Football Manager 2020

I've now been reviewing the Football Manager series for four consecutive years here on Wccftech. I gave 2017 8.5/10, 2018 I gave 9/10 and 2019 I gave 9.5/10. I've backed myself into a corner really, giving these slight score increases. This is a series that always refines itself and on occasion makes massive changes to certain areas.

Get past the overly familiar visuals and you’ll find more reasons to keep on managing.

FOOTBALL MANAGER 2020 has some big football boots to fill. Like an academy prospect who is dubbed as the long-term successor to a club’s legendary player, this year’s entry has the difficult task of following on from Football Manager 2019. The most in-depth game in the soccer management sim series, FM 19, is a tough act to follow and there have been murmurs that FM 20 is nothing more than glorifie...
