Management through decisions
Here you do not pick the team match by match. You are the sporting director: you sign players, negotiate with agents and manage the budget, the coach, the staff, the press and the board. Every message puts a choice in front of you, and every choice has a price.

Pick a club, read the first messages and move on day by day. Your game is saved in your browser after every action. To play on another device, a Google account is optional.
