Great video. A suggestion I have is maybe you could do a series going through the different personalities and see how mentorship affects them. Could help see which players are a lost cause and which ones could be saved
Love these random countries involved. Would love to see an experiment dedicated completely to Africa. Maybe a "3 team versus" experiment. African football always has a special place in my heart. And 10k very very soon. Rooting for you mate 💪
I've been wondering about when a foreign player has no interest in learning the language, does that actually have any bearing on his performances or not? I need an FM experiment legend who can answer my question!
My name is Siphelele and I am deeply offended by you laughing at my amazing name 😂😋 Unambitious is an interesting one, I see lots of people immediately ditch youth talents just because they're "unambitious."
Suggestion for a new challenge - wonderkid squad starting in the prem but all with a current ability of 1. Club with transfer embargo but great facilities, see how far they drop and come back and how the squad progresses etc.
ok, think I have mentioned before - have not had good experiences with Unambitious kids. They just don't develop that well (didnt know that they can still have 12 Professionalism. Learned something new today). After 24yo, just cut your losses and move on. ...btw, i have bad experiences with Mentoring too. The mentors got their Personality-s "lowered". A Model Citizen kid became Resolute immediately upon mentorship. I had abandoned mentoring nowadays ... all in all, this is another interesting video. Thanks as always~! 😅
In my experience it's not the worst personality out there, but if you get someone whose 100/160 in ca/pa, odds are good they aren't getting past 130...
That 70% barrier showing up yet again that you've revealed a couple of times in your other videos. Seems like it can only be broken by playing regular time in one of the big leagues. To me it's a pretty bad personality and I avoid such players or if I have no other choice mentoring them as soon as they join the club (with very underwhelming results)
Not sure if it's been done. Create two players, one with horrible personality but max potential. The other with perfect personality but potential let's say 165. And we see who has the better career
@@jayhuahua saying it here now - if the "horrible" guy has no PAD (Professionalism/Ambition/Determination), the 165 guy is gonna do better, all other things been equal.
do a video about me.ambition.20 luck...minus zero..injuries..minus zero...ability..mmm id say 175...potential..i always use my POT..😅😅.good vid as always bro
Southgate needs to play FM to understand football logic, like how playing inverted everything-s means your left side would become blank, etc. But, hey, what do I know? *shrugs 🤷♂

This might be one of the best comments ivehad. I love this. I might start doing this in some of these experiments 🤣👍
🤣this gave me a good laugh 👏

This is something I want to progress to once we're through the personality types. Plus mentoring requires more interference from myself

It's a tricky one as the game only has South Africa as a base league. Otherwise I'd love to get amongst it

Hmmmm I'm not sure how to integrate that, but a very interesting concept. I'll do some research and see if I can work it out 👍

Why is your name rob then?
Apologies Siphelele, Please forgive me.

This is already in progress. Slow as I have to manually sim and remove youth candidates each year

Working on a lot of logistics for mentoring
In siphelele the p is alone it not ph
Really? Ahhh awks
In my experience it's not the worst personality out there, but if you get someone whose 100/160 in ca/pa, odds are good they aren't getting past 130...
They performed better than i expected based on previous tests in different formats
You need to row a dice to decide the nationalities for future experiments)))
As in assign a nationality to a number beforehand? I need 5 and theres only 6 options on a dice, seems like admin for admins sake lol
@@jayhuahua 6 options- 6 confederations, did not think further lol :D
btw ...whats franks ability at now 🤔
Frank? Was a player here called Frank or are we talking about my woofer?
Kevin Knopper Canada legend
Indeed big K Knopps
Lesssgoo 🔥
1st today my guy. Always a consistent representative in the comments.
🇿🇦🇿🇦 appreciate the addition of a South African ❤
Gotta make sure there is plenty of representation

Yep, hit the nail on the head. Personality plays a part for sure and it's interesting to see fluctuations and how progression can vary wildly

This idea is literally in the works of sorts. In the edit. Be coming on Friday if I can turn it around in time

do a video about me.ambition.20
luck...minus zero..injuries..minus zero...ability..mmm id say 175...potential..i always use my POT..😅😅.good vid as always bro
Lol minus zero? So just zero 🤣
Is the usl in football manager... because maybe that could fix the american issue
Yes it is, but imnot sure if it works as it should with the american systems in place
England are shit in the euros.
Played awful and uninspiring but through as group winners. If we sneak through the tournament and win in this fashion I'd take it
