Football Manager 2022: 10 Teams To Manage First
7. Derby County
It’s often said by pundits and managers that escaping the Championship is one of the toughest challenges in English football, which is also something that can be extended to Football Manager. However, escaping the Championship while also trying to manage a 12-point deduction at the start of your first season due to heavy financial trouble, is a whole different ball-game.
This is the challenge facing Derby County this season, which, for those of you looking for a challenge, can make for an interesting one in the English second division.
You will have to pull the club out from administration before you can take control of your own transfers, which is no simple task. Even once this is done, though, you will still need to fight off interest from bigger clubs to keep some of the good young players currently in the team. Of course, if you prefer, you can sell these players on to help secure financial stability and build the team how you see fit. The choice is up to you.
