The Football Manager 2021 player took their simulation in an entirely different direction. Rather than choosing to simulate the ESL itself, they considered what would happen if the ESL continued, leading to all of the ESL clubs being banned by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), and each club’s respective players becoming free agents. In practice, the player financially crippled teams within Football Manager 2021 so that they could no longer be competitive within their respective leagues.

The results were exciting to consider, with the Football Manager 2021 player sharing the results of the Premier League and the Champion’s League over the next 25 years. In the Premier League, Everton and the Wolverhampton Wanderers won early championships. However, by 2026 a new dominant power was established. Southampton would go on to win 15 championships in 20 years. Behind it, Leicester would be Southampton’s biggest rival and oft runner-up.
In the Champion’s League, a rotation of FC Bayern, Borussia Dortmund, and Paris SG would win a majority of championships: Eight, eight, and six respectively. FCP and Real San Sebastian would claim the remaining three years’ trophy. Based on these hypothetical results, some fans may now be wishing that the Super League had gone through after all.
Football Manager 2021 is available now on Mobile, PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
