I think what FM2012 needs is a Kit maker thing lol. I dunno if im im the only one, but im tired of having the same away and 3rd kit year after year, so maybe at the end of every season you get to create the two like picking the colours and stuff.

Better gameplay is needed because really the gameplay is soooo reapititve it drives me bonkers so SI please make better gameplay.

Press conferences need to be worked so you should be able to have a go at the ref (Like SAF) and better questions like cmon this is rediculous ever conference so how will you be lining up? and the sames answers every time, ughh :(

Interviews. So say your managing Man Utd and Mourinho gets sacked from Real Madrid you go to an interview and it's kind of like the press conference the chairman asks you questions and stuff like that

What do you think?
LOVE IT! Maybe you could also change the style of the home shirt but not the colors just to keep the tradition (Real Madrid, White; Barca, Blue and Red; Milan, Black and Red; Arsenal, Red and White)!
I have got a few ideas about it too.
Firstly I think you should be able to give yourself (the manager) more of a character. What languages you speak, what clubs you have managed, maybe even if you are married or not.
As LFCYNWA34500 posted, the conferences should be made better. More questions, more answers. I often get the question if I am trying to buy a specific player even though I have made no offer or even looked in to buying that player. However, I think that if you want to buy a player you should be able to tell the media about that.
The tactics are good in the sense of set pieces but I think making specific plays would be really fun. For example if the goalie has a goal kick you could tell him to kick to a specific player and then you could tell that player to pass to someone else . This would be great in helping you develop the special style of play that you want. If you want to play like Barca with their triangles or like Tottenham with their fast wingers.
I also think you should be able to decide how much a shirt/ticket/merchandise costs depending on how much money you have. Even though raising the prices a lot wouldn't help, raising them a tiny bit would get you a bit more money.
Set pieces could also be worked on like where to exactly shoot the ball instead of just picking near post, far post etc. Plus how the players move when the corner, free kick, throw has been taken. For example you want a very tall person to score from a corner. You can decide that the person who takes the corner shoots at a specific place and then make the man who is going to head the ball run there.
I also think there should be some kind of youth academy (players 14 and younger) so that if you know you have a big talent on the way, you could train him harder and he will get better.

I don't really see how adding more information about you as a manager will add something to this game.
It is already possible to tell the media if you want to buy a player (Go to the players profile and clik interaction -> talk to press)
It would be very complex to add such tactics to the game, as with too many options for tactics, people would have a very hard time to find a good tactic.
The merchandise/ticket/shirt costs are probably already optimised by the game to give a maximum return, so there is no need to be able to change these. Additionally, I do not think that managers should be able to change this as this is not the job of the manager at all.
You are already able to select how the players move when a corner or free kick has been taken. You should go to the tactics screen, then click on "Formation" and change it to "Corner takers". From that window you can click "Edit Set Piece Instructions" which guides you to make a corner tactic :)
However, I do agree with what you say about the Youth Academy! I hate it how some regens show up at their 21st or something, not giving them the chance to debut at an earlier age or for you to shape them to your tactics.. Maybe to reduce the size of the database they could only show your team's and maybe your feeder club's youth academies, while all the other players appear at their 14th. (Not 7 years later!)
Good Feedback!
Especially the things about the Youth Academy.
Hello, it would be nice if it were possible to lead U-19 selection in the championship
