I'm not good at tactics and stuff like that so I always download some tactic and if it suddenly stops working it always ends the same way: Trying stuff for 1-2 games --> it's not working --> stop playing fm for a few weeks --> start again but with a new save --> play at least 2 seasons --> repeat from the beginning
issue 1 is : what team are you playing due not all tatcis work with a bottom team so you need to look what fits your players. Second is just keep going at it, you learn more from failing due you learn what is going wrong due when its all goes well, you still no idea what does the good thing and what does the bad thing.
Just set up a system, barebones as possible, then like Z said think about how to get where you want by adding more instructions slowly. Don't just click every option, or try to force a square peg tactic into a round hole. Have at least three tactics saved.

"Might as well be an F1 driver at that point cause can't do anything else" Average goalkeeper is probably too tall to fit in an F1 car so he really can't do sh*t
Well I’m 6’4 the same height as my dad and my dad couldn’t get in to the Danish Air Force because he was too tall so being too tall for F1 wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest

@Aj51034As an American, playing since the early '80s, I have wayyy too many friends exactly the same. 20 years ago these guys ridiculed me incessantly for playing soccer....now they don't want to talk to me about anything else BUT soccer! You're not the only one that caught the bug...welcome aboard!
@@willmena96 Even though I know the game of soccer inside and out, I don't know FM. These "real life" sessions, which I think this may be the first I've seen, are extremely helpful. There's still noobs like myself out there!
@Aj51034 I agree completely. I've been playing FM since it was called Championship Manager (1991??) but I learn so much Zealands approach to solving an issue, rather than the issue itself. Conceding goals? Might not be your defence. Struggling to compete against bigger teams? Here's a strategy that gives you a fighting chance. etc
Many complain about being too weak after promotion and don't know what to do. I went from Spanish 4th tier straight to 1st div and ended 3rd on my first year with 15M wages while the next worst team had 50M. The key is to really do a thorough scout for the players that have the perfect attributes to work in your tactic as you'll have no budget. For example, if you want to play possession you'll need good mentals, good stamina and work rate, and good passing. I played low lines and used tall players to win with set pieces and fluid counters and it worked out well lol. The other key point is that tactic familiarity, cohesion, leadership and determination seem to play an insanely important role. I lost a lot more the 2nd year in the 1st div because I sold some of the worse team leaders and brought actually great players, but friendships, familiarity, happiness and cohesion have proven to be massive, so maybe don't try to sell an old player who isn't so good but is playing well, and let him be another year to help the youngsters settle in. High determination has carried some low CA players for me too. (Of course tactics are vital too but that's trial and error with the pieces you're given) Hope it helps.
I agree with this advice so much From experience. I sometimes think that people panic after they get promoted and they think Oh were bad but Infact they might not be. I think the single thing that contributes to this is the season preview. Recently Ive started to not take it as seriously because it changes a lot based on results so the better you play it then goes up during the season. I got similar success just playing a 5-3-2 that was more attacking in its approach to yours and I got back to back promotion after a first season where I got 2nd in the 4th tier. But from then on I just signed better players along with some good youngster I could sign on frees combined with some experienced and proven lads and I got promoted back to back from 4th to 2nd tier and then got ninth and then I won the league second season in that league to get out of the 2nd division to the 1st. Then had a year like you where I got into the UCL by finishing 5th and then got to a UCL final in the first season I was in it but I did lose that final like 5-0 to PSG. I moved to a 5-2-1-2 in la liga but I made sure I had the playing personnel for it and wasn't too far from what I used before. I think the 3 pillors to performing well and overchiving is have a solid tatic,Keep improving and bringing the players in who can improve the team within that tatic, Sign some youngsters combined also with some experienced and or established players, Dont mess around with tactics too much when you get promoted and stick to what you used the previous season. I think team cohesion, Team happiness and then having great managerial support from the players has a huge impact on performance and you can just ride that wave of momentum and do bits.
@@Beyondultragaming Absolutely! The difference between a sad/unfamiliar team and a happy/familiar team is insane this year, I couldn't believe decent 2nd div players were able to go to Champions in my case just because they were so confident lol, congrats on your success by the way!
Agree. I came in 5th and got Champions league after getting promoted to the prem. Cohesion, hapiness, intense preseason combined with depth and squad rotation … that shit will do a looottt for you. Add in some good talent and you’re cooking with gas
5:43 there's actually a trick that i use personally when dealing with partial stats which is i compare the partial stats player with a player on my club that the same roles then count the difference between their attributes and usually the number is pretty accurate
appreciate the solution, Im confused what you mean by counting difference if one of the player's stats are in a range. do you mean which stats the game says one player has better than the other? or something else?
@@willbruh6536 I think: The player you are scouting will show the same specific stats for their position. E.g. CM always shows passing vision etc. Just compare the the partial stats to your own player - this provides a good base for the overall level of player he likely is.
@@willbruh6536 to answer your question, what I usually do let's say you are looking for advanced playmaker so I will pick the partial stats player compare it with the cm on my team and use the compare stats (with roles) option on the top right and look for the attributes that you need it will give rough idea on how good the player is
Have faith, I won the prem twice, the FA cup three times and the champions lague with Kings Lynn town. My team was in like 2 mill in debt in league one... You got this !!
Low block aggressive tactic always works for me. People tend to think a low block means not many goals but i just won the bundesliga in my 2nd top flight season with HSV and done it last year in ligue 1 with palermo
Okay huge tip from a pro. Search players with Potential Ability don’t look for current abilities. Scale the age between x to max 19 wait for December to January and Daily check the list. Sort the list in PA (Potential Ability) if you are lucky some of the players can be approached to be signed. If you check daily you can sign players as I did with PA 199 to PA 180 all of these players going to be worldclass 100 Million Player’s. These are so called hidden attributes and fun part of it even if they are 14-17 play them directly in your first team. Try to setup: Attacks to learn -> Complete Forward (Attack) Midfielder to -> Box to Box players Defence to -> WB Attack but parallel to IW or IF. Reason these are the best states in terms of important attributes that every player have good passing, shooting, ball control, pace, acceleration etc etc… Next tip take a 190 PA and let him start CD every game you switch his position one higher on the pitch so next time he plays CM (Box to Box) next game SS (Shadow striker) next game CF (Complete Forward) repeat the same for WB -> BB next -> IW/IF -> next CF. After all your young Players reach 20 they have close a CA (Current Ability) of 170 this are the moment you evaluate their best development and give them their last position to develop the last 19-29 PA (Potential Ability). Example a 198 (15year old) CD can be the best CM or CF you ever developed. So don’t just think position matters. A 2m heavy jumping, header defender in a box going to be a best if you feed him with balls in the air & parallel ball control, technic, Dribbling, shooting develop to 17-20 😂 So now guys enjoy the run…if you need pictures of my beast player -> I proof it 😂
Another great episode which has helped develop my knowlede of FM, love the format with with the player being there while you save the save, but I'm also requesting an episode with RDF Tactics, in a similar format to the one with Tom, think it'll make a very intriguing episode!
Hello Z please help 😅. I really hope you see this post. Im managing N. Forest So I've noticed this. If I simulate a game with "Instant match" the result is usually in my favour, even if my team loses it has like 2.0 xG something, rarely less and in the match replay the team is so fun to watch, scores crazy goals and so on. But..... As soon as I decide to manage the games live (and that is what I would love to do most of the time) the team rarely scores more than 1 goal and xG is 0,5 on average. Loses most of the time. They are zero combinations and plays that are made and my high profile players with 16+ attributes don't make any difference if I swap them for 10+ attribute players. It just feels the same every game. I didn't notice this just this save. It happened I every FM I played since 2019. What am I doing wrong? Is there any "tick" I need to switch on or off to make my live games be more interesting and interactive. I don't want to "Instant match" every time to get high results 😢
Hey man! Have been watching for a while now and thought I'd give this game a go as for my love of football♥️ your videos and knowledge is and are amazing!

@@dileum2015 Yes, but the G in G/A literally means Goals and the A literally means Against. That what each letter officially represents. I don’t know how to explain this any further. We’re not talking about synonyms, we’re talking about what each letter officially stands for. Goals. Against.
The first guy asked a question about loans which is what I've never been able to work out. Zealand talks about loans but how to know the quality of the player properly? The scouting system doesn't seem to apply effectively or they're outside range, even affiliate club's id have to individually scout each one 🤷♂️. I still didn't pick up a clear answer from what Zealand said ias it moved back to talking about free transfers. I need to know the most effective way to scout or find out what I need from loan players, anyone? Hopefully that makes sense, see the question the first guy asks about this. Thanks
I choose 1-2 months in the year, to expand my scouting range to "Premier League" or whatever is the top league in my country. Then you can scout all the loan-listed players pretty quickly in that month. This is worth more than a little bit of extra transfer budget in the lower leagues. I also use it to scout players with expiring contracts.
Man half these saves weren't even that bad lol, how are so many people who play FM afraid of losing? Some of my best saves have been ones where it's a bigger struggle, idk where the fun is to be had in winning everything in every save :\
I personally can't believe the third guy winning ECL with that team, especially with that striker. Also Z, you said the GK is bad for the second guy, but i think it's decent, very well rounded and 15-15 reflex-one on one GK.
Nukz formation is unbalanced with only one winger. I would advertise him play 4-4-2 diamond with Sensi as a LCM and Aas as a RCM, Obafemi as a LCF and Holm as a RCF with Talles Magno playing CAM, if Magno goes to wing, the wing is on that forward is the central striker Another is 4-3-3
12:08 what makes this goalie a bad shot stopper? his reach is great at 17, his reflexes and one on ones are good at 15, his positioning is decent at 14 and his handling and are pretty bad at 13 & 12.
There is a lot of stuff we looked at that wasnt included in the vid, and one of those was zlatans stats, he was injured for most of the season and averaged a 6.7😭😭 and i can promise you i have never even attempted to use the editor once. Ruins the experience for me personally.
Oh, how recognizable, having 2 decent seasons, and then the third.. Ruined. Luckily i discovered some decent tactics. You can say it is about the players, but sometimes it's just FM and especially tactics that ruin your game. But what the hell is that line-up of that guy?
I never understand people who change tactics... i decided to play a version of Ange Ball in FM24 and i never change from it. Yes the tactic has grown over time as i watch the match engine and the heat map and average positions etc... but it's always minor and then stays that way forever once it's doing the job.
@@nwahnerevar9398 not really i built the base of the tactic from scratch over the 1st half season whe i took my first job in the save. And then each season small tweaks have been made and if they work it stays if they fail i reset to what did work before twiddling again the next season. The tactic wasn't a premade one, and it wasn't someone elses top tactic. It's all mine and has been evolved over 18 seasons now as i completed the pentagon challenge lol
@@ameladolnz7784 Yeah I did the same, built a tactic up from scratch, still got bored after like 4 seasons. More realistic to change how you play too, trying to do only one thing will get you found out inevitably.

Honestly I’m trying to leave the 433 but i cannot form a tactic that works. I have a 5 1 1 2 1 that doesn’t work at all and I’m seething
Tactics don't matter, only club atmosphere and happiness matters. That's what makes u win games
@@makchot3263 lol
5-1-1-2-1?
@@makchot3263well, that’s not true. They both matter a lot.
I love a good 4-2-2-2 to be honest man
As a miserable brit. The enthusiasm of americans drives me bananas.
12:06 what makes that keeper a bad shot stopper?, his stats seems okay to me, not world class of course but not horrid
Yeah, I stopped to video to check it and I can’t see him being that bad , I think
Hey Z, you going to update your USA Database?
Can't wait for the FM25 rework and what that might look like, started with FM19 and bought every Game since but it got real stale year after year.
"He's not inconsistent, he's bad."
Took me out.
Germany guy needs a playmaker.
Man half these saves weren't even that bad lol, how are so many people who play FM afraid of losing? Some of my best saves have been ones where it's a bigger struggle, idk where the fun is to be had in winning everything in every save :\
I personally can't believe the third guy winning ECL with that team, especially with that striker.
Also Z, you said the GK is bad for the second guy, but i think it's decent, very well rounded and 15-15 reflex-one on one GK.
People play like getting relegated is the end of the world… personally I love getting relegated and needing to bounce back
Karlsruhe! My first FM love ❤
Nukz formation is unbalanced with only one winger.
I would advertise him play 4-4-2 diamond with Sensi as a LCM and Aas as a RCM, Obafemi as a LCF and Holm as a RCF with Talles Magno playing CAM, if Magno goes to wing, the wing is on that forward is the central striker
Another is 4-3-3
THE KIT IS CLASS!!!
But 28 goalkeepers, offer them all a trial, no problem. 730 keepers on trial? Sometimes less is more :D
How do I submit my save for these videos? 13 years into a save with st pats and ready to give up
Let the guy play with Atletico Nacional from Medellin as Pablo Escobar
How do i submit my save and can a submit a ps5 save
12:08 what makes this goalie a bad shot stopper? his reach is great at 17, his reflexes and one on ones are good at 15, his positioning is decent at 14 and his handling and are pretty bad at 13 & 12.
dude saving people's lives but need Zealand to save his saves 🤣
Mikezoraz has been playing since fm08!!??
bro my fm save need to be saved i went from a 7 points gap to bottling the leageu
"How did you get Zlatan in league one?" zooms out see's pencil 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
We are watching Zealand's game here, not the guy who signed Zlatan.
There is a lot of stuff we looked at that wasnt included in the vid, and one of those was zlatans stats, he was injured for most of the season and averaged a 6.7😭😭 and i can promise you i have never even attempted to use the editor once. Ruins the experience for me personally.
The pencil is in zealands version of the game I’m pretty sure. He’s not actually playing their game.
1st guy looks like Pablo Escobar lite
For sure he was using some editor cheat if he signed Zlatan in League One
Oh, how recognizable, having 2 decent seasons, and then the third.. Ruined. Luckily i discovered some decent tactics. You can say it is about the players, but sometimes it's just FM and especially tactics that ruin your game.
But what the hell is that line-up of that guy?
Why does willbruh look exactly like pablo Escobar
I'm a big fan of his work.
@@willbruh6536 i love your style though, especially the hair
is jaystantheman from kings lynn?
14:42 wrong team bud
Q? How did you get zlatan into league one?
A. It’s my first save.
…Errrr okay then 🤦🏽♂️😂
Mikkel Damsgaard lookalike?
I got relegated... and then my save corrupted!!!
What does "free with gamepass" mean? I thought you have to pay for the gamepass itselft, no?
I never understand people who change tactics... i decided to play a version of Ange Ball in FM24 and i never change from it. Yes the tactic has grown over time as i watch the match engine and the heat map and average positions etc... but it's always minor and then stays that way forever once it's doing the job.
boring innit
@@nwahnerevar9398 not really i built the base of the tactic from scratch over the 1st half season whe i took my first job in the save. And then each season small tweaks have been made and if they work it stays if they fail i reset to what did work before twiddling again the next season.
The tactic wasn't a premade one, and it wasn't someone elses top tactic. It's all mine and has been evolved over 18 seasons now as i completed the pentagon challenge lol
@@ameladolnz7784 Yeah I did the same, built a tactic up from scratch, still got bored after like 4 seasons. More realistic to change how you play too, trying to do only one thing will get you found out inevitably.
I find this year way too easy, gets boring way too quickly. Ai needs to get better.
Eindhoven guy is purely a save scummer 😂 😂
Dear Zealand, do you doctor only actual saves or from the versions too?
Yes, I fully understand this question.
5-1-2-1 [2] all the way
DANIEL OGWURU
hlo
"4-3-3 is the most basic" what the hell has modern football turned you guys into
It’s very much basic now and boring
i liked old format more, i mean without involving other people.
1:50 dude plays fm to focus on other things than tactics... Smh
G
Goals Allowed? You mean Goals Against?
It means the exact same.
@@dileum2015 G/A on ANY league table means "goals against". It's literally what these two letters stand for.
Typical yanks making up their own language rather than talking English
@@dileum2015 Yeah you can call it that if you want, but its goals against when your looking at an actual league table, thats what GA stands for.
first yessir
I think the starts of saves are so boring so I barely get anywhere
Sys more like kill your saves
Please react to fellow 'mericun NickRTFM (fifa uoutuber/streamer) playing fm 🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank youuuuu
