WE ARE FOOTBALL puts you in the role of a football club manager and trainer, with the long-term task of building the club as well as shaping its team. The game includes a women’s football mode with the same broad functionality and its own distinctive gameplay elements. Rather than centering only on match results, it brings club operations into the routine: finances, sponsors, staff, organization, fan support and infrastructure all feature in its management toolkit.
Player development is a detailed part of that work. You plan training, weigh individual attributes and skills, and consider each player’s psychological profile alongside the personalities across the squad. Weekly progress brings negotiations and decisions, while matches use a ball-focused engine with text commentary. The scale of the challenge grows with the club, and building a side is framed as a sustained project rather than a quick route to success.
The format is designed for brisk sessions: a season can take a few hours, and the game supports both single-player and multiplayer, including shared or split-screen PvP. Its editor also lets players create leagues and clubs, adjust promotion and relegation rules, and choose men’s or women’s competitions.
