Football Manager 2011 (often abbreviated to FM11) is a football manager simulation video game. It was released for Windows and Mac OS X on 5 November 2010. It was also released for PlayStation Portable on 26 November 2010.[6] A version for iOS was released on 16 December 2010.

Gameplay[edit]

FM11 features similar gameplay to previous entries in the Football Manager series. Gameplay consists of taking charge of a professional[a] association football team, as the team manager. Players can sign football players to contracts, manage finances for the club, and give team talks to players. FM11 is a simulation of real world management, with the player being judged on various factors by the club's AI owners and board.[7]

On 11 August 2010, Sports Interactive published a video announcing a number of new features that would be included in Football Manager 2011.[8] FM11 features enhanced agent roles, with agents all acting differently according to their personalities.[9] In-game press conferences received a revamp, with more in-depth questions being asked by the press.[10]

FM11 also featured improvements to match analysis, with information regarding different plays being shown in-depth.[11][12]

Reception[edit]

Review aggregator website Metacritic gives the game a score of 85/100, with "generally favorable reviews" based on 23 critic reports.[13]

The German website 4players.de rated the game with 87% as "sehr gut".[19]

Sales[edit]

In February 2011, Sega announced that FM11 was the company's third-highest-grossing game of the financial year, with the PC and PSP versions combined selling 690,000 units.[18] Despite this, Sega called the game's sales "slow", alongside PlatinumGames' Vanquish and Sonic Colors.[20]
