Team Management

For Team Management you can swap players around etc.
Your Profile allows you to choose the lead profile, and to choose your favourite team for each profile. You can also see how many games you've played, your win % and your goals scored, although this doesn't include all modes (it doesn't include Ultimate Team).

Replay Theatre

Both online and offline saved replays and highlights are stored here. Press LB to change the storage device of videos, and press Y to upload favourites to www.easportsfootball.com.

Video Upload
Share your moments of glory—or shame—with the rest of the world by uploading your videos to EA SPORTS Football World.

To capture footage of your skills, pause the game and select INSTANT REPLAY. To set a keyframe, press D-Pad up, and press D-Pad left/D-Pad right to move it to your desired position (to delete a keyframe, press D-Pad down). Once you're happy, press Y to upload your video and share it with the Football World community.

Keyframes
Ensure you capture all the action with keyframes. These are individual sections within your video that you can treat differently to the rest of your footage. For instance, you can use a different camera, viewing angle, and speed so that, when you get to a key moment, you can zoom in on the action and capture your moment of glory in slow motion.

The Replay Theatre is where you can view all the videos that you have saved of in-match action. To save a video pause a game and do an instant replay, or at the end of a game go to match highlights, pick out the highlight you want to save and, after getting all the cameras and slow motion parts right (using the keyframes feature), save it.

You can view your video by pressing A, delete by pressing X, upload to http://www.ea.com/soccer (assuming you have XBox Live Gold) by pressing Y or change the storage device by pressing LB.

Custom Music & Chants

Personalize your sounds by importing your own audio or customizing the EA SPORTS Trax. To upload personal audio tracks, from the main menu select CUSTOMISE > CUSTOM MUSIC & CHANTS to determine which game mode's audio you want to adjust. Select a game event and then choose the corresponding playlist.
