i just completed 4 years in this game yesterday ...and i have learned lot about football in general after playing this game ...this game has helped me understand lots of things that people don't notice ..especially player recruitment..tactics ..i remember i had cup final game ..i was playing 3-4-2-1 ....and we were trailing 2-1 after 80 min mark ,..i had a striker who was doing well as sub ..so i subbed him on ..for my striker ...he made it 2-2 in 89 min ..game goes to extra time and my ACM scores winner lol ...i was so happy ..i had my heart in my mouth ....but that's the thrill u have as football manager in general
