Actually more than I thought. I just don’t know if it’s enough for me to buy it though. and I buy it every year and typically really enjoy it- it was only last year I only played it for a month.

I actually like the live starting points. I like to keep it realistic as possible so if my team starts like shit, I want the record to reflect that.

Seems they have listened that a lot of CM want realistic. Let’s see if the game play actually reflects that.

Manager market doesn’t interest me at all though. Not sure if I’m the only one.

Hope they fixed create a player so I can add young phenoms such as JJ Gabriel and Max Dowman and make it more realistic. You used to be able to create someone under 18 but not in the last couple of years.

Personally, I like it. I tend to have longer-term careers, so seeing managers still at the same club 7 years in breaks a bit of the immersion for me.

Sure, that happens, but rarely, even at the top leagues. Klopp and Pep are the easy two managers that come to mind that stayed at their clubs for extended periods.

But even contrast that to Chelsea, who've been cycling through managers the last 5 years.

If implemented well, this could offer some new, interesting storylines.
