    Never really got Football Manager, what’s the appeal and attraction? I see it always gets high scores in reviews, I know it’s a sim but is that the only appeal?

    The high sales could likely be a combination of this being the year of a World Cup (held every 4 years) and the franchise growth – as every yearly title in the series gains more popularity with each installments while retaining it’s usual high scores.

    @Abject Because Football is really popular in UK and also the World Cup acollades.
    The game recreats a really good manager simulator. Even some real Football Teams use this game for making feedback.
