4:20 happend between Werder Bremen and Hamburger SV in the 2008/2009 Season. They both reached the UEFA-Cup semi final, the DFB Pokal semi final and they played in the Bundesliga against each other. 4 Games in 19 Days between each other. This is also special because there is a big rivalry between Werder Bremen and Hamburger SV. Its called the "Nordderby".
That Man City losing the league one at 9:32 is INSANE for so many reasons: - Arsenal wins the league on 71 points - The league is won on goal differential - The PL has only THREE UCL slots - Where's the UCEL slot? - Three pairs of teams even in the top 6 - Chelsea finish 2 points off the title and have NO European football the next season - Man City lose only 5 matches all year and just sneak into the last Europa League slot - Man City also have FIFTEEN draws. If they win ONE of those, they win the league because of the best overall goal differential. - Man City also make Europe with a win% UNDER 50% Seriously. SO MUCH CRAZINESS.
Just on the thumbnail. My poor clicking form got me accidentally resigning from my job when I was trying to lower the points target the board wanted to set me 😂
I find it incredible that Zealand manages to pronounce every other word differently to any other person I've ever heard. From names of players to names of countries. I feel a strange mixture of fascination and fear when listening to him speak
Re: Vasteras SK - Since that meme was posted they have scored 5 more goals. After 12 matches, they have 8 goals scored. However, they are still 2nd in the league with 22.8 xG. The next fewest goals in the Allsvenskan is 13 by Goteborg. Also, half of their goals scored this season so far have been due to a 4-0 drubbing of Kalmar FF, the team directly above them in the standings. Some of the players responsible for their scoring issues (and some FM attributes I think I'm finding): - Jabir Abdihakim Ali (96 CA, 13 Finishing, 10 Composure) - 5.2 xG, 6th in league. 1 goal scored - Patric Aslund (98 CA, 10 Finishing, 12 Composure) - 2.9 xG, 19th in league, 1 goal scored (in 4-0 win) - Matteo Ahlinvi (110 CA, 10 Finishing, 14 Composure) - 2.6 xG, 22nd in league, scored brace in last match - Simon Johansson (102 CA, 10 Finishing, 12 Composure) - 2.4 xG, 28th in league, 0 goals - Ibrahim Diabate (94 CA, 12 Finishing, 10 Composure) - 2.3 xG, 31st in league, 1 goal But Henry Offia is OVERPERFORMING his xG, with 2 goals against an xG of 1.5!! Also Vasteras is: - 3rd in xGA with 14 - 3rd in GA with 14 behind league leaders Malmo and Djurgarden - on a surge with 5 points from their last 3 matches - according to a number of sites, going by xG, xGA, and xPts, Vasteras should be somewhere between 2nd and 4th, usually coming out in a tie for 2nd most points in the league
As a Canadian we eating SO GOOD right now. Successful hate watches for Mexico and USA but I honestly started feeling bad for the USA at the end. It looked like boys against men.
With it being in stoke on Trent it's either stoke city or port vale, as a stoke supporter and knowing how the local council operates then yup that's accurate lol
When you're trying to click through a staff meeting real fast and they throw a "Change Captain" suggestion in there and you accidentally click it and tank your team dynamics for a full year.
Back in 1991, when the FA cup only did replays if a match was drawn, Leeds played Arsenal for 4 of 5 consecutive matches. All 4 were in the FA cup with an away tie to Spurs in the middle. We then played them a 5th time 3 matches later..... So 5 times in 8 matches.
4:27 something similar happened in germany around 15 years ago irl. Northern Germany Rivals of Hamburger SV and Werder Bremen met up against each other in the league, the german cup final and the semi finals of the UEFA cup. 4 matches in between them in 2 weeks.
assuming its oriental dragons hes talking about when talking about a club he played with in the past from potugal with unsaviour Chinese dealings, what happened with the club in real life?
In my AZ Alkmaar save, Koopmeiners was at the same club, for pretty much the same money. When they let him go on a free. I brought him back to AZ. He was okay with 300K a week.
The “fan culture” one is suuuuper relatable for me. That’s a big factor in how I find teams to root for and there have been at least a few times where I’ll hitch my wagon to a club only to find out they’ve got some unsavory folks in their fan base (looking at you, Paris FC. You’re lucky I love Paris and am too stubborn to ever root for PSG).
8:11 I have nothing better to do so I'm going to talk about my experience with asymmetrical tactics: usually, they aren't the best you can do. If you don't account for the gaps you've left it's going to end up lacking in some area. But if you structure it well enough, it definitely can make your talent shine the most. In my current save, the only time I used it for longer was while using a 433 when I found myself lacking right wingers in the summer, but with a good CAM having just arrived. I turned the right winger into a shadow striker that's offset slightly to the right, and that season he was firing goals left right and centre. My striker was a deep lying one so in reality, my CAM was the main goal scoring threat on the team. That was paired with a complete wingback on the right who also had an amazing season creatively, he'd often find himself escaping the defense and going through the area unopposed, from where he either assisted or even scored a few himself. In short, I had an asymmetrical 433 with a CAM and without a RW that worked because of the CWB doing a lot of winger work, causing us to essentially have an extra man in attack when the wing-back made successful runs.
The 2 seat upgrade to the stadium is hilarious! It's in Stoke on Trent so it's either Stoke City or Port Vale and i myself am a Stoke supporter and know how the local council operates, I'm afraid so say yup £500k for two seats is pretty accurate lol. Now if you wanted a fancy seat that folds well that would set you back a cool £500k Each lol
Hey man, love your videos. Think you should take a look at all the wonderkids Tottenham seem to be acquiring (just signed Archie Gray today/yesterday), Ange is really cooking something and I'd love to hear your takes on it.
7:55 Literally on EA FC 25, with my team from the Secunda Division (2nd tier in Spain) Unión Deportiva Del Pueblo, trying to sign Ronaldo Cabrais, 25 year old CAM from Palmeiras in the Brazilian League, that didn't want to leave cuz he was too important for the team, now a 30 year old in rapid decline
I feel the Sparta Prague defeat one, I just got Vanarama South Farnborough FC to the FA Cup round of 16 (5th round) and got hammered by Arsenal who were in a title race in the Premiership... and had fans whining, players losing morale, etc. Seriously?!?
Out of Context Football Manager: I know one man who would do better than Gareth Southgate... Zealand: Well first of all, I would really struggle in the international game. The lack of loans...

About the goalkeeper scoring a goal...I was in my 1st season with united, reached the cl final vs psg and was 1-0 up until the 92nd minute when donarumma the gk scored from a corner..
4:37 reminds me of Hamburger SV vs Werder Bremen in 08/09 Season: 4/22 German Cup Semi Final 4/30 UEFA Cup Semi Final 5/7 UEFA Cup Semi Final 5/10 Bundesliga
I needed Ronaldo, Aimar, Riquelme, 'dinho, Mihajlovic, Batistuta, Eto'o, Owen, Xabi Alonso, Xavi, Sorin, w. Samuel, Rio Ferdinand, Puyol and Buffon to get to 38-0 xD
Ah Zealand, i have some bad news for you on the Copa America front. Also, Miles has apparently gone on to say that touchline shouts do not work and have not worked in years. So....yeah.
Updating on Vasteras SK: The league is past its halfway point, with Vasteras at 16 matches played. They are still 2nd in xG with 1.67. They are in a very tight 5th in xGA with 1.37 (3rd-6th is 1.35-1.38) This gives them an xG differential of 0.30, which is good enough for 3rd. REALITY: They are last in the league with 0.75 GF/match (next is 1.13, so it's not even close) They are 5th in the league with GA at 1.38 (almost EXACTLY where they should be. This means their xG vs Actual is -0.92 goals/match. There are 5 other teams with negative xG vs Actual in the league. COMBINED, they add up to -0.74. So they are underperforming worse than all the other underperforming teams in their entire league. In fact, the most underperforming team in the 5 major European Leagues last year was Rayo Vallecano with -0.65 xG vs Actual. These guys can't BUY a goal.
On the Saudi wages, they bought one of my players out of the Championship and promptly paid him 450k a week. Bro was making more than the rest of his old teammates combined.
Regarding international transfers: after Neymar left for the category of free agents, his appetites decreased dramatically, and I was able to sign him very profitably. We just have to wait

THE WORK THE SPACE CLIP HAHAHA ZEALAND YOU MONSTER
the fact offside goals are so better animated is an actual crime. if the goal is too 'clean' its always offside.
LOANS are possible in world football. It's just called IMPERIALISM and it sky rockets the scouting budget...

I think you'll find those two seats are golden thrones
The bravery of keeping the USA prediction in today 👏👏👏
I absolutely lost it when I saw Phil Jones playing for Sparta Prague, like, WTF?!?!?!?!
