See here what’s new in 2008 version:

Pre Season Training centers

The managers have now the ability to select a training center in order to prepare their players for the new season. A good training center will make sure that the players will keep their form for a longer time in the upcoming season, develop better using their hidden potential and have less injuries and psycho problems.

Form has been added in Players’ attributes

It’s a new attribute that modifies a player’s psychical attributes. It depends on summer training, match participation and everyday training. So the manager has to find the perfect combination for each player.

Sponsors

Until now teams with good performance had to wait until next season in order to benefit from it. From 2008 version teams with a good season will benefit immediately by signing sponsoring contract with various companies. And this means a lot of extra cash for transfers and contracts.

New Training System

This is another important improvement. The interface is a lot friendlier and the managers have the ability to train their players in more areas controlling at the same time their condition and fatigue. For the first time is also possible to improve team’s cohesion and zone defending through training.

Ability to select database size

The user can now select to improve game speed or realism by loading the Big or the Small database.

Opponents Scouting

Before every match the managers will receive a scouting report about their next opponent with general info, evaluation, star players, offensive skills to watch out etc.

Name Search

As WBM database is getting bigger and bigger, this feature is very important in order to find a player.
