England are the best team in the entire world.

The training screen is a sort of coats.as-nets
session. A nice one-man Wembley session
would've been better!
have a training facility. The idea Is to control your
'A' team against your 'B' team. Your first team
contains all the players that would feature in real
life, and the second team contains mock-up players
to act as reserves, loan, and trial players. These
can be brought into the side at any time during
the season and if they are any good, their value
will begin to increase, so those million pound
youngsters like Robbie Fowler can now successfully
be achieved. You play these games
on a pitch reminiscent of the first
Sensible Soccer - hardly any sound
and no stadium.
There are actual in-game differences
to this new version. but only
small Ones. Your players' names
now appear in the top left-hand
corner of the screen, you can
now head the ball without ridiculously
diving about the place,
the crowd now jump up and
down like proper fans should.
when the players score they will
show their jubilation with their
arms, it's now a lot easier to
run around players, especially
if you're controlling someone
like Alan Shearer: and to top it
all off. with a quick press of
the joystick you can now
inform a player if he should
come and collect the boll,
or wait on the spot so if you
want to pass the ball out to
the wing, it will go to the
wing
The differences ore
merely cosmetic and
affect the gameplay minimally,
although if you
were to return to your
original game you'd miss
these slight changes an
awful lot,
Final word
If you're a real fan of Sensible Soccer. then this
Is an absolutely essential purchase. Please
keep me out of the 'it's not worth it' debate,
because there will always be someone who
believes all these features should hove been in
the original - which is probably true
If you're a
real fan of
Sensible Soccer,
a then this is an
absolutely
essential
purchase
