We’ve had the annual release of FIFA 19, but as October becomes November, there is only one game that is on the minds of football fans, Football Manager!
The PC game gives players the opportunity to test their skills as a manager, in arguably the most in depth game available.
With over 147 playable divisions and 2,500 clubs at your fingertips, the game is one of the most played games on the market and returns for it’s 2019 edition very soon!
As ever gamers can expect some changes from last year’s edition, so in preparation for it’s November release, we have dug deep and found all the new features players can expect.
New Logo
Fans of the game will notice straight away that the logo has been given a brand new look, with new colours and font.
Very much like FIFA 19 and the Fantasy Premier League, FM2019 boasts bright vibrant colours. Purple/violet is very much the ‘in’ colour it seems, as you’ll see in our gallery.
New Skin
Although the game’s UI is very similar from last year, gamers will notice one major change in the colour.
It is unclear as to why they have chosen purple or if you will have the option to change it, but the decision has been received with mixed reviews.
Squad Rotation
If you have a player that is on his way back from injury or is in desperate need of some game experience, you can now make him available for a youth game for one match only.
This means you don’t have to knock his confidence by moving him to the squad indefinitely, making him available to your matchday squad straight after.
Loan Management
When negotiating with a club about one of your player’s loan move, you can now instruct them of his preferred position as well as his preferred role.
This means you have more control over your player’s loan, meaning he will make progress in the areas you would like him to.
Star Performers
Colour-code star ratings help managers easily pick out the star performers from the match easily.
Players with a 7.00 rating or higher are highlighted in differing shades of green.
Multiplayer Ease
Now it is easier than ever to switch between managers with a dropdown box option available on every single page of the game.
No more needing to find the correct page!
More Informative Assistant
Alongside recommendations about pitch size, your assistant will also offer advice on what players to drop and will recommend a replacement too.
You can obviously ignore their advice, but it’s nice to have it as an option.
Induction System There will be a new manager ‘induction’ system which will behave like a tutorial for any newcomers to help them get used to the gameplay and new features.The system will be there for everyone, meaning FM regulars can also use it to brush up on the new features too.
