The monetization aspect of the game has received significant criticism, with players expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay and hinder progress. Many users feel that the game is heavily skewed towards a "pay-to-win" model, where microtransactions are necessary to advance, and the rewards for watching ads are often inconsistent or insufficient. Overall, while some appreciate the option to watch ads for in-game currency, the overwhelming presence of advertisements has led to a negative impact on the gaming experience.
“Great, very addictive, although harder (not impossible) without using in-app purchases. The game is weighted towards lots of transfers, so your team ends up looking like a top 3 league in the world superstars if you have the funds.”
“There are microtransactions in the game; that's a shame.”
“The game is highly unfair and only rewards microtransactions and boss coin buyers.”
“Too many ads and they are getting longer, and you need to go through 3 steps to close an ad.”
“It seems like the developers are more focused on ads than on the game.”

Overall, the gameplay of the game is seen as a mixed bag by users. While many appreciate its realistic elements and smooth mechanics, there are significant calls for improvements, such as the ability to make substitutions, change tactics during matches, and enhance the overall fairness of gameplay.

“It's a great game, good gameplay, nice graphics, the new update is great.”

“The only weakness for this game is the gameplay.”
“First off there's not even real gameplay, you just watch it and see what happens and can't even substitute.”

The optimization of the game has received mixed reviews, with users reporting issues such as poor mobile website performance, frequent crashes, and sensitivity to internet connections, despite having stable connectivity. While some updates have improved smoothness, there are ongoing concerns about player progression and fitness mechanics that detract from the overall experience.
“Exhausting update: April 29, 2021, the game runs smoothly.”
“Also, maybe the board adds funds over a period of time to help in improving the squad based on performance, something like win bonuses and goal bonuses.”
“Add players and club icons after this, please make changes in the player progression system during the season so that the players progress or regress after every 4 games (1 month) according to their age and performance in the games.”
“And super limiting because not only am I restricted from doing my very best with my teams, but your mobile website doesn't even feel optimized for phones and tablets (that use mobile layout).”
“I had a bad experience with the latest version of the app because it has become too sensitive about connection; it crashes a lot, and I have to reset it repeatedly. What poor performance!”
“Not much to say about the game, but I give it 2 stars because of a really big issue: fitness doesn't seem to affect performance.”

The music aspect of the game has received significant criticism, with multiple users noting the absence of a soundtrack or sound effects during gameplay, which they find boring and detracting from the overall experience. Many players feel that the inclusion of music and sound would enhance the game's enjoyment and immersion.
“Sounds and music needed.”
“Great game, love playing it, only reason I didn't give 5 is because there's no music/soundtrack/sound during the game simulations or commentary.”
“There should be a soundtrack playing like other games.”
“But the game is without sound and music and it's boring.”

Many have experienced repeated failures to launch the app, often requiring multiple attempts to access it. Overall, while the game is enjoyable, its stability problems detract from the overall experience.
“Saying this, it can be pretty buggy on my Ulefone Note 9P (latest Android). The last few days, it's not logging in at all on startup; it's just got the football spinning in the bottom right, but it just keeps spinning and not opening the app.”
“Great game, but sometimes there are glitches for me, like my players disappearing after I put them in the lineup, which causes me to lose.”
“I have to try more than 5 times at least to launch it, and even during launching the game, many glitches happen.”
