WC - We all love Football Manager, and that’s just scientific fact. It provides us with the means to live out all the fantasies we enact during beer-sodden games, watching our failure of a team lose catastrophically entirely because the manager couldn’t see the obvious – that they should/shouldn’t have brought on that striker, that certain players didn’t belong in certain positions or why in all that is holy did they elect to sit back on a one-nil lead with 86 minutes left. We rage at the players, and then we go home and show the virtual world how it should be done, meaning justice is restored and catharsis is achieved.
The Football Manager games continue to improve each year, but there are of course still additions the fans would like to see, both to improve the gameplay and available features. Here are five of the biggest additions or changes the series could use heading into next year.
Football Manager 2014 is this week’s best selling retail PC game in UK, while Divinity: Original Sin is still selling like hot-cakes on Steam.
