One of the new features injected into Football manager 2023 this is a more detailed player recruitment system. Players will be given many options and inputs regarding the club’s vision or mission for the future. So obviously, existing inputs and options can be carefully considered before buying different players.

If you deal with young players who are still easy to educate, it’s not a problem. The problem is that players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Erling Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne are very hard to beat with simple words of motivation. Other than that, the skill or level of patience of the players in this game also seems excessive.

So, you have to remember that your choice of words, motivation and warnings to players will lead them into situations that are not necessarily comfortable. What annoys me the most is, of course, their anger and childishness that leads to demands transfer list i.e. sales. This is one of the elements that writers dislike the most in several titles Football manager lately.

You can clearly see how fans rate the club and players you manage. There is also a hierarchical division of fans, including fanatical or hardline fans, conventional fans, and “peaceful” or family fans. Good, The votes of fans in the media and on the board of directors count.

Public pressure like this can actually bring about two equally strong sides. On the one hand, the club and the players you train will obviously be close at hand when the fans love you at the club. However, on the other hand, it’s also very easy for us to get kicked when the club’s conditions vary and are not ideal in the eyes of the fans.

However, regardless of whether the news is good or not, everything still seems minimal and is covered by the main elements that are still in line with the previous title. Like this, Football manager 2023 is a new simulation game with identical gameplay style and mechanics to previous titles.
