"Those that dismiss Football Manager as just being a game of numbers presumably haven’t heard the epic rags-to-riches stories any player is keen to tell of their games.‭ Involving dramas are ten a penny:‭ ‬a new and expensive signing winning a promotion against the odds,‭ ‬a change of tactics sending fortunes into freefall and causing a sacking.‭ Whether they mirror or contrast with them,‭ ‬FM’s alternative versions of real-life football seasons are endlessly fascinating.‭ ‬Numbers might be abstract,‭ ‬but FM pops them into reality." - Edge
