Saving Saves that Randomly Got Bad
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- Everyone that plays Football Manager eventually runs into this feeling: you are chugging along, you’ve watched some FM tutorials, some tips and tricks, and your club is cooking FM like a Saturday barbecue… only to start losing out of nowhere. There is seemingly nothing you can do on Football Manager to turn your form around and what you did previously doesn’t work at all.
On FM this can happen after a new season starts, in can happen in the middle, it can happen at the end, and it will always ruin your day. What you have to do to fix this Football Manager challenge is first diagnose what is causing the poor run of form in the first place, because it is not always a poor bout of form necessarily. A few of the saves in this SYS give us a good chance to get you right.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

Would love a series of revisiting saves to see how well it went after they were saved
*if they were saved
We need proof!
Came for the saving your saves…stayed for the loan song!
You know I also came for the saves, but then I came again from the song! If you know what i mean..
came for the song, stayed for the saves

I think FM is a lot like driving. Bad habits are easily attainable and having a fresh set of eyes look at it helps you realise your mistakes.
More of the saving saves please!! Always love these videos Z 👍
I'm not sure we can keep taking Zealand's 'buy wonderkids, win the CL' advice seriously considering the last two Twitch saves he's been buying wonderkids and not winning the CL. Absolutely need to buy experienced, seasoned winners if you want to win the CL.
that was only because he's addicted to wonderkids and sells them once they develop into experienced, seasoned winners
he is correct in the sense that you could sign some seasoned winners towards the tail end of their career but they more than likely won't want to join due to the reputation of the league
Of course it would be great to sign a bunch of experienced winners in their prime. But that's impossible unless you're very rich, very high reputation, or, realistically, both.
When taking a team up the leagues, your best option is to sign high-potential young players who will either improve to world-class level as time goes on, or will increase in value and can be sold for a profit that can then be reinvested into the club.
Also, it's happened in real life. Porto, Ajax, Dortmund and Marseille have all won it that way.
It's a good advice which he himself is implementing kinda wrong. He is eager to sell every wonderkid the moment he gets a good offer. He doesn't really give time for players to establish some kind of core of the team, its all fluid in there. If you buy wonderkids and keep them at your club you'll eventually win CL if you are doing good tacticwise. Buying players in their prime is suboptimal, since it's just expensive. I was doing save in Poland last year and it took 10 seasons of continuously being in the Champions league and reselling cheap wonderkids for a profit before I could splash 40+ mil on a single player
Need a good combination. On my southhampton save i have a lot of what started as wonderkids, but i also have brought in players like Zaniolo, Kheprem Thuram and Anguissa on free transfers and they are what really makes the squad whole.
The first save hurt my brain
I'm glad I'm not the only one that picked up on the Stranraer pronunciation 😂
This is actually one your best SYS's, Z. Your analysis of the Sampdoria save was sublime, your explanations and emphases were lovely, informative and memorable.
*Always* play out of defense with a half-back. *Always*.
You should make a series explaining what kind of players do you need for different tactics. For example if you wanted to play 4-3-3 Liverpool stile, what kind of a forward, midfielders I want, etc. I know you mention these things all the time, but a systematic videos would be great.
Btw 7:12 next Keylor Navas.
Tell you what player you don’t want for liverpools 433….Darwin Núñez 😂
@@Derek-qu8qi he scored 67 goals in all comps for me in s2 (console edition if it matters)
@@Derek-qu8qi 0 ball knowledge
@@ranvir5576 I’m sure that made sense in your head
@@Milo_751 I was more referring to real life
Thanks so much for showing the location of "Keep scout reports up to date" I couldn't find it for looking and I kept clearing my scout priorities only to have them keep reappearing. My miniscule scout budget was obliterated
@S G no need to remove from the shortlist so long as you don't have the box ticked. Removing assignments doesn't work if that's ticked as they just get reassigned too. Obviously keeping shortlists trim and organised is a good plan as noone wants to scroll all that!
We need a series to see if these tips actually help. Like SYS- The Results type of thing, would be interesting to see
Stran-Rare? In Scotland? Today? Ooooh, me angina!
It also made me go RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH which should help him with the pronunciation
What he means by "Serie a is poor competition" is that Serie a doesn't provide that much cash. For example the winner of serie a gets at max 60 million while in comparision a bpl promoted team gets over 100m
That’s not poor. Scotlands winner gets 3m. That’s poor.
@@Derek-qu8qi It is poor if you take into consideration the fact that serie a takes probably the lowest money from winning and the money from tv rights it's small af compared to the other leagues
@@Derek-qu8qi you think that’s bad the league of Ireland entire combined prize fund is just €600,000!
But in the bundes they dont get tv rights like in the serie A, a new promoted club get at least 23 mln that they are gonna recive in the course of the year, the most important clubs get at least 50 mln
@@SchifName Yeah but still the serie a is still not that great when talking about money wise, it's a bloody joke. I always rated serie a above ligue 1 which i never liiked
Stran-RAR you philistine 😂😂😂
8:50 Annecdotally I can confirm scouting really young players in senior national teams can do wonders. In my current save with Sigma Olomouc in Czechia my star striker is Guatemalan and is absolutely at that world class level and I signed him at the age of 18 for $90,000 when I noticed he had 15 caps for Guatemala already. I also have a solid Salvadorian defensive midfield prospect who I signed at the age of 19 who had 13 caps for El Salvador when I bought him for $50,000 and though I don't think he'll quite hit that world beating quality he's still a solid player who I can probably sell to a top 5 league team for ~$20,000,000.
Stranraer, North of Scotland...there more like extreme south west Scotland...
Great vids, love your work and keep it up
I miss a SYS video! Let's go!
These are the most high-value videos you make, Z. Love SYS.
I had a bochum save where in the 1st season, I was 15th when winter break comes and the xG table suggests I should be 4th, now that is properly screwed. Still the second half of the season went better and we finished 7th(with the xG table still suggesting 4th overall but I'm very pleased with that already)
Zealand: "You can technically build a whole team with loans."
Me: "Go on."
I enjoy watching you talk tactics because I feel like I'm just guessing out there.
Suggestion: Try a save, starting in the 6th tier in England, simulate to the end of a season, and apply to all League Newbies.
Work only with Players from the Youth.
They will go through the fire for you. ( after a while 😁)
Training is mainly Body for start.
Endurance? might be the English word for Ausdauer. Sorry, not my mother language,
me's a Bavarian. 😉
Less losing in 6 th tier, if they have the second breath.

Take the Grey out players for start.

It is quite late here, hope I have been able to help you a little.
System bores you with CMs for start, and often Wingers, but you could easier "create' your" own system.
Read the Training Description for start for a position.
System will often try to get you to 4 2 3 1.
It is like a 4 5 1, less defensive, less Remis, less 0-0.

Good night! 💤
Next title better be Saving Saves to Save the World.
The scouting budgets is just a bit broken in this years game, If your in debt like the first save it wont let you scout anyone as your out of budget but if you put them in your shortlist it will scout an unlimited amount of players.
They really need to fix it so once you in debt the scouts stop scouting every player in your shortlist until you have the budget to afford it again.
These are always the best, my fave videos
I swear you are the only fm tuber out there doing this and it's so good to learn from
Such a fun video. Cheers man. Love your content
Stranrare :D
Stranny are fun. One of the coldest stadiums I've ever been to. Once the game was finished a load of kids just ran on the pitch and started to play!
finally a football manager video
I KNOW BIGMANONCAMPUS!!!! Let’s gooooo
I don't agree Z, high back line and mid block is one of the most consistent defenses in this game. Probably the most consistent way to have a high back line. The problem would be that they didn't put "step up more", because you want to compress more and press the other team in that reduced space. Also you need defenders that can pull it off, intelligent and fast ones. They would need to see if they have what's needed.
The first save is the "Help, my family is dying" meme where the guy spends 3k on candles
To be fair to him that keep reports up to date thing being default is new
This is helping a lot just to get a better grasp of the game!
That pronunciation of Füllkrug was great. Like + subscribe.
we need more of saving saves!💯
yes. please do more fm content. would love to see your take on scouting in fm 23
i just started playing a few weeks ago, won carabao and came runner up in ucl and fa cup then tanked my second season and got fired…133 game unbeaten run in his first go is insane😭 started a newcastle save after that and i’m doing well in my second season now, mostly thanks to these videos lol
This first save saved me in the danish second division with -500k debt because of scouting :(
Oh, an actual Football Manager video. Nice. 😉
I'm addicted to sys!!!
Good luck to the dinamo guy because winning the champions league is one of the most difficult things in FM always
Love your videos ( Stranraer is the south of Scotland )
your voice just amazing
I got a tickle outta you saying stranRARE Z 😂 hope you have a Scottish save shortlisted for the future maybe one with the extra leagues and take Tranent Juniors who have 500 turn up to match days to the CL or restore Clydebank to the top division again 👍🏼
The scouting expenditure in that first save seems like a front to me 🤔
You know it’s a happy morning, when the country you are from, Uzbekistan (the country a lot of people actually don’t know about and confuse with Pakistan or Kazakhstan) is being mentioned in Zealands video ☕️☕️
Are you from pakistan?
Its so easy to forget 'Keep scout reports up to date', even after all those years playing FM... in my last save I noticed some wild spending. My 5 short lists had it still ticked on... I wish they made it that by default its ticked off and you actually have to do an effort to enable it.
First time playing fm23 , 133 games unbeaten but I’m insecure about my tactic ? How many times u think this guy re loaded his game to make that happen .
Oh, so many times.
Why wouldn't he reload his losses in the cl
You’d have to spend days reloading
The first one is pronounced Stran RAR, but they way Z says it is incredible haha
Enes sali carried me in Palermo. And I had baturina. That Zagreb guy and I 🤝
Just hit 10 years in my rosenborg save and lost the ucl final on pens
oof. so sorry
14:47 your editor forgot to change the background from Werder Bremen to Sampdoria
Whoops
I saved my save last night 3rd year at Brighton almost got relegated year 2 now Im 20 games in 2nd in the League Im new to the game and love it
"Stranrare" killing me Z
First save just needed the FM Editor to change Stranraer's finances and he'd be good to go
Yeah every save would be fine if people cheated.
Hurlford united in a Zealand video. Crazy.
Stran Rare - classic Zealand. Never change my guy 😉
Scouting 34 million ppl
WE WANT MORE SYS VIDEOS
*sings* Can we fix it? No, it's f*cked!
I remember beating Monaco in my first UCL campaign with Slovan Bratislava
Zealands Key Issues
Editor unable to spell 😂 6:07
Do you do show off your saves? Nice to see other end of the spectrum .
Wolfsburg manager. Add tight marking & tackle harder to each player instructions. Play shorter passing
i'm curious do you ever save a save and play it a little to see how well you might do taking it on from that point?
Guys please help me budget, I'm really struggling!
Rent: $2000
Food: $300
Utilities: $400
Netflix: $15
Scouting: $300,000
Please do a video showing if your saving saves actually work or not. If they didn't work then why they didn't work
Think Dr benji could do with your help lol
As a Scot I liked he said Stranrare
Stranraer
For that Dinamo Zagreb save you need to raise your Croatian 1. division status in the EU so you can attack CL so lone your 3* team to your rivals and help them go far away in EL and EC. When this happens for 3-4 seasons you can go for CL before that semis of CL is the best you can get.
Anyone feel like this is the hardest fm tactics wise? This is the most ive experiment with tactics in any fm and nothing seems to work
"Keep scout reports up to date" is something I hate being on by default. For a tiny amount of high importance targets .. sure. But for most of the players i am just keeping tabs on them. Stupid FM.
Make a second shortlist with only the top guys and set that to auto-renew. Each shortlist is separately checked. Learned this the hard way when my scouts racked up 600k of debt scouting my end of contract trials list
@@symptomofsouls Oh I do. My problem is with FM making the shortlist have the option ticked by default. It should start unticked and be opt in.
@@thebiglebrowski3695 agree. Starting a save with Alemannia Aachen (Regionalliga West)
Home of the sweaty helmet.
The person from the first save is an absolute degenerate and I love it.
Z I’m wondering if you do Console saves or not cause I’m a new player and i want to know how to push into Europe more I finished in 6 Th then 5th I’m my first two years at losc but and it’s my third club but due to my own choose
Every video Z talks about upgrading your scouting... this video starts with a 2 minute rant to NOT SCOUT PLZ
"Manolo Gabbiadini is a really not great player." Leave him alone. His cruelly denied hattrick in the EFL Cup Final is proof of Zealand being wrong.
Season ticket holder at Stranraer my big save every year best I done was 8 premierships in a row
I just got back to FM recently and why your interface have so much more detail than mine? 😅
It is the skin, the Zealand skin, there is a link in the video description.
@@thargoff ty mate ! Ill check it out
To be fair, I also missed that keep scouting uk to date box…
12:10 Let's be honest here. That guy isn't good enough to be goalscoring threat at Bundesliga. I just can't see him as goalscoring threat with 12 finishing and 12 composure. I would give benefit of the doubt if he plays as F9, DLF, TF, or maybe PF, but definitely not as AF
6:56 bro did a Mamic
Like the video so he can do more 🙏🏽pls guys
Is it true that you have to up the tempo when the opponent is harder? I always thought you put it lower, so your team slows down the play and you wouldn't overturn it easily. Maybe i'm getting it wrong.
Yes. Tempo dictate how fast the ball goes from your own box to opponent box. For example, you are on counter attack and your player has 2 choices: risky, over the top pass to your striker; or safe, diagonal pass to your winger. With high tempo he is more likely to do the risky pass, while with low tempo low tempo he is more likely to do the safe pass
@@Brazio20 Thank you.
I have a question. Is it bad to only have one Formation. I am using a 4231 and only rotaed between high and normal defenceline and play to wings or from the back
If it works then its good 👍🏼 but always try out back ups though.
I usually only run 1 formation, with occasional tweaks to roles. Whenever I run 2 formations usually my team forgets how to play 1 of them
I took over a club in the Relegation zone, got them up to 7th in 10 matches and 10 months later I was fired for being stuck in the Relegation zone
At least I got to the league cup semis
Sabiri is the same as dembele in the past at Dortmund, he striked to get Nürnberg to sell him. Hate him since....
The 50NXG about 3 or 4 lists in is great you find the best youth players about to leave their clubs or run down their contracts hit these clubs with compo and the players with decent ratings
I found about 15 yth players all less than 7months on pltheir contracts cost me about 10M for these players intotal and some were already 4.5 str rated
Best part is you can basically hit that whole list for buttons as the best players are always heading for their contracts ending and comp is the minimum payment needed most being 1-3M
Please please please watch people play FM on twitch again. That was so funny.!
Stranraer is nowhere near the north of scotland
anyone know how to win away games. same thing has been going on for years. win at home, lost away etc no matter how familiar the tactic and how good morale and cohesiveness is. becoming boring and predictable
how do i enter my save into saving saves? cus we are broke and i cant improve my team people are unhappy, we got good results but i dont think they will last
also i need better staff, like every single position but i dont really know how too
Post on the old Zealand Reddit, you'll get help. Also, you can advertise for staff roles. I generally don't worry about money, just stick with the boards budgets, sell a few players if you need money now.
great helmet
Anyone know what the background music i?s Its' catchy as!
Keep this tactic, just change instructions, maybe use libero or wide cb, definitely bomb more your wing backs and use a direct football
It's stranrarrggghh like a lion 🦁
Not stran rare like uncommon
YEAH!!!
Whats this new feature you have added for FM??????? Release the video!!!! lol
