thanks :) I've thought about some Twitch stuff before; I don't know if I'd like to do something consistant (a 4+ hour stream a day is not something I can really do at the moment haha). But some one-off matches I think could be really fun
@@TheDeepLyingPlaymaker Yeah, the Twitch/streamer thing can be involved. The key is organization; when you do it (predictable to get viewers in), what you do (either fun or for a video). You seem very organized, so I'm sure if you have fun with it, you'll be good at it. Not trying to rope you into it, but I've seen many content creators use the footage streaming to add value to the YT videos (or in some cases, they simply do VOs on the stream). You take live/replayed matches and put them in your videos and we could watch you in process, is what I'm saying. I'm sure you're familiar with Zealand, him and Kevin, have a great formula. Maybe pick what you like and get some other inputs? Either way, you're awesome and I hope you have a great holiday.
I was hoping for a video like this. Top job as usual. Also would be nice to get a follow up at a later date to show us how us if and how you adjust to the opposition (maybe only for tricky matches?) and how you adjust during the match if things go wrong (or exceed expectations!)
Could’ve used this a few hours ago haha, just got done with my 7 game pre-season and gonna be starting my first actual game in-charge of Hoffenheim now. Great tips nonetheless!
Awesome, always a great refresher on the fundamentals. TLDR: previous match analytical data can help you diagnose issues in your tactic once your in season. I had the interesting realization after watching the previous games of dortmund to prepare for our champions league tie and noticed that the datahub/next opponent/ overview/ set pieces tabs advice on where your oppo is going to deliver their set pieces doesn't seem to be very accurate. ( i have pretty good analysts for reference, so i dont think its just their lack of talent). i have started doing it for the rest of my future opponents and have been coming up with the same issues. so now looking at 1 to two previous matches in the match analytical data and a notebook i can jot some notes down on whether i want to go short, target the back post with an overload or an iso to near or far posts. Might not be everyone's cup of tea every match, but for the continental cups where you need to be dialed in it could be super useful. I am going to start doing using it once we are 10 games in to look at my chance creation and defensive actions and see if we can find some improvements in the tactic.
this is such an awesome idea! i've dabbled in it a little bit, but I think going back and watching some highlights from your opponent's previous matches is super helpful. On that topic, I may poach your idea for a future video haha
Had a couple of ideas for future videos when you get to the end of your plans. 1. An explainer on using the information from the data hub would be nice and how it can help with match preparation or where it could hinder by providing reductive or useless data. 2. Showing how to analyze either yourself or your opponents previous match using the schedule/(a match)/analytical data/teams and how it can show you some really useful info, like opposition corners (and the linked highlight), opposition scoring chances, and really nicely, linked events of scoring chances. 3. Would love a deep dive into the set pieces i.e. what does it actually do in the game when you say out-swinger to edge of area, vs inswinger? if you set up a zonal marking strategy in the game, how does that actually perform? Not the typical OP set piece guide but a breakdown on what it actually does when you make a choice, similar to your player videos. Anyway love the channel, always look forward to your content.
just on out/in- swinging corners/free kick, Out= the ball is moving on a path that is away from the goal/byline In= towards the goal An extremely inswinging corner would be an Olimpico for example. A corner that is taken at such an angle that it bypasses all targets in the box and is scored directly from the corner flag. Idk if this is what you are asking for but if anyone reading the comments is curious 🤷♂️
@sam-rv8tp haha thanks i guess i left that one open to interpretation, no i mean for some of the not typical locations, most people do front or back post, but i was thinking about when you actually try ones into other regions like edge of area, what does that actually look like in the game, and is it possible to get effective routines beyond inswingers at each post. (i do know that alot of premier league teams are majority inswingers now but i wanted some variety)
I love all these ideas.... I mentioned it in another comment but I may "borrow" some of these ideas for future videos haha. I think creating your own Data Hub ideas could be really helpful
@@TheDeepLyingPlaymaker Glad to Hear it! I feel watching tape feels very in the immersive oeuvre you generally take with your videos so if i have any more ideas i will drop them in the future. I am very interested to hear your opinions on the set pieces as i am noticing some changes from the AI on their set piece defense routines in games but i am not sure if this is an actual change or an interaction with a players anticipation and decision making, where they switch from a zonal to a man mark as the corner comes up to be taken.
same way you can win most of the games even against top dogs- just keep reloading if thats your thingy 😉 but seriously, the big learning curve is to resist the temptation and suck up lost games and rise from the ashes, like any true football manager before your reign 😊
I always have two saves. The main save and a side save where I always jump into and test different things I randomly think of. I never want to disrupt my main save so I load the side save and experiment however much I want
i actually recommend doing something like this when doing a team interaction (like a team meeting); sometimes it's tough to gauge their reaction or how they'll take something haha
thats what im doing in friendlies, i like to experiment and see if everything works out, i dont really care whether we score loads or not, i want to see compact play and if it "clicks" colloquially said.
Strange. Does a FB on A suppose to go forward along the sideline, not to go forward toward the middle? An the contrary the inverted winger should go inside. I don't understand why you choose to modify the IW. Thanks for the perfect video again!
my guess is that the FB(A) saw there was a winger out wide (either the Winger, or IW) and decided to cut into the middle. But with the IW, they were getting in each other's way. I figure if the role was in Inside Forward, the FB(A) would stay further out wide. But I liked those half-space runs, so I decided on the Winger. Hope that made sense :)
Hey man, keep up the good work! Can you please let me know what are the best player roles for midfielders and attackers in a 4-2-3-1 system for scoring and creating chances? I am playing a possession / attacking tactic in Romanian first league and I feel that with the players I got, Mastantuno & Estevao on loan, I should be flying. Yet I only score 1-2 goals per game having a 65% possession. My striker is being played for his best attributes as PF on attack, the 3 behind him can literally play anything as they are 4-5 stars wonder-kids, while the 2 DMs can play any role needed. Thanks!
For the front four, try a playmaker as the 10, a role that keeps width (Raum, Winger, or Wide Target Forward), a role that cuts in (Inside Forward, Inverted Winger) and then a dedicated scorer for the striker (PF, AF, or Poacher). You want a lot of variety in your player roles that should make your attack unpredictable :)
@ thanks! Started scoring more with my nr 10 on AM attack lately. Can’t make IW work though, no assist or goals for IW they only seem to like IF only 😅 btw please include ‘pass into space’ in one of your videos as nobody seem to be using it or know how it works.
I think a little of both. He probably wouldn't do it as much if there was maybe an Inside Forward in front, but I like using the Winger role to encourage it more
is it possible to make central midfielders overlap in fm? so i'm using a 433 with my fullback as iwb(s) and ifb. i'm getting bored using a winger when my fullbacks are inverted. i tried double cm(a) with PI stay wider and run wide with ball, so far my tactics look like this gk: sk(s) rb: iwb(s) rcb: cd(d) lcb: bpd(d) lb: ifb dm: dm(s) rcm and lcm: cm(a) lw and rw: if(s) st: dlf(s) the cm did make an overlapping runs but only when they have the ball. any role suggestions for the cm? thinking about a mezalla before, but the role has a hard coded "move in to channel" which i don't really want that
Have you tried the team instruction "Overlap Right/Left" on the side of the Central Midfielder? I think that instruction along with the Player Instruction of "Stay Wider" could try to encourage more runs. Maybe even "Dribble Wide with Ball" could help as well. This is a really interesting idea though! Now you've got me curious haha
@@TheDeepLyingPlaymaker the description says it's most likely for the full backs. I tried to enable it and indeed it affects the fullback and winger mentality, nothing change for the cm. Maybe i'm gonna try mezzala with PI run wide as well. Yeah it's randomly come through my head after i got bored using a winger for width, so i was thinking like "hey, why don't we use the cm to go supporting wider areas and let my winger becomes inside forward so they don't need to stay wide all the time" 🤣
A similar process but more about refining your tactic. So adding in some player instructions maybe, or slightly altering player roles. But that is a good video and a topic I should talk about :)
But how can I tell if my tactics are good or bad? I can win matches because of luck or good players. How can I check if my tactics are good in their pure form?
I consider a tactic good or bad if they're doing what I want. For example, I've done tactics where I want to create a ton of chances. So let's say I lose a match 0-3, but create a ton of chances (and just happened to lose the match). I still think of it as a "good" tactic because the tactic did what I wanted: created chances. We're always going to win and lose, so thinking about what you want your tactic to do will go a long way to thinking about if it's good or bad. If you're curious for more, my video on "tactical philosophy" goes into this idea :)
I think I’d rather watch you play a full save than do one myself. The level of detail you go into is amazing.
Agreed. This dude would get so many followers/subs if he did Twitch.

Your channel is unique, in that, it's the only FM and ASMR (unintentional) crossover I know of!
Thanks!! I love that these videos could be considered unintentional ASMR haha
The first thing I do, is press like. Thats how good your content is 👍👍
that really does mean a lot thank you :)
You press like on the video even before the DLP says "Hello everybody and welcome". The quality of the rest of the video is already know! 💪
While the spam ads are still going 😂😂
This man is not wrong.
means so much thank you :)
I got a notitication for this and at first glance i read "Fixing your Tactic (In a Friendly Manner)" and it made me laugh lmao
that would be a video title Bob Ross would be proud of! haha

If you are an idiot (like me), you can reload the friendly games multiple times to test different approaches to your tactic
