Football Manager 2011

Football Manager 2011 is a release of the managerial line, where transfer negotiations and work with agents have been significantly reworked. Signing the right player is now more difficult: you have to take into account personal requirements, bonuses, the length of the contract and the mood of the player himself. An error in the negotiations leaves the club without reinforcements, and the time for negotiations is limited by the transfer window. The second important change is expanded work with people: conversations with players, promises of playing time and reaction to criticism affect the atmosphere in the team. The coach has to look for compromises, and not just put out the best in the rating. In addition, the game has become more detailed in the reports: scouts provide data in a convenient form, and match analytics help to understand where exactly the team is losing points. The interface has been improved, which is why long sessions are more comfortable than in previous parts. It is also worth noting that the game has a mode that allows you to connect to the unfinished career of another manager, which was an innovation for the series. Online saves and tables made it possible to compete with friends, not just the computer. For those who prefer live competition, this is a useful opportunity. We should also praise the speed of work: season processing is fast, and the interface does not interfere with focusing on decisions. As always, the game takes time: one career easily stretches over dozens of seasons. For fans of the genre, this kind of depth is exactly what they come here for.
