Online Modes

Changes have been made to the Versus Mode in Football Manager 2023, offering an all-time leaderboard and also allowing you to easily export your data at the end of each season.

Within Versus mode and Fantasy Draft, you’re now able to set the number of substitutes you want to use in the game

In online Career Mode, the FM team has made it easier for you to join a friend's game when your fixture is complete, allowing you to scout them before your next heavyweight clash.
