Visually, Football Manager is not going to blow you away. It feels unintuitive and is an unnecessary hindrance. This means you will end up starting players with a lower condition than you would like. While this sounds ok, it doesn’t give you the exact number. A full green heart means the condition is between 90-100%. Whereas before you would see their condition represented by a percentage, now it is a heart. The biggest offender is how a player’s condition is indicated. Disappointingly, not all UI changes are positive. It does take a bit of getting used to as a returning player. Now, during the course of the match, you will see how many goals you’re expected to score, your assistant’s suggestions pop up in a large box in the middle of the screen and your line up is along the bottom. One of the biggest changes is the matchday UI and how the game presents information to you. They still look like themselves but ever so slightly different. If you’ve played a Football Manager game before, it feels like returning to an old friend who’s had a facelift. I can still tell you my starting XI from Football Manager 2013 as the team who went on to dominate English and European Football. The bizarre, asymmetric formations, the regens (game created youth players when they’ve run out of real people) and the individual matches are all experiences that stick with you. There is nothing as rewarding as taking a semi-professional team from the dregs of non-league football to Premier League and European glory. You essentially get to write your own footballing story and it is one of the series’ biggest strengths. It immerses you in the world of football unlike any game on the market. It offers football fans the ability not just to manage your favourite club, but any club you desire. Football Manager 2021 is the latest manager simulator in a series that started back in 1992 as Championship Manager.
