Let them cook *2026-04-19, version 1.9.0* Really good idea as bad financial issues and build from scraps although it’s really hard at the start as I’m still in league 2 4th season but I’m doing well but it is really good game. Would recommend! ### 4/5 — Solid game *2026-04-02, version 1.9.0* although not 5 star I wish we could unlock more rewards in the weekly goal scoring thing and not have to pay. Also for some reason after 15 years it does not show A players youth club unless it’s yours I think that needs to be fixed ### 2/5 — So much potential! But it’s pay to win *2026-03-27, version 1.9.0* Great simple mechanics make this game really great and addictive to play, but it’s too hard without paying to play! I would rather at least get a start and maybe be tempted to pay then languish in the bottom league with no money, constant season ending injuries that make you lose your yearly bonus. I’d be happy to pay to have a much better game experience than pay to win. ### 4/5 — 4 star *2025-12-22, version 1.8.0* The game is super fun and addicted but why cant i accept daily and the pas stuf i pres it and it doesnt transfer ### 3/5 — How do I watch my team play *2025-12-03, version 1.8.0* Good ### 2/5 — Don’t waste your time *2025-09-22, version 1.8.0* The mechanics of this game are just broken. Losing to teams 19 OVR below you at home for some unknown reason. Have 100 chemistry before any devs come in here trying to tell me stuff I already know about the game. The mechanics of your game are broken. And this is true of every game you’ve developed. Done playing these games. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2025-08-20, version 1.8.0* This game is really awesome I wish there was one like the QB game that came out from you guys but for soccer. Also some suggestions is the ability to talk to retiring players and give them the option to join the staff before they retire. Also when a staff member retires or is retiring we should be able to replace him instead of having to release him and then find a replacement. Also when they offer for a transfer there should be a chance another team offers a better offer to try and snatch the player last minute. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2025-08-19* This game is really awesome I wish there was one like the QB game that came out from you guys but for soccer.

Pourquoi je mets 4 étoiles ? Parceque au final après de très longue partie (2090/2100) impossible d’avoir une meilleure équipe que 98 de générale SAUF si on utilise des Gear. Le problème ? On gagne pas assez d’argent pour acheter des GEAR utile si on en prend 1 c’est compliqué les finances. Et surtout un truc chiant arrive aussi a ce moment là. Le recrutement est trop aléatoire. Mon exemple : un joueur à 90 de générale sauf que il est dans une équipe avec un GEAR +10 il a donc réellement 80 de générale et en plus il a le playstyle de son équipe actuelle il a donc pas 80 mais 75. Et au final tu penses recruter un jeune 90 de générale top mais tu payes 100M pour un joueur 75 de générale potentiel 3 étoile. **Developer response:** Hello Poorrock, thank you for playing our game and for your feedback! We're glad to hear you found the experience positive! We will consider your feedback for the future updates. ### 2/5 — Loved it till it bugs *2025-08-13, version 1.8.0* Has been one of my favorite games on mobile phone so far, been from 4th division to 1st with a lot of pleasure BUT….. when I got promoted to the 1st division, the game bugged and stopped at the “set ticket price” screen. No possibility to go further. I’ve written to customer service but had no answer from them after many tries. I feel so disappointed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This Game Sucks! *2026-07-14, version 1.9.0* I Can’t Play A Single Match Only Transfers! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-07-07, version 1.9.0* What an infuriating rendition, when it used to be fun. It makes it so hard to manage the budget. So many injuries. I’m constantly losing when my team’s ranked better. It cut out in-game control so there’s no point of “playing” the games. Just dumb. So dumb. ### 1/5 — BAD GAME DONT INSTALL *2026-02-25, version 1.9.0* you can’t even make win stuff once ur team gets good. Utterly impossible to get to the later stages without spending abit of money. Recent update is utter trash. DONT WASTE UR TIME OR MONEY! ALSO DONT LISTEN TO THEM WHEN THEY TELL YOU TO GON THEIR SUBREDDIT! It does not help! The community just complains and says the same thing! ### 1/5 — Really bad *2026-02-21, version 1.9.0* Tried number 3 since it’s been out, pretty awful, staff constantly getting poached and no chance of offering them better deals when they get approached, getting 10m compensation is poor and 0 tp back is just plain ridiculous. Now to the actual playing, been playing for 70 years, won my first d1 title 40 years ago, been between 98-100 overall for the last 40 years, won 10 d1’s only and 2 champions leagues, no idea what you’ve done to the game but it’s garbage now, the basketball game is really good, nothing like this monstrosity, off to try a different game, not wasting any more time with this muck. ### 1/5 — Great concept but they did everything wrong *2025-12-14, version 1.8.0* I’ve been trying to play the game for a couple hours now. And when I say a couple hours I mean I wasted a solid 6 hours trying to figure it out. The game concept is amazing and should be super fun but unfortunately it’s just a massive headache and money grab. It doesn’t necessarily matter what you do all it will tell you is that you need to spend money. I’ve tried multiple saves doing different things but inevitably around 2030 you’re completely screwed all your staff is gone and you have nothing. I had a ton of fun playing the football and basketball version of the game it’s a shame the creators only care about money ### 1/5 — Salary cap *2025-12-10, version 1.8.0* why tf is there a salary cap?! it honestly ruins the whole game. Idk if turning off that feature is behind a pay wall but it shouldn’t be in the game ### 1/5 — Not good *2025-11-23, version 1.8.0* All I have to say is that it want me to produce academy prospects and when I got my daily reward and I would claim it wouldn’t give me the 15 mil please fix this bug ### 1/5 — Pay to Play *2025-09-27, version 1.8.0* I have enjoyed the basketball version of this game. The basketball one is hard and they try and get you to pay at every possible turn but you can still get by with just the premium features which is a one time purchase. This game, however, is completely unplayable. They have made it impossible to play this game. It is not fun and shows how greedy the developers are. Terrible people they are, I would never recommend this game to anyone and hope that as many as possible can read this before wasting a cent on this garbage. ### 1/5 — Ridículo *2025-08-29* Jogo ridículo toda temporada os jogadores se machuca a temporada toda e não joga e ele literalmente todas as temporadas ficam mais de 40 semanas ou meses sei lá como é que funciona aqui no jogo e não volta mais jogar quando começa outra temporada e a mesma coisa ou seja ridículo **Developer response:** Hi Guhbritto, we're sorry to hear about your experience. If you have injury issues, please check your player's Injury Resistance attribute, and improve your doctor to help with that too. The higher that number is, you have a better chance to avoid injuries. ### 1/5 — Awful *2025-07-28, version 1.8.0* I hate it One player gets injured and I spend like five hours finding replacements and wasting my money all over the game. I lose every game seven and now I’m lucky to get a goal. fix the game give it a new update fix the game and then when I run out of budget straight away this is the worst game I’ve ever played. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Management *2026-08-22, version 1.9.0* Everything is good but I ran into some bugs on the game. When I got the message that my Mc coach was leaving I released him from the resign part of the offseason. But not in the message and it won’t let me aim the next week because the message won’t go away and it doesn’t give me any to remove it myself. Please fix it, I really appreciate and enjoy playing this game!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Great game but one thing *2026-06-17, version 1.9.0* This is a really good game, but I need to know how the wage budget works, so I can add more money so I can sign players. ### 5/5 — Management *2026-05-28, version 1.9.0* I basically almost have all my facilities max out and I’m losing money every year. I doesn’t look like I can sustain or make money every year once I max out. ### 5/5 — Très bon jeu *2026-02-28* Super jeu de gestion sportive, pour pas cher, la durée de vie est infinie. La gestion d’équipe est est simple et progressive, on s’amuse bien. J’aurais quand même développé un peu mieux les transferts qui sont clairement inutile car constamment à notre désavantage. Ça manque de gardiens de but dans l’ensemble. **Developer response:** Hello! We’re glad you’re enjoying the experience. Thank you for taking the time to share. ### 5/5 — Class, really great but… *2026-02-06, version 1.8.0* Class game. The way yous managed to produce a game of this quality, and adjust your format to the footballing world is really top notch. However, international transfers would b a great addition. Def recognise it would b a lot to adjust, but it would balance out the spread of talent against the OP champions league opposition. A more realistic feel would come from the European matches, but the rest is def at a fantastic standard ### 5/5 — Best Manager Games *2026-01-24, version 1.8.0* I’ve played a lot of sports manager games on mobile and have always struggled to find ones I enjoy. I have played the soccer, football, college football, baseball, and basketball manager games they have produced. Each has similar mechanics but are very well done and perfect for a mobile sports manager game. My only request, is if you guys could produce an “Ultimate F1 Manager” or Grand Prix manager as there is nothing else out there on the market for this. There are F1 games out there, but not an offline manager of an F1 team. Just a thought as I love these games especially as I travel on flights and all over! Thanks! ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-01-24, version 1.8.0* I’ve played this game for years now and I love it but the ticket prices are bugged . Can you guys please try to fix it? ### 5/5 — Nota 9.9 *2025-12-11* Ótimo jogo, mas seria legal ter mais algumas atualizações, para ter informações mais claras **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for granting us 5 stars! If you're looking for some tips or more information about the game, you can visit our subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/uclubfootballmanager/ ### 5/5 — UGM Soccer review *2025-10-30, version 1.8.0* Going through and reviewing all games. This is one of my personal favorites, and I’ve put in some serious work ( Look for lllll in the standings, I’m top 50 for one of the gm tales and top 5 for the other one). I have loved this game with a passion and would play it 24/7 if I could. The only thing I would want which is so nit picky is to allow you to pick the plays in PVP mode AND just be able to sim them. I have a lot of times my phone will go idle while I watch the game for no reason. Overall tho so much fun!😁 Edit: I have a DEVELOPER question. For all of your games, what factors into game results?? I have always wondered because I have a team that’s really high overall and they will still lose. How much does the bench affect the score results, along with other things?? ### 5/5 — C’est cool *2025-08-28* Très bon jeu **Developer response:** Hello Quentin, thanks a lot for the awesome review!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
