You also can’t access two career modes without premium which is dumb. Besides that the game is actually pretty good. ### 3/5 — A couple of issues and a bug *2026-08-08, version 3.0.0* I want to start off by saying that this game is very fun and addicting. It is well made, and I enjoy playing it. However, I encountered a bug. Whenever I play for my national team, the stat points for good performances in matches don’t go through. The stat points from all the club matches work just fine, but for some reason, the stat points from matches for the national team don’t get counted. As for the other issues, the stamina system is really stupid, I mean, why would you want to stop people from playing your game? In addition to that, the “Free Hit” training minigame is too difficult, as it is hard to get the ball around the 2 closer training mannequins. Also, the penalty training minigame is just stupid. It’s entirely based on luck, because the ai just decides whether or not to go right to where you shoot. Other than that, this is an amazing game. ### 3/5 — I don’t understand *2026-08-01, version 3.0.0* A lot of things don’t make sense. I join a team that just won the ucl and we lose to a tier 4 team 1-3 when I didn’t even make mistakes. I win the golden boot, as a defender. And there is no extra time of penalties and the winner is diecided by a coin toss. ### 4/5 — Unfinished but good *2026-07-28* It’s definitely a good game but it feels very unfinished. You need to add actual other players into the game so that a defender doesn’t win golden boot and most assists and every other trophy. Also you should add more individual trophies into the glory bar, to make the game more. Also it says the other team scores but they don’t? That also happens with my team sometimes too. ### 3/5 — fun but annoying *2026-07-24, version 3.0.0* I’m having a lot of fun with this game, but it’s getting annoying with my rolls sometimes. I keep getting the scenario where I roll two 99s in a row, and then a 94 directly after. It is tanking my player rating. Please fix the rolls to make it more random and to stop giving the same numbers! Other than that, having fun! ### 4/5 — patch stamina *2026-07-23, version 3.0.0* i love this game its just stamina goes to quickly so i can hardly play games please just patch that and it will be really good ### 3/5 — Could be better *2026-07-06, version 2.0.0* Would be a great game but its impossible to keep your stamina at a reasonable level without paying real money, watching a minute long ad or skipping a match ### 4/5 — Problem *2026-07-05, version 2.0.0* There is another problem. The minimum. The required overall for mexico nationa team should be below 78, preferrebly about 75 or 74 since it is more realistic and right now it is harder to be called up ### 2/5 — So many problems *2026-06-29, version 2.0.0* The concept is amazing like unbelievable so props for that but there js so many problems for example The game doesn’t save somehow and everytime you leave it gets deleted then we have to wait for 200 minutes to play the game and there is just so much things you have to pay to be able to play this game. I think if you really want this game to go far you have to fix the bugs and make it less about money and more about the game itself I would’ve gave it five stars but it’s pay to win ### 4/5 — P’tit défaut *2026-06-25* J’adore le jeu mes pourquoi l’énergie descend au lieu de mettre monter c’est loin fun les je sais que sait un coup marquette ### 3/5 — Fun but flawed *2026-06-19, version 2.0.0* There are a lot of fun things about this game. I like how quickly you can progress through the seasons. I like the in game actions mechanic. The reason I’m probably going to stop is that the rolling mechanic seems broken. I’m at an 89 with high stats, but it seems like half the time I’m “rolling 75% or above. Multiple times a game I’m failing 90% actions. It’s unreliable and so it makes the game unplayable ### 2/5 — No idea why it scores so highly it’s half a game compared to New Star Soccer *2026-05-28, version 2.0.0* This game literally takes the bare bones of the life admin from New Star Soccer without any of the the matchday or skill game mode options. The game itself is so flawed. No club ever comes in with a reasonable contract offer so I’ve literally been with the same club for 7 seasons. Internationally my game is stuck in the qualifiers from the first season so we’ve never played a World Cup or euros. I could go on. Just download New Star Soccer instead. ### 3/5 — Could be good *2026-05-27, version 2.0.0* Could be a good game, but seems fundamentally floored when trying to build consistency. I’ve never known so many 70% success rate chances to fail as in this game. Seems like this success rate has no impact on what seems like predetermined outcomes ### 3/5 — Profile getting wiped *2026-05-24, version 2.0.0* Its a good game. For some reason though my progress keeps getting wiped? Its been working for a few days up until today ### 4/5 — Currency needs to be accurate. *2026-05-21, version 2.0.0* The currency needs to be pounds not dollars as my player is English playing for a English club. ### 3/5 — Has potential, but a lot of issues *2026-05-20, version 1.8.0* This game has the bones to be really good. The current version of the game is really broken though. I have won the league 3 times yet have no trophies in the glory section. Cup games have no extra time or penalties, if u draw u win, but u dont get a trophy for it in glory. Transfers are broken my player is on over 50k a week yet the only transfer offers coming are for leagues like mls j1 etc and offering less than half his current wage. Events in a game seem to have no affect on the outcome, for example if i choose to draw a foul and win a freekick, that never leads to a goal, so what was the point in me choosing that. Before adding more features please improve the existing ones. ### 3/5 — Needs Update *2026-05-19, version 1.8.0* The game Is good ngl but there are some issues. Firstly no matter what option I pick the AI sometimes fail me even when my rating is 99 and skills are all improved to the max. Secondly I don't feel like investments are needed in this game because they are of no use if they ALWAYS fail and return. Thirdly what the point of contract if there are no highpayment for skillful and well-developed players? I have greater achievement and improved stat and I'm still given a contract with 26k a week doesn't make sense at all and in general it feel like a waste of time and real money spent on the game itself. ### 4/5 — The game is designed to waste your time *2026-05-17, version 1.8.0* The stamina system literally goes down so quickly to the point where it forces you to watch a ad for a drink (Gives stamina) or you literally just have to wait like 20 minutes till it fills up literally every time it goes down to 0. Not to mention the unfair percentages in matches and ridiculous player stat system, as it goes up you have to spend more upgrade points just to even move one up. This game is good, but it’s clearly money hungry and not worth your time unless you’re bored and have time to waste. The game is also easier if you have money to spend at the ready. ### 3/5 — Average game *2026-05-17, version 1.8.0* It better if don’t have ads ### 4/5 — Great fun but game AI is drunk *2026-05-17, version 1.8.0* Love this game great fun to play (waiting for stamina can drag) my player is turning into a beast top scorer and assists dominates games dragging international team to glory but the contracts being offer are a joke! Is the game AI drinking lol leading the premier league by a country mile top scorer and assists as a CAM is crazy overall ratting 87 at 19 but getting joke offer for rotation in Saudi crazy! Great fun all the same ### 3/5 — Mude o sistema de energia! *2026-05-15* só falta isso para o jogo ficar bom. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fun game, $40 a year membership? *2026-07-20, version 2.0.0* The game is fun but I am not paying $40 a year to play premium. Without premium your player runs out of stamina after like 5 minutes ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2026-06-23, version 2.0.0* 20 minutes just to play the game is absurd and it’s money hungry either watch a ad or pay for gems to buy a drink and I lose energy by sitting on the bench? And they want you to by premium to get faster stamina To make this a great game have easier ways to get stamina outside of dilemmas and drinks and reduce stamina drain ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-05-26, version 2.0.0* You cannot play a load of matches as you stamina does not regenerate, slow increase in stamina needs improvement. Game now deleted ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2026-05-24, version 2.0.0* Career doesn’t save. Lose all progress every time game closes. ### 1/5 — My save keeps getting deleted *2026-05-23, version 2.0.0* Every time I shut down the game my save has gone I will be deleting this app due to trying the several times!! Sort it out devs ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2026-05-12, version 1.8.0* If you want people to play your game why would you make it unplayable? The gameplay is great but what the hell is this stamina system all about??? Absolutely ridiculous needs fixing ASAP if you want the playerbase to grow. Why can’t you be happy with the money from adverts instead of making the game unplayable unless you want to pay? Absolutely ridiculous decision from the creators. ### 1/5 — Big bug *2026-05-12, version 1.8.0* Enjoyable game but doesn’t seem to save so you have to restart career every time ### 1/5 — Too much pay to play *2026-05-06, version 1.8.0* I would play this game so much more if I didn’t have to pay for gems to then buy energy it’s so dumb ### 1/5 — Unplayable without paying money *2026-05-01* Money grab ### 1/5 — Stamina *2026-04-24, version 1.8.0* Awful game can’t even play without getting dropped from your contract… moral constantly drops no matter how well you preform do not download this app ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Proposal and request *2026-08-09, version 4.0.0* I wish you would also add a profile of the coach. ### 5/5 — Great game but a bug *2026-07-09, version 2.0.0* This is a great game to play, but the daily mission of handling media duties never completes even though there’s almost always a little press conference before every game. The days where that’s a mission I can’t complete them all ### 5/5 — Best accident ever *2026-05-21, version 2.0.0* I accidentally downloaded this game about a week ago, and I haven’t stopped playing since, abseloutely love the game, well done ### 5/5 — Fix stamina!! *2026-05-15, version 1.8.0* This game is quite fun. It would be something i would play all the time if it wasn’t for the stamina system. The game is completely unplayable. No one wants to wait 30 minutes for their stamina to come back. They wanna get into that game. It’s unnecessary and ruins everything for me ### 5/5 — wow! *2026-05-14, version 1.8.0* i love this game so much best mobile game i’ve seen in a while ### 5/5 — Review *2026-05-14, version 1.8.0* This game if fantastic its simple but engaging, The only thing I m not satisfied with is that its not too hard to score or assist which is unrealistic specially when its the first season. ### 5/5 — Bug *2026-05-11, version 1.8.0* It wouldn’t let me swipe up to let me play games ### 5/5 — Problem *2026-05-10* Good game but there is a problem. When I play for national team, it says I get skill points yet I do not receive them. In this case, performing good for the national team does not matter in terms of skill point. Please fix this, thank you. ### 5/5 — Suggestion *2026-05-09, version 1.8.0* The game is very good, however there are some bugs and also I think you should add a way to see other team’s standings when a team offer’s you a contract to join their team ### 5/5 — This Game is great *2026-05-07, version 1.8.0* The game is great, my only complaints are 1. Everytime you win the league, the trophy doesn’t get counted 2. Can you even play in the Champions League? If you can how? 3. The skill points you get from playing with your country don’t get counted (Other than that, This game is 🔥) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
