Every year, Football Manager edges a little closer to total life replacement simulator. Except this year, where they haven’t even released a game.

Even when they do release a game, for all its glory, FM still has room to grow. Maybe you dream of a true Director of Football mode. Maybe you want a revamped youth intake system. Or maybe, just maybe, you just want agents to stop being such absolute gremlins.

Well, now’s your chance to speak up. I’ve put together a poll with a mix of realistic, long-requested features and a few wildcard ideas that might just actually improve the game. Cast your vote, share it around, and let’s show the FM devs what the community really wants from FM26.
