You can access a list of four dug-out commands by pressing the ‘B’ button and then pick and choose how you want your players to respond.

The 3D matches look extremely polished and the way your players respond to your touch-line commands can turn a match on its head. Fancy a mullet or a goatee? Or maybe some Presley style side burns? There are plenty of options to create a unique character and it does add to the overall experience. Your first job will be to select a manager the manager you create will be duplicated on the touchline and in news flashes throughout the game. Choose the full game and you’ll be in charge of all of the team’s affairs, choose fantasy team and you'll be able to build your own team from scratch. LMA Manager 2006 follows the same premise as the other games in the series. Throw in the option of shouting out orders to your team from the dug-out that can change the course of a match and you’ve got a football management sim that offers much more than just pages full of mind boggling stats. LMA Manager 2007 differs from many of the football management simulation titles thanks to its 3D match engine that allows you to see how your tactics are being played out on the pitch. Every year they throw something new into the equation and provide a deeper management experience that hopes to bridge the gap with the excellent Football Manager series. With the action packed Pro Evolution Soccer and Fifa 07 just around the corner, Codemasters have been consistently improving with their own yearly outing of footy actionwith their management simulation, LMA Manager.
