Oh yeah! Got my copy today and I must say the new features really work well!
The team talk is very effective, I was 2-0 up and it gave me the choice to say "Dont get too complacent" which really made my team defend well while also trying to get in more oppotunities for Henry and Reyes.
Theres quite a few other features like the 'Manager Snapshot' which you can view by clicking on your manager name. It has lots of info on one screen, everything you need to know like your next opponent, league position, transfer budget etc.
This game has so much depth it's unbelievable.
Go buy it.

Are they not fake players?
In the past if a player has been greyed out in Champ/Football Manager, it's because they've just been made up to make it seem as if teams have a lot of depth. They're not real players, and so you can't sign them.

Greyed out players are players who are in clubs that aren't on your database. (if that makes sense...)
I always end up with a lot of greyed out players I've never heard of before in my reserves and U18s before either are going to play a match.
It's like someone's picked them up off the street.

NOOO! My CD drive isn't reading any discs, meaning no Footie Manager. :(

Umm... Doesn't anyone know that was a new feature? Being able to offer contracts to 'virtual (greyed out) players'?

Damn, this game is haaard.
Damn straight, qualified for the Champions League by the skin of my teeth after a second leg 1-1 draw away to Brondby took the game to penalties.
And despite L Garcia being my first choice PK taker, he must have refused to take one since second choice Cisse went first. Probably fairly realistic however, given he missed one in the first leg and played at a solid 6/10 level for the preceding 120 minutes.

This is so annoying! I have to wait until next week for my new CD drive to arrive before I can play FM! :(

Is this a new thing, then?
They've always been made up in the past.

Im not too sure, but thats what I always thought because im sure in FM2005 I wanted to buy a player from PSV and he was greyed out for some reason. Infact, most of their team was greyed out. :S
