Making Tough Transfer Decisions: A Guide

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 8 май 2020
  • In Football Manager making the right decision on key transfers can make or break a save. Transfer tactics are key and while FM20 might give you a lot of tools, none can project the future the way I explain in this guide. Good transfers are good value, providing more than what is given up to get them. It sounds simple, but in application ‘good value’ transfers definitely need their own tip-filled video here.
    I love making videos like this. I get to step behind the basics and talk about the theory involved in Football Manager. This type of decision making can make you a brilliant FM20 player, or just another one that is technically proficient. Make a spreadsheet, draw a chart, use a word web, try out excel, everyone has their own move - time to find your way to balance moves. See you on stream!
    Much love,
    FM Senpai

    Hey Mr. Zealand, appreciate the content. I'd be interested in a video about planning your next seasons squad. When do you start looking into your squad, deciding who to let go, who to sign. You don't want to have to scout players the last minute. I'd imagine halfway through the season when players regularly have 6 months left on their contract?

    I am new to FM, at my second savegame now, where I try to take York to PM. After two seasons I have gained two promotions and have reached league 2, but money is short and every transfer count. And since I cant afford the really good players I have to go through a "guessing game" every time I try to get someone in. So this video sounds promising,at least before I start watching it. Hopefully I can learn something :)

  • @JMThought

    A lot of your videos are useful for smaller clubs but could you do video about if you come into a big club where you have high exceptions but low budgets?
    Twice in my save I’ve come into two clubs which have asked me to challenge for the title but with very old fairly weak squad and then given me lousy transfer budgets and 20% sell on. Brazilian wonder kids to be developed over multiple seasons won’t cut it and the European elite players can be afforded.
    Really useful videos btw! I’ve been playing for a few years and I’ve learnt so much.

    But my senior team staff is amazing.
    I'm afraid keeping them in my u19 squad will hinder their process.
    Should I move the youth players to my senior team? I could make them available for B team and U19 matches. I just want them to keep developing

    Hey I have a question if anyone would be willing to answer this. I have the in game editor, and I wanted to know if the in game editor has any kind of effect on game itself in terms of player development or some other aspect of the game? For some reason I have the idea in my head that having the in game editor active during a save, will slow the development of players in general. I'm probably overthinking this but I'm hoping someone could clarify this for me. Thanks :)

    wait, you have to explain these real faces on newgens! I hate that every 15 yr old in FM has a beard like a fucking 50 yr old.

    I love your vids, but that guy is not a centre back, no bravery, no jumping, no positioning and injury prone. He'll probably be good enough for the domestic league, but nowhere worldclass.

      @@ZealandonYT I hope you're right, it's truely interesting how every fm player has his own style and preferences and maybe he'll turn out amazing for you. I just got bad memories about players lacking these skills in that position in a kinda similar save in the Romanian competition. Still very exciting to see his progress!
