Football Manager 2024 Reviews

I’ve been playing this game since fm22 mobile and fell in love with it ever since. But used to be I could just buy the game and then own and enjoy it for a year till the next one, now I have to subscribe to a streaming service I don’t watch, and have to pay $20+ monthly just to be able to play this game? Coporate greed is real. Loves this game but this might be the last year I check this game out. Just gonna stick to my fm21 mobile and fm22 mobile from then on if this keeps up

Twice now, this game has entirely deleted all of my saved game data with no warning or reason.

There’s talk on the developer’s forum about fixing the issue, but that hasn’t happened yet and this problem has been around for months. Absolute waste of money and the most frustrating issue possible.

Finally I as able to download. However, when I open the game and type Netflix credentials, the next screen shows a selection about who will play. After click it always return to login screen.

Been playing and one off purchasing this game each season since CM days.
Utter crazy to link to Netflix so cannot just buy. I have an account, but feel will continue with older versions than get caught in this trap.

Somehow I can’t progress past September 2, 2023 which seems ridiculous and disappointing. This game just get worse and frustrating

I tried to play but when you are on 4-5 it just freezes then resets to the begining how do i fix this glitch

Used to love the game but paying 20 bucks monthly? For a mobile game? Whoever thought having an agreement with Netflix would be a good idea must be an idiot who led to the demise of our fun.

Can’t even start to play

FootballManager2024 cannot be downloaded, it shows an iCloud icon and restarts downloading once it finishes downloading and installing.

What happened to paying $10 for the game and $8 for editor. Now it’s ridiculous that I have to pay monthly to play this game

I was really excited to when this game was gonna come out but I realized u need a streaming service to play the. The game is the same as fm 23 mobile bit transfers updated I am hoping they realize what they did and they realize will realize how many players wouldn’t play this game I hope they bring it back to one time paying

Ridiculous you Guys ruined your mobile game by making us pay monthly for Netflix .

Great game with one game breaking issue - it keeps losing the saved game file and all progress is lost. One minute you can load fine from the file then next the file is gone never to be recovered. This has happened twice and happens when save is on device and in ICloud. Reading FAQs it sounds like this a known issue but would advise not to play this otherwise great game as all your time and effort in the game could be lost at any moment.

FootballManager2024 crashes when I try to login with my Netflix account. When I connect my account to the game, it automatically restarts and asks for my account informations again.

Will consistently get stuck on the screen with all the licenses mentioned. Have to keep uninstalling.

It’s absolutely ridiculous I can’t have a paid option where I spend the $10 and the another $8 for the editor like I do every year. Sure, have the game free for members of Netflix, that’s fine. Please tell me why I can’t have a paid option?!? Why do I need to pay a monthly subscription fee to play the game either as mobile or FM Touch?!? Tripping over dollars to save pennies here guys…

I am okay with the new menu style which I like but in all the years of buying the game I have not dealt with so many bugs and issues ever.

I can’t even play the game since the game can’t even be saved properly. I do it without a problem but then when I exit to the Home Screen and try to get back to my game guess what NOTHING was saved. It’s literally unplayable, please patch this up or else don’t bother releasing the game when it has this many bugs and problems.

this was honestly not a very good idea, people would rather pay the $10 for the full game than have to download and play through netflix. this game constantly deletes my saves and i’m sure there’s multiple people who have the same issue as well . idk what you guys tried to change something that wasn’t broken but oh well. stop deleting my saves i’ll rather go back on fm23 at this point if it will continue to do that .

I have been playing all the versions for years, and it is the only mobile game that I am very addicted to, and it is impossible for me to go a day without it. In this version, you have to log in to the Netflix account at the very beginning, while the error 7006 is always returned. As a result, it is not possible for me to play this game, no one supports me to solve my problem

This is a mobile game. Why should we have to subscribe to play a mobile game. This game is becoming a joke. Whoever is in charge of marketing and sales for you guys needs fired.

The only thing you do by making this Netflix subscription requirement is limit your potential player base to only people who have Netflix accounts (which is not very common anymore for everyone to have the subscription because they keep raising prices for mediocre content).

So congrats, I hope Netflix gave you a nice upfront payment because you’ve successfully killed one of the best mobile games.

First huge issue is that you can’t tap on a player and the position to select him for a match, you need to draw the purple box beside the player to the position. This annoying and many times the iPad thinks I’m trying to swipe to the side and changes the screen.
Second. There are so many bugs.. Board disappointed because I didn’t win a league in the middle of the season while I am in second, transition that shows up every day for me to confirm and doesn’t go through,..
Third, this visa restriction to hire players make it impossible to play. Every 10 players I try to buy 9 get denied, even with the appeal.
It feels like you don’t want us to move to the 2024 version.

It doesn’t want to download for some reason

I am writing a review about improvement of the game in football management and his international award system to players to make the game to be more better and also enjoy the game better,there should be update to make this game better immediately which it’s very important,I love the game but issue I raised its very important to make the game better and also to make it one of the best football management game especially in player development,transfer,loans and bringing out new features which will also help in improving the quality of the game

The fact that I have to subscribe to Netflix just to play this instead of just being able to purchase is embarrassing. Whoever thought of this is one devious sob

Have been playing for 2 days now after downloading it but it got stopped now it just bring white it can’t load again idk what’s wrong help pls

The Ui is terrible somehow worse than last year and hard to navigate. Feels over congested

When it finishes downloading and it’s starts installing it literally shows an icloud logo and i have to redownload it again and again. Stupid

As I see, you have to be paying netflix monthly to play the game. This is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen recently

I log in on my Netflix account and it goes right back to the first screen EVERY time.

Simply can’t even play the game.

I’m just disappointed.

I can’t play the game, my Netflix account don’t log

I finished one season but I can’t another season the game keeps exiting and restarting at the same place

I’ve been supporting Sports Interactive and their games for decades, back when the game was called Worldwide Soccer Manager. I’ve given thousands over the last two decades to make sure I financially supported a company making a product I’ve loved and wholeheartedly believed in since my childhood, even when I knew due to life, school, and work I may get to play that years version for less than an hour a month. I’ve owned every iteration of their mobile version since it released in 2013, and it was a standalone product purchase. However we live in an age where I’m no longer even allowed to even own my own software, I merely am forced to subscribe to it and the company allows me the privilege of renting it. That would be fine and dandy if the subscription wasn’t laughable in their audacity, a game that cost $10 once now requires me to pay $20 every month for a Netflix subscription. That would be fine MAYBE if they actually ever changed anything with the game, but yet again, it’s just another new version with an updated roster and a new coat of paint on the UI. I’d suggest just spending $10 on last years version of FM23 before they inevitably remove it from the store and force you to engage in this farce. I’m not mad at Sports Interactive, I’m just disappointed.

Edit: I folded and gave your game a chance seeing as my wife subscribed to Netflix. After my first season, mbappe runs out his contract with psg. He then spent the next 8 seasons with no contract from a major club because they couldn’t meet his demands until he retired. The epitome of football management sims, and the best player in the world can’t get a contract for nearly a decade. I say again, what an absolute joke. Instead of releasing an adequate game they put out a buggy mess and optimized profits.

Netflix has ruined this crazy good game that we loved

Scam

Eu entro na conta da Netflix escolho o perfil pra jogar e logo em seguida volta pra tela de login. Péssimo

I am Netflix account.but I can't download this game

玩了一辈子的游戏到最后成了奈飞会员的专属游戏？狗都不玩

Fix transfers. Its a shambles. No club pays the very low set valuations when selling players, and when attempting to negotiate, go even lower, then when trying to buy a player, clubs demand 2x-3x, at minimum, valuation for players, then even demand more when trying to negotiate, never lower. Impossible to make money off selling players and impossible to improve squad without spend entire budget on one or two players. Then, after attempting to buy a player, but selling club refusal to negotiate lower than extortionate fee, they will sell player to another club (even a direct rival) for, or just above valuation. Its an absolute joke. This happens over and over and over. Example; de Ligt valuation of £46 million, Bayern demand £128 million, and refuse to negotiate at all, then sell him to another club for £50 million. I also attempted to sell Varane at Man United, valued at £33.5 million, no takers, even when asking less than £30 million! It has happened with all clubs I have played as, not just United. Board requests are always denied. This needs to be fixed. It makes me want to delete app. If these things were not as they are, I am quite happy with the rest of FootballManager2024 . Some glitches with tactics and how games seem to play out, but mostly am happy with the rest of game, aside from financial and transfers. Cheers

Nothings really changed from the last few years of FM. Seems to be bugs still as I was in the middle of a save and it reverted back to a previous save I had done. Now completely lost my progress. Not sure the point in releasing a new game every year when it doesn’t change and comes with new bugs

I lost a 3-season long save. My phone died as I was on the save, and when I recharged my phone and reopened FM24, my save was gone. I closed and reopened it multiple times, but it still was gone. I had so many good memories and events on that save, which I don’t think will ever be replicated. I even won a treble as a premier league club. The only reason I’m not giving this a one-star review is because the gameplay was good, it was fun, but now I‘m disappointed after I lost all my hard work.

Its good but disappointing at the same time game crashed and lost my saved game twice which i could buy the game instead

so i dont really care about the whole Netflix thing that everyone else is complaining about. what i’m upset about is that this game has way more game breaking bugs than any of the other years’ had upon release. i cant even really play FMM24 yet because the game resets my tactics, automatically makes subs for me, and other annoying tactical related issues.

also, i hate the new saving and loading menu. if it isnt broken, dont fix it. adds a lot of useless clicking and selecting when saving should be a quick thing. (not mad about the quick load option tho)

Whenever I download it it restarts the download and doesn’t work at all fix it

The game deleted my whole progress that i put 50+ hours in. Please if you can do anything please help me redeem it back

This game looks good but it is unplayable, it keeps crashing, I have already restarted my save just thinking it was a corrupted file but I can’t get past July 19th without it crashing. Please fix this, I can’t play the game.

Game is fun and addiction as usual. However, there seems to be a bug when receiving multiple transfer offers for a player. Upon accepting, the transfers are cancelled. Makes it frustrating when trying to unload unwanted players!

Overall, I love the game. Not much new features for last years game but I hope with the new engine that’s coming up, things change for the game. Only thing I don’t like, I’ve been 2,3,4 seasons in and my game crashes and deletes my file. Why is it constantly doing that?

I can’t play the game without it lagging out. I have good WiFi also. I have to go on vacation for it to work.

Hello there, I’ve been playing your game for a while and I enjoy playing it but all of a sudden my saved game of March 2025 went back to December 26th 2024, and now it just force stopped.
Please try and fix this, and I’ll like to have my progress on the game back. Thank you

Listen don’t get me wrong this game is good but after a week it stopped working talking about sign in to Netflix and everytime I do it it’s like an infinite loop can you fix it?

I have encountered an issue where four of my first-team players from South America were marked as unavailable for four important matches (two La Liga games and two Champions League games) due to international duty. However, upon checking the schedules of their national teams, I found that there were no scheduled matches or international fixtures during this period. Am I missing something or is it a bug? I uploaded the saved game (Girona Jan 2025)

So I tried downloading FootballManager2024 but for some reason it said I needed to be a Netflix member although I have a profile I don’t actually know the password so it wouldn’t let me download FootballManager2024 .

The game crashes during Chanpions League matches and now on the start menu it won’t load and all I see is a white blank screen.

When playing a he game is fantastic. But these issues are highly annoying. Please fix!!

First of all, I have been a huge fan and downloaded both mobile and Pc version for decades. The Netflix is annoying but fine…I have an account so it’s not a big deal, just annoying. Rather pay for the game and play it until my heart is content. Now…the consistent crashing part is REALLY annoying, please get it fixed in the next update. Nothing much changed from last year’s version, but I did read that this is the last year for this engine…so I was expecting the same game with just minor improvements. I like the touch version better (but wait, you need arcade for that…big surprise there). It’s all about the money, which is a shame because this is game is consistently on the top downloaded list and always very well supported by the community. But greed once again is winning here. Let’s just hope that it doesn’t become the usual “free to play…but you have to pay a lot to win”…please don’t completely sell out. I know that my opinion doesn’t really matter, but I wish FM would actually listen to the overall feedback from it’s fans and community that have been here for so long.

This version has some good changes like the pre & post match talks, and the board requests for affiliate clubs.

Buts there’s still some changes that I’ve been hoping to see for years, for example being able to pick 11 subs for pre-season friendlies, being able to have an option for players you loan out not to play in cup matches so they’re not cup tied, able to arrange pre-season training camps around the globe and play teams in that area in friendlies, and reminders of up and coming reserve game so you can send fringe players to play in reserve game, and not have to check when the next reserve games are.

But it keeps crashing at annoying times, and the auto save will override my manual saves, super annoying. Like i’m 3-0 up against city, the game crashes, now i lose 2-0. Just leaves a sour taste. I also wish that there was an option to sell players and pay some of their wages to offload players on high wages. I think we should be able to have more then 4 coaches, and more then 3 scouts. Phones have massive memory now, I want you to fill it up with fm!

It shows me a white screen when it gets done showing me all the sponsors thing right when you load the game it shows me a white screen and stays like that

As the title says it’s a good game just like football manager and I recommend if u have a Netflix subscription but if u don’t then don’t get a Netflix subscription if ur only getting it for this game. Also in the title nothing game changing then fm23 just some very small quality of life changes that barley impact the gameplay. Also wish there was a 3d match engine bc I’m not paying for Apple Arcade just for fm24 lite

I like the game but needs 3d gameplay and more but I like that it’s free

I absolutely love FM, and playing on the go is great, but with a new update, making changes pregame became way harder to do. Before, switching out subs was way easier. There was no need for this new way of doing the pregame tactics

Really good game amazing my favorite part is the sim you can see the pass,shots pens,frees it’s like your a real manager in the game all real players that play in the club and other teams can make transfers to so exciting

Since I downloaded the game just couldn’t play after Netflix login , it just shows a blank screen

I noticed that other clubs do not buy players… perhaps this can be tweaked

A very good game but my game crashes time to time and it can be annoying if it doesn’t save this is a very good game other wise though

The game is really good but the graphics could use work

This game requires some serious ball knowledge and is much harder than EAGC manager career. It is just a way I can do that on the go.

Netflix, I hope you never stop making these great games. I love the game itself, and I hope it keeps getting better. The controls and options were a little difficult to find at first, but as I kept playing the game got better and better. Thank you Netflix for this amazing football management game.

I love this game but it keeps stopping free kicks that can create a goal scoring opportunity at the end of games right before the whistle blows. A player could get fouled right outside the box in a 1-1 game and the game would call for full time. Please fix this!

I’ve played it for a long time, but recently on both my iPad and iPhone it keeps crashing and I couldn’t even reach the home page. I’m my phone it’s a blank screen and my iPad a black screen.

Best🤩

Game is bugged out rn my save was fine and now the game doesn’t show the league table for the premier league I’ve deleted the game and loaded it back up but it’s still an issue. Is this a sign that fm mobile is done. We only get two updates and then nothing.

I have been playing fm mobile since 2020. I like you game and spent too much time. This year updates are great however there is a big bug! I play in lower leagues so I rent lot of players. When I rented a player, they sometimes go principal team sometimes A2 team. And they never change. Please fix this problem ASAP
BEST REGARDS

Absolutely amazing . Best football managing game I’ve ever played
You just need to improve better . Won league’s title, Spanish cup , Spanish super cup , champions league and super cup for two consecutive season without a losing any game and it’s sad I never won best manager of the year award . Why ??
