### 4/5 — Amazing but….

*2022-05-09, version 2.0.7*

This game is absolutely amazing but the problem is that when I make a new stadium or upgrade it’s quite long and plus it doesn’t work.

### 2/5 — It’s pathetic

*2020-02-01, version 2.0.7*

Good you kept it up. But it’s poor about the game. Matches and that you can only play phone view. 19 got better. And is the best in my opinion. As of the matches. The latest one is just annoying. 19 8/10
18 6/10
20 7/10

### 3/5 — Injuries and Fitness annoying

*2019-10-16, version 2.0.7*

This could be really good, but the injuries and fitness is ridiculous, especially as all other teams seem to not have it unless you take control

### 3/5 — Legal, mas pode melhorar

*2019-06-04*

É o estilo de jogo que eu estava procurando, mas tem muita coisa que pode melhorar. Aprender mais com o antigo CM.

### 2/5 — Stuck on 7th June 2019

*2019-05-17, version 2.0.7*

The game is good, easy enough to play and very addictive with the right sort of frustration. 
However after completing my first season I hit a snag with me unable to proceed any further than 7th June 2019, it just freezes. Maybe it’s my iPad being slow (however it’s not that old and even it was shouldn’t be an excuse for not loading). CSD19 need to sort it out as I won’t be the only one in this situation

### 3/5 — Football director

*2019-04-29, version 2.0.7*

Good game reminds me of champ manager could be abut more detailed

### 3/5 — Potential but with flaws

*2019-02-27, version 2.0.7*

Quite a good game for passing a little time, pretty addictive but there seems to be a huge issue with your team having players sent off and getting cards. The wage system is also fairly awkward as anytime you try to sign a player, regardless of age, performance or playing time the player will always want a wage increase which makes it incredibly difficult to keep to a wage limit.

### 4/5 — Bien fait

*2019-02-26*

Bon jeu dans l'ensemble 
Bonne prise en main 
En attente de nouveautés pour pimenter le jeu qui reste redondant

### 3/5 — Addictive but pushy

*2019-01-25, version 2.0.7*

Fun game, however every second conversation is trying to get you to spend money. Would be fine if the game gave you enough reasonable free credits along the way:

- You get 100 free coins for a win, or just 500 if you reach season goals.
- Meanwhile it’ll cost you 2500 coins to simply replenish your squad after a couple of games.
- And 30 bucks to get the top licence, there’s plenty of world class PS4 games that cost less. 

Why not just charge 10 upfront (e.g FM19) and leave us alone to play?

### 3/5 — Great till you get an news item

*2019-01-24, version 2.0.7*

Massive bug in the game the game is great but as soon as you get a press release it’s impossible to get rid of the screen no matter how many times you click off it on the iPad Pro 11inch

### 4/5 — Good manager game

*2018-12-16*

Great game to waste some time ur choices do make a difference to results just takes a while to earn rep for better teams.

### 2/5 — Lost money

*2018-12-14, version 2.0.7*

I payed for the UEFA A licence And it hasn’t gone through but my money has plz respond.

### 2/5 — Potential

*2018-12-12, version 2.0.7*

This could be such a good game, real shame you can’t do anything decent without coins, which of course you have to pay for, for any real benefit.  Therefore this game is not free.  Getting fed up.

### 3/5 — 3 проблемы

*2018-11-07*

Собственная игра-жир!спору нет.все нравится,что-то похожее на действительно около футбольную и футбольную жизнь и деятельность,НО:
1.Это ебучий донат!без вложения реальных денег в этой игре практически делать нечего.Уважаемые разработчики сделайте хотя бы два пути:игрок пусть сам решает вкладывать ему деньги в игру или же развиваться самому(сделайте этот вариант!!!пусть он будет долгим,но сделайте!!!)
2.Не продуманная система финансирования клуба.
Сделайте какие-то премиальные клубу за занятые места,как это и должно быть,потому что баланс уходит только в минус-дайте вариант заработать финансы для клуба,а не только за монеты покупать.
3.Собственно монеты! Так же,дайте возможность зарабатывать монеты,а не только покупать их или смотреть рекламу.пропадает интерес весь,когда понимаешь что ты не сможешь играть в МОБИЛЬНУЮ ИГРУ не вложив в неё реальных денег.

### 1/5 — Pay to Play

*2022-12-03*

All of the CSD games are built as a pay-to-play game. Can’t progress with job offers without paying or investing HUGE hours in the game. Injuries stack up in an unrealistic manner, pay with points.

Greedy developers.

### 1/5 — About the game

*2021-01-02, version 2.0.7*

The game is too hard, I can’t get past 51 level

### 1/5 — Décourageant

*2020-04-30*

Il fait partie des jeux où il faut absolument payer pour apprécier. Ou alors tu regardes 200 vidéos de 30 secondes et tu fais 3 matchs ou t’es même pas sûr que ça soit rentable. Le jeu est pas mal pensé à côté de ça malgré un français moyen mais c’est anecdotique. A éviter si c’est pour vouloir avancer sans payer

### 1/5 — Das Spiel

*2019-11-25*

Ein sehr cooles Spiel schön gestaltet da darf man weiter nicht meckern aber...
Die Preise von den Lizensen sind ja sowas von Frech, die Münzen auch überteuert, da zahle ich noch lieber 10 euro für FM20 und habe dann auch noch die originellen Ligen +Mannschaften
Ihr krieg abgesehen davon das es an sich ganz lustig ist doch nur eine One Star bemerkung

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2019-10-02, version 2.0.7*

1 star, very poor game, far too much time wasted reading silly emails, constantly in debt at a small club, can’t sign players, contract offers being blocked by board cause you’ve no funds? Prompted to upgrade this coach that coach & you can’t unless you have funds.  the whole thing is geared up to get you to buy coins.  Waste of a night playing it!!

### 1/5 — Good but dodgy

*2019-05-27, version 2.0.7*

Went and got promoted with Woking thought I would sign a new contract with another club Wimbledon but found out need to spend 2:99 what a load of bs just charge for the game as a whole because just cannot enjoy it other wise.

### 1/5 — Deleted in minutes

*2019-02-10, version 2.0.7*

Created an avatar, approach to manage a decent team only to be told you want £20 from me to do a "coaching badge" 😂😂
On ya bike ya scamming swines 😂😂😂

### 1/5 — Игра супер но лицензия все перечеркивает

*2019-01-06*

Для того что бы перейти в более лучший клуб нужно покупать лицензию за реальные деньги какой смысл такой игры ???

### 1/5 — Плохо!!!

*2018-12-01*

В начале игры открывается газета и её не как не убрать. Я просто не понимаю что делать!!!

### 1/5 — Schwach einfach nur schwach!

*2018-10-05*

Hab ein Kauf getätigt aber die PES Coin nicht im Spiel bekommen!😡 
Was da los????

### 5/5 — Director of football 18

*2019-10-18, version 2.0.7*

Thank you so much for this game I managed Bromley and turned them to winning the premier league, various cup victories and just won champions league for first time I was offered the the Man City gig I turned them down and beating them 2026/fa cup final who needs to buy success my team consisted of free transfers and selling them £ 50 million

### 5/5 — Review

*2019-06-20, version 2.0.7*

Great game really challenging which I like 
Highly recommend to all fans

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2019-01-24, version 2.0.7*

It could do with a few tweaks to the transfer system but, overall a great game!

### 5/5 — Ed’s

*2018-10-19*

Когда будут обновления ......

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2018-09-20*

O jogo em si traz uma ideia muito boa, com variações muito legais, mas a ideia de só crescer se pagar é muito antiga, deveriam atualizar o jogo e dar a possibilidade de crescimento, mesmo que mais difícil, para quem não utilize dinheiro!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-08-18*

Well made fun easy to play game

### 5/5 — 👍🏼

*2018-08-09, version 2.0.7*

Great game. Love everything about it. Especially how you can creat your own club start at the lowest league and become premier league and champions league winner. Just one thing, I have a player who’s demanding over a million pounds a week to stay.
