FIFA Soccer Manager is a 1997 football managing computer game developed and published by Electronic Arts by their EA Sports label. It was followed by the The FA Premier League Football Manager and the Total Club Manager series. A 97-98 update for the game is freely available from Electronic Arts' FTP.
One of the first games in the genre developed for the Windows platform, FSM included five playable leagues and all UEFA competitions, including around 7500 players.
be saved and reviewed later, FSM was also known for a complete stadium builder, where combining 300 different pieces allowed the creation of stadiums with over 300,000 seats. While the overall presentation was praised, the interface relied too much on submenus that could not only be reached outside the main section, slowing down gameplay. Also, when the better players retired, they were replaced only by average younger players, which harmed the possibilities of games over 15 years long, combined with the impossibility of joining a different club.
