![]() The biggest of those is a somewhat revolutionary change in the match engine. FM22 has changed more than you might expect at first glance, through a series of subtle but highly impactful tweaks to how things work under the hood. I'll come back to that, but first let's backpedal a bit. An overview of some of the key new features in FM22. To both my immense joy and my not-insignificant anguish, playing FM22 makes me feel exactly like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Where does Football Manager 2022 come in? Well, this year more than any other year before it has truly captured the experience of modern football management at the very top of the game. So, like I said, best of both: favourite-team fantasy plus the pleasure of mending that which is fundamentally broken. At the same time Manchester United is a god awful mess of a club, and it brings me immeasurable joy to step into the breach every year and be the hero who comes and fixes it. I know the club inside out, I'm desperate for us to win and loathe to see City win the race for another five attacking midfielders ahead of us, and frankly I just like having all my dreams fulfilled. The reason I like Manchester United is because they straddle a bit of both.

Every year on Football Manager, I choose to manage Manchester United. Let's get the shameful business out of the way first. It's the most accurate, most joyfully compulsive entry yet. There is an extreme depth in the game and you can click around in the menus for several hours without even clicking onto the next day.Football Manager 2022 ramps up the emphasis on the modernness of today's game. Did I lose? Now I have to spend an hour on the transfer list to chase new players. But why sleep when I can play another match? After all, it's a derby. That is, a real time-waster where "just one more match" will constantly happen and all of a sudden it is in the middle of the night. It's Football Manager and the game is still what we've got over the last decade. Otherwise, this is exactly what we can expect from the series. Deadline day has also existed in previous games. Like the other things, it's a fun addition, but nothing that's a drastic change. ![]() The last change that Sports Interactive flags in this edition is a new deadline day system with new scouting characteristics and changed player values during the last transfer day. It may be a good tool to see what your club and your players need, but I found myself skipping this and only asking for summaries after a couple of times. ![]() Admittedly, you can turn this off completely, or get it once a week, every other week or otherwise. There are several things going on here, such as players to scout, new penalty shooters, training tips and more.
