Do any of these frustrations sound familiar? If so, FM+ is the tool you’ve been waiting for — it solves them all!

  • Conflicting staff ratings — Every coach gives your players different stars and advice. Who can you trust?
  • Contradictory screens — Quick Pick, Player Pages, Tactic Pages, Selection Advice… which one is actually correct?
  • Unclear best lineup — With so many opinions, figuring out your strongest XI takes way too long.
  • Tactical headaches — FM offers no simple way to compare tactics and see which ones suit your squad best.
  • Scouting disappointments — You finally land your dream signing… only to discover he’s a 2.5-star benchwarmer because your staff misjudged him.
  • New jobs take forever — Excited to manage a new team, but spend hours digging through data just to understand the squad.
  • Returning to old saves feels overwhelming — You load an old career and have no idea who’s who or what strategy you used.
  • Youth development confusion — Unsure which youngsters are worth investing in, you either overanalyze endlessly or waste time managing too many “just in case.”
  • Less time to play, more frustration — You want to enjoy FM and make progress, not get stuck in hours of tedious micromanaging.

Sounds familiar? Here’s the good news: FM+ solves all these problems and gives you back the fun, control, and excitement you love about Football Manager!



FM+'s top features
  • Lineup advice: Best eleven, bench, squad depth and best available
  • Tactic advice: Compare tactics and see which tactic gets the highest score for your players
  • Comprehensive star ratings: Players (both own & scouted) get a clear CA & PA star rating that is not subjective to any staff member, simple, good and trustworthy
  • Seperate page to manage your youngsters, see who's worth putting your effort in and how good they'll probably become
  • Load your scouted players into FM+ and get a trustworthy opinion on them, after signing them, their star rating will stay the same
  • Team info: Get familiar with a new team, or with an old save in the blink of an eye. FM+ shows you in a single page a summary of your team, who are the stars, who are the brightest youth prospects, who you should loan out and who you should offer a new contract.
  • This is a no-cheat tool, it doesn't use any hidden info like other editors, all information shown comes from values and attributes visible to the player. The tool automates what you can do in your head, on paper or in Excel in a much faster and more user friendly way

Can't get enough of FM+24? there is a premium version which will unlock more FM pleasure and game-time for you

Premium Edition

  • No season limit (Free version loads only data from game start year)
  • Import your scouted players
  • Support for managing National teams
  • Calculate best tactic for your team / Compare tactics
  • View World's best players and Next gen list
  • Create filter directly in FM for who to callup for your national team
  • Open player you are viewing in FM+ directly in FM
A premium license key is a one time € 5.99 payment (no subscription)
Before buying the premium version we strongly suggest you to try out the free version to check compatibility with your system and FM game. As FM+ is a spare time project next to a fulltime job and family life, we do not guarantee any support or refunds when things are not working as expected. That is why there is a free version to try out




How FM+ works
FM+ now uses exports made from Football Manager instead of directly reading the FM process Memory (like older FM+ versions did).
This might seem a bit more complex at first, but it comes with a lot of benefits compared to "reading from memory":
  • All players are available, also those who became Player/Staff
  • FM+ will keep working after FM has been patched, no update to FM+ needed
  • No-Cheat tool, FM+ is purely based on what you can 'see' as a player
  • A lot more stats accessible for FM+ to make the tool even more immersive and useful
  • FM+ is no longer dependent on the work of others or on the memory structure of FM
However a "quick load" option might be added in the near feature, now that it has been announced that there will come an updated version of the component that can read directly from memory

Supported FM Languages
Since FM+ now uses exports to show you the data (explained above), the language in which your FM is set is now important.
At the moment following FM languages are supported. (we might add extra languages in the future):

  • English
  • German
  • Spanish
  • Italian
  • Dutch
  • French
  • Portuguese
  • Greek

  • Current supported currencies:
    "HK$", "$", "€", "¥", "£", "₹", "₽", "₺", "₿", "฿", "₫", "zl", "kr", "DKK", "KM"

    Installed the free version, loaded my save (in 2024), received the message that fm+ is not usable for saves after 2023, uninstalled.
    Great job guys, at least conceed two seasons free so people get really addicted before ask for a premium, otherwise is just useless, not everybody wants to start a new save just to try a tool.
  • RPGFan's avatar
    check for updates both for the program or your computer, try and see if issue is resolved.

    Also make sure you are using the filters, language and currency supported by the program.

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to fix "unhandled exception has occurred in your application error?
    Thank you

    Hi Davy.

    I lost my file and link. And I tried using "retrieve lost key" button and after I entered the Invoice ID it just re-directed me to a server error page. Can you please help me?
  • Lenzar's avatar
    What a shame that so many very basic features are locked behind a paywall.
  • RPGFan's avatar
    Yeah you need to start new game free version only allows you one season i think.
  • almostmidnite's avatar
    This tool does not work for English (US) language. I have to use English (UK) for it to work properly.

    To get the scouting list to load properly you must change the SEARCH FILTER as well
    .
    Scouting -> Players in Range -> Load the FM+ All Players (New) (VIEW!) -> Select New search (on the right) -> Load the FM+ All Players (FILTER!)

    Yes, you must load the FM+ All Players (New) on VIEWS (left side dropdown) and on the FILTER (right side dropdown)!

    My in game year is 2025, and says its locked to only view Dec 31, 2023. This tool just seems pretty worthless if I can't even use the free version
  • RPGFan's avatar
    I tested the view and its working fine.

    If yours is not, it might be a currency or language selection outside of those supported.

    Also make sure to use the correct view on the squad rather than any other area.
  • lhadnam's avatar
    Anyone have a clue why the "fm+ player team (new)" view is no longer working when exported to the tool. I get the same error message as Frammis upload in his comment down here but I can't see any comments on how to fix the problem
  • ClaudeJ's avatar
    KeyNotFoundException error fixed : I've uninstalled the tool with a program that also clean up the registry and all left out files (Iobit Uninstaller in my case, but there are plenty other similar).
    Restarted my PC, reinstalled FM+, and it worked again.
    Cheers
  • ClaudeJ's avatar

    Tried to reinstall the tool and update my .net framework. No joy.

  • Nikitosta's avatar
    @PSV Same problem, did you solve it ?
  • ctequila's avatar

  • ctequila's avatar
    Are there any links to the tactics listed in the program? There is only one tactic in the game files and it doesn’t suit me

    Hi Davy, I have bought the premium version last year and everything was working fine until today, when the game says I do not have the premium license anymore and I cannot find the e-mail where it was sent. I do have the paypal receipt still to prove the purchase was made. What can I do in this situation? Cheers.

    I get this error!
  • RPGFan's avatar
    The only thing then, might be that you are using incorrect view, for example using one outside of the ones the program gives, or an incorrect one.
  • Richys's avatar
    Been using tool for months and never had a problem. Suddenly I'm getting error message saying the export I'm trying to load is invalid, despite not doing anything different to usual. I've noticed other users have had this problem, but none of their fixes are working (language,currency).
