Gauging the mood of the supporters has been made far easier this year. You also have the option of siphoning your wage budget into your transfer kitty for that all-important extra million (or fiver if you're managing a Conference team). While the extra dough may prove invaluable in snaring your dream players, failing to deliver on your lofty promises will see you exiting through the back door more quickly than a burglar who's just triggered an alarm.

But be warned, this is a dangerous game to play.

The first thing that'll strike you is the natty skin overhaul and the smattering of neat touches at the start of a new season, which see you tweaking the dimensions of your pitch and haggling for extra transfer and wage budgets by promising your board you'll exceed expectations. This year's version feels very much like a spit polish of an already gleaming product, with many new additions welcome if not instantly noticeable.

Featuring all of the new features from the PC version - that's well over 100 additions for the number lovers amongst you - the game proves slicker and more detailed than ever before, but sadly lacks any genuinely cutting edge new features such as the excellent player interaction tools that set FM2007 apart from its predecessor. Just like last year's version, FM2008 takes another brisk walk down Evolution Street without ever deviating into Revolution Road. Right, now that we've got that out of the way, let's get down to business. No other management series comes close to matching its sheer depth, exhaustive attention to detail and impressive levels of realism. I know, I know, we say it every year, but that's only because it's true, so here goes: Sports Interactive's Football Manager series is the definitive football management experience there is.
