Create a Road to Glory Career mode
I'm doing a Wrexham road to glory campaign in manager career mode and i'm underwhelmed by the lack of options to realistically build up a club from the lower divisions to the Premier league. I'm not simply talking about signing the best players by starting out with hundred million dollars. But i want to mimic what happened with Manchester City and Wrexham. I want to be able to see my fan base dynamically increase as my club reputation build. As my fan base gets bigger, I want to build up my stadium to hold more fans and thus increase revenue.
From there i want to build up my other club infrastructure like Training facilities, Youth Academy, and Club offices to expand the club fanbase globally and thus become a European powerhouse like Mancity is now. The way manager mode is now, you get bored of it so quickly after the 2nd season. But in the Road to Glory mode, you can directly control matches or let the ai play or sim entire weeks.
But at the heart of it is the story of your club - how you grew your fan base by winning the FA trophy in League Two before you won back to back to back promotions to land in the Championship, all the while you managed your club finances by training up young stars and selling them to big clubs to expand your stadium and club facilities over 3 seasons, just so you could be financially viable before stepping into the Premier League. You might struggle for a while, stagnating in mid table while you slowly build out your squad, but eventually, you grow large enough to attract the best coaches and scouts to build the ultimate team to conquer Europe and the world club cup in America, propelling your club to the most prestigious of all time
