Football Manager 2017: Everything You Need To Know
7. An Improved Fantasy Draft Element
The new Fantasy Draft from last year's game was a great addition, and this year SI have worked on it to add some key developments. Firstly, if you have no mates or prefer to play alone no matter what, you can play a Fantasy Draft against AI managers.
Those AI Managers also include some famous faces, like The Inbetweeners' Football Manager fan James Buckley (whose team name is genius). They'll have their own profiles and you can choose which you'd like to compete against. And of course you can mix human and AI managers.
They've also changed the starting budgets and introduced a mid-season Draft window so you can change up your squad and get rid of some of the rubbish you shouldn't have picked at the midway point.
Look out for more of a dedicated preview on the Fantasy Draft next week after I attend a special event at SI HQ. Not bragging.
