Premier Manager is back – bigger and better than ever. As the first football management game ever to be released across three, mega-popular platforms, the beautiful game has never been more compelling or accessible. Experience pressure, thrills and spills from behind the scenes and elevate your team to the top of the table. You’ll be requesting money to rebuild the squad from your chairman, issuing instructions to trainers and coaches, handling negotiations with player agents, massaging players’ egos and trying to fend off the more intrusive members of the press. Pick your team from one of the five major European leagues and take complete control of transfers, tactics, team management, squad rotation, finances and club development. Football management has NEVER been more fun. [Zoo Digital]

It isn't quite as good as we remember, but fans of the genre will be catered for with Premier Manager, but this just can't compete with "LMA" or "Total Manager."

It's devoid of any of the passion the sport thrives on, the text menus are so dense they make football hooligans look like geniuses and the control system used to navigate through them feels broken.

Just how little influence it's possible to have over your team's tactics doesn't even warrant discussion as the abysmal AI shown by players in the dire 2D matches throws all of your managerial hard work out of the window anyway. [Jan 2004, p.119]
