I haven't found any really good manager games. I mean, I guess Football Manager Touch 2016 could be good, but I never tried it because there's no way I'm paying €18 for a game that I already bought on PC. Also, there's Football Manager Mobile 2016 and it's €7,97. I also tried playing Top Eleven, but it was a really annoying experience for me.
However, I really enjoyed Dream League Soccer last year even thought it's not really a manager game. Still a really fun game to play and much better than FIFA to me. You can change kits, stadiums, buy and sell players, there are legends you can play with, but you don't have to. Anyway, I spent way too much time playing it and it's one of the best football games on the phone. Also, I don't remember that any IAPs were crucial for the game because I played maybe 20 seasons without ever buying anything.
Also New Star Soccer is great if you'd like to do a player career. It can get repetitive after 10 seasons and too easy after 3-4 seasons, but give it a try.
You can play 19 on ios if you have installed it before. If you are on android here is the play store link
