The general match engine seems a bit better in terms of how the game plays out. It does look a lot more like a real football match thats for sure.
Played it for a bit and it seems pretty much the same though. I hammer them into the ground then watch them score with their only shot on goal. Either that or there is about 8 goals a game. I'm still getting constant media garbage after every single game about controversial incidents too. My assistant doesn't seem to do team talks anymore and I can't see any mention of youth development being fixed so I think i'm going to leave FM for a couple of years now.
I don't really have the patience to play another season just to see if mess of 8.0.1 gets a little bit better, was hoping for something more instant.
