The graphics in the game are considered adequate but not impressive, with some users expressing a desire for improvement, particularly in the user interface. While the visuals are deemed secondary to gameplay, they can detract from the overall experience, especially in a sports manager context where the focus is more on data than on visuals.
“The game has something about it, I mean other than the sensible soccer match graphics, a good concept.”
“I wished, however, that it had better graphics/UI for PC, because it hurts my eyes, and the various points where you have to click to constantly open and close messages can get quite annoying.”
“The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better.”

“And you don't look at the graphics much anyway; like all sports manager games, it's just a glorified spreadsheet sim.”

The monetization in this game is heavily criticized for being overly reliant on mobile app-style microtransactions, which detracts from the overall experience. Players feel that the in-game purchases are not only intrusive but also essential for progression, making the game feel more like a cash grab than a genuine sports management experience.
“I have played games where the in-game purchases can be spent to cheat your way through the game, but they are not essential to the enjoyment of the game.”
“The monetization model is fair, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money.”
“I appreciate that the game offers cosmetic items for purchase, which don't affect gameplay balance.”
“This isn't really free as the game is infested with mobile app store-like microtransactions.”
“If you want to play a sports management game, play a real one, not this mobile app cash grab.”
“It is a half decent game to begin with and poor monetization makes it half-half decent.”

The gameplay is praised for allowing players to focus on managing a football club as a business rather than getting bogged down in tactical planning, making it an enjoyable experience for those seeking a more streamlined approach to football management.
“This game is great; I'm loving the gameplay because I've always wanted a director-of-football game that doesn't require me to handle all the tactical football planning, but instead allows me to run the club as a business.”

“The story feels disjointed and lacks a coherent narrative, making it hard to stay engaged.”
“Character development is shallow, leaving players feeling disconnected from their motivations.”
“The plot twists are predictable and fail to deliver any real emotional impact.”
