In-Depth Negotiations - Working with real-world agents, we designed a system of detailed negotiations that better reflected the way deals are done in football.

Funnily enough, this feature coincided with PSG turning Ligue 1 into a key destination in world football. As teams grew stronger and performed better on a continental level, so the league they played in also grew in stature, attracting better players to its shores.

One of the most-requested new features was dynamic league reputation. Two years on from the introduction of the 3D Match Engine, we delivered a huge round of improvements, with over 100 new animations, player emotions, player models, stadiums, pitch textures, improved lighting, floodlit night matches and more goal celebrations. You could also set individual schedules so players focused on up to 14 skill areas.

This helped us introduce a deeper negotiation system where players, agents and the club would go back and forth in real time, and personal feelings of those involved were just as important as the numbers.įM11 also introduced the most intuitive training system in the series' history, with a new 'match preparation' area of training for laying down specific areas of focus ahead of the next game. The art of good business is to be a good middleman, so when we set out to introduce detailed contract talks to Football Manager 2011, we went and spoke to a bunch of real-life agents.
