    xpert eleven is just fun, but only if you're in a big league of friends.

    i never really got into Hattrick, and Sunday League i played for a bit then just kind of got bored.

    Trophymanager is a great management game. it's free to use, but you can get a "Pro" account as well. the Pro account doesn't really give you any in-game advantages. it just makes things easier. the game just keeps getting better and better with new tools and features being added.

    league games run three days a week (W, F, Sun.) with cup games being on Mondays and Thursdays. you can schedule friendlies those days if you are knocked out of the cup as well. friendlies are basically just for trying new formations as you get no money and players get no experience with them. this keeps from making friendlies "mandatory". you can also set up friendly leagues with friends if you have a Pro account. some Houston Dynamo fans have a league.

    another cool feature is national teams which will eventually be expanded to even include U-21 national teams. every two seasons (24 weeks) nations vote and elect a national team manager. right now qualifying for the region tournaments is going on. last season was the World Cup.

    i hope you all give it a shot. it really is a great game.

    I've been playing this game for 2-3 seasons now and its ACE!! highly recommended.

    I've played hattrick too but it's a tad too complicated so i gave up within a week. Trophymanager on the other hand is very good in it's easy to use format. It doesnt take too long to understand the game and really know how to use the tools and play.

    Just started Managerzone and is looking the goods at the moment

    I play footstar

    You can control the career of a player down to his house and everything, its much different than other games where you control a team just of bot players.

    My player #734 look me up!

    I think the best online manager game is manager-mania. Better tactics, and with a board to negotiate season after season. MM RULES! http://www.manager-mania.com.

    That link seems to be dead.

    I just wanted to report "a new player in the field": Virtual Manager. They just recently launched the site in English, so the texts is a bit weird... overall worth a try I think.

    That poll is missing Trophy Manager. It's the best in my opinion :)

    I've only tried Hattrick (not a good experience) and another site called XpertEleven. They both have their flaws but were quite interesting in their own ways... that was then, when I had a lot of free time.

    Im looking for a manager game , i already play Xperteleven and am looking for a second. The thing that really turns me off about other manager games is that once u make a team , ur already in a league with like 10 games played automatically.

    In Trophy manager, are there lots of leagues, or just one big one"?

    there's tons. TM has a pyramid structure with the bottom four moving down at the end of each season and the top two moving up. each league has 18 teams. as you move down the divisions, the total number of groups in each division doubles.

    Division Groups
    1 1
    2 3
    3 6
    4 12

    etc. Divisions 1 and 2 have a special setup for promotion and relegation where the bottom three in D1 are automatically relegated and the next three play a playoff game against the 2nd place teams in D2.

    Chile has five divisions right now. the only downside is that your first season will be part over unless you wait about 5 weeks, but if you don't wait, you'll probably be promoted when inactive teams are deleted in the divisions ahead of you.

    So if I join the league right now itll show me like i had played some games by the AI?
    Also, im thinking about joining the USA league instead.

    yea, you could possibly wait a couple of weeks to make sure you get in at the end of this season and still get promoted after the deletion of inactives at the end of the season.

    USA has over twice as many players as Chile, so you'll start off in Div. 6, i believe.

    now that i think about it, you may wait till the end of the season to make a team because if you get lucky and start off in Div 5 instead, you'll get a better starting team. starting teams have different levels of talent depending on which division they start in.

    I miss many (good) manager-games in the voting-list :-s

    The ones I like best are SoccerProject and Sokker, both not on the list.
    I did play Hattrick, Itsagoal and ManagerZone for a while, and they didn't have enough lasting power for me.
    Hattrick I thought was too slow.
    Itsagoal too chaotic, and while in ManagerZone I really liked the 3D-matches (despite horrible animation like players falling all the time, and shooting -180 degrees :p), I lost interest over time.

    SoccerProject stuck to me because it sucks you in with a high pace (4 league-games a week, and up to 4 friendlies per day!) and Sokker is superior where it comes to tactics. I love telling my 11 boys exactly where to run ;-)

    Trophy Manager has roughly 120,000 teams worldwide. Each manager plays within his own country's leagues. The smallest countries (in terms of the number of managers) have only one or two divisions but larger countries have as many as ten divisions.

    In addition to club teams, each nation has a national team. The national team coach is elected every two years by his peers. He coaches that nation's best players against other nations. The World Cup is played every four "years" (each year is 12 weeks in real life) and the Regional Cup tournament rotates with the World Cup, and is likewise played every four years.

    Managers use different strategies to try to get ahead. Some managers are excellent tactical managers, and work hard to understand the in-game intricacies of the match engine. Other managers ply the international transfer market and some turn huge profits. Other managers concentrate on the development of their youth academies and training grounds.

    Many different successful strategies are possible. The choice is yours.

    If you join --- send me a friendly challenge --- Mad River FC in USA 1.1. (At least for the moment!)
