Football Manager 2020 Reviews
Football Manager is still the ultimate football simulation series, and this latest addition makes enough positive changes to keep the gameplay fresh, and improve on some of the minor frustrations of previous entries. With a better UI, enhanced match engine, and some high-quality decisions around player motivations, it is easier than ever to get sucked into hundreds of hours of addictive gameplay. Football Manager 2020 is the perfect game for spending long days in quarantine, as the time will fly by.
The changes they have added to the game have made it much more enjoyable, and much clearer to play as a manager. The expectations have been set in stone for you with the club vision. You have gained a clearer view of your younger players with the youth development screen, and as always, the game has improved over the last installment. With the current winter update out as well, I would recommend getting this game now and enjoying your management career, especially if you get it with together with a friend.

Can you recommend Football Manager 2020? If you can bring a lot of time and like to click through menus and turn every little screw as a tactical fox, with Segas Manager Games you have a modern piece of software in hand to let several weeks go by. Above all, the new board features motivate over several seasons, because it is not just the goal to make the climb or to win the championship. Football is the most beautiful thing in the world, but it's not always just black or white. And if a piece of software has recognized this and wants to offer us a complex simulation, then probably the Football Manager 2020.

It won't convert a casual fan of the sport into a rabid follower of the series, but it is one that will take anyone who wanted to live the fantasy of managing a football club and give them every opportunity to find their heart's content.
You may notice that this review of Football Manager 2020 is coming rather late.
We are facing a new installment of the already emblematic and veteran sports management saga developed by Sports Interactive, and it does not disappoint. Without being a revolution in any section, it is certainly an evolution in many of them. Some defects from previous years continue to drag, such as absurd situations in the match engine, the null evolution in the management of set pieces, and, as a minor problem, for having an easy solution, team and player licenses. These defects do not tarnish what is an outstanding product and that is still highly recommended for fans of this type of game.

The best, deepest, yet still pretty open for newcomers entry in this well-known series in years.

For many years in a row, Football Manager remains the best sports manager game on the market. However, Football Manager 2020 doesn't really offer too many innovations and might feel lacking to some as a result.

Sports Interactive has made Football Manager new again, without breaking what already made it so delightful. It's more of the same, only newer.
In the end, I think you will struggle to find a better representation of the sport of soccer.
Football Manager 2020 has made the series more realistic. Also club tradition and vision system is very good.

Football Manager 2020 manages to improve upon last years outing in enough areas to justify an upgrade for owners for FM 2019 or before. However, I do feel it's getting closer to the point where a marquee feature will need to be introduced or an existing one improved dramatically such as the 3D match engine.
Football Manager 2020 is a pure gem with some great new features that clearly enhance the whole experience. It's far from perfect, but Sports Interactive has found great ways to welcome a larger audience in a game that is, again, not to miss if you're a fan of the franchise and/or a football lover.

Still addictively enormous, but more open to newcomers than ever, FM 2020 is a brilliant update to a brilliant series.
I am hugely enjoying & extremely addicted to Football Manager 2020 this year. I am not sure why in particular as I get every years release. I think its because I didn’t rack up a lot of hours on FM19 so I am now back with a vengeance with excitement more than ever. The new features make the game far better with the detailed information more at your finger tips, and with the matchday games becoming more and more realistic, its just another very solid playthrough. Football fans that enjoy management sims and that are dedicated to the series will continue to enjoy what Miles Jacobson & Sports Interactive have released this year. Are you ready to take the reins of one of Europe’s elite teams? Or are you willing to manage a lower league club in an attempt to bring them to the promised land? The decision is entirely yours. I am giving Football Manager 2020 ….drum roll please….. the Thumb Culture Platinum Award!
Football Manager 2020 introduces big changes that will drastically change long-term playthroughs, with some quality of life improvements as well.
Football Manager is the special dessert only for hardcore football gamers. But it is a pity that some bugs and problems remain unfixed for a really long time.

If you're a Football Manager addict, you'll play this game anyway; but if you're a newcomer Football Manager 2020 has plenty of tools to get you into the game. This is the best way to experience what it feels like to be at the sideline.
