Top Eleven: Armchair Managers

Today, the world’s most-played online football manager game, Top Eleven, unveils its latest advertising campaign from Nordeus starring legendary soccer manager Jose Mourinho, alongside an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the shoot. The TV advert is set to premiere on Friday 9th September, just ahead of the weekend’s eagerly awaited Manchester United versus Manchester City clash, which sees Mourinho put his tactical prowess head-to-head with his fierce rival, Pep Guardiola. As Top Eleven’s brand ambassador, Mourinho features in the advert encouraging football fans to step-up and prove their own managerial skills this season. Since taking the helm of Manchester United this summer, Mourinho and his squad have been building up to the most anticipated Manchester derby in years. Undoubtedly, millions of football fans and ‘armchair managers’ from across the world will be ready to give their opinions on Mourinho’s strategies. But the ‘Special One’, who helped design a new training feature in the app, is challenging fans to create and develop their own world-class football club with Top Eleven. Created by Nordeus, Top Eleven is the most played cross-platform online football manager game ever with over 140 million players worldwide on Web, Android and iOS devices. In Top Eleven, players compete in league, cup and friendly matches with each other to prove that they’re among the best managers in the world. Winning a title doesn’t just revolve around playing a match; each manager has to prepare their squad by training them and devising a suitable tactic and formation, and even buying and selling players. Outside of the pitch, managers will have to improve their grounds to help their club’s performance and construct a stadium worthy of their name.
