Use the following trick if you are struggling to score goals from open play. It will increase the number of goals scored from corners. Set your best corner taker to take your corners (a right-footed player from the left side, and left-footed players to take from the right side). Set your best header and tallest player (usually your CB) to challenge the goalkeeper. Also, set your second and third best header to attack the near and far post. Place players who have good long shot attributes to lurk outside the box, ensuring any clearances are directly to them, for them to have a shot on goal. Note: Make sure corners are always delivered into the six yard box.
Use the following trick if your team is very short on money and you want to spend more. Create another manger, preferably at the start of a season as there will be more money available. Have this manager join a club such as Man City, Chelsea, Real Madrid, etc. Then, search for the club you currently manage and sell unwanted players to the new manager for very high prices. This creates high transfer funds and also gets rid of any unwanted players.

Note: Use a text editor such as notepad to edit the "House" file in the "\Program Files\EA SPORTS\FIFA MANAGER 10\private_items" directory. This file contains the types of homes and how much they cost. Change one of the values to a negative number. For example:
Palace,Palais,Schloss,Palacio,Palazzo,Palac,-912000000,palace.bmp,2005
In the game, go to "Career" then "Private Life", then "House". Buy the house that was modified (for example, the Palace) and you will gain that amount of money instead of losing it.
