The time it takes to finish an entire season, you can grow a beard or watch it grow. Match processing at a snails pace.
Also there is no "own a club" mode, "found a new club mode" and a "no sacking mode".
The players glide across the football pitch like bowling balls.
Why this issue was not addressed?
EA sports is way ahead in the 3D department, just check Fifa Manager 06 and 08 - not to mention 09.
However FM 11 is jam packed with features that puts the EA management franchise to shame.
Features such as talking to players in real-time, a set piece editor
coach assessments of a players ability, in depth press interviews
and specialized training.
Comparing Football manager 11 and Fifa manager 11, I should say that both are a big disappointment in all departments. It seems the people behind them don't have a clue in what they are
doing.
Bottom line: if you don't mind being sacked and to start all over again from the beginning, give FM11 a shot.
