Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Become embroiled in one of life's most demanding jobs in Alex Ferguson Player Manager 2001.

Alex Ferguson Player Manager 2001 contains all the latest information from the Premier Division, the Nationwide divisions, as well as the Scottish and Champions League. All aspects of football management are covered here, from buying and selling players to the less public duties of dealing with the club's accounts and setting the training schedule.

As from any statistically driven sports game, the emphasis is placed on thought and tactics rather than engaging in actual matches. The graphics are good and the menu system comprehensive, yet, frustration might set in as a result of the level of detail available. However, with perseverance, Alex Ferguson Player Manager 2001 is the one of the better football management game available on the PlayStation. --Alex Leung.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Footie Management on a Console, 19 Nov 2001
By Darren G (Haddenham, Bucks) - See all my reviews
Like the others say, if you want the best, buy Championship Manager on the PC. If your PC is in the study and you want to play in comfort, buy AF Player Manager on the PS2.

Having been a fan of Championship Manager for some time I was a bit hesitant about buying a game of the same genre which didn't measure up in reviews. However, after renting it out to give it a try I ordered my copy the next day.

Like all Footie Management games it takes a little effort learning your way around the menus and working out what to do on a daily basis. But after about a couple of hours I was up and running at full pace.

The game is much quickier to progress through a season as it is simpler than CM. I managed to complete my first season in about a week.

I have a couple of gripes about things which are missing. No youth or reserve team is frustrating if you are accustomed to CM. And the communication with the board is also frustrating as you don't know what they are thinking until they send you a message that you need to get your finger out! But these are minor complaints.

Overall, the game is not Championship Manager but is definitely the best Footie Manager game on a console at the moment. So rather than sit in my study on the PC to play CM I am happy to give up a little functionality and sit in comfort in the lounge to play Player Manager on the PS2. It will do until Eidos get their finger out and port CM to the PS2!
