If you want chapters to be visible you need to begin with a 00:00 entry, e.g. 00:00 Intro. You may need to change the 1:15 and 8:00 to 01:15 and 08:00 format as well. Hope it helps!
Absolutely changed my game from "this was fun for a week" to my new obsession. I was so frustrated by the recruitment focuses giving me absolutely no information. It renders my hours and hours of meticulous transfer market scheming entirely useless because I don't know who to spend my profits on. UNTIL NOW! Amazing, thank you!
3:36 In my experience the inbox mail item with "I started scouting player X" already shows all the infos you want from that player, i.e. the stats, the scouting rating, the pros/cons, and so on. I often check in the list of scouting jobs to see if the scouts already have these infos available before they finish their 1 week scouting report, which they quite often do. This is especially important when the transfer window is open and every hour counts. 14:47 What I do is...I switch it to World, check out the list and when I am done I switch it back to zero. Cheesy but effective 😅. 29:49 Checking his history can often help in such a case. If he didn't exist when the game started (i.e. summer 2023 in this case) it's usually a regen. 31:10 As far as I know you can type in the field at the mid-right where it says "Add Condition" and type "contract" there. It will show you "Contract Status" among other matches and you can add it as condition and switch it to whatever you like, such as "Amateur". Then you can do the exact same thing again and choose "Non-Contract" and change the condition from AND to OR.
Don't forget- especially at lower levels- to take a moment and have your GM (or whoever you give the responsibility to) to suggest Transfers- Loans- Free Signings for positions (Under the Transfer Tab). At the very least you can trial the free and sometimes loan ones and usually they are improvements. In English lower leagues I love to have a Welsh GM, because I always seem to get one or two free signings that are impact players- that I can't scout yet- because of his knowledge. My compliments on the extensive coverage of this video- everything in it has value- excellent work.
One can always make it more difficult. In FM23 I signed only from West Yorkshire with Guiseley. i had like 50 players avaible to scout including Haaland. Tho most players did not want to sign for Vanarama North Guiseley😂. Lovely guide Matt. I usually restrict myself with like Sevilla I mainly have spainish players.
Very well explained for something which can be far too complicated!🤣 Out of curiosity, have you found more success with the recruitment focuses using the age ranges or scouting individual countries at a time? I personally used the country method last year, but found some countries wouldn’t yield many results (if any), so definitely going to give this a bash later 👍
@@jazzamattazz3647 Countries will give you a wider pool to fish in, review more players and get more results. Recruitment Focuses are much quicker and easier to manage if you don't want to spend the time clicking loads and yield good results but nowhere near the other two. The more scouts and knowledge you gain over a save and the more regens are added to the game, the more the gap gets narrower and the focus becomes very effective. Both methods still have to take into account the stature of the club, the focus just scales nicely and has less "lost effort" but at the cost of less players reviewed and thus found. Hope that makes sense.
With regard to the amount of trialists you can have at any one time, previous versions of FM allowed a lot more than 30 if you took the simple step of bunging them all into one of your youth teams - I've had literally hundreds on trial at the same time using this method in the past. Of course, they might have close the 'loophole' this year and you do have to be careful to do them in small batches of about 25-30 because they will initially go into your first team and fall foul of the limit. Once they arrive though, simply move them to another squad of your choosing and go get some more. Very handy at lower levels, again, if they haven't stopped it this year - I've not tested it in FM24 yet.
Just did a quick test on the full version of the game and you can still use this method to trial as many as you like, it seems. By 0800 on day two I had 79 trialists on the books! @@Secondyellowcard
There are ways to mitigate that. For a start, it only takes about 2 weeks to get a full report on a trialist so you don't need them there that long. Also, generally this would be done during the close season when there's every chance your players aren't being trained anyway. At most it affects things for about a month and at the level it's most useful at, training is almost useless anyway due to the part-time/amateur nature of the club. Ultimately, it's up to you to weigh up if the potential impact on training is worth possibly finding some free agent gems.@@cthulhudreams7578
Great video! Appreciate it, I've played FM for a long time but have been playing less the past few years, so just getting back into it with these videos is very helpful
Great video. Love the content. Note to myself though, don’t watch the episode of friends where joey moves out. Literally thought you were Eddie for a moment 🤦🏻♂️🙈
7:00 got lucky with Ramello Mitchell, he's on about 375 a week for me. If you can keep tabs on him and he still doesn't have a club by December he lowered his demands for me, assuming as he got to the point where he was bored of rejection and just wanted to play
31:20 once you add contract type you can add another contract type from the same apply conditions drop down and change it to “and” Another great video tho!
I think you can select amateur and non contact simultaneously by this way: In the “advanced “ options,you can choose the same filter twice (id. Division- premier league/division-serie A). In the rows that will appear ,on the left you can select the option “and” or “or”…if you select “or” you should find players who are in one of the two conditions
Awesome and comprehensive video. I've been using your methods throughout fm23 and the results have been great. One thing I'd add which is technically not scouting but the end result is the same. Director of football suggestions. Works extremely well in lower leagues when you don't have many scouts or the budget to do it. Basically ask DoF for free transfer suggestion for each position, trial those players to essentially fully scout them and repeat the process as much as you can. I find 2 week trial gives all the information but the wage demands will only be visible when he is released so maybe 3 week trial is indeed better. Especially since you can move them into youth team and bring in another 30 trialists. I've up to like 300 trialists at the club simultanously. Later on when scouting network and finances are a bit better you can also ask DoF for loan or transfer suggestions. They tend to offer some players which aren't on scouts radar.
@@Secondyellowcard It's generally my only source of players until around Championship or equivalent in other countries. Borderline broken in lower leagues, and also free.
One more thing i routinely do by habit- when the Top 50 Nxgen players are announced every year- I shortlist all of them. Most likely I have no chance at getting any of them anytime soon- but I have lucked into a couple of them two or three seasons down the line and they are game changers usually if I can actually get them to my side.
I also find you can use player agents to scout (to a limited and risky extent). I was playing in the lower leagues of Germany and was finding African players in less predominant countries playing for their national team who were on amateur, expired, or expiring contracts, I was able to go straight into contract negotiations. Oftentimes, their playing time demands are a rough indicator for how good they are. Obviously make sure they're definitely interested as some agents will use higher status as a way to entice their player to come to your club. But if they're very interested and wanting a high squad role, you probably found a good player. You can sign them and immediately do a quick scout before you confirm the signing but otherwise I think this is a somewhat labor intensive but cost effective way to find good players. And it doesn't have to be for African players but any free agents I imagine.
about the agent offers, i can’t get them into my inbox like u do in ur vods, and i don’t know why. i’m 6 season into malta build a nation save but i want also the scouting updates in my inbox. Any suggestions?
I'm very aggressive with my use of the Not Interested list, so I'm not re-scouting anyone I've scouted before. When I do youth team reports per your technique, anyone whose PA is too low goes straight to the Not Interested list, indefinitely. One way I leverage this is after a few years, once I have plenty of scouts and find myself running out of manual scouting based on youth national teams and so forth, I can just go to Players In Range, filter by age 15-19, and sort by Scout Recommendation reversed, then World Rep. Since the Not Interested list is filtered out of the Players In Range screen, I can add players to scout, who I don't have a report on, in big chunks of 30-50. (I'm not doing Build a Nation, so I'm only looking for enough players for my team rather than 3-4 other teams, so I can ignore more players sooner.) I wish I could have a skin/view that told me whether or not a player was on my Not Interested list! It really slows down my youth national team scouting to right-click on people and check whether they're on the Not Interested list.
With loans, I found if you wait until the week the season actually kicks off, suddenly everyone drops to wanting zero wages. Was usually around 5th/6th august in fm23 in England.
Great information, I’ve always played where I can see all the attributes so I can get through the game faster and don’t have to waste a lot of time but this time around I’m gonna mask it ! Thanx for the tips !
Note: for the "Get Team Report" option to be available in the Nation Team Scouting view, you'll need to have the team/country in your scouting range. I switch mine to "World" for a month or two then switch back after I get all the reports I want. On another note, awesome job on the skin. I keep finding new useful info in all kinds of places. It has ruined all other skins for me.
Thanks for your comment. It was the only place I found an explanation of why "Get Team Report" doesn't appear in the clubs I search for. As I have no budget for observation, my scouting range is zero. Now I've put it at least at a national level so I can have the reports. Thanks a lot again! ✅💡
I don't per se, but it's a simple fix, if you go into preferences, then skin, then skin colours you can change them in there. I don't touch the ranges but have the lowest set to red, then yellow, then green, then blue, makes life much easier when looking at lots of players :)
Downloaded all your views but can't see them in game ... yes ... I put them in the right folder. I have reloaded skin, changed skin, deleted and re-extracted ... same file name as the ones already in the folder but these do not work. 😖
There must have been a misstep somewhere as i've been using them this year without a problem, i wish i could be more helpful but they should just show up
Apparently once I’ve started scouting a youth intake wonderkid I cannot then sign them for compensation. My way around that is to sign the guys who have the highest variable transfer values.
29:55 Och so that's why I was constantly getting newgens with real faces when I was testing on only one country loaded and I don't get them now when I'm playing with almost all leagues loaded. Good to know.
Question: if I have a scout who is scouting Italy for example. If I do a search and the player is Italian, would it be better to assign the scout assigned to Italy or does that not matter?
Nah, at that stage it won't matter than much, the knowledge he had of Italy might give you more information up front, but i don't think it helps once you are actively scouting the player
What I don't get. If I offer a trial and the player accepts, why do I have to check a box again for accepting the trial? This is a waste of time, though there are enough already (this game is a click-generator).
Is it Amateur, Custom Role or National team for the specific player attributes in scouting? If its just one of them what are the other 2? Thanks for taking the time, effort & patience in creating these views, it's truly appreciated.
The one for manual scouting is the custom role views. national team is a view when looking at national teams, amateur is a more general view i use when looking at scouting :)
Any solution for the under 19s club scouting method when your scout gets poached by another club? After setting everything up and running for 1 season, I lost my scout to another club, then spent another 1-2 hours setting up scouting of 400 teams again only to find my new scout is getting poached by another club! Nightmare
This might be completely straightforward but I’m currently playing looking for some help with the grading system I’ve got 2 players who at scout recommended as A excellent signing and another A- terrific signing who would be the best?
I’ve been watching your videos for a few weeks now on my tv and I never realised that you only have 60k subs?! The videos you put out feel like 300-500k sub quality, Love them man, keep it up 🫡
Nope, in all my tests i only had Hungary loaded as the based nation, i had some other league's players loaded but not the countries themselves, the smaller database you have, the less effective this will be but it should still work
Do you know if it's possible to attend the Trial Day of other countries? Playing in England in a lower tier database and I was curious if I could go to Wales or Scotland for example. Tried searching but couldn't find it
Not to do with this video, but I have made a few staff changes with the Ingatestone editor for my current save. Is there anyway that I can save these changes so when ever I start a new save they always start with that team?
Hey Matt, maybe it's too late to get a reply now, but lets give it a try. Is there any way to get a team report of a national team in FM24? E.g. the Bolivian U20 squad
Than you for such a big effort. Only a question, I'm a beginner. I have a chief scouter,how can I get rid of him? He starts his own scouting and not mine!
not sure if he covered it in this video or another but click staff tab, then hover over responsibilities and click scouting, then make sure the assigning scouts tab is set to yourself rather than as that chief scout. Having the scouts is good as it can help you scout players identified by your perameters you just need to tell the scouts to let you decide perameters over them
Hi love your videos and going through your build a nation saves . Can I ask what league is best or relaxed on player rules . With your dB and scouting I want to start a long term save building a squad having a wonder kid farm. Any ideas and thanks again
Pretty much any league in Europe has more relaxed player registration rules than England but in particular Portugal, Belgium, The Netherlands and Denmark...France has a 4 'Foreigner' rule for matchday squads but really their definition of 'Foreign' is Britain and South America. Germany looks like an easy place to put together a team of foreign wonderkids because of their 99 player squad 'limit' but they have rules for European Competition where at least 12 out of the 25 man squad have to be German.
Your videos are very helpful and high quality with no doubt but please just avoid those fifa like thumbnail pictures they look dumb and embarrassing. Cheers!
Are you seriously saying, you come here to watch his videos and pretty much your main problem is ah well, this looks like an embarassing picture, but I click on it anyway... Please bro, If you dont like something, dont click on it.... Else, go and do it better....

High Adaptability on a scout helps if he isn't native to country- seems to scout more quickly.

Fantastic video. Would be great to know what your attribute colour settings our in terms of attribute rating threshold.
Where do you find the ‘Contract Type’ column? The one in contract then general shows different information.

I even tried 10x-ing the scouts wages and offering him chief scout to keep him but he left. I’m with Boston Utd in EPL but Villa and Brighton poaching
*Me who only scouts Greater London area for my AFC Wimbledon Save* : Interesting
make sure you keep the scout your using for team report method, otherwise you got to go through the whole process again
This might be completely straightforward but I’m currently playing looking for some help with the grading system I’ve got 2 players who at scout recommended as A excellent signing and another A- terrific signing who would be the best?
Pretty much no one comes up for me in the amateur non contract search, basically only Belgium players (I am playing as a Belgium team).
nice bed mate you are making me want to go to sleep lol great vid
Chelmsford town the local team played for them years ago
I'm still stuck with the bug where I can't view my team report priorities list. Ever come across this or find a fix?
When doing team report scouting, how do you choose which nations to do it for in the first place?
I just use high ranking national teams as a rule of thumb and then smatter in some extras that i know produce good talent
Just got the new fm and I can’t see how to scout competitions. Have they removed this?
I’ve been watching your videos for a few weeks now on my tv and I never realised that you only have 60k subs?! The videos you put out feel like 300-500k sub quality, Love them man, keep it up 🫡
Love the video! I’m fairly new to the game - are these views available to download if I play on Mac & Steam?
Do you need to have the nations loaded to find the players on amateur or non-contracts in the national teams?
Nope, in all my tests i only had Hungary loaded as the based nation, i had some other league's players loaded but not the countries themselves, the smaller database you have, the less effective this will be but it should still work
Can you get PA and CA ability stars in recruiment focuses if so how?
Do you know if it's possible to attend the Trial Day of other countries? Playing in England in a lower tier database and I was curious if I could go to Wales or Scotland for example. Tried searching but couldn't find it
Hey man, just wanted to ask cause I’ve downloaded the skin your using but it doesn’t seem to appear when I go to select it on football manager?
That's super odd, the .fmf file just needs to go in the skin folder and it should show up
Not to do with this video, but I have made a few staff changes with the Ingatestone editor for my current save. Is there anyway that I can save these changes so when ever I start a new save they always start with that team?
Hey Matt, maybe it's too late to get a reply now, but lets give it a try. Is there any way to get a team report of a national team in FM24? E.g. the Bolivian U20 squad
Can you tell us the coulour range please from 0-20 for the ( red , yellow , green ) thanks
I don't change the ranges, i just edit them so the bottom one is red, then yellow, then green, then blue
Than you for such a big effort. Only a question, I'm a beginner.
I have a chief scouter,how can I get rid of him? He starts his own scouting and not mine!
not sure if he covered it in this video or another but click staff tab, then hover over responsibilities and click scouting, then make sure the assigning scouts tab is set to yourself rather than as that chief scout. Having the scouts is good as it can help you scout players identified by your perameters you just need to tell the scouts to let you decide perameters over them
I don't have any of the U18 squads for some reason
Thanks for the filter views! Just a quick question, to set the customized view for a "Segundo Volante", which customized filter should I use?
hey thanks for the info, but should I set my chief scout to manage assignments or do that my self ?
Hi love your videos and going through your build a nation saves . Can I ask what league is best or relaxed on player rules . With your dB and scouting I want to start a long term save building a squad having a wonder kid farm. Any ideas and thanks again
Pretty much any league in Europe has more relaxed player registration rules than England but in particular Portugal, Belgium, The Netherlands and Denmark...France has a 4 'Foreigner' rule for matchday squads but really their definition of 'Foreign' is Britain and South America. Germany looks like an easy place to put together a team of foreign wonderkids because of their 99 player squad 'limit' but they have rules for European Competition where at least 12 out of the 25 man squad have to be German.
@secondyellowcard are the Custom Role Views backwards compatible with FM23?
great video, chapters arent working I dont think :(
Yeah youtube is being a bit weird about showing them for some reason, they are listed in the description if that helps :)
None of your download links work anymore :(
I went to secondary school with Richard Bryan hahaha
Bro. How did you talk for so fast for an hour straight like that haha.
Your videos are very helpful and high quality with no doubt but please just avoid those fifa like thumbnail pictures they look dumb and embarrassing. Cheers!
It’s what probably brought you here. They look dumb but they do the work to stand out on YT.
@@pzholdingsno the thing that brought everyone here is likely the fact this is the most recent scouting video out
@@pzholdings No.
I liked the thumbnail
Are you seriously saying, you come here to watch his videos and pretty much your main problem is ah well, this looks like an embarassing picture, but I click on it anyway... Please bro, If you dont like something, dont click on it.... Else, go and do it better....
Pretty sure I'm not colour blind . . . . Your using green and red . . . Not blue 13:28
Love your videos but absolutely hate that thumbnail artwork. It's nightmare fuel. :|
What’s up w the thumbnail tho Lmaoo why?
Because RUclips
That is a confusing thumbnail, haha.
This doesn't help console players sad times
Disabling attribute masking is cheating
It's a single player game, people can play it however they choose :)
