Football Manager 2020

Still addictively enormous, but more open to newcomers than ever, FM 2020 is a brilliant update to a brilliant series.

Another superb entry that feels tailor-made for the series' most dedicated players.

Football Manager 2020 continues the series' winning formula, but there's still plenty of aspects that need work alongside overpowered tactics and methods to win games.

Football Manager 2020 is the purest, most engrossing and also the most accessible football management game yet and marks yet another high point for the series. From improved accessibility and usability to improved AI and long-term gameplay functions in new features like the development centre & club vision, this is a game that takes a longer more realistic look at the beautiful game than any before it. Slight issues still prevail, but this is the closest to perfect the series has ever been.

Football Manager is still the ultimate football simulation series, and this latest addition makes enough positive changes to keep the gameplay fresh, and improve on some of the minor frustrations of previous entries. With a better UI, enhanced match engine, and some high-quality decisions around player motivations, it is easier than ever to get sucked into hundreds of hours of addictive gameplay. Football Manager 2020 is the perfect game for spending long days in quarantine, as the time will fly by.

The changes they have added to the game have made it much more enjoyable, and much clearer to play as a manager. The expectations have been set in stone for you with the club vision. You have gained a clearer view of your younger players with the youth development screen, and as always, the game has improved over the last installment. With the current winter update out as well, I would recommend getting this game now and enjoying your management career, especially if you get it with together with a friend.

Can you recommend Football Manager 2020? If you can bring a lot of time and like to click through menus and turn every little screw as a tactical fox, with Segas Manager Games you have a modern piece of software in hand to let several weeks go by. Above all, the new board features motivate over several seasons, because it is not just the goal to make the climb or to win the championship. Football is the most beautiful thing in the world, but it's not always just black or white. And if a piece of software has recognized this and wants to offer us a complex simulation, then probably the Football Manager 2020.

It won't convert a casual fan of the sport into a rabid follower of the series, but it is one that will take anyone who wanted to live the fantasy of managing a football club and give them every opportunity to find their heart's content.

You may notice that this review of Football Manager 2020 is coming rather late.

We are facing a new installment of the already emblematic and veteran sports management saga developed by Sports Interactive, and it does not disappoint. Without being a revolution in any section, it is certainly an evolution in many of them. Some defects from previous years continue to drag, such as absurd situations in the match engine, the null evolution in the management of set pieces, and, as a minor problem, for having an easy solution, team and player licenses. These defects do not tarnish what is an outstanding product and that is still highly recommended for fans of this type of game.
