About this game

Football Manager 2 is a football management simulation from Addictive Games that adds greater tactical control and player detail to the series. Managers can select formations, assign man-to-man marking, and make substitutions or tactical changes at half-time.

Players have individual skill and fitness ratings, while matches allow individual performances to be watched and assessed. Match graphics distinguish the attacking, midfield, and defensive areas more clearly, and training lets managers specify passing length and height.

The game includes the full 92-club league, along with both the League Cup and FA Cup.
