Easy goals:
If you are defending or playing the ball around the midfield, get the ball from your 
opponents. Give the ball to a player whose shooting precision and power is over 
60 and you may train them for better results (for example, Beckham, Figo, 
Ronaldo, Van Nistelrooy, etc.). Run to the half of your opponents. You may see a 
lot of space in front of you. Then, press Shoot. Just before the meter gets red, 
release it. The goalie will stand too far from his goal and the ball may go in. You 
have about a 50% chance that your player will score from way out.

Easy win:
Choose a side to play on. Then, during gameplay, press Start and choose "Select 
Sides". Move your controller under the opponent's side and resume gameplay. 
Then, score as many goals as desired (while under the opponent's side), then just 
switch back to your side again. This way you will have a big point lead, depending 
on how many goals you scored. This trick also works better when you switch back 
to your side near the end of the second half.

Getting good players:
Go to the options menu then to "Player Swaps". Swap all the good players desired 
onto the team you want to play as, then save that as a squad. Call it whatever 
desired. Then go to "New Season" and select "Current Squads" and play your 
team. This is useful for a third division team. This team now has all the good 
players.

Buying players:
If you want to buy a player, bid for them about 1 or 2 million above the asking 
price. This ensures you of signing that player. Players that are worth buying 
include:

Thierry Henry
Ronaldinho 
David Beckham
Ronaldo (either)
Tim Howard
Roberto Carlos
Alexandre Del Piero 
David Bellion
Ruud Van Nistelrooy
Hernan Crespo 

In the first year, it is almost impossible (unless you bid over 5 million above the 
asking price) to buy Thiery Henry, David Becham, Ronaldo, and Del Piero.

When you have won a game and a player sent off from the team you are 
controlling, you will see the ball move and go into a goal by itself.
