Professional Manager 2005

Professional Manager 2005 is a football manager created by a Spanish game developer Gaelco, primarily dedicated to players from Spain. The game stands out from the crowd of similar products (e.g. Championship Manager or Football Manager 2005) thanks to an option designed specially for those fed up with working on the best tactics on 2D screens.

First of all, the authors implemented Live Manager (LIMA) system, letting you give tactical commands to individual players in real time (40 instructions in total). You get to watch each match as it goes (in 3D mode) and, if necessary, adjust players' formation or make substitutions. Each change brings an actual result. For example, switching the tactics from offensive to defensive (of either the entire team or individual players) may really turn over the match score.

The producer provided rich content. Professional Manager 2005 features about 48 thousand players from 2,000 clubs from all over the world. Apart from the greatest teams (from Spanish, English, Italian, German, and Japanese league) there are also those from lower leagues from many countries (including regional Spanish divisions, such as Cornella, Calahorra, etc). The creators included several play modes, starting with leagues and national cups, through to international tournaments (UEFA Cup).
