end of a season. At the end of the season when you are asked whether or not to renew certain players' contracts, choose not to renew the contracts of your favorite or best players (the ones you want on your new team). When you arrive at the new team and the transfer period starts, the players will be free agents, allowing you to transfer them without paying millions in fees and allowing you to re-negotiate the contract to fit your new team.
Hint: Easy win:
Play with the 3-4-3 combination. You will hardly lose any matches, even if you quicksim them.
When starting a new Manager mode, select Arsenal. Remove some of the players that you think will not play in your lineup. You will always succeed. Always refresh the contract with a salary much lower than he gets. Do not to go too low or the deal between you and the player will fail.

Although these players stats are low in season one, their player growth goes up to 90+ and will be some of the best players in the world after three or four seasons.
LB: Gareth Bale (Southhampton)In Manager mode, there is a very good player named Goeke who can be a very rare find. He is German and his overall is 99 from the third season. He also lasts the entire 15 years and stays at 99. If you get Theo Walcott and are lucky enough to have Goeke, you will have the two best strikers on the game who last to the end. However Walcott gets to 99 usually about Season 10. Although this is awhile to wait, he can still score from anywhere and is also quick.
