What players say

Players are split on this entry. Longtime fans say it barely changes year to year and warn those who own the previous version to skip it, while newcomers or players new to the series praise the deep management and addictive match engine. A common complaint is unpredictable batting collapses and AI teams scoring too quickly, making it hard to find a balanced difficulty.
