I unironically think I’m pretty good at Football Manager. By this point, I really better be – I’ve been playing this game for anywhere between 200 and 400 hours a year, every year, since I caught the bug sometime around 2008. But then in each of those years I do always play as Manchester United, the team I support, and unlike the United of the real world, it’s easy enough to see things regularly going well with a bit of clever spending and tactical nous – in my last save, I just won the quadruple with United, alongside a full “invincibles” season in the Premier League.
