If I had a pound for every time I’ve seen someone complain about the outcome of a match to be rebutted with the words “it’s your tactics” I’d be a rich man.
From great introductory tutorials each time you start a game to improving the clarity of the information fed back to you so as to allow you to better understand where things might be going wrong. If there’s one thing SI Games has put an increased focus on in recent years, it is making FM far more accessible. Let’s say, then, that I’ve seen a lot of change over the years and whilst some versions have felt overly obtuse in its approach, that criticism cannot be levelled at Football Manager 2022. Missing out on getting that final promotion still grates and though we have long parted ways virtually I keep as close an eye as I can on their real-life performances - mid-table mediocrity if you’re curious. I was semi-successful, managing to get them into the Superettan, one below the top tier, the Allsvenskan. I ended up there because I used a random team generator but stayed because I was determined to lift them out of obscurity. For me that team was Enskede IK which is are currently a 4th tier Swedish football club south of Stockholm. There are countless stories of people who have managed some obscure club in some lesser known league around the world and taken them to heart so much they can’t help but start to care in real life. Whilst questions about my sanity are, perhaps, warranted, what keeps me coming back each year is that somehow, amongst all the stats, numbers and, in some versions, impenetrable match engines, Sports Interactive manages to make you care about your virtual club.
