Football Director DS — About this game
Football Director DS puts the decisions on the management screens. Choose a club from the English leagues, inspect the squad and finances and select an eleven, formation and tactics. Transfers and contracts affect the available team over the season, so look at the full squad before spending on another attacker. Matches are presented as text events and results rather than a controllable pitch view. Start with the tutorial active, read the dashboard bulletins and check the next fixture. A modest tactical adjustment is easier to evaluate than changing the entire lineup after every result.
