CHOOSE YOUR CLUB. BUILD YOUR CAREER.

Take charge of an established top-flight club or begin deep in the lower leagues and attempt a long journey to the top.

Promotion, relegation and play-offs continuously reshape the football pyramid, while clubs controlled by the game develop their squads, transfer players, compete for trophies and move between divisions.

As the seasons pass, players develop, age and retire. New generations emerge, clubs rise and fall, and the football world around your career keeps changing.

BUILD AND MANAGE YOUR SQUAD

Every player uses a compact set of attributes designed to keep squad decisions quick and understandable.

Choose your active players and reserves, assign players to their best positions, select a formation and adjust your tactical approach. Fitness, age, injuries, suspensions and player development can all influence the choices you make throughout the season.

Train players between matches, rotate your squad and decide when your strongest team needs to be on the pitch.

MEET ROB, YOUR ASSISTANT

Rob helps you understand what is happening around your career.

Before matches, he can highlight patterns in the opposition and players worth watching. After matches, he reflects on what actually happened on the pitch, including where attacks developed, which players were most involved and how the match changed over time.

He also follows the wider story of your career, reacting to form, transfers, injuries, milestones and other important moments with his own observations and occasional sense of humour.

TRANSFERS AND FINANCES

Search the transfer market, make offers and sell players from your squad.

Your club operates within a financial system covering transfer fees, salaries, maintenance and income from league performance, cups, sponsorships, television rights and other sources.

Strong financial management gives you more freedom to improve your team, while poor decisions can restrict what you are able to do.

EXPERIENCE MATCHES YOUR WAY

Choose how closely you want to follow each match.

Fast Mode gives you the important information and result quickly while still leaving room for managerial decisions.

Full Mode lets you follow each half minute by minute through text-based match commentary, including goals, chances, midfield battles, cards, injuries and other key moments.

At half-time you can react to the match, adjust your approach, make substitutions and manage player stamina as the game develops.

SIMPLE OR COZY

Choose between two difficulty levels.

Simple includes the complete stamina, injury, suspension and financial systems and represents the intended challenge.

Cozy offers a more relaxed football management experience with fewer pressures and more room to simply enjoy building your team and progressing through your career.

CUSTOMIZE THE GAME DATABASE

The default database uses fictional club and player identities, but the built-in Database tools let you customize names and shape the football world the way you want.

Simply export the database to an .xlsx file, edit it on your computer and import it back into the game.

LOCAL MULTIPLAYER

Build your career alongside friends in the same football world.

Local Multiplayer supports up to 4 managers on one device, with each player taking control of their own club within the same chosen league.

BUILD A CAREER THAT KEEPS GOING

Simple Football League Manager is built around the long-term story of your club.

Fight for promotion, survive relegation battles, chase trophies, rebuild aging squads, develop new players and see how your decisions shape the club across season after season.
