Football Manager 2009

"Stop! Before all you goblin-fanciers blankly flick past this review in search of mystical worlds, take a minute to gaze in wonder at the surrounding screenshots. For years you have dismissed Football Manager as a glorified spreadsheet."

Champion elect or season of transition?

The next dimension?

"The biggest news of the night was that Football Manager� 2009 will see the match engine being brought into full 3D with motion captured animations for each player."

"For many people, especially in Europe and the Middle East, this past week was very important. Forget the release of all of those lame FPSs and so on, we are talking football here. The new football manager came out this week, and with all the new features announced in the last few months, fans have a valid reason to be excited for Football Manager 09."
