Things That I Love

 Footbal Manager
What is Football Manager?

Football Manager (also known as Worldwide Soccer Manager in North America from 2004 to
2008) is a series of football management simulation video games developed by British
developer Sports Interactive and published by Sega.

Unrivalled simulation gaming. You will experience the closest thing to being a real manager by
taking charge of the world’s greatest football teams and playing the beautiful game your way.
Football Manager is a living, breathing game world of unparalleled realism and achieves football
authenticity that other football games can only aspire to.

The professional world of football has been carefully modelled and recreated to empower you
with all the managerial power and tools to create your own football story and live out your
dreams. Buy the players you want. Set the tactics you favour. Lift the trophies you desire. Your
club, your way.
 When Did I Started to Play?

It happens 2 years ago in January 2020 in the middle of the first pandemic. I see a lot of my
friend on the internet talking about Sports Interactive (Football Manager Developer) giving
information that Football Manager can be downloaded for free, And without thinking i
immediately downloaded it and play it. My first experience playing Football Manager is
complicated, but it’s quite interesting.
This is what it looks like
 Why Football Manager is So Addictive?

Because the game is very realistic. You can't control a player like, say Havertz, to perform
rabonas game in game out as is the case for other games where you play the match, like FIFA or
PES. But in FM, your players will play the match and how they play depends on you.

You get to attend press conferences, interact with the board when you want something,
personally praise/ criticize players for their performances, give team talks. You devise the
training routines for the team as a whole or targeted towards a particular player. And all these
factors (and many others) lead to a player brimming with confidence or sulking, which
ultimately will be a part of the result of your next match.

Every single thing you do wrong will contribute to your club's overall performance. This makes
winning trophies in FM slightly harder than FIFA or PES. And the amount of satisfaction you
get when everything goes right makes the game great. Believe me when I say that you'll feel
proud if you give a half time team talk when you're losing 2-0 and your talk inspires the player
to win the game 3-2 or 4-2 at full time.
THANK YOU!
