How to Scout with No Money

Ever gone to scout in Football Manager, only to realize your scouting range is too limited? No money left? No scouts at all? No problem on FM20! I have compiled a list of tips to help you find great players on the cheap. The art of the trial, raiding youth national teams, coach scouting knowledge - all can change the way you play FM.
Being able to find players while limited can give you a huge advantage over the rest of the league, whether you are amateur or close to a world scouting program. I personally value talent discovery and acquisition as the most important thing in Football Manager, so in order to thrive consistently, you have to be able to get the wonderkid in every situation.
Much love,
FM Senpai

When I'm managing at an L1/L2 level I invite so many players on trial that the UN has to investigate me for human trafficking charges. I'm mean you can't let the Premier League, Barca, PSG, Real rejects slip through, every now and then you find a golden nugget not good enough for PSG/Barca with five-star potential model citizen personality and 20 determination.

Note about using youth national teams to scout: This isn't just true for small clubs. I've found more future first team players by using this strategy in my Chelsea save than I have via my scouts. It's particularly useful after the first season as a way to find good regens.

@arthurterpstra3078 4 года назад

Pretty helpful this! If you are managing a team in the UK probably good to set a filter on second nationality: UK. Furthermore I would like a video on promoting from championship to premier league. A whole new world opens for you, but it's kinda overwhelming. What should you manage first? Build bigger stadium? Go sign a lot of new players? Spend on a few really good ones? Change tactic to defensive and adjust your team? Etc. Etc.

@PuseyEric 4 года назад

Love ur vids. There is one additional scouting method I use: COACHES!!! I've used my coaches, fitness coaches, GK coaches ... any coach ... with high enough Judging Player Potential (and that's relative in the lower divisions) to scout my players when I'm in charge of some broke-ass lower division team. What they will do is weed out the half star and one star duds. Anyone who might be interesting, I reserve my scouts for them.

Great vid again Zealand. Could you do a video on negotiating please?

@Soewe1 4 года назад

(aside from the tips in the video) At the semi-pro level I used the following scouting strategy to get myself to higher leagues: 1. Assign scout as 2nd job for all staff. Most staff you can get is abyssmal, so sign more of them. Instead of the 1 part-time scout you now have 10 part-time scouts. 2. Sign youth level released players from top division clubs. Most will be direct starters for you depending on the division you play in.

@mikedorn549 4 года назад

One aspect you could have included is to tap your Director of Football for suggestions. I do this for every new start (before I have scouts) - on day 1 I will ask for suggestions for free signings at every position I am sure to need improving (usually pretty much all of them). Then I leave him to search for players worthwhile to add to the club and sign them (in responsibilities section), but I keep final contract approval in my hands for the times when his player/salary doesn't make sense in my plans for the club. In my current Whitby save (playing Dafuge Challenge), the DOF has found me 3 very good players that I wouldn't have found on my own and they are all integral to the club as we move into League play in our 4th season.

Great video again man - really useful! I have one question about scouting though. I’m in my third season and my Director Of Football / General Manager used to sign some good young & cheap players for the U19’s in the first half of my first season but then just stopped completely and he hasn’t signed anyone since then. I haven’t changed the staff responsibility, do you know any other reasons why that might be happening? 😬

@Hyde_Hill 4 года назад

A tip you forgot, especially if you do use attribute filtering, is increasing the player and youngster knowledge of your manager when using smaller clubs. This will give you more players and more knowledge of said players to start of with.

Depends on the club i guess, in bigger clubs it's harder to buy them for bargain price even if you make their morale abysmal lol. An even richer clubs would resign them for large contract even if the players are just 17 yo, kinda realistic...

1. Go to the home page of any playable League 2. Click on News > Transfers You will see a list of rumours about signings and loan targets, possibly even your own club. You can now consider poaching these targets, nice little way to find players that might play in your leaugue. Basically getting the media to scout for you.

Hey Zealand where do you find the offer trial tab in staff responsibilities? I wanna change it from 1 week to 2 weeks...

@Hyde_Hill 4 года назад

Handy trick as well if you don't consider it cheating. Scout players that are willing to come to you that are wanted by bigger clubs then you (or just as big if at the top).

@Hyde_Hill 4 года назад

Much better way for your triaslist not to impact your coaching staff and team spirit. Dump them in the u18. This allows you to offer them a trial longer then a week so you can get full knowledge without any real negative impact. ( Any talented youngster trains with the u23s/B team for me, u18 is the dumping ground.) Now you can have a lot more triaslist around. PS Clicking offer trial in the bottom corner on scouting screen limits it to one week in older versions of fm, as there was no default trial length. So instead right click on the name and do offer trial there and you can do 4 weeks. Generally you need 2 to 3 for full knowledge, depending on FM level, scouting package and player knowledge of your manager.

@markbarnes3076 3 года назад

Clubs will often accept trials for transfer listed players 😉

@conner76jackson 4 года назад

Might be the wrong video to ask this question on, due to topic relevance, but I’ll ask anyway. I’m looking to develop a new tactic for my Rennes save. Looking to move away from the overused (IMO) 4-1-4-1 Wide to a 3-4-1-2 in attacking/positive games and 5-2-1-1 in defensive/cautious games. Now when it comes to adjusting that tactic throughout the season, how often should I do that? I see the assistant manager recommending changes all the time and it’s beyond annoying and my team is kind of temperamental about the tactics I have set up now from game to game. Anyway advice on how often to change and how to keep players invested to a tactic? Thanks.

@Hyde_Hill 4 года назад

On 2, you can also use affiliate clubs to expand world knowledge, other then using staff members. Personally I don't do 3 as I consider it "cheating" if the club allows it I might send a scout to these tournaments but I won't troll through the list of players. Plus I have hidden attributes on and always have my manager with low knowledge, as to prevent me "cheating" this way. 4 for me is also way too cheese lol, but if I might offer some of them trials if they pop up in recommendations. I never filter by attributes, ever. Makes it more "real" and challenging to me.

@mnm8818 Год назад

2 yr old late rant 12:51 USA and probably Canada and Australia in game would be the same. As they are closed league systems- there's no transfer or loans for those leagues pro or not in real life. There's no fee payment to transfer the player's clubs that would be corruption in those leagues. They have Draft picks- weakest teams have pick first of top players or player trades no $ involved... Youths don't get a salary or % profits... So they don't have an actual transfer contract cause you can't transfer. It's free for youth and (pros after their contract)
