Sticky Jimbo?
--------------
Increased Tactical Options
You can now tweak tactics even further, with options for players to interchange positions, more specific target man instructions and even time wasting!
Formation Panel on Match Screen
This is an easy way to see the formations of both your team and your competitor at the same time without having to pause the match, so in a live environment.
Virtual Player Contracts
When managing clubs at the lowest level, the pool of available talent is often a little thin -- this feature now allows you to offer contracts to "Virtual" players that the game generates for teams playing outside the football pyramid in the lower leagues or in your reserve or junior team and therefore give them an opportunity to play on the bigger stage.
Snapshot
A great new screen in the game that gives you a homepage of all of the info that you need as a manager -- budgets, forthcoming fixtures, a competition overview, team stats and lots more.
Key highlights
Key highlights are now instantly replayed for those managers who want to pick every move apart.
New Shirt Graphics
With licenses galore, there will be more real life kits in FM2005 than any previous Sports Interactive football title.
Man Of The Match News
A new regular news item giving feedback on the man of the match for youth & reserve games, as well as key first team matches.
Half-time team talks
Half-time team talks add the ability to tell your players individually or collectively exactly what you thought of their first half performance, via the tactics screen. Will you be able to keep your players motivated, or will you cause a collapse in the second half?
Board negotiations
Managers will be able to negotiate with their board of directors - not only for a better contract for themselves, but also for improved player wage budgets and increased transfer budgets or even stadium expansion. Be aware though, if you push too hard and don't reach the heights that the board specify, you'll soon be looking for a new job.
Player management
Manage players on a personal level. Unhappy players can cause huge morale problems for the whole squad and result in bad performances, so the new Player Interaction feature will help you to manage your team more closely.
New training system
A completely revamped training module simplifies training schedules and players' training progress, with your coaches becoming far more important members of backroom staff.
Referee profiles
With referee profiles and league tables, you can keep a close eye on how many yellow cards the ref looking after your Saturday match has given in the last few matches, which add an extra element to tactics of the game. Maybe hard tackling is not a good idea for this Saturday's match!
Position indicator (tactics)
A player position indicator will not only show you the best positions for your player and where to play on the pitch, it will also show player preferred moves for those players in your team. As well as this, the Player Positions display format has been upgraded, making it easier for the manager to pick the team.
New media elements
New media items and expansion of the media module have been implemented, including but not limited to, cup draw news and man of the match news.
