Simply not good enough. Ice skating players on the match engine and terrible goalkeepers kill all immersion, and the gameplay is a weird mix of over the top simulation about every aspect of football imaginable, combined with the players on the pitch utterly ignoring everything you do.

This is akin to using a spreadsheet that doesn't work - throroughly unenjoyable. Football Manager lost the magic a long time ago, and this edition doesn't bring it back. It needs a complete rework from the ground up at this point.

I agree it's so predictable at times I've noticed on every version since 2013 no matter how good you form or what your formation or game plan you, will always play a side in the bottom 4 and be two nil down after 10 mins if you are very lucky you can salvage a draw but it involves touch line shouts changing your setup i.e. Counter attacking etc you will lose 80% of the time no matter what you do, fix the damn game engine it's unbalanced when the computer defends its mostly successful when you try and do it your 3-0 down after ten mins, it's far to unbalanced going attacking against anyone will guarantee you a defeat unless your 5-0 up which rarely happens. You will always concede a penalty when your dominating a game but 1-0 up it's so frustrating because you will go on to lose the game.😡😡😡😡😡

He is entitled to his POV. if he wants a game that is graphically pleasing, then there is prerogative. Name calling makes you look very poor. Then again referring to someone as a kid while writing like one is hardly an indictment.

Oh so you are a poor manager...
The 3D match enginge is irrelevant. If you played in 2d classic you would get the same results.
The 3D match enginge just tries to show you what is happening but this ain't fifa.

honestly, people like you are just a cancer, and also moroic.
Still played 20 hours thought i see ?

Again, fking idiot over here.

Bye kid, I assume you are one.
