Skill,
luck and the tactics
you employ will
ultimately decide your
fate in this year's
un-missable Football
Manager 2006 on PC and
Mac.
One
of the many
fan-inspired features
to make it into FM
2006 will be that, for
the first time,
managers will be able
to negotiate with
their board of
directors - not only
for a better contract
for themselves, but
also for improved
player wage budgets
and increased transfer
budgets or even
stadium expansion. Be
aware though, if you
push too hard and
don't reach the
heights that the board
specify, you'll soon
be looking for a new
job.
Half-time
team talks add the
ability to tell your
players individually
or collectively
exactly what you
thought of their first
half performance, via
the tactics screen.
Will you be able to
keep your players
motivated, or will you
cause a collapse in
the second half?
Another
welcome feature is the
ability to manage
players on a personal
level. Unhappy players
can cause huge morale
problems for the whole
squad and result in
bad performances, so
the new Player
Interaction feature
will help you to
manage your team more
closely.
A
completely revamped
training module
simplifies training
schedules and players'
training progress,
with your coaches
becoming far more
important members of
backroom staff. New
media items and
expansion of the media
module have been
implemented, including
but not limited to,
cup draw news and man
of the match news.
Want
to know how many
yellow cards the ref
looking after your
Saturday match has
given in the last few
matches? Now you can,
with referee profiles
and league tables,
which add an extra
element to tactics of
the game. Maybe hard
tackling is not a good
idea for this
Saturday's match!
Also
adding an extra
tactical element to FM
2006, the player
positions feature has
been taken one step
further. A player
position indicator
will not only show you
the best positions for
your player and where
to play on the pitch,
it will also show
player preferred moves
for those players in
your team. As well as
this, the Player
Positions display
format has been
upgraded, making it
easier for the manger
to pick the team.
With
all-new features,
vastly improved
gameplay and a
heritage of
unquestionable
quality, Football
Manager 2006 offers an
unrivalled management
simulation experience. |
