Complete Guide to Training in Football Manager
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- The final installment in our training series brings it all together and lays out the complete tutorial, guide, or whatever you want to call it for how to train players in Football Manager. From the preseason to the final big match and from your U18’s to the senior team, this is how to train in FM. I think I have run out of poetic ways to tell you this will make your players develop more and help you win more games. I FOUND ANOTHER ONE LET’S GO!
In all seriousness, huge credit to the training team for helping me put this together. They both emailed me separately having done preliminary testing and once we organized a system to answer training questions, I feel like we put it all together to make people’s time on Football Manager more enjoyable. It helps develop wonderkids, which for me makes my time more enjoyable.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

10:00 HUGE TIP CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: you can add a fatigue column to your squad and selection screens and have it in a place where you can actually look at it before a match
I usually just hover over the heart in the team selection screen, it tells you there
That’s amazing thank you. Feels obvious now I think about it, but FM is full of these little things you’d never think about.
6 injuries in three weeks of pre-season with your tips! Niceee!!
I implemented it myself instead of the download version 2 weeks into the preseason, I got zero injuries. In L1 with 2/ star coaches and not great physics. Did you implement it all properly with the automatic adjustments, getting rid of individual training and keeping workload under medium?
@@TheFazer1992 I think the Problem is the Automatic Intensity....this doesnt consider Things Like Played Matches and so on...you can have a Green Heart with High Injuryrisk ...so the Key in my Eyes are good Physios und Scientists,since i adjust the Workload biased on their Recommendations i have nearly Zero Injuries
You have to micromanage the training workload to have it at medium
Lmao
LOL😂😂😂😂
I followed the full schedules for my 2nd season, after a league title with Oviedo in Spain. After 31 matchs, i won 29, 2 draws, beaten only twice in UCL. This works like crazy, even for my B team, currently 1st in the 2.Liga. Thanks a lot for the amazing work !
I got back to back promotions as Plymouth from League One to Premier League using the Zealand training. My team averages were all middling or below average across all attributes, and we lost about 5 games across both seasons. It's crazy how much those attribute training boosts up your game.
I consider myself fairly good at the tactics side of the game, and I put a lot of work into keeping the squad happy and cohesion high, but I saw a crazy jump in performance when I started training the way this video series recommended. Honestly to the point where the game has almost felt too easy.
Still got hammered 6-1 in our first game in the Premier League against Man City, though. :')
Premiere league is so broken. No matter how good my team(Lincoln) gets. I still get hammered by united by at least 4 goal difference(15 - 1) once.
Same here! I love min-maxing and making sure everyone is happy, gets enough play time and whatnot but the only thing I just couldn't get a grasp on was training and I must admit these videos have had such good results on my team it's amazing.
A correction: Player Traits Does NOT take up CA of players, Footedness and conflicting Positions (eg nat RB-ST will take more CA than CB-DM) also the Major Chunk is the jump from Competent to Accomplished (14 to 15 position Rating) the only thing traits will do is 1 obviously make them play differently (maybe not good so doesnt Dev as good) 2 take up training time teaching
If you really want to maximise your training for winning games, you need data. I always leave the two Friday morning slots open in my schedules until I get the opposition report. Open it, read it, embrace it. Your analysts will tell you how and where they score and concede.
They score a lot of headed goals from corners? Put in a defending corners on Friday morning. They concede a lot of through balls? Attacking movement. You can specifically target areas of weakness or strength to exploit or shut down. There's no such thing as a training schedule that fits all teams all the time. You've gotta be more dynamic than that.
Gigachad
We understand how attacking/defensive movement works, but if for example a team is reported to concede a lot via crosses from left wing, would an attacking wings training makes sense?
This training schedule IS really good, especially for the people who just wants to plug 'n play. It can work just fine, but it is a passive way of playing. Being active when playing tweaking training, like you say here, or making slight tweaks to your tactic or using OI's depending on what your analyst says and tweaking the tactic during game depending on what you see, will always grant better results once you have learned how to do it efficiently. It takes some time, but it will make you a better football manager player.
If they concede alot via crosses from the left wing, you can train attacking wings. You can tweak your tactic to focus play down the left. If you use an inverted winger or forward on the left, try using a left wing back and let them do overlaps on the left. You can change the inverted winger/forward to a regular winger ( might need another player who is left footed) and tell him to cross the ball more often. Be sure your crosses are set to be low, if your attacker is small. Float them if he is tall ect. There are many ways of doing it. Choose one. See how the game unfolds. If your first choice isn't enough, try something else or add more.
Rant- 7:36 from 'Evidence based FM'- General Atk, Def & Match prac are the best training + Resistance... all other variations of specific Atk, Def, tech, work on a lot less attributes with the same end result. Like 99% of games the on screen descriptions don't match what is happening in the code.
There's no difference swapping the sub group training blocks. Ball transition, penalty training has no effect on attributes as well... Just filling everything with Attack, Defence, match prac will boost stats the fastest + physicals + Def shape & Atk movement
+ Training intensity does a very small increase in attributes. The more training sessions blocks is what matters.
What exactly are you saying? This schedule gives me waay to many injuries, any chance you could share yours with me?
@@xawee7254 just set the intensity to physio recommendation every week, but
Your physio need good stat
Hey Zealand. So I've watched your videos. Applied your training schedules, gotten 4,5 star coaches minimum, with a light to average load, praised the h3ll out of my players training, played a classic 4 2 3 1, signed Karim Adeyemi, Calegari, Sven Botman, Maxemce Lacroix, Nicolla Barella, Youri Tielemans, Dusan Vlahovic, Lorenzo Lucca, Nicolla Rovella, Samuele Ricci, Luke Thomas, Dominik Livakovic. Kept players like Tierney, Martinelli, Ødegaard, Gabriel and Smith Rowe. Right now playing Livakovic, Thomas, Gabriel, lacroix, Calegari at the back, tielemans and Barella in the midfield, martinelli, ødegaard and Adeyemi with vlahovic on top. Had back to back invincible seasons in the prem, won 2 FA cups and 1 Champions League. Right now at the 5th game in season 3. Have lost 4 games total. No cheats whatsoever. Where do I go from here? Where to strengthen the team? How to keep it challenging? P.s to dollar content, love the humour.

@@thargoff Thanks. Forgot about that one lol.
The senior team one doesn't have non-steam link, it only links to the steam workshop page.
@@ridwanadit It may not have a non-steam link. In that case people need to plug in the individual training schedules themselves, which isn't hard to do. Just have to watch the video and plug along side him.
@@martinslvsten428 True, I did plug it myself while watching the video, it's just there's no non-steam link there, hahaha.
Thank you, Zealand! This guide helps me understand the training part better (which was a mystery to me until now). Keep up the good content!
I would like to add that mentoring can give younger players traits that the older players have without having to train them and as far as I’m aware doesn’t take away from their training. I love doing this with my midfielders and the plays one-twos trait
thank you zealand you really helped me with this series thanks with all the effort you went through to give us this mini series
Another good vid but it's once again focused solely on the minority full time big league clubs in the game. The vast majority of the playable leagues and 9/10 added custom databases are parttime clubs (semi pro or even amateur). Even Z plays LLM so perhaps it's time for an addendum to the series focusing on part time training schedules too because not everybody is as good as Z getting out of these leagues :p
After following Z's advise in this series I think for part time/LLM saves, the main priority is winning and not developing so focus mainly on getting your boosts in to help you win.
For me it's basically get your match prep boosts in, then sprinkle an overall/outfield and the odd team bonding to keep moral/team cohesion high, especially if you have a high turnaround of players.
Hope that helps
this was also going to be my question the for the answer back Josh😊
Zealand with a Celtic shirt on. 😍🍀
Question: Should I use the pre-season schedule during the mid-season break as well?
I do for 1-2 weeks and then revert to the main one match per week.
He has a schedule you can download for international breaks
Absolutely yes, Z did use it in his winter break, but depending on how long is your winter break, try not use it all on pre-season schedule
@@SamClayton1994 he probably means winter break or the world cup break in the first season
i ended up adapting the pre-season schedule into a mid-season break schedule, replacing half of the physical sessions with the blue general sessions for attacking / possession / defending etc
The best tip that actually helped was to subscribe to your channel. After I did that my players never get injured and their fitness is always high!
In what Training Unit do you recommend putting Wing Backs? As your training doesn't target Dribbling and Crossing, like the "Attacking Overlap" and "Defending From the Front" sessions do.
love that you have a celtic top on. an international club for the people
Yo Zealand, I've just finished watching this Playlist on training, want to say a massive THANK YOU, I thought it was excellent, and I have to say you've re-ignited my passion/enthusiasm for Football Manager, which has been waning somewhat recently, although I have been playing this game in one form or another since the original Domark Championship Manager from the early 90's. I will definitely be using this guide, now if only there was someone who could explain how to use/understand the Data Hub info !!!👍👍
one big question : what training recommendation for the semi-pro or amateur team who trained just 2-3 times a week instead of full week ?
If you are in England just schedule against u23 premiere teams. It will earn you a lot of money and you can often get 2 of these every week. Just invite 30 random trialists and let them play all these friendlies. I did this from tier10 until i go Pro in League 2. End of season and preseason you can schedule dozens of games they all are big earners. Its like 5k-20k profit for each game depending on stadium.
Strangely enough I have actually had fewer injuries since I hit that subscribe button...
8:32 That mic hitmarker got me
I seriously don't understand what they were thinking when they replaced % match sharpness and fatigue with those silly little icons. Why? Who benefitted from it?
Anyway, thanks for this series, got me itching to start a new save, can't wait!
I think that it is supposed to add to realism. In real life players don't have a percentage of fitness on their foreheads, but only a descriptive info from them or the fitness staff.
This is great Z, thanks for the effort, hopefully still works on FM21
Esteban is the best FM youtuber
Yo, thanks for all the videos! Helped me a lot to quickly learn the basics... started a new save with Magdeburg in the German 3rd League and should actually have won my first official game - DFB Pokal against Hoffenheim lol. Engine seemingly bugged out and disallowed an offside corner goal which from my knowledge clearly wasn't offside. Ended up losing 3-4 in penalties after leading 3-2, oof. Still, way better result than i would have gotten without your coaching, so thanks!
Oh... and i feel like stats lie for certain players or there is a lot of luck involved. My supposedly best striker hasn't scored once in the complete preseason and pokal match despite getting plenty of chances and having the physicality and stats to win headers. Meanwhile my Inside forward with more than a star less frequently sets up goals or just randomly outdribbles everyone for the solo effort haha.
Stars are definitely a lie. They can be super misleading about which players are actually better or worse. With attributes, I've had strikers with 18+ in all the key attributes and they can't score a goal to save their life, meanwhile a 13 finishing sub is score hattricks off the bench regularly. Sometimes it's just a matter of the player profile not quite fitting with the tactic even though on paper it looks like they should, and sometimes it's the hidden attributes that affect that sort of thing.
Also, sometimes FM just be like that. Despite improvements in the last few editions, strikers still miss FAR too many 1v1's, wingers and fullbacks still don't square the ball to the open player at the back post regularly even with high teamwork, decisions, and vision. Try adjusting the player instructions/roles to see if that helps with the striker not scoring, then make adjustments to the tactic overall, then maybe just wait until they've reached familiarity. The more time you spend with the players the more likely they can actually put your tactics into practice.
I started a new save with Lyon recently and had a very similar thing. My keeper seemingly just gave up at halftime and just stopped going for balls that were closer to him than the striker and they scored a hattrick to come back and win 4-2, meanwhile my strikers were missing clear cut chances (Xg was something like 2.7 for me vs 1.02 for them). Needless to say I wasn't happy.
Very nice indeed, looking forward to this one!
Would you recommend a pattern of rotation with the schedules to achieve certain development gains or is it just a matter of stamina management during the season?
I try to have separate sessions for the u18s to really push the physicals up.
Hey! Don't know if you have already gotten your answer but assuming you haven't, yes you should. Players are usually little bitches and tend to complain if there's something they're not training at all. So it's always better to rotate between training schedules (in one of the videos of this series he actually gave two regular season training schedules you should rotate). Plus you'll be getting boosts and increase on a wider range of stats.
Also, you should rotate between trainings of the same "family". I, for instance, every two weeks change my usually "Defending from the front" to "Defending Engaged" and leave it like that for two weeks and will usually rotate between the two as they are the ones that match my tactics the most. I do the same for attacking and technical trainings.
Hopefully this was of any help to you! If not I apologize for the long comment 😅
You look like one of the four Daltons. Liked the series though, thanks!
Celtic Top on for his video being released on the day of rangers biggest ever final. Love it.
Zealand sir, can I just copy and paste these for FM23?
The accurate of how to train footballers in Football Manager for past, present, and future.
Great video as always. You mention that physicals improve more at a younger age. Should I focus on adding physical based individual focus on my youth team players?
In my experience, its very easy to go overboard with physical training even for young players. They then train much worse overall and complain. I have a bunch of decent U19 players in my save except they suffer from strength 1. Despite putting all of them on strength focus for a season, they only went up to 4 at the most while being unhappy and stagnating in other areas.
I have a suspicion that individual training is mostly ineffective if they already train enough of that attribute in team training
Your training setup you have uploaded made my valencia team injury prone, the second i stopped it the team was resting properly, and i just let my A.M deal with it
They have to go through the whole preseason in order to withstand the training, it always comes in below average on injuries for the league
@@ZealandonYT I found Out that a good Medical Staff is Key to Withstand injuries.
“The Book of Zealand” a tactics bible 🙏
Yet another great video! Do these same training sessions also apply to the FM on Mobile? They differ a lot. They’re set up differently and are nowhere near as in-depth. Maybe the principles remain the same?
Loves this series. One thing I saw that wasn’t mentioned was a warm weather training camp during the season. Does this have any positive effects?
Keep the videos coming please
first of all thanky for all the work!
i find it hard to understand how the players are able to withstand your really exhausting training schedules since mine always get injured even when they have sharp matchfitness, low fatigue and a medium workload, mabe it has to do with my sportscientists, since i only got two with a total rating of 25?
This Schedule only works when your Medical Staff is Top Tier
Quality shirt
One aspect I did not see you comment on... In the Training section under REST, the physio can recommend a lesser intensity than the automatic. Do you follow their recommendation or do you ignore it and let the Auto set a higher intensity than the Physio recommends.. Without much hard data, I tend to have fewer injuries when I follow their recommendation but have no idea what I sacrifice in return.
You are right.
With only the automatical Settings i have way more injuries than when i follow the Physiorecommendations.
But Here it is extremely...extremely...have i Said extremely?...Important your Medical Staff is excellent.
Their Skill should have a 18 at a Minimum....i have with the Chiefs 6 Physios and 3 Scientists..all at 19 or 20 and following their Recommendations decreased injuries and Fatigue a lot.
But this only works when you dont forget to readjust the Levels every week....and Check the Medical Status every week on every Player
Well, you can add to the statistics for this training, four 4 weeks injuries in pre season 😁
Been making my way through all these videos as an FM newbie, recently watched one where Zealand said that having youth players in the senior squad to take part in first team training is much better for their development vs being in the youth squads and that unless a youth player is playing at least 70 minutes in a game they shouldn't come on at all to give them the best development.
Now the youth players shouldn't be in the senior squad and the player needs to only play 15 minutes of gametime to develop? 🙃 confused as all hell.
15+ min to get a match review.
Better match score (review) = better development. Longer playtime usually mean better chance for your team to get a good score.
Better training = better development, but if you are not using them then don't pull them from training.
Instead just let them train with the first time, so they get trained by the a squad trainers rather then "just" the youth trainers. Who generally is worse.
If a player's position/role/duty is just set to a general position, surely the game will look to see which role/duty you have assigned to that position in the formation(s) in the Tactics section (and whether you have an individualized role/duty set for the player in question), and the player will already receive training for the position/role/duty defined in that location, without needing to have a role/duty defined in the Training section?
Not in my Experiences.
You have to Set it...without He doesnt Work on specific Traits needed for His Role
Hi Zealand, Why the third day is suitable for intense training? Those players are still tired that day.
Watch the whole series, especially the pre-season one, and the third one, "actual best training". It is explained.
I tend to listen to my Sports Scientists in regards to training intensity after matches. This is especially helpful if your best player(s) tend to get injured a lot over a season or are older and are already playing at or around their peak CA.
Ive run tests on this using Tottenham. Harry Kane, as good as he is, gets injured a lot over the season. So I did 10 runs each using either the SS advice and not using this advice.
Kane got injured around 35% less in the saves where I used their advice. In fact injuries as a whole were WAY down when you listen to the SS training advice.
The only issue that I noticed was that some of my younger players did not develop as well as there were many days when they were at 1/2 power on training after games. I didnt quantify those results but it was somewhat noticable on playera under the age of 24.
How to get feedback from the sport scientists?
@@tenderballz5561 medical centre or rest in training tab
@@TheFazer1992 Got the Same Results
But better a little slower Development as a Player that is injured half of the Season
Overall then He developes slower when He is Always injured
So, I have been watching your videos retroactively cause I just returned to FM after a few years off.
Your training videos are great and I definitely abused them with a few mods here and there...however...
Since I just want to play games and games, I kinda forgot that the AI catches up to my tactics and the fitness heart might be pulsating green but the fatigue is a all time low.
I played around with the tactics and beat the AI, success.
My wonderbread in all this, with your training and I am quoting you "You do not need the rest sessions besides the ones that are forced in due to home/away game etc.", since many of my players have low fatigue, I was asking myself, why did he remove all the rest sessions since obviously with all the training, the cups, the champions league the country league, players are just not going to make that ti0ght schedule without rest. Naturally you can manage it player by player, a little micro management but it probably would not hurt to give the team and afternoon off now and then, what doo you think? Maybe hit the Zoo, or perhaps the beach or just lay around and play FiFA...
A day off once a month is ok, after a good match perhaps
@@ZealandonYT So strict lol
Someone needs to put these training schedules in a post on the subreddit. It's getting harder to keep track of them.
Zealand, can you add chapters if possible to videos like this, I'm looking for a certain bit of information and totally forgotten where it sits since I first watched the video. Thanks.
Ok so this absolutely destroyed my squad pre season, i had like 15 injuries after four weeks and got absolutely battered in the league as i had no first team players left.
Do you use a "realistic injuries" mod? Maybe from the "Increase Realism Megapack" by Daveincid?
@@AlexDeAustria no, just vanilla. Not sure what went so wrong!
@@ZoobieDoodie well I use that mod and when I tried a similar schedule, I got 3 or 4 long term injuries in the first few days. So I thought maybe you have the same...
@@AlexDeAustria yeah i thought i was just getting unlucky, but by the time of the first game i had no squad left, and all out for weeks at a time. Maybe i added the player position focus too early? I will have to re watch.
@@ZoobieDoodie if you mean the specific player role - I think it's very important to train that all the time.
But player traits, the additional focus and the weaker foot can probably wait a little.
Still had too many injuries.
sometimes i move promissing u18 to my mains squad because it has 2 possible advantages. My main staff is better than the under 18 staff and i can put them in a mentoring group. So i do this a lot if a promossing player has a bad personality
Liked for Celtic top
Question: if you have a few older guys around with good character mainly for mentoring, would it not make better sense to put the mentor in the U18/U23 squad to mentor the youngsters than call up the youngster? I'd assume training is less important for the mentor as they're probably over the hill anyway
If you move 1st team player to reserves they get angry. Its easy other way round
yasss come on the hoops love the top zealand
My youth players are complaining about too much strength training - what should I do to counteract this?
nothing
Love the top 💚🍀
OMG, i realize we all have a past, but just found an fm20 video of yours (player traits) and, besides great content as ever, you look like a 15 year old kid xD xD
what a kit zealand😍
Great top 🍀
How do B-Teams that are in non playable leagues affect this? My B-Team has no matches. (Somewhere in a bavarian league)
Where are the schedules? He said they were linked in the description but I cannot see them anywhere.
Of what value is it to gain "match boosts" to attacking movement if most of your attacking players have shit/mediocre values for anticipation, OTB and decisions? Surely it would just be better to include more sessions that might actually help them to increase their base values of the relevant attributes over time? On the other hand, a team whose attacking players all already have very high values for the relevant attributes might not need the boost - unless they're up against an evenly-matched team whose defenders have high values for the defensive shape attributes.
Where are the wonderkid trainings? Link isn’t in description anymore
I don’t think traits count towards overall anymore, noticed that when messing around in the pregame editor
So where exactly are the wonderkid blasters schedules? Because they're not in the description it seems.
Question: in the Break-Section there are also the Recommendations of your Physios....my Physios are pretty Good (19-20)...what should i Stick for...the Recommendations or the automatical Settings?
Zeeland! This guide feels a little out of date/ not well tested. I hear plenty saying certain things don't make sense... I get tons of injuries using this.. Coudl you make a new well tested training guide? one perhaps without the best facilities on the planet?
Celtic top on the day rangers play the europa league final very disappointing Zealand
i play on sundays, but that bloody "match review" module is not selectable on mondays.....
bug in the game?
what could i best replace it with?
is there a way to keep a training scheduling auto selecting weekly, or do you have to choose it every single week in the calendar
Pedantic bar steward I may be but if a player is knackered, should it be that he has a _high_ level of fatigue?
For some reason, when I set this up and use the Preseason Training, all my individual workloads are "Heavy" and I cannot get them to "Medium" without changing the intensity off of automatic. It seems like that should not be happening...?
How often would you recommend going through and changing the additional focus?
Surely if the U18 team game midweek is of an evening, the players still train in the day and just play the game in the evening?
is there ever a point I should use suggested training? from the scouting report?
So, I didn't know you could right click to change training schedules.... I hated the way I was doing it.
I don’t have the game through steam how can I get the schedules ?
Did you create the match training schedule or is it pre made? I don’t have an option for 1 match per week.
Is this still valid for FM24? The options under match practice have changed and also on the description of every training option there is no reference to how it effects upcoming match.
There are no links to download training schedules in the description or am I blind?
When did Zealand get the Celtic kit? I’m assuming it was from Mystery Kits.
when you have so many wonderkids 26 is old on your team
Rate the top
good stuff
Is there a training schedule for the week without a match?
How do I get my U21 team into a league? They play in one cup and that's all the competitive matches they get.
how do i make it so my plays actually train the schedule i have for them
Z - Are there theming bonuses for daily training? What's the reasoning behind it?
What if I have a competition during pre-season (e.g. club world cup) should I not use the pre-season training?
What are the specialised trainings for the wonderkids?
Do I have to adjust every weeks training schedule or does it do automatically?
am i lost, or is there no links to the training in the description?
do i have to make 1 game a week and 2 game a week schedules and switch between them manually ?
Celtic 💚
Question : where can I download those programs if I don't have the game on steam ?
Are they downloads for the training schedules I can download and tweak?
I might be cussing in the church here but is there any automated training that actually works or a "plug and play" training schedule that you just have to set first time and don´t bother with after? I am one of those who don´t like the training part of the game but I really feel that I miss out on the development of players since I always let my coaches do the training for me.
Is there a schedule out there that is full plug and play? You just click it once and it automatically give you the best possible training your staff can provide? :)
Simple answer no! You always will have to do something.
Seriously Zealand...... You choose to wear THAT strip today of all days... Rangers are in a euro final today and that's what you wear!! After all the Americans and current international playing for Rangers. Cmon man... I expect an edit or refilm, done before kick off!! 😂
I am trying those schedules for FC Köln.Almost all players attributes are declining.I dınt understand?
Cause this focuses 90% Physical and Tactical Fam.
It is okay for about 3 Weeks or so...i usually Go for 5 Weeks Pre.
2 Physical with 1 Match per Week...then switching to 2 Matches a Week with more Tactical Training for Weeks 3 and 4 and in Week 5 i Switch to Normal Training with 1 Match
With good Medical Staff and adjusting the Load depending on my Scientists Recommendations i have Low Injuries,nearly Full Tactical Fam and Perfect Sharpness.
Doing this Training full Pre Saison will lead to crazy Fitness but the Rest falls behind
Possible stupid question, are the ages different for goalkeepers for training/matches being the primary source for development?
Also is it possible to get youre U19s team into a development league if they arent already in one
I don't think they will sadly. I've been in the top flight of Switzerland now for 5 seasons and no sign of being added in one.
for the last 2 FMs ive made sure to have a team bonding session every week, is that no longer useful? just wondering why it doesnt appear much in these videos
imo Teamwork does essentially the same thing, but better.
