Football Manager 2021 makes some changes to the usual gameplay. For example, a newly appointed club manager will have to figure out tactics on his own. He will have to experiment to find the right approach. The protagonist can follow the example of the Spaniards, focusing on the tiki-taka style, use gegenpressing, or choose another approach known in the world of football.

In this case, you need to select a development style based on the performance and skills of the players. Another difference between FM21 and its predecessors is its more advanced AI. More factors now influence the correct choice of an athlete. The rating system has also been redesigned. At the end of each match, Football Manager 2021 will display detailed statistics about the progress of the game.

Thanks to the new option, the user will find out whether he managed to use the players’ potential to the maximum. These innovations will help better train all team members: goalkeepers, centers and defenders. Training sessions that take place before the start of competitions are now also accompanied by detailed monthly reports. Among other things, they included a column by a specialist assessing the performance of the team and coach.

Information is displayed on maps and graphs. In addition, the title makes it possible to hold meetings to communicate with scouts and interact with agents. You can ask the latter if any of the members of other clubs are ready to join the protagonist. The salary system has also changed, so now athletes are less likely to go to other agents.
