You’re now ready to be handed the central result of our training testing. This whole series will help you take training in Football Manager from an afterthought to a huge advantage, but without this one video that would be impossible. We tinkered and tweaked our way to the ideal way to win matches, develop your team, and keep everyone healthy while training in FM.
I promise your young wonderkids and old injury-prone captains will be equally safe and taken care of in this training regime. Be sure to tailor it to your team's needs on FM too, that’s why I explain how you could change it but because you will likely need to. I want everyone to feel comfortable tweaking it, it gives you the ability to make it perfect for you and your save. I’m so freaking excited we finally did this.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

![[TH] VCT Masters Shanghai Swiss Stage DAY 5 // FPX vs TH | FUT vs LEV](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/r61uDZTmu44/mqdefault.jpg)
One thing you haven't said, which one of the game testers told me in his live stream: if you have mentor groups set up, and you have a model pro or model citizen in your squad, you can put in 18-20 year Olds in a group with that player, and using team bonding and community outreach every week you increase the chances that those young players will also develop the model pro/model citizen personality
If they can play in your squad that is great, if not and you are playing them in u23 games, Zealand covered that in another video where it is a detriment to their development to bring them up with your squad for mentoring like that because they miss a lot of training days - both the squad game days and travel and the U23 game days and travel etc.
The timing of this was PERFECT. I was just looking for training advice and BANG! Zealand the Genie grants me one of my wishes. Good shizzle, man. I think I'm also likely to test this out against other schedules (RDF, FM Scout) - should be interesting.
Tbh, I think Zealand is head and shoulders above all other FM youtubers when it comes to the nitty gritty of the game. Don’t you agree or this is someone I’m missing?
Same was just thinking to myself I need some help with training here the video is love this guy
yep, same here, i started to think that Z is globally mind reader
Would be interesting to hear your results.
@@BigManJay69 Bustthenet is most knowledgeable FM youtuber there is
I have been using fotmob for 4 years and this is the first time seeing someone promoting it. All other youtubers are promoting onefootball.
Tried this for 2 in game months and had my best run in my recently promoted PL team. And loads of 9+ training ratings. Had been using Mike's Best Ever Schedule prior to that and seeing even better development results with this one. Thanks!
Do you have a link to mike's training?
really glad you're drilling into this stuff, it's something a ton of people overlook and it can make a real difference (because the preset schedules are just not good). one huge tip: there's a setting in the staff responsibilties to notify you fortnightly about the next two week's schedules, and to review the schedule if there's a fixture rearrangement. these inbox items are SUPER useful because any fixture rearrangement, even if it's just moved for television, can completely wreck that week's training structure
Do you set up training two weeks in advance?
@@mattyaztec what i tend to do is apply schedules for the entire season in advance from the training calendar as soon as the league fixtures are released, then tweak them weekly when i get the inbox item or when i'm notified about a fixture change - since the regular emails are weekly but allow you to set up for two weeks, you'll very rarely be caught out. one thing you can just sit down and do at the start of a season that means less busywork week-to-week
Where do you click to get notified by the staff?
To prevent this, although some may consider it unfair since it might make things easier, you can go into the settings and enable the option to have games only on Wednesday and Saturday
@@daniel.spinazze I started doing that as some comps I ended up with one day off between games.
I ruled at CM/FM in the 90s. Coming back to it, I still ruled at winning games, but even my most talented youngsters were not improving. Your videos have given me some handholds to turn that around. Thnx! And FM helped me find an awesome streamer :D
Didn’t mention in the video but you should know: In the ‘rest’ tab you can set the farthest left heart to ‘no pitch or gym work’ and the next heart to ‘half intensity’ if your team is more injury prone or your preseason is shorter.
I know it looks freaky with no rest, it freaked me out too, your team will stay fit because the intensity is optimized. It comes back with less injuries than the training your assistant manager recommends.
Take the leap and your team will be better, you have my word
Thank you my good man, preseason training from the last video is already doing wonders for my team.
Is there going to be a vid on non-pro training? Or is the best approach literally don't care worry about everything else.
@Zealand what about "Match intensity to physio recommendation"? Ive noticed much fewer injuries since doing that (daily) but possibly worse training outcomes... did your minions consider that?
@@manyhamy6330 Personally, I find the 'match intesnsity to physio recommendation' a bit of a pain to be honest, as once they've changed it, it won't then revert to automatic when they have no recommendation, meaning you have to go in and change it yourself every few days. It would be great if you could delegate training intensity to your Head Physio so that if he has a *specific* recommendation then he'll apply that, otherwise it'll use the automatic settings you've chosen.
@@TonyBloke yes... Ive been pausing at the rollover of each day, selecting all players in the rest menu (ctrl + a), setting intensity to automatic, then hitting the set intensity to physio recommendation button. 😩painful...
Awesome job on these training series 👏🏼 Thank you, team Zealand!
Truly the best training in Football Manager for years and every time you said gets us pretty well.
I've been using Mike's Best Ever Training Schedule & just tweaking it a bit, depending on match load. I was worried about the lack of rest days at first, because it looks nothing like what the AI des, but it actually works & doesn't get too many injuries. Players get 8s, 9s & 10s in training & their development is boosted. I rarely get anyone complaining about training.
Where do you get that one
I’ve been using it since fm20 and hasn’t steered me wrong yet
His is ok and seems more suited for noncompetitive youth teams as it is heavy skill focused. The lack of attacking movement and defensive shape is worrying as well as the lack of 1 GK training which leads to GKs complaining.
So would you guys recommend Mike's or this one ?
@@nexus77185 This one at least for your first team.
A great video, thank you. I really appreciate the time and effort this type of thing takes.
Zealnd! You are the absolute best! I appreciate you and your work tremendously! I also love dark theme.
Been waiting on this! Good stuff Z
Been waiting for this for years!
i truly needed this. i just got all my stars injured within 2 days right before the season started. Pain.
Thank you for the great work Zealand
Just wanted to say this training guide has improved my fortunes more than any tactical advice for FM22. I have a young squad and they're responding incredibly to this regime. Thank you!
Weekly Team Bonding - put a smile of vindication on my face
At the beginning of the season (save) I always create 10 scenarios (4 schedules for pre-season preparation with decreasing intensity, 2 - for weeks with one match (Saturday / Sunday), 2 for matches with two matches per week, usually always one more defensively based and one more offensive, then I will create training sessions for the international break, where I give the players a few days off and then a week full of training in greater intensity + training that I do not use during the year such as goalkeepers or penalties.
Thanks to you and the team for this
Under one of your improving youngsters videos I've once responded with my training schedule. I'm glad to see that part of that philosophy is part of your 'perfect' training schedule in that you also start of with a big training day right after the match. I like mine better though. The problem with your schedule, in my eyes, is that you use too much general training. I wouldn't want my strikers to learn how to mark, which they do have to do with the general defending training and with outfield etc. I do, however, want my defenders learn how to pass and maybe finish for corners. That's why I only use 'attacking' as a general training. I much prefer to do defensive training sessions where my attackers don't have to learn defensive attributes but can still get their 20% on attacking skills. Another point you could probably improve is where you've put in 'game preview'. I like 'match tactics' better, as this boosts skills too and not just prepares a match.
My FM21 training schedule was this for a Saturday match:
Monday: Physical, def. shadow play, Tactical (or Set piece)
Tuesday: One-on-ones, Attacking, Chance creation
Wednesday: Transition-press, Team bonding, defending engaged
Thursday: Goalkeeping, chance conversion, ground defence
Friday: Def. shape, Att. movement, match tactics
Saturday: match
Sunday: recovery, match tactics (or game review) and rest / Tactical
Because players that aren't completely fit don't work at the highest intensity, this doesn't create many injuries, while it does help youngsters develop that are with the 1st team. For them I like the physical training. The Tactical on Monday and Sunday can be mixed up to do other things too. I just like the Tactical to help my defenders grow their mental stats, but set piece can be great too
Ground Defense, Aerial Defense, Chance Creation, and Chance conversion work on individual roles. You do something like 1. Chance Creation, 2. Ground Defense, 3. General--Goalkeeper, and you have a whole day working on individual roles. You can also do 1. Match Practice, 2. Recovery, 3. ?, you have another day dedicated to individual roles.
wow this is AWSOME, i overachive to reach la liga with la coruna in 2 season, now this season im started to use this training, i supoosed to be last and fight against relagation....
7 games has pased with no lose and i win villarreal and i am second
This was very interesting thx ! greetings from Germany :) well done
Once again an awesome video! I'm curious to see if there is potentially also going to be a test for a semi-professional training schedule and how to best handle that if you only have 4-6 training slots a week? It would be interesting to find out for us LLM managers.
please
If Zealand doesn't do it, check out FoxInTheBox's videos, he did exactly that.
Honestly, I've just been filling the slots with the attacking/defending boosts and switching between overall and team cohesion. They probably aren't going to develop, but with so many guys on non contracts I don't really care, my skill comes from loans.
@@asdafafsafda I did that and everyone started complaining about the training. So I don't know if there's an optimal program to run. I'd love to find out.
I can't do loans.. I'm in charge of a B-team in Spain 😝
@@BenMcManus I'll check it out, thanks!
You could change the training to Automatic in the same screen. Can pick the option from the Training Intensity drop down against each player on the list.
As a Norwich fan, I'm just happy to make it to another video.
Zealand is one of the best TH-camr especially the way he presents himself. Funny guy. Thats my opinion
I try to keep it simple and it works all the time since fm18, preseason full of fitness and tactical general training, overall and outfield is a must everyday in turns, and during the season a more balanced approach with overall outfield everyday plus general training plus specific training. Depending on the team I face and its weaknesses I focus a couple of sessions on corners or fks or gk training, but I always use match tactics and match preview prior to a match, plus a match prep session if I have 3 slots. After match, recovery bonding and community outreach. This works every f time, after a couple of months all players have 6,80 training rating minimum, their stats are flying and I am happy, bc I don't care and they don't care about double intensity sessions (plus some new trait or extra focus for them workaholics) :)
I serendipitouly found that the 2nd day training was more effective and I'm so glad to watch this lol
I just started fm22 as a first timer last night. I have a lot of knowledge of real life football but good God is it so much information all at once, it's completely overwhelming. Even watching your beginners guides I scheduled a first team v second team friendly and lost 5-1 😕
You can delegate the stuff you find confusing so you can focus on tactics first and foremost. Something like training you can dive into once you have your tactics down. As a beginner it’s too much to try and get everything perfect from the jump
@@gabereber5848 well I got the game solely because I like how in-depth it is. I just wish the tutorial was better.
The trick is do the exact opposite to what happens in real life and in fm, especially with the tactics.
Just got a Downton abbey movie trailer (ad) and it locks so good and interesting, i really look forward to it
I always use the assistant to train but I’m going to start a new save with my beloved Cardiff and I’m going to give this a go.
Cheers Z
It's such a grind with only 500k transfer funds and a small wage budget in the first season. But if you can get rid of some deadwood like Pack, Vaulks and one or two others you can easily mount a promotion challenge if you can get your loans right. I usually send Ikpeazu and Doughty back. Usually try to get in another Centre Mid and Attacker (Gelhardt of leeds is usually willing to come on loan)
hi zealand, this scheduele makes a lot of sense for a "one fit all"; effective, general, everyone improvess, not to heavy, if i had to change anything would be adding match practice session, is the single best session for developing the roles you chose for your players, and the automatic intensity is way to heavy for a team who plays 50 matches a year, i use double intense when full condition, then normal, then half intensity twice, and no training at all for the lowest condition, this keeps injuries far away and the players develop well.
You ever considered doing a deep dive video like this for making tactics? Feel like this is another thing where there isn't too many videos out there that explain it well.
Thanks for this! One question I have, is regarding the "match boosts" in the schedules. These have an effect that last for 7 days, so I've been trying to schedule them all one at a time on the 5 least played match days. So in your schedule the 5 you have are Teamwork, Set Pieces, Att Movement, Def Shape, and Team Bonding. I normally schedule those as one session each on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday on both my one match and two match schedule so that they are always renewing the boost on the same day every week as the old boost falls off. But you get them all in at the end of the week on a one match week. Does making the beginning of the week more strenuous and moving those back to just before the match really make the schedules more effective?
What I personally do , if I have two games in a week , I get my boosts out the way and train for the week since boosts last all week " attack movement / defence etc" then I can adjust rest if needed
These schedules seems to use a lot of *General* sessions. I'm curious to know if there's an advantage to the more focused attribute sessions. Z maybe you've got a test for this coming up?
E.g. Quickness + Endurance + Resistance > 3 * General Physical
..or Wings + Patient + Direct + Overlap > 4 * General Attacking
Since I started playing with this schedule, I have had considerably more injuries and fitness problems.
Me too
Just loading it in and comparing to the RF schedules I have been using, Zealand's have hardly any rest days, especially in between quick turnaround games. Scared me away from even trying it.
You have to run his pre-season training schedule first to get the players to the condition required to do this in-season schedule, since it is quite intensive.
Great video, appreciate the incredible content! I was wondering a few things. What do you do with those free weeks from moved matches/ international windows. Do you switch up the two match training weeks when you have extended periods of heavy match fixtures to make up for lost practice or lighten training further, and if you keep the same training schedule for youth teams?
Good question! Maybe have a match practice where the game would be?
Just in time for my save's preseason!
1:33 - Harsh but fair, Z. Harsh but fair.
As a Norwich fan I’m trying my best to not be offended by something I know is completely true! Can’t wait to see The Sarge bang in 20 goals in the Championship next year though.
The timing is mental. Ive just joined a new team and need to set up training
My only problem is that on the 2nd day after a match, some players are still too tired to do any physical training, which is why I generally only do physical training on weeks where I only have 1 match on the 3rd day after a match. It can be altered and you can force players to participate, but that generally leads to injuries.
In my experience, you do not get fitness issues if you have a light training schedule in the last 2 days before a match which means you can put a bit more intensity in the days before.
Also I strongly recommend team bonding on the first day after the match along with recovery.
1) the three days not near matches are the most intense in the schedule
2) team bonding is the day after the match it is wonderful
@@ZealandonYT I saw somewhere in the middle of the video you had a physical segment on monday where I'd have it on a tuesday.
Schedules really aren't that much different. We both have deep green intensity days 48 hours before the match. Yet, apart from the 2nd day after the match, I think it's fine to put plenty of intensity on the tuesdays and wednesday where you'd have the most intensive day on monday.
You'll probably cover it in some next video but I wonder how many of your players would have to sit out any physical segment if done on the 2nd day after the match?
@@FCGroningen1987 based off the resting we have in the ‘rest’ section, everyone is on normal training by the second day unless they are coming back from injury or have very high fatigue
Good content again Z. 👏
More by good luck than good management I already do something very similar. Very few rest slots.
But I have 2 training schedules for pre season. One focussed on physical, the other on physical and tactical, which I alternate to stop players moaning (and improve tactical side).
I then have schedules for attacking, defending, possession, tactical, technique. And a set piece which I rarely use. I try to cram as many match prep sessions in as possible and at least 1 recovery and 1 team bonding type activity. I alternate and move to a different schedule each week.
I also have schedules for Tuesday and Saturday match weeks and Wednesday and Saturday match weeks.
Oh and I have a no fixture schedule that contains no match prep sessions at all.
If games change I will tweak on the fly but not change the schedule itself. Example adding penalties if playing in a cup game that may go to penalties.
I have no idea if I get less injuries as I haven’t done any testing.
Awesome video.
Loving this series Z
Downloaded and tried using both the one match/two match as appropriate. I had a nice initial bump in match performance, but it didn't last long. I turned my training back over to my assistant manager as it would seem he's better at training than both of us. 🙂I appreciate the research though!
Amazing videos. Thanks to Z and the team behind them.
Are you going to get one with regards to u18 training / development?
Yep, oh yep
Great Video Z!! Definitely liked the deeper dive in why you choose to train what.
Is there gonna come a video for how to effectively train youth players as well (Long Term Save Man here 😁) or how good is this one for the U18?
For U18/U23 I do the following:
- Drop all the match boosts (since who cares if you win!?) in favour of attribute training
- Have physical training on Saturday instead of a "Match" session as those teams don't always have matches (sometimes even when you tell their managers to schedule friendlies!!)
U18 stuff is coming
Great news! Thanks already
@Zealand - Superb videos as always 😎 One question? You say match prep sessions (Att.Movement, Def.Shape etc) have an effect for 1 week (7 day period) but how do you know this? In the description it just says "upcoming match" implying only the next game?!
awesome video, can u do some for semi professionals also?
Thank you mate
@Zealand Love your content. I am wondering about the best way to make sure that your 2nd squad gets playing time. I have arranged Friendlies, but outside of the U23 in England there doesn't appear to be competitive leagues.
Slightly different from how I do it this time although there are similarities. Will be interesting on how I will incorporate it into mine. The double overall might lead to players complaining about too much physical training though and I personally prefer double recovery if I get the chance. Again overall a great minds think alike thing. Rest slots are for losers ;)
Mine looks like this:
Post match: Recovery, Recovery, Match review (if enough tac familiarity outfield) / Physical, Delivery, team bonding (this is lightest and offsets intensity of physical)/ Outfield, Chance Creation (need one technical training and boosts happiness most), Shot Stopping (need one GK training past post season) / Defending, Defending Engaged (or whatever your tactic style is), Defensive movement ( I like my theme days) / Attacking, Attacking Patient, Attacking movement/ Teamwork, Match Tactics ( or chance conversion if tac familiarity high), Match Preview.
So there is a bout a 90 percent overlap just some order differences.
For the 2 matches in the week thing I am still working under the assumption that it is just for next match and I will always try and sneak that 1 physical and 1 team bonding in. So it is very different.
came here looking for this comment
@@skinlessjerk5087 Thanks I think.
Oh i like the look of this, gonna give it a try. How would you set up a 2 game a week schedule? Playing in Prem League and mostly 2 games a week, the lack of rests is scary :)
@@Siven80 Not completely sure at the moment as it seems up in the air if next match training bonuses are actually next match or whole week. Based on the former assumption 1 recovery post match. Defensive shape, attacking movement, match preview at least. Plus one physical and Team Bonding in the week. If you have any spots left can be filled with set pieces, outfield, teamwork.
Im playing in the non league with a semi pro club and only have 4 training slots a week! A good recommendation for those situations will be appreciate. I always focus on match practice and tactics at least and cycle with overall/outfield/chance creation/conversion
Would it be possible to create a super training video with info on coach layout mentoring individual training facilities and team cohesion as well as anything I have missed that would be an incredibly useful video
I currently manage Wyre Villain the 12th tier, whose home ground is down the road from my house. We are amateur so we train twice a week. We’re doing match practice and match practice only. 👍😂
Hey Zealand I'm new. How can i import your training schedules to my save. I have already subscribed to them in steam workshop. But now i can't figure out how to select them on the training menu
How do I manage training when the team barely had two weeks of pre-season, and started an intense two-match per week league schedule? I have had 6-7 minor injuries and 4 more slight ones in three weeks so far, and the players get very tired by half-time. How do I fix that before major injuries come in?
Hi Z. Amazing video. Would it be possible for a video like this to be done for semi-pro/amateur clubs since they only have 2-3 days of training per week?
My advice for semi-pro/amateur clubs would be to focus on sessions that boost team cohesion and tactical familiarity so make Match Tactics, Team Bonding and Teamwork as well as either Attacking Movement or Defensive Shape the main priority and throw in the attacking set pieces sessions if you get that third day in the week. This should get your team up to speed much quicker than the AI and give you a big advantage. If/when cohesion and familiarity are high you can sessions out that focus on development though I wouldn't worry about this too much as players show very little development through training unless on full-time contracts.
@Zealand Thanks for creating the schedules. I haven't got FM via steam so I can't download the schedules. Is there anywhere else I can download them from. I have downloaded the youth ones but can't download weeks 1 & 2 and also. Pre season. Many thanks
Chris
subbed because of the standard liege shirt the team i support 🙂
Z - on Wed you have 3 sessions which all have a 60% priority on the attacking unit. How does this effect:
*A: The injury risk to that specific unit?*
I've never tested it, but my suspicion is that the engine calculates player injuries *per session*.
My "evidence" is that I see injuries come in when the game sims forward part way through a day.
I often look to see what that player was doing during that day and it often tallies up with the session type (though I haven't confirmed through testing). I.e. Attacking players getting injured when the attacking unit has the 60% focus.
*B: The effectiveness of coaches?*
I have zero evidence for this as the coaching workload seems to be calculated on a period longer than a day. But I guess you could test this by creating a schedules that target attacking and defending. In one, clump the sessions, in another simulation, mix them.
_Note: It might be hard to isolate the results of the test from A_
dude on a serous note, it looks like you got yellow rings around your eyes, get your self checked out for jaundice, great video btw
I appreciate all the work and effort that go into these videos.... however I don't think there is set training that is full proof for everyone. There's a reason why irl teams have different training schedules and same goes for the game.
My defensive units keeps getting unhappy. Saying that their units is not getting enough attention. Why is that?
will you explain mentoring in a future video?
arigato fm senpai
This is basically my aproach already. For once, I've got everything figured out.
Surprised there is no match practice. Always seemed like a really good training session to me. Untill now have mainly focused on sessions that have individual roles training as secondary focus to fill out the schedule. Has been working pretty good so far.
It's just super intense, the net gain is because we can train every part of every day here
If you have an off week get match practice in place of the match it is good
@@ZealandonYT thanks. This makes sense. Going to have a good look at training again
Unrelated question… I have a custom made team and added an under 23s and 18s, it doesn’t allow me to hire an under 18s manager though or place an advert for one. My team is part time, does this affect it? Cheers
I wish I had of watched this one before posting on the later video asking how to set up this plan :)
For people who don't care about the 100% realistic schedule, they can just use the setting of games only ever being played on Saturday and Wednesday, so you don't have to micromanage the training for every week
What setting is this? Generally I like to play the game as much like it’s real life as possible, but the thought of adjusting training to fit the match schedule for every single week isn’t appealing at all. I was vaguely aware there was a setting which makes your matches regular, but I’m not sure what exactly it is
I leave training to my assistant, but sometimes change some specific sessions to address issues i see during the matches. For example, if i notice we are getting a lot of chances but not scoring, i set some finishing training sessions, or if i see i'm conceding a lot of set piece goals, i set it to defensive set pieces. Or if there's one big game coming and it's against a big team, i put some defensive training and attacking set pieces because that one opportunity can get you that important goal.
I would add 1 - rest session and 1 - recovery session in week and swap physical with overall. I use in 1-match week setup match practise. I think also that people often use high pressing so use pressing session. I am also mutch more stricly in rest (no, no, half, normal, double). You dont need to care about players resting individualy and you can use 2nd day after match high intesity training without injuries.
Try no,half,normal-normal, double
Only use the physical one every three weeks, and match practice is too intense, only use it when you don’t have a match that week, that’s the thought process to stay fit on our end
This actually raises an important question : Just HOW similar is a test simulation to actually playing the Game?
i see a LOT of "tactic testing" videos and the assumption is that simulating a match or an entire season is more or less comparable to actually playing. Question is...How sure are we that the game mechanics for simulating results are the same as the mechanics for actually playing the game?
Simulating a match takes far less time than playing. If the mechanics are the same, does that mean that when we actually play a match, that most of the what we see is filler? is the result of a match we play actually determined in the first few minutes ? or, if the actions we take in a match have considerable impact, does that mean that simulating matches/seasons are kinda worthless?
i would assume that training mechanics are exactly the same, since training is always simulated.
Sorry; this was kinda off- topic.
When you spoke about your team simulating results, it just reminded me of this question I've had for a while.
its mainly due to the fact that i've watched tons of "Best OP tactic in FM ..." videos, and never had the same results that the content creator had in their simulations.
I have the same question like you. I tested many of this "op" tactics, all seem not to work like they show. But RDF has at least the best results for me in 3D Game. But still you need to tweak the tactics to optimize it.
I make my own tactics now. I have a Sporting CP Save and make a 343/523 and used the tips from Sensei Zealand. But my feeling was just after 3-4 month the tactic is working after many tweaking. But still need to adjust in some games! So to come to an end now, I think to play 3D game give you more "control" over results, than simulating!
From what I was told back when I played FM Live, when that was a thing, is that the match engine calculates the results at the start of the match and then it re-calculates the result dependant on any changes you or the AI make during the match (injuries, subs, tactical tweaks, shouts, team-talks, etc.)
It would take a lot of work to have a live simulation that calculates results as you go along the match, especially as people will watch matches at different speeds to others, which means the simulated results probably would be slightly different if played by a human controlled person as they are likely to do more tweaks, more changes and different subs to what the AI would do.
It's definitely pre-determined at the start (as soon as you press to start the match) but everything we do can change the outcome. Think of it as a simulator that takes your inputs, and outputs the result but in a more visual format
Can you use this all pre-season, or does it need tweaking depending on stage of pre-season?
Do you use these schedules for your u23s and u18s as well or just your first team please
Well...i started doing Training by myselfe and one Thing i am thinking of...would it make Sense to Change the dark blue sessions with specific Ones for My Tactic..fE Press,conversion, att and def Shadowplay etc?
Sick!
I always just use the assistant for training cause it looms like to much work lol If I use this set up do I have to go in every week and set it up or can it be pre set for the season only having to change when 1 match a week or 2
I don’t know if I made any tweaks (I don’t think I did?) but my defensive players are getting grumpy about lack of focus on their group, and the only thing I can see is that attacking patient, attacking, chance creation day is all 60% attacking schedules. I changed “chance creation” to “play out from the back” to balance that day out.
The mixed results of this approach have me perplexed.
My teams attributes flew up in preseason, especially physicals and mentals. However the injuries were the highest in the league throughout, the teams fatigue was through the roof before the season even started, and ive never seen sharpness so low across my team.
Any advice? Am i doing something wrong? Should you use this in bootcamp or sack bootcamp off?
Only question I can think of is what level of football team is this aimed at. I’m playing with pribram, a team in the Czech second division. Would it work well with these or would it be more aimed at a premier league team?
Mr Zeeland, how about for us from epic? Seems like I can't download it even though I have an account on steam.
Did the preseason traning for 4 weeks, then changed to the other schedules, getting alot of injuries even though the individual players training is at medium at max, took away double intensity in the resting page, and all injuries stopped.... any way i can keep the double intensity and still not get injuries?
So is it bad to focus on one area per week? E.g.) one full week mostly attacking training w some general ones
Also I will be waiting for that Norwich 2025 save ;)
Hello. Can somebody tell me what is better-to use downloaded training schedules or to give my assistent create training according my tactics and upcoming matches?From which attribute of my assistent depend how good is he in this? Man management, mental...?
so far after using this ive lost all of my games after being unbeaten since joining my new club, AND i had more injuries
Hmmm, now what did the original say?
@@kyledittman8408 comment? i think i just did a spelling correction
The training start in pre season, ir you start It mid season the players cant handle It, they Will get tired, not perform and get injuries
I've always wondered what is the main difference between 'attacking shadow play' within tactical training vs 'attacking movement' in match preparation training (and then the same for corresponding defensive training).
Are these scheduled purely aimed at attribute growth? I just love the technical training - play from the back and ball retention for my tactic.
Yep. Just click between them and you'll see. Shadow play boosts set attributes, then only permanent boost you get from attacking movement is whatever you've got set in a player's individual training focus.
but how did you get friday because i dont see the options what you with shape
Does it have influence on the development when players are not satisfied with the training?
You (Zealand) seem to recommend a 4-6 heavy physical pre-season training. Are you sure that is the optimal length? I ask because knowledgeable FM'ers seem all over the place on this one. People advocating for anything between 1 week (Rashidi /BusttheNet and others) to 4-6 weeks like you seem to do. Could you elaborate on why 4-6 weeks is the best? A further question: What length of heavy physical pre-season is the best when you play Gegenpress (my preferred tactic)?
Youth training schedule coming soon? I don’t care if they win, i wanna see them develop!
Do you use the same schedules for the Youth training?
Zealand I have a question.
Could you create tactics to prepare your own team to face these tactics. For example. My main tactic for my Sesvete save is A 4-2-4 Wing play system but a lot of teams use 4-2-3-1 which is effective against my tactic. I tried using a 4-3-3 to counter this but my strikers started complaining about game time. So could I make a 3rd tactic for my team to train against so that they could learn how to counter it?
you cant create a 4-2-3-1 and train against it if thats what youre asking. you should instead find a tactic that fits your team (maybe 5-3-2 or 4-1-2-1-2 either with one CAM or ofset winger or anything else that can counter 4-2-3-1) and make sure your players are familliar with the tactic.
@@foodtenswhalestream940 Oh ok thanks
Do you use a different training schedule for pre season?
Defending from the front effect attacking unit as it's primary unit so even though it's in defences training u are still neglecting your defence unit
As I said in the video the attacking and defending specific training (one each) can be rotated through the different options in those sections. In defense though I would only do the four that work the larger sets of attributes not the two more specific ones
