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

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"

    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).
  • kikirrin's avatar
    buenas tardes , tengo el problema que tengo el modo premium, lo conseguí arrancar pero desde la cuarta vez que abro la aplicacion no pasa nada, clicko y es como si no lo hubiera arrancado
  • RPGFan's avatar
    You could try to make the line up tool work for FM21 but given its outdated and from so long ago, do not expect any support I would think.

    There is a FM+21 here https://www.fmscout.com/a-fmplus21.html

    I would first use free version to see if everything works (only allows you to use program for the start year of season), seems sometimes not having right currency and language can cause an issue.
  • Conao's avatar
    I'm a bit confused. I have used the FM LineUp Tool with FM21 for a long time. I've been away from the game for over a year but I'm trying to go back to my save now. I checked if there was a newer version of the FM LineUp Tool but found a message saying:

    "The FM LineupTool is outdated and no longer supported.
    For FM21, 22, 23 and 24 there is a new and better tool available, called FM+"

    It clearly states that the new tool works with FM21. However, when I tried it, I got an error message while importing my squad (Column "Transfer Value" does not belong to table) followed by another message saying that FM+24 only works with FM24.
    After all, should it work with FM21 or not? Could this error have another cause? Is there an FM+21 version?
  • Sebacore's avatar
    I figure out the error. I had to switch my game language from English (US) to just English. It changes the header from Salary to Wage. Then it worked as expected.

  • RPGFan's avatar
    Its built in the program itself, if its up to date, should have up to date views.

    After launching program it gives two options : Fm filters and FM views, make sure you are selecting all available (including 23/19/18/youth) and you can see if wages column is appearing then.
  • Sebacore's avatar
    It is definitely a view issue, But i a, using the view that is installed with it. Anyplace to download the most current view?
  • RPGFan's avatar
    Strange its one of supported currencies, could be using wrong view, mine are working fine although I use "£"
  • Sebacore's avatar
    Wages don't seem to be showing up correctly. Using $ but they always show 0. I figure i am doing something wrong. Any ideas?
  • ahl0005's avatar
    nvm i fixed it. Had to change to pound (currency) and default skin

    I already wrote you via Discord (Resquart was my nickname) , and sent mail to your [email protected] and [email protected] mail adress'
    i want to purchase FM + premium licence key but PayPal is not supported in my country. I can't create a PayPal account and even my country is not in the countries list.
    I can't even see country phone number code (+90) in the list.

    Is there altervative method for payment? I can send you 6 Euros if you give me your IBAN number or maybe paying via Patreon? Please help me i really need this tool ASAP but even though i have 6 Euros i can't even pay. I hope you understand my situation.

    Kind regards.
  • Armageddoux's avatar
    I bought it last weekend, seems to work correctly even if it needs some more improvement (please localize roles and positions on tactic screen it's very painfull for non english people!!)
    I have made a french youtube video about FM+ 2 days after : more than 400 seeing at https://youtu.be/12dKtevuQjI
  • RPGFan's avatar
    TheDuke, no its only working on windows PC.
  • TheDuke's avatar
    Does this work on MAC IOS?
  • RPGFan's avatar
    coolestrock I do not think you can. And given how no one as far as I know, knows for sure how attributes correlate to match engine with 100% certainty, all tools will only provide approximations, but from using free version, its ratings do seem to correlate correctly in regards to team performance.
  • coolestrock's avatar
    Can we change the attributes , i have my own that i look for concerning positions , im sure in the old line up tool there was a screen where we could enter the attributes to look for
  • Nobnab's avatar
    @AndreasBW1987
    after a new installation, i have the same version displayed as before.

    I think it is the same
  • AndreasBW1978's avatar
    Can someone please tell me which version is currently available? The programme was updated on 4 April. But as a Premium user I have not received an update in the programme itself? My latest version is still 1.0.0.30. Is this still the current version?
  • kidz22's avatar
    Why can I only export 100 players from the game?
  • Alfral's avatar
    Well, it's been a week and I paid for something that I cannot even activate... It's frustrating...
