Overperform: Soccer Manager

Overperform is a football manager where you never watch the match. You pick the eleven, set the plan, sign the players — and then find out the score. A career is measured one way: finish higher than anyone expected. The expectation comes from the club's wage bill, not from last season. A rich club survives easily and has nothing to prove; a poor one is the opposite — which is why choosing the club is already a decision. WHAT YOU DECIDE • The eleven and the shape. Every slot costs you points if the wrong player stands in it. • Rotation. Freshness and condition fall with every match and every session, and a deep squad pays for itself in points — measured, not promised. • The training week. What you work on and how hard you go: fast growth is paid for in legs and in the treatment room. • Transfers. Scouts bring approximate valuations — a poor scout is further off. Talks are a haggle, and an insulting offer ends them for a week. • The board. A season objective, a patience that runs out, and four things they judge you on: league, cup, finances, youth. THE WORLD • Three divisions, 54 clubs, promotion, relegation and play-offs. • A cup across the whole pyramid: lower leagues start in qualifying, the top flight enters later. Everyone is in the draw. • Knockout ties go to a hundred and twenty minutes and penalties. • Every club has a past: the year it was founded, its honours, its recent years. • The manager's office: budget, objective, promises, trophies and your record. English and Russian. A season lasts exactly as long as you sit with it: no energy bars, no waiting for tomorrow.
