HUGE shoutout to Readthemeade who is a great database guy for the channel. He is a maestro in the Football Manager backchannel and his passion project is finally done. After insisting it should be named something else, Read went with the Zealand American Database. My name sounds good or something, shoutout to my parents. This is a database that could change your experience on this FM and FM’s into the future.
It is incredibly detailed. There is a complex, dynamic promotion/relegation system that starts regional and goes up to national. There are over 1000 teams, all of which are real or realistic (explained in the video). You can have a grind to the top save, you can try to bring an old club to glory, bring a native club to the top, coach a college team, or just play out of an integrated MLS in Football Manager now. Let me know what you think!
Much Love,
FM Senpai

Yes it will be maintained for FM22
thats a poggers from me
One more reason for me to get FM22 after 19 was my last one 😄
Is it on the steam workshop?
Will it work on fm20?
Do a save on one of the teams!
Definitely going to give this a try but when I do, I'm renaming some of the leagues with more appropriate sponsors.
Welcome to the "Manscaped Premier League", the "Nord VPN American Cup" and the "Raid: Shadow Legends Championship Northwest Division".
Coach Zealand should have scouting knowledge in the countries where Twitch streamer Zealand has played saves ie Belarus, Colombia, and Portugal after this season.
This is insane. This is so insanely cool. I feel like the Twitch FM22 save has gotta be with the updated version of the database next year, it'll be so so so cool.
I second this. Please use this database as a twitch save
@@lardlad12 he talked a bit about IMG in Florida and I would love to watch that save!
@@f.f5771 that would be cool as hell.
when oriental dragons is done it would be sick to see you do a save in this
I agree! what better way to showcase a database than on Twitch! Also makes for an awesome storyline to be invested in, like I have been in the OD save, to take a lower league murican team all the way to the top!! (especially if it's a college / uni team for added challenge)
he will probably do that for FM22
This is "The American Dream" applied to footba.... soccer! Really awesome work in the database. Realistic with the teams and the Americanism of playoff and the teams present in every league. This needs to be known!
You need to do a group save with other developers on this database! Also with the creator of the database. Would be great to see.
Doubt it’ll happen unless they fix it for online play, I tried doing an online save on this and it crashes every time you try to add a manager
As an Aussie who avoids A-League saves because of the rules, I've avoided playing MLS for the same reason. I'm a big American sports fan too. As a (sad after this morning) Baltimore Ravens fan, I think I may jump on this as my final FM21 save. This database looks fantastic, well done to all involved.
same... MLS is avoided for the same reason. I've just started as the Alamo City Sporting Club.... Go Spurs Go!
As a fellow Aussie - I wish the a-league had a database like this. This is great!
@@XelaaEdits I saw one somewhere and I downloaded it, but it wasn't promotion to the A League or anything like that. And sadly, it didn't work anyways. Wanted to get the Ballarat Red Devils to the top league
@@XelaaEdits there are a few pro rel databases available for Australia. I personally have been making Australian databases since 19. I have made a database for 21 that goes to the seventh tier (for some states) and will be releasing one for 22 which will hopefully have at least 8 tiers
@@zaif4200 have you got a link for the database?
'Have you ever wanted to play as the US in football manager?' usually the opening rhetorical question is meant to engage us, not make us run for the hill ;)
I downloaded this database and had a stupid happy grin on my face the entire time I was scrolling through the team lists, I'm so excited to get into this
I feel like I'm more addicted to watching Zealand videos than playing football manager.
I knew I should've gone with cocaine
My mans really said “Virginia” when West Virginia University was shown. Jokes aside this is super cool and impressive, amazing work Reed and Zealand.
After winning the Netflix League Two Big Sky Conference and the Gat Miller Trophy with Sioux Falls Thunder in my first season, I declare this endeavour a triumph! Thank you Zealand!
Lol when you get to Netflix Championship
I'd love to see some NA esports teams have their own teams. It'd feel like things had gone full circle. Also absolutely love that Native American teams were included. It just feels right.
That would be cool and realistic
Cloud9 FC, FaZe for example
Incredible work done by Reed!! Thank you to him and team Zealand giving us all a chance to play in one the most complicated league systems out there 😅🤣
it seems pretty straightforward in how it works, I think IRL football pyramids with region splits are more complicated
Awesome idea Zealand, thanks for all the time and effort that went into this. US Road to Glory save coming up ... :)
This is a brilliant database and basically what I search for every year without fail... I've still never played in the US though! Generic league names would've been absolutely fine, but the level of detail is fantastic!
Couple of questions, though. This is very late in the FM21 lifecycle to get into such a detailed new game. Is this going to be maintained for future versions of FM? Secondly, are there any plans to keep building the project on a holistic level (e.g. FM'12 custom kits)? Finally, are derbies built into the database (particularly considering the huge level of customisation)?
That's what I wanted to ask as well lol. Hopefully we'll get some answers :D
If I read the description of the video correctly, I think that that will be the case
@@joelsmidts Nobody reads the description
It's out for FM22 :)
As someone who is familiar with the MLS draft system it’s similar to Aussie Rules, it just doesn’t work properly in FM.
The ‘youngsters’ that get drafted are always 21 and therefore ancient by FM standards.
Oh this has got my attention. As an Aussie an AFL style draft could be fun in FM
They're also very rarely of any use quickly. Maybe you can get someone for a cup competition but thats about it normally.
This mod is amazing. It would be incredible if you merged the USA league and the Canadian Premier League into 1 big North American pyramid. Top division is MLS, second is Canadian Prem teams, and then it could go down like this, but including more Canadian teams as well. I was excited to see some Canadian teams because of the merged NHL/MLB teams, but more would be amazing.
Thoroughly enjoyed this database on FM21. Took charge of my hometown Phoenix Rising, and it's awesome. Thank you for the hard work!
How awesome! As a fellow American, I appreciate this a lot
This is such a great video because at the start... like just about everyone else I'm sure... I was thinking "why in the hell would anyone want to play this?" and by then end I had it downloaded. Well done Zealand. Hype master!
Never been interested in modding fm before, but this seems so creative and fun I'm definitely going to try it!!
Bro the inclusion of all American sports franchises as Sporting Clubs is a great idea. It seems real world practical cuz it likely wouldn't cost too much for them to create a cheap, lower league team. And the benefits of supporting a lower league team would increase significantly as the team gets more popular and wins more games. Imagine telling the billionaire owners of any of these franchises that "you could have a second billion dollar franchise, you just need to spend a couple hundred thousand a year."
Also, it would cultivate interest in the sport. Diehard Yankees fans have an immediate rooting interest in lower league soccer. Smart shit. Now I want this to happen in real life,
Did you know that European clubs do this? Real Madrid, etc. have their own basketball, etc. teams. To be honest, I'm surprised that this hasn't happened in the US
The Yankees already have an irrelevant team playing in their stadium NYCFC, don’t think you need two 😉😉😉😉
Getting my Carolina Panthers to the CONCACAF was a dream I never knew I had. Absolutely brilliant work.
Me, three days ago: Wow, I'm really enjoying this final save of the FM21 cycle... I sure hope some RUclipsr doesn't come up with something that will make me want to abandon this save...
Me, now: Aww Beans...
Great idea and a nice timing with Football Manager 2021 cycle coming to an end. I think I might have something to do in FM until 2022. Thank you for the work!
This is amazing. I’ve been wanting to do a US save for years - especially with my Alma Mater UConn Huskies! Can’t wait to play this.
Its my birthday tomorrow but this surprise gift has arrived a day early. I played some custom American database back in FM11, but this looks like next level quality. Jumping in now...thanks!
Lol and the Phoenix Monsoon, a team that existed more in the mind then they did on the field, made it into the db
I am sitting here minding my own business and you decide to drop this database on me. I liked sleep before this. I hope you're happy.
Amazing work Zealand, Read and everyone involved! Most certainly gonna give it a go
Since this is being carried over to FM22 it would be cool to see you take a team from the very bottom to the top of this database on twitch as the main save next year.
Hey all, I've been playing this database for a while, I'm about to get to my fifth season in my first save (started with FC Dallas because I prefer to develop talent and they focus on that heavily) and I would absolutely recommend.
The roster rules can still be a bit tricky (not nearly as bad as MLS, but you mostly have to use non-Mexican North American players due to a cap on foreign players) but they really allow you to do a lot of what you'd do in other leagues. Within two seasons in my save, the MLP surpassed the talent level of Ligue 1 as a whole (!!!) and it is steadily climbing its way through the ranks of what US soccer could be. The cups are really fun (though I've only ever gotten a favorable draw in the round of 64 by some curse of luck) and the playoffs ensure that, even if a team is dominant in regular season, they aren't guaranteed the trophy, though three games total is a lot easier to get through than potentially 7 games like MLS has currently.
I only just got my first triple (I've been getting a lot of really good youth that has grown super well in a few seasons and the landscape of what the top 3 leagues look like right now is fascinating. Here's some team spots that you might not have expected after half a decade:
San Antonio FC comfortably in Premiership (Austin also up, so 4 Texas teams!)
Phoenix Rising FC fighting relegation in the Premiership
DC United fighting relegation in the Championship
Chicago Fire FC stuck midtable in Championship
Orange County Soccer Club and New England Revolution constantly fighting for promotion in Championship
El Paso constantly fighting for promotion in United League
Green Bay Packers started in Prime Division, and are now fighting for promotion in United League
Some crazy things happen in this country in game and I'm probably gonna start another save once I win every trophy I can with FC Dallas (besides the Club World Cup, not trying that this save). Thinking of playing with FC Pittsburgh Penguins, my favorite hockey team. I was gonna do a Derby save, but this has been a lot of fun!
Thank you for creating this Reed, and thank you for sharing it Z!
"We've made the USA system easier" still the most confusing thing I have ever heard
it is quite confusing even for me a american
It’s basic relegation and promotion. No weird financial rules or player drafts that I can see.
@@ThreeRunHomer oh so if you win your league you get promoted automatically? 🤥😜
@@TheGroundHopper yes, as it should be.
@@harveycooper5098 pretty sure he said there were play offs to get promoted between the top 8 of the top 12 teams - shows its not as easy as you think 😂
This database looks sick. Props to Read and Zea to have this done.
Sweet Cuthulu ... This is the rant a go on 3 to 4 times a month and all my friends look at me like im crazy.
Its the tier system that makes soccer great, the fact that everyone can get invested in there local club, and there is always room to grow.
Thank you this sounds like this data base has unlimited saves and stories .. 100%
Wow! I thought Lollujo's version of this was good, but this is soooo much deeper. I'll deffo be replacing that save with this one for what will probably be my last FM21 save. Thank you Reed. Detroit Arsenal for Champions. Lol
Well Done guys! Thats seriously impressive stuff. I played an American tier system database this year but its not on this level. I am excited to get stuck into this. Respect.
Naaaaaaaaaah. Zealand you've absolutely out done yourself with this one. My mind is blown.
This looks awesome! Perfect DB to play between now and FM22, thank you to all involved :-)
This looks absolutely amazing. Thank you Read.
A couple questions;
How does recruitment work for colleges? Do they recruit them from high schools and academies or do they get a Youth Intake? If they get a Youth Intake, how do Youth intakes work?
Also, is there a drafting system?
Are you asking for in the game or irl?
this is so fucking cool. I have never seen a project on a database this big and detailed before. insane work
Dear God.... my brain. The amount of tweaking and testing that must have gone into getting dynamic relegation to work. Even after all the explaining, I can barely wrap my head around how it works, let alone what that must have been like to actually edit in the database. And you have so many teams... I've created my own USA database before so I know what goes into this. This must have been an absurd amount of work. I can't wait to play it.
This is why i support ya on twitch! Great content, cant wait to try it on FM 22!!
This is great work! Can't imagine how long it took. I was debating whether to continue my current save until the FM22 beta or start a new save and I think this has answered my question 😁 good work
Always love your intros!
Been playing all night. This is amazing!
Going from the bottom tier up is pretty difficult, but it's very entertaining
This is genuinely unbelievable. Spectacular work to all involved.
This is brilliant, can't lie!! Thanks man some unreal saves will come from thjs
This is the greatest news in FM history for an American! Thank you!!! Also, is there anywhere we can donate for the creation of this?
Just started with the Mariners' club! (Thank you Secret Base) This looks amazing!
I’m not interested in the USA league but I must say this is fantastic, keep up this kinda stuff as it’s super cool and if I was American I’d be all over this. Awesome awesome stuff kudos
Thanks Zea, this is too good and detailed you've gotta have this on FM22 too
Definitely would love to see more database like this done, keep up the good work
This is cool but it's super challenging if you're a person that builds up clubs from the lowest possible tier. Kudos to all of you! A Yeoman's effort!! Well done!! Thank you!!
This is insane, can't imagine the amount of work that went into it. looking forward to giving it a go :)
This is incredible
This is insane. Awesome project, well executed! 👍🏿
This looks amazing, Z! Will absolutely check it out
That is amazing! Congratulations. I think I'm gonna give it a try.
Great idea. The only issue (and it's only a real life/realism issue) is that a winter schedule puts their games head to head against the NFL and college football (NBA too, to a lesser extent. No one cares about the NHL 😜). As any American knows, that's a death wish. Even with the backing of the sports leagues. Just ask the WNBA. But I totally understand it as a concession to gameplay.
Do you have traditional connections though? For example, would the Boston Red Sox team have Liverpool as a senior affiliate (due to common ownership)? Or the Inglewood team with Arsenal. Or the Tampa Bay team with Man United? IMG Academy would be highly sought after as an affiliate for big European sides. The whole project sounds awesome though. I just started a 'little brother challenge' save with Paris FC so now I'll have to find time for yet another challenge!
You've done the impossible, you've made me want to play in the USA. Starting a game now, well done this is seriously awesome.
This is wild and crazy and I kinda love it. Respect the Parks and Rec ref as well
Wow, amazing work, now I have a good idea on what save to do next, thanks!
New Orleans Saints safe is happening, leeeeets go, amazing work you guys, I'm incredibly excited to play this
If you ever wanted to play in the MLS but thought it would be too complicated. Here is a File which makes everything even more complicated. Seriously though. I love it
Love the 'trickle-down economy' equivalent of a league format
This is amazing! I've got to ask will you guys be planning to add this database onto FM22? If so, how long do you think it will take to implement? Great work Readthemeade
Posting this in case someone else encounters a similar issue.
In the "advanced setup" stage, I was unable to select the United States. It said there are too few teams at each level. Went back and made sure it was the only mod selected. One of the other databases I had downloaded kept turning itself on in that menu.
My favourite thing about football is that it provides an opportunity for cultural education and broadened global awareness. The fact that Zealand gets what's so funny about the combination of giant hamburgers, enormous novelty styrofoam pointing fingers, pyrotechnics, cheerleaders and F-16s performing a halftime airshow is kinda heartwarming.
so impressive, looking forward to play in it honestly
This looks Unreal!! ReadTheMeade has killed it!! Hopefully it works in Fm22? Would love to watch this as your next save.
If college teams were included in this kind of setup in real life, they’d probably be powerhouses! They already have professional coaches and state-of-the-art physical training facilities. And many of them have huge stadiums available to use. And they have huge built-in fanbases. The “forever amateur” thing is even under assault now. 👍🏼
I don't know if the huge stadium would be a plus in reality. Outside of the World Cup, I can't see anyone filling Michigan Stadium or AT&T Stadium for a soccer game. You'd make tons on concessions though (modern US stadiums are essentially shopping malls and entertainment districts nowadays, with So-Fi as the most recent example).
This is amazing! Great work Zealand & Co
This definitely looks intriguing. This will have to be my FM22 career start. And you probably just ensured I buy FM22. Because I was doubtful.
Intro: Coke is a powerful drug
Electric City Is Scranton, PA. Home of the Office USA if anyone is interested
Please do a series on this ASAP.. if not this year maybe it can be your main series in next years game
Also, if you aren’t doing a save for this file.. is there any other youtubers doing it?
This is awesome! But I will say I love playing the MLS. Complicated…. But super rewarding. Let’s go CLTFC 🙌🏼
I'm starting to think that Zealand is Football Manager's version of Neo... 🤩
I wasn't that interested until you mentioned the major sports league teams. As a huge KC Chiefs fan i will definitly start a save with their team!
This is just AWESOME, this will finally make me have a new primary save
I did something similar once back in FM15/16 in Mexico, but not as much depth as this one. Sounds like an amazing project to develop, and to play with.
Definetly Will be testing this one with the Seattle Mariners Football Club.
This will be my save for 22. Detroit City is goin' up!!
It's beautiful! Can't wait to get started with RGVFC
I actually played with one of these teams when I lived in the US lol, This is going to be EPIC
I may be the exception, but what would make me want to play FM in the USA is its bizarre structure and rules. If I wanted to play a giant conventional pyramid structure, I would play in England. Anyways, great work!
I loved dominating for houston dynamo for 3 years before going to europe to manage want to go back soon as a retirement home.
Well, I'm def gonna download it, It'll be fun to take the Riverhounds to the top and win all the silverware and finally win the CONCACAF Champions League with a USA team. Honestly guys, I'm pretty sure that system would "fix" US Soccer sparking more interest in the sport thus leading to more success
I downloaded the mod and installed it. I'm from the Pittsburgh and had hoped to use the Riverhounds also. I'm curious if and how your game went. I'm new to the FM game and not sure how to improve without spending budget.
I once made a similar database where the 3rd tier in France had 3 parallel leagues; the Algerian, Tunisian and Moroccan top league. French teams could be relegated in and out of them and if an African team got relegated from the 2nd division, they went back to the correct nation's league. This meant that an African team could play CL too. It was a lot of effort and so I really appreciate the work put into this!
You and Reed the freaking Meade are legends
Definitely feel more full time impregnation with this Database can't wait to try out. For me the real American league structure gets me all confuzzled especially with designated player wage cap 👌
This looks... amazing. I'm not all that experienced in FM. I'm on my first save in FM20 right now managing Sunderland and having fun but once I am done with this one I am going to pick up fm22 and maybe just go ahead and dive into this database because it seems incredible and I've always wondered what it would be like if the US had a legit league system for soccer.
Goddamnit Zealand. I did not need fm21 for nearly it's whole lifespan. Now I want it.
been playing this for a few weeks now. it's surprisingly good
Is there a place to submit any bug reports? XF Redmond in the Cascadia Championship and Washington SC of Cascadia League 1 are the same organization in real life. They have just operated under different names.
i love the names of the leagues so much
Wow a burlingame dragons logo…. Never would of thought I’d see them anywhere
Awesome idea, though you get some fun circumstances like the overload of teams in Tampa, and things like the fact that the Rays already own the Tampa Bay Rowdies.
Cool format! I would tweak it though so bottom half of the league compete for 1/2 playoff spots, maybe done as a wildcard extra round thing, and the top half only has 6/7 spots. Gives midtable teams something to play for when they're clear of relegation in the second half of the season.
I'd also do more playoffs for promotion rather than direct promotion- maybe 1/2 get directly relegated but the other 2/3 playoff with their corresponding team/join the lower league's playoff promotion tournament. That seems more American style to me
Would be awesome to see a set up for an all Ireland 🇮🇪 structure database with Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland to a realistic joint league! Great video
