Football Manager 2022 is yet another improvement on the long-running series, one that brings the beautiful game to life more than ever before and recreates both the small and large moments that make the sport so engaging. The options are near limitless, and the game puts even more at your fingertips, from the Data Hub to improved staff meetings, all adding onto a revamped match engine. This is the closest Sports Interactive has come to perfection, with only small elements feeling aged and needing polishing.
All said and done though, Football Manager 2022 is unsurprisingly excellent.

Best fm ever. The first squad of the most important teams are now with face picture, finally its not necessary facepacks. Good job with the new department of statistics analysis

How does one innovate in what is already the best sports management simulator of this generation? Sports Interactive knows the answer: with gradual improvements and small adjustments. This translates in the introduction of the Data Center, a welcomed addition for stats enthusiasts. But Football Manager 2022 doesn't reinvent the wheel, because it doesn't have to. It's a franchise that gets deeper and deeper for players who want a true simulation, and more and more accessible for newcomers.
Football Manager 2022 manages to successfully represent the complexity of soccer, but at the same time, it offers an accessible experience that anyone can enjoy. Hardcore fans will be thankful for all the additions, and newcomers will feel welcomed.
Football Manager 2022 marks a slow transition to a better game, and the third and final version next year promises to be even more exciting. This is is as good as always, but the new elements are less than we would have liked.
There's certainly no debate about whether Football Manager 2022 is worth the money, that's self-evident for a game that offers thousands of hours of gameplay, but you won't be missing out majorly if you continue with FM 2021.
Football Manager 2022 is a further step for the improvement of the series, which in terms of offer and managerial experience now seems saturated. The innovations compared to the previous edition are small and marginal, both in terms of content and improvements to the match engine.
The new animation engine on it's own makes this years version worth buying. The new engine allowing the players to make quicker decisions and re adjustments adds tremendous value in the flow of the game. Last years version FM21 in my eyes was the best installment in the series, but already now I can confidentiality say FM22 tops it.
This new animation engine on it's own have re flourished my love for the game! And with the new data hub sinking deep into a save became even more enjoyable as we all known numbers and stats are a gold mine!
For already experienced FM players this is a must get version of the game! Which says more then enough for other customers.

Futebol Manager is a classic that emerged from Elifoot, a basic game, simple, but very fun. FM is too overloaded with unnecessary information and details. They need to focus even only on more general and forceful aspects to impact the results and performance of a club, or at least create a game format that can reduce the amount of information and so much content, leaving this breadth available only to those interested. ..

I played every single game of the series since i remeber, and this is prolly the first time i am dissapointed. I let the game set on mostly default and started to looking after improvements. To my suprise all of the improvements were so minor, that i could barely even say if those chagned anything. In looking to besten the info feedback player is now bombarded with tousands of unimportant massages. Scouting is mostly lacking, like in the last title. The new Data submenu seems to just colletc the data from everyelse into one spot... which is kinda usefull but not really helpfull as expected. I have the feeling that geenpressing is still op tactic to anyone and every team, in opposite to the tiki-taka or possesion setups, which needs a lot of tweaking to work. Transfers are just unrealistic like in previous titles. I kept getting bids for 0zł in my Pogoń team for my youngster, while i needed to bet a large ammount of money for simply any player. Same issue with free transfers - players without a club are asking for a lot of money, yet thay barely played in last seasons, and player has zero to none negotiation capability. Press conferences or players talks are once again just useless part of the game, where you can simply go whole season clicking second option from the left nad barely ever something bad happens. To the engine, i feel that this side works this time slightly better for me and matches are now kinda competetive. Still getting stupid match ups with 1 to 30 and 1-2 or 1-1 scorelines.
I mean end of the day game is not terrible. Its still good old football manager in some spaces best menagerial game there is. As an old fan i will play it anyway. Though to be fair i can only give it solid 7.

Football manager used to be a great game. I have played Championship manager since "93", but the last 3 editions have been poor on what really **** difficulty. Despite vast improvements in transfers, the graphics etc etc, the ease level is so abusively easy, I don't bother playing anymore.
For example, I'll use my Corboa save so you can see what I mean. Won the third tier without dropping a point. Then won the segunda title by 12pts (at least i lost a few games). Then 4th in la liga and won the copa del rey. Then champions the next season, including beating barca 6-0 away (would never happen!) and got the to the copa del rey final and lost - I almost wanted to lose. After winning la liga again the next season with an average squad age of 21 I quit as I was bored.
Another example.....I got Norwich promoted (unbeaten), then finished 4th in the prem, then finsihed 3rd but won the league cup. The next season came 2nd, but won the FA Cup and Champions league. I then won every trophy available the next season from everything from the community shield, super cup through to the prem and champions league (7 in total). I'm not writing this to brag - its not fun!!
It just to be a challenge. This is absurd and after buying FM22 it seems its the same level of difficulty - a 6 year old could tear this up. Loads of Youtubers criticised the ease last year and they have done the same again. I won't be buying future editions until I see that is has been made a little more challenging.
I remember one game in my Norwich game that summed this up. Playing away at Man city in the FA cup quarter-final, 2-0 down after 60 mins and I still thought we would win - It was 3-2. I started to-realise I wanted to lose games and thus quit the game at the end of the season.

Just so much stuff that wastes your time. My team are annoying. The media is annoying. Other than managing your team and playing football, everything else is annoying. Waste of money at full price.
I absolutly dispise team meetings. DISPISE THEM. WHAT IDIOT PROGRAMMED THE INTERACTIONS!?
