Half way through this play list and it’s massively helpful. I am getting back into FM after a 10 year hiatus and a lot has changed. I don’t like videos that give you tactics or AI glitches, I like to formulate my own ideas so these explanation videos are extremely useful in understanding the what, how and why to then use how I wish. Great work. That said, I do prefer the videos where you show in game footage to show how the players operate in game.

Ever since i found your channel u have been my number 1 fm channel for getting to know the game better. Keep up the great work and have a merry Christmas

I wish I would have found a channel like this when I was starting out FM back in 2016 , having to learn on the fly was frustrating. What’s great about this is these are things that new players or seasoned players could learn from! Keep up the good work

Your content has really added to my ability within the game and enjoyment of the game. Thank you!

Really really good work, massive!

This is pure gold. Thank you for putting out such clear info!

Been really impressed with your content, creating great videos that are well delivered and very informative. I think videos on Roles etc will always work well! Keep up the good work 👏

Bro you content is just the best! No clickbait just tons of useful info. Wish I could subscibe twice! Keep it going, you're gonna be big!

Thanks for the videos, always top quality!

If you upload more video everyday you will be a teacher for FM players xD, really your videos is simple to use and easy to understand really enjoy the video, i hope you upload more!

Thank you for making these videos, i'm new to fm and was having a hard time understanding these things, you explain in a lot of detail.

Thank you for these great videos. I subscribed your channel and I will watch all of your videos from now. Keep it up bro 🤙🏻 and Merry Christmas

These are awesome videos and they have given me an extra dimension to the game. Still got a few more of these to watch, but I've changed from "key highligts" to extended during games now and try to adopt my player roles to find those weaknesses in my opponents. It's great fun when successful and I haven't lost a game since I started doing this (leading my league when my target is "try to avoid relegation").

Nice one! Thanks mate! Keep it going :)

These videos are really good, reminds me of some of old Busthenet content..

Dude, these guides are excellent!

Great video as always. I really hope you do video about 2 dm or 2 cm roles and combination.

Recently discovered your channel and you are brilliant! You make it all so easy to understand. Would you be able to do a How to build a team around a Regista? Or to market it better, Create a Pirlo Team Tactic. I feel it will get a lot of views; as he was such a legendary creative player. I am currently trying this with Man Utd and using Beek, Ericksen, Mainoo and Gore as my rotating Registas! Its good fun to watch the midfield play so well! Just beat Real 3-2 in the last min!

One match that is quite memorable to me is when I play 4-4-1-1 against a hyper aggresive opponent and during the match I changed my TF/AM combo to TF/Treq. The opponent plays very aggresive gegenpressing and their transition is very dangerous. So I lower my defensive line and change AM-A to Treq. Then this happens: My TF receives a long ball from GK just a bit further from mid line and flick it on my Treq who is drifiting in the channel just behind the opposing DM. Since the opponents presses aggressively, one of their CD is occupied by my TF and my Treq make a run and take both their DM and the other CB to the side of penalty area. Then Treq slow down by cutting in to wait for TF to catch up then make a one two with him so that he is in better angle. Then my Treq scores. Most beautiful piece I've seen but never been able to actually replicate just due to FM and the nature of Treq. This happens in FM22.

The less versatile the role is, the more specific support it requires. The Poacher in particular will push up and press little. He'll rarely receive away from goal. He almost always just heads the ball down to someone else to deal with it, if he can't shoot. If you play him with a hold up striker that drops down, you have two players that don't dribble in center and the one that should be pushing the line up stops doing it as soon as he gets the ball. My best experience using him has been with attacking wingers that will run past him and striker partners on attack. If he's not shooting, he's just a passing pivot up top that can't do hold up, so whoever is running up and past him better be fast and near. A key thing I don't see much about forwards is the interactions with their support. As an example - the AF and others that move into channels (F9 does too) are far more successful with Wingers on support that whip crosses into space for them or send throughballs to get on to from the halfspace. Forwards like the Target Man/Poacher prefer a more direct delivery and will do better with aggressive dribblers who will look to run past them, or dribble inside the half space to then pass to feet/play a more direct cross. It's highly likely the reason your striker isn't scoring is up to being matched with inappropriate ball delivery. Some roles in the game look to find and use space, other pin opposition for their teammates to move into and find them.

Love your videos, good and perfect explanation 😁 what is your opinion to solve the engine when you haven 30 shots 1/3/5 goals, and the oponent have 1 shot 1 goal 😂 thanks

Opinions on TF with P

Dude, how do you know all this? Nice channel do, subscribe.

Very interesting. Could you tell me why in this years version my advanced forward doesn't get into advanced position very often? He scores mostly from crosses or cut backs, but i want my players to send him in behind the defence, but they are not often trying that although i have pass into space on. Is it because he's a lone striker and he's mostly against two defenders? I play with inverted wingers (1a, 1s) on the wing if that matters. Also, he gets too often into aerial fights, which makes him drop to 6.5 or 6.4 (or a missed clear cut chance). It makes him pretty much depressed around half time and i have to sub him out again cause he will not recover from it. It's a bit frustrating. Thank you.

👍

Brother knows his shit 🫶

What roles would you prefer for your wingers if you are playing with a pressing forward in attack duty? Inverted winger or winger?

Great videos. But what about central midfielders?

Simple striker go in 5 categories 1 goal scorers AP and Poacher 2.connect striker TM Dlf 3.techical striker F9 and treqartista 4.press foward 5 Cf.

(AF + TF supp) + mixed cross = All around performance..

A F9 must be able to play as CAM in order to get good star

Can you do something on team fluid if possible

FIRST!!

What about a dlf on attack?

Whats the maradona role? He was kinda a trequartista and a shadow striker at the same time or something like that

Still waiting for the dm roles
