### 3/5 — Lazy developers

*2023-08-22*

Fm23 on pc already have updated transfers, on mobile they are either lazy or dont care so they wont do update. Game would be so much better if they did transfers updates.

### 5/5 — Where’s the Chinese?

*2023-08-11*

This game has a certain popularity in China, quite a lot of Chinese people are playing this game

### 4/5 — Transfer change

*2023-08-08*

This game is very good and worth it if you really like football but I am just going to say the areas they need to improve just because it’s coming to be a problem now. They need to change the transfer value of the players for example when I tried to sign caicedo given the circumstances that Brighton got relegated on my save they wanted 98 millions pibes even tho his value was 25 millions pounds

### 3/5 — Predictable computer and injury simulator

*2023-08-08*

Football manager gets a lot right. Well structured and a manageable amount of phone options. It’s in game realism leaves a lot to be desired and should be updated beyond the old school engine it is running on. Injury, penalty, and other events are predictable and pedestrian.

### 5/5 — Unable to use a team

*2023-08-01*

For some reason the game doesn’t let me use Germany when I pick 2 teams. What’s up with that? The first time I downloaded the game it would let me after a few app updates I was unable to. It looks weird now because I’m playing with Düsseldorf (Germany) and when I go find there national team I have to choose a team like Spain. Doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. Please fix this?

### 5/5 — Best Quick Footy Manager

*2023-07-16*

I’ve been playing this since it’s beginning. The presentation and features are ideal for mobile play sessions. And even with FM Touch being available with Apple Arcade, I still come back to Mobile for its quick simplicity. 

FMM runs smooth on my old iPhone X, doesn’t overheat it like FMT does, and loads so fast. I highly recommend having the mobile version if you like managing on the go, while waiting for meetings to start, in between classes, or during those bathroom breaks. 

I hope FMM stays a staple of the franchise as it was my gateway into FM, and consistently my favorite mobile game. I’ve got FM, FMT on Switch and iOS devices, but I keep coming back to mobile because it’s always with me and a faster, smoother experience. Thanks SI team for another great year!

### 4/5 — The tactics destruction

*2023-07-07*

Each time an update comes up, my old tactics won’t work like every again and also, it’s frustrating and annoying., I hope you guys can find a way to fix that.. for example, when the fm23 came out, I was using vertical tikitaka. Everything was good, my team was playing to my satisfaction.. I loved the tactics and then the game got update for the first time since releasing the fm23, I updated mine.. went back to continue my adventure and boom. My tactics doesn’t work again.. even if I have the best players in the game in every position, the most horrible team will still beat me somehow.. vertical tiki taka was no longer an option in the game.. do something about this please and also the 433 formation.. can you please work on that? Playing three strikers in a 433 formation lol.. doesn’t make any sense.. I would like to see the real 433 in fm24 not just 4123.. there just a lot of problems in the gameplay, I hope you guys work on them and get it all fixed.. anyways keep up the good work

### 1/5 — Classic FM issues

*2023-06-05*

Fun game. But dumb things happen that no manager would ever allow to happen in real life.  Winning 2-1 in the 94th minute? Don’t worry, FM will make sure you’re entire team goes forward on your corner kick so you can give up that equalizing counter attack, even if you’re instructions say otherwise. 

Fix the bugs.

### 5/5 — Unable to coach some national teams

*2023-05-30*

I am Unable to coach some national teams like The Gambia and many more African and South American countries.

### 5/5 — Please Refund

*2023-04-28*

Please Rufund me my money back I didn’t mean to buy this game I meant to buy the Fm23 Touch game please refund!!
