How the #1 Ranked FM Player Start's a Save

[@benjaminreina5604]

Never comment on KZbin, but dropping a comment to appreciate your content. Been playing Since FM 2005 (PSP) and never learnt as much as with this series of videos. You’re great mate

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@benjaminreina5604 thank you so much. I'm glad you did, means a lot.

[@covfefe91]

Absolutely love your vids, mate. Keep it up!

[@OffSonic47]

Your channel is teaching me a lot bro, FM24 is my first ever FM and it’s been a lot to take in. 😅

[@Henry-fr84]

Same for me this game goes so deep

[@Boldnessworx]

Really great videos, really helped me look at my own saves in much deeper detail

[@Qddregrets]

I would really like to see how you tweak and why based on the opposition and your thought process

[@FletchTheSauce]

I got you.

[@bahathebeast2992]

Yeah want to see this also.

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@bahathebeast2992 I did just post some live gameplay you can check out

[@AlexGarcia-fs4qt]

Ur videos are amazing, keep up the great work!

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@AlexGarcia-fs4qt thank you so much for the kind words!

[@n1kola9]

Great video, you need to start plugging your socials in the description though.

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@n1kola9 that's a good idea, forgot about that one!

[@BenMcManus]

Fletch, I've just binged all of your videos and you've got my mind racing witth ideas. I've tinkered with opposition instructions before, with player instructions as well, a club DNA and indeed with profiling players and tactical flexibility, but I never knew how to put it all together into a coherent philosophy, or "my intention" as you put it. The tactical board idea is GENIUS, it's so good for visualising the duals on the pitch. I've been playing this game since the 90s and I've never felt so excited to fire up the game and implement my own version of this. Thank you! 2 questions: How long does it take you to finish a season when you play a single player game? You've hinted in your other videos about how you shut down the game from the 75th-ish minute (depending on the game state), would you consider putting a video together explaining the thought process behind that?

[@FletchTheSauce]

Haven't played a single player game in a good while but it takes ages honestly. The AI is also way too easy to beat so don't have to go into mad plans every game. Yeah I will do an in-game video on how I do it. thanks so much for the nice words.

[@BenMcManus]

@@FletchTheSauce I'm not surprised you find it easy with the amount of thought and detail you put into it! Thanks for that though, love to hear about how different people play this game.

[@FMdanjy]

golden FM content.

@@FMdanjy thank you so much

[@user-yz1zt1nq1p]

Top bloke for taking on my local club

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@user-yz1zt1nq1p Pacific FC?! Have you been to starlight stadium before?

[@user-yz1zt1nq1p]

@@FletchTheSauce well actually its a place I used to live (Victoria), i like them though. I'm from Vancouver, not fond of mls

[@-ronniejr780]

Great stuff

[@htid84]

id like to see you draft your perfect squad from scratch, eg. what key attributes you look for, for your specific team. including GKs, and also do you have any go too PPMs or ones to avoid?

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@htid84 Ok I got you, good idea for a video!

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@htid84 what's PPMs?

[@anonymouseX942]

I think he means traits

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@anonymouseX942 that so much. I'll cover traits too yes

[@htid84]

@@FletchTheSauce aha yes "player preferred moves" - traits, my bad.

[@sHaKiRa666able]

thank you, great video

[@Xeno389]

Do you have a video on countering opponent formations? e.g how to play vs 433, 4231, 3atb etc

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@Xeno389 I'm seeing that's kinda what people want, so I will make them in the near future!

[@kerem8493]

Great video as always man! Do you approach pve with the same tactical philosophy? Like adjusting based on opponents?

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@kerem8493 yeah even more so! Will make a video for draft mode very soon.

[@THEmajnik]

You said you like attacking mentality and then switch to standard if you're winning. Do you still start with attacking even when facing a clearly better team?

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@THEmajnik nah clearly better team I go balanced unless I am losing. Always try to get a result even when away to a really good team

[@wizardclintx1900]

Just wondering what sort of games you would change the width of your side for or do you always stay fairly narrow? Ps Thanks again for these videos- They are class

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@wizardclintx1900 the tougher the opponent is in the middle the more narrow I want to go. A team who has crazy wingers not so much. Weirdly the height of my center backs will determine how narrow I can play. Because narrow invites crosses naturally. The engine seems to favour narrow but if my formation lacks width will go fairly wide.

[@chrisjames3924]

Love your videos - quick question. How do feel about playing players with lower attributes in high skilled player roles? I’ve struggled with this concept. It seems like you’re okay with having lower attributes player in roles like BPD, Segundo Volante, etc. I have seemed to have better success using roles like FB and CM, but feel like I am missing something.

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@chrisjames3924 I do think differently to this, I've heard people say but the role is complicated because loads of instructions. Bad players need instructing because too much freedom is bad too. BPD is just so good I will make a bad on the ball center back do it Volantes are often just needed for overall attacking strat so might put in a not ideal player. I do customise the personal instructions for each player to reduce their weaknesses but yeah as you mentioned... Some exceptions.

[@yyybwm]

what are the best team instructions while playing 4231 or 433 for singleplayer careers?

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@yyybwm high lines, max press, narrow. Balanced or attacking

[@bahathebeast2992]

Do you have examples on how to play against better opponenets? Or like with an underdog in europe to win a champions league or at least challenge them.

[@FletchTheSauce]

My most recent LIVE GAMEPLAY video shows examples of this!

[@Henry-fr84]

How many tactics do you have in total? Or how many formations

[@FletchTheSauce]

over 60 or so. Played 14 different ones in 28 game season lol

[@Gords-m8h]

How good actually is this guy? Can someone inform me

[@FletchTheSauce]

Which guy?

[@stevefeak5696]

Imo you will get more views if you improve your titles. This is too wordy and long, I can’t even see the whole title while browsing. “How the #1 FM draft player starts a save” would be a big improvement. If you’re worried about people questioning your credentials add it to the description or say it audibly at the start of the video.

[@FletchTheSauce]

@@stevefeak5696 yeah this title too wordy for sure. Not worried about getting more views, I would just like to have good titles. I just started with these titles and it took off a little.
