My Dad REBUILDS with a NEGATIVE Transfer Budget 

The thing that killed me is OmegaDad got into Europe… then changed tactics! 😔 also Luke, you need to teach him how to pick up wonderkids to actually sell and make money for tougher rebuilds like this.

initial toughts on the season 2 tactic- it's terible and then that happened so i was in a bit of a shock

Omegadad might have started a new meta tactic with the triple advanced playmakers 😂

Boxing Day AND Omega Dad doing an Italian team? This is gonna be GOOD!

Pretty good rebuild overall, initial thought on season 2- going to be a relegation scrap, after seeing the end of season 2- Did everyone else just forget how to defend. One way to help with the non-EU rule, which Omega Dad did without realising with Vasquez is looking at the 2nd nationalities. Pretty sure Vazquez has an Italian passport.

Aside from having to scrub my eyes after seeing that second season tactic and the non-EU player issues 😂 absolutley fair play on this one dad! For someone who’s still a newbie to the game, albeit getting more experienced, to get through that with those budgets or lack thereof was incredible! In the meantime, call me a glutton for punishment, but I’m going to have a go at a sixth season challenge 😅 will keep you posted.

27:14 a little fact about the nuamah transfer for 25 million to RWDM, the owner of RWDM is the same owner of Lyon and Lyon was very interested in Nuamah, but they couldn't buy him due to financial problems. The owner gave RWDM so much money to buy Nuamah and he immediately got loaned out to Lyon so he still went to them

Great to see OmegaDad take on a challenge like this. He will have learned so much from the experience. I can never get one advanced playmaker to work let alone three. That season proved to be tactical genius. If only he had stuck with the tactic. 😓

initial thoughts; when you said along the lines of 'hows adrian pulling this off in this league?!'... 3 attacking APS is the hidden truth lol

with what OmegaDad got for budget, it was impressive rebuild. 2. tactic: I thought he hadn't learned anything with the AP on att. after: maybe we haven't learned anything from him :D Going to try 1 season, maybe 5. love the italien league. Update: 1. Season: squad size 17 players. Let the players run out and sold 2 to bring in 6. Finished 13. Cup semi. Still minus budget 2. Season: squad size 17 players. Let 1 player run out. One acadamy promoted. Finished 15. Cup 3. Round. Still minus budget 3. Season: sold 3 players, 62 million. Bought 10 players, 21.5 million. Finished 6. Cup 2. Round. Still minus budget 4. Season: zero transfers. Finished 11. Cup semi. UEL semi. Still minus budget.

Saw the tactic and thought "uh oh, we might be seeing Serie B footy next season", fair to say i was absolutely shocked. Fair play to Omega Dad

Initial thoughts on the season 2 tactic, oh dad what on earth are you doing. Afterthoughts dad you are a genius 😂😂

Oh also a story about Ernest Nuamah. Molenbeek is owned by the same people that own Lyon, so he was signed by Molenbeek using Lyon's money, then loaned to Lyon before joining permanently next season, but for some reason FM has him returning to RWM after the first season

Wow insane the financial constraints at the club. Omega dad did a great job in the circumstances. Excellent rebuild

About the Nuamah deal of 25 million, it's because Olympique Lyon and RWDM are owned by the same owner,John Textor but Olympique Lyon were not allowed to make any transfers this summer because of FFP,but new owner at Olympique Lyon Textor wanted Nuamah so RWDM signed him and loaned him to Olympique Lyon straight away 😂😂😂😂😂(As a Belgian this is so hilarious because it's the biggest transfer fee Red from Belgian club for a player,and RWDM are newly promoted)

What more could a boxing day need I'm predicting a omega dad success

Initial thoughts: Omega Dad the genius, After thoughts: trust the process.

Lovin videos u put up quality content & how u even managed keep Parma up with all them obstacles especially that budget unreal massive respect to u that was a hard challenge, keep up good work with videos

Initial thoughts on the tactic was if you changed them for mezzellas you’d stand more of a chance but as dad said the season before Italy is a defend first tactically so maybe the attacking tactic might keep them up but did not see him finishing top 6

Great video, can't imagine the struggle with that Budget, but I think at this point you need to do a Franck Kessie check in Omega dad rebuilds, maybe after season 3 or sth 😂

I believe that Omega Dad should've kept that second season tactic for third season.

I really want that 3 AP on attack tactic to do some testing with 😅 We need to dissect it, find out how it works! Another awesome video lads! Kept me entertain whilst working on boxing day

Hell of a second season! Never saw that coming with the formation or squad. Big credit Omega dad

Just came back from vacation. 4 videos to watch is just awesome 😁

Even the board where so confused with that tactic that decided to not give him any money 😅

Unbelievable that the 2nd season tactic did so well! I think you should continue this and see how long you can survive in the job before they sack you!

Fun Fact about the Ernst Nuameh Signing is that the signing was made from Lyon, but they had to do it through their cooperative club because of financial fair play rules. So usually they do not have those kind of money, but it was lyon who financed it - and I'm quiet sure irl he will join Lyon permanently in the summer! :D

OD tactical genius! Did not think you'd be anywhere near that second season 🤣

Awesome videos mates. I actually have the same feelings about goalkeepers in fm as omega dad. What would be nice to see is a test with same team same tactics but just try to play ten different goalkeepers. With one on one 20 (livakovic) and then change up to see how much its really differ. Positioning i think i super key aswell

I just can't get over the "PARMAR" on the subs at the start of the video 🤣

Initial thoughts: absolute crazy 😂 after thoughts: only a dad could make it work

Knapp musta been shaking looking at tactical masterclass of dad 1st season up 🤣🤣

14:02 initial thoughts I thought it would work since attacking is heavily favored by the engine. But I wasn’t expecting Europe I thought at most mid table

😂 I was laughing my head off at his tactic and then choked on some food my mate had to help me 😂😂

Funny story about Nuamah, the owner of Molenbeek also owns Lyon, because of financial fair play, the owner bought Nuamah through Molenbeek to immediatly loan him to Lyon. So he never played for Molenbeek, it's just some way to avoid financial troubles for Lyon.

The non-EU rule is a rule I struggle too and I'm Italian. It seems easy, but it's not. Second season was just unbelievable! Also realised that the Anderlecht first leg ended 8-4 😂

Thanks for doing this. It saves me from going thru a world of hurt as I was considering doing Parma.....think I'll give it a miss😂

Initial thoughts: that's 100 goal conceding season After thoughts: wtf

To be fair, Numbah never played a game for Molenbeek since the loaned him out immediately after singing to a french team who has a transfer embargo on them. And we don't expect him to play a game for Molenbeek. They are just in the pocket of the same owner with the transfer embargo French team

Omg this was crazy. Luukkkeeeee cmon you have to do a 6th season 😂 Hope yas had a good Xmas fellas!

I started my annual wolves save, using the new feature to start with the actual squad at the start of July. Had a transfer budget of -£60m

I gave that meme nod when I saw the tactics “he’s going for it” I said 😂…. But I did not expect that… now I’ve gone back to my drawing board regarding mine

It's kind of interesting, I saw a few 'meta' tactics making the rounds on the tactics sites that used multiple AP on Attack! There must be something in this year's match engine that really likes the space multiple APs are creating in the final third. Omega Dad is unintentionally making meta tactics now!

These rebuilds when you start in second division you should do 10-15 seasons, because that time you can start play with develop academy players or wonderkids and do some money. Great video again, merry christmas to everyone! Forza Omegadad!

Initial thought for the tactic was shocked and the after thoughts was shocked😂

i'd like to see an A-League rebuild as there's loads of interesting rules regarding transfers makes it fairly difficult tbh

Merry Christmas guys great videos, got my step dad into fm 24 🎉

Initial thought: I wasn't questioning the all attack or defend. I run something similar in my long term save I have where I now consistently get Europe/fight for the Champions League in the Prem. I've always viewed the attack/support/defend as where you want the players to stand and how far you want them to push. The thing that got me worried was the fact there were three Advanced Playmakers. I wasn't sure how they'd play together. After thoughts: I might have to try something like that. See what it looks like in the engine and how everything plays together.

it would be great if you could a rebuild with vfb stuttgart. its a pretty big club in germany and they are 3rd in the league at the moment, the suprise of the bundesliga season with leverkusen at the moment

Luke, you need to do this now! Well done Dad. Who knew he was a tactical genius

Frank Kessie, Jude Bellingham, new keepers, squad players and random tactics. Keep it going OmegaDad

That 2nd season, reason he had that many goals is 3 players were setting him up haha

Omega Dad found the meta tactic. Just use 3 advanced playmakers and you get into top 6. It was a successful rebuild given the finances. Gutted the two Romanians haven't been used as much as both are really talented. Have to hand it though to Omega Dad. He learnt a lot in a short period of time. Maybe wait for deadline day to get some free loans in. But aside of that , congratulations.

One of the best systems I had was with 3 playmakers, I had a roaming one always and two wide playmakers. I dominated possession, against everyone.

Initial thoughts: I ALWAYS BELIEVED IN YOU OMEGA DAD

Multiple playmakers actually tend to break the game a lot. I have friend who uses it a lot and overperform a lot. So I actually when saw 2nd season tactic just rolled my eyes and was like "for fuck sake it will work, won't it?"

Initial Thoughts on the Tactic: A solid base formation for a weaker team to sneak out wins. Was questioning the 3 playmakers, but I am one of the rare people that actually like and have good success with AP's. I am surprised it did so well, but I find that Italy is one of the easier leagues to sneak a surprising league finish because there is so much parity.

maybe it has something to do with the no support roles. he could have 2 banks in the match engine,. all attack and defend roles is interesting as they might not roam from their positions as much or what they are required to do.

Aye 3am from canada! thanks for another video. love the content

initial thoughts : OmegaDad is having a laugh, literally. But apparently he's the FM version of Guardiola.

Luke, what may have helped Parma get into Europe was Parma scoring 102 goals in the second season if you didn't notice that👀

I won't be taking over the save file but a Parma save is definietly added to my list now. I love a good challenge

Keep an eye on the scouting budget. If dad isn't using scouts then that budget can be brought back, thus decreasing expenditures. Might help. Awesome content!

The thing is opponents get confused by the "bad" tactic just like us and then it happens...

That Nuamah transfer to Molenbeek is under investigation since theyre a partnered club to lyon and they 'signed' him for 25 mil and loaned him out to lyon straight away, despite only coming up from the belgian 2nd league this year

I'd like to see different kind of Race to Prem challenge. Journeyman challenge where you two start from likes of Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Estonia etc. So its like speed competition and maybe points. I love your content! The best in RU-vid.

That second season is so impressive. Initial thoughts; yeah no chance UNTIL you showed the first 4 results and i felt a mid-table was inbound. after thoughts; OmegaDadiola 🔥 also: 28:02 i met Aurier in a Paris train station on his way to make his PSG loan permanent in 2015

Great job omegadad. The story with Ernest Nuamah is that Lyon was longer interested in him. Lyon just didn't have the opportunity to spend that money because of the rules in France. therefore, the sister club bought him with the idea that he will sell to Lyon. It was a big story i Denmark which many are outraged about. I guess it's just modern football.

initial thoughts were that it was pre good tbh having 3 players who are looking to pass the ball around and move up field all in a triangle kinda makes sense

i think advanced playmakers are very underated this year started using them in my ajax rebuild first year made in ucl finals

intial thoughts - well here he goes back to the serie b , that was fast thoughts after simulation : WHAT THE ?

Didn’t see anyone else comment about it so thought I would! Ernest Nuamah was signed by Lyon’s owner’s other club because Lyon couldn’t afford him for FFP reasons, and then loaned to Lyon - so purely dodgy accounting

Initial thought: Dads a genius it will work anyway After thought: yep knew it

OmegaDad should start fielding 11 GKs since he has plenty of them already. GK challenge 😂

Never seen anything like that and finances ruined the sense of a rebuild as an idea for the video and a save. Well done in such harsh environment

Omega dad had such a messy tatic that the teams he played against, they where like “what the hell is going on here” that’s how he manage to finish in 5th place 😅

My first thought on the tactic was oh no this will go badly, but after give him the Argyle Job, should never doubt the genius that is Omega Dad

Nuamah joined the Belgium side who have the same owners that OL and i believe it was to avoid a transfer restriction

RWDM ‘signed’ nuamah in real life Loaned him the same day to Lyon (partner club) who couldn’t pay him themselves….he is the record signing for a Belgian club!

Luke you have to try this aswell, the tough jobs are always the best

Just sat there laughing when I seen 3 advanced playmakers and was still laughing until I saw the end of season result jaw just dropped🤣🤣

Initial thoughts: He's a mad man After thoughts: Don't worry, I'll see myself out

Initial thoughts: we are seeing the first relegation this season in a solo rebuild 😂 but well done Omega Dad!

I've used more playmakers than that, it's not a surprise that tactic worked great, but a little for some of the players used

Should have stuck to that OP meta tactic with 3 APs. I demand that Luke take over the 6th season where he has to use it.

Guardiola is taking notes.😂💪

Mightve been said mate but the same company owns Lyon and Molenbeek and apparently the FFP rules are looser in Belgium or something so they sent him there then on loan to Lyon immediately.

Still can't get over the fact he got 5th with that tactic. It hurts my soul just looking at that monstrosity.

His season 2 tactic is like a Japanese kamakazi pilot lol

Initial thoughts where here we go again. Then how in the f**k 😂.

Omega dad improves day by day! Such a challenging save. I would just discard the save at the first minus transfer lol.

Omega Dadiola😂😂 Genius tactician

good try omega dad,very entertaining episode

Initial : need to check the medication After : Maradonna clearly supplying

Hi you should look up how Molenbek signed Nuameh. It has something being about them being owned by the same owner as Lyon where he went straight on loan (something about ffp)

I'm gonna have to stand by my mate Omega Dad because I like the AP too, but never played 3 of them! Great to have them playing so well, if the board had backed you, we would see a Scudetto by the end!!!!

Initial thoughts: This will be carnage After thoughts: how? 😂

Molenbeek is owned by the Lyon owner that is why they loaned Nuamah out immediatly. It was a trick to circumvent financial fair play.

Initial thoughts on S2: Classic OmegaDad. After thoughts: Classic OmegaDad. On a side note, also, 100+ goals, whilst finishing 5th, in Italy. Madness! Fantastic video, gents. Completely different twist, but to keep them up through the rebuild is amazing. Well done 🎉

Initial thoughts: What the fuck is that, Thoughts after: What????
