I'd recommend it because of its matches and because of how satisfying it is to see Ashito start to read spaces and movements that he didn't even know existed before.
It's a good fit if you're looking for football, tactics and youth training.
What sets it apart from the usual prodigy striker is that Ashito arrives wanting to score and they turn him into a winger; your vision only takes off when you understand the entire field.
