My FM Club Invited Me to Training

[@someguy909]

Floridsdorfer's marketing team just struck gold

[@brianbru]

Man, Floridsdorfer were such massive sports with Zealand this season. Good luck to them for their future endeavours. They're a team Zealand and the fans won't soon be forgetting.

[@SBarrettM]

Now all they need to do is sign a plucky american midfielder like OVDH to backpack them

[@LordWay]

@@SBarrettM I want to buy one of their shirts in future

Alternate Title: "I Meet All the People I Sold on FM22 IRL"

[@showstealer1829]

They actually liked my tweet of him reading out the team sheet on Match Day while thinking "Sold you" "Sold You" "Released You" "Literally no idea who you are"

[@jordza2k11]

Thats actually brilliant that, the fact some clubs take FM coverage seriously is amazing to see especially with how we all know Zealand and that theres always a reason for a club to be picked (OD, Floridsdorfer etc.)

[@jacklynch7802]

[@DrZaius3141]

@@mw4828 As a Sturm fan I love the different reactions to him believing he went to Sturm vs to GAK. For those who don't know, those are the two big clubs from Austria's second biggest city Graz, but GAK went bankrupt and is now clawing it's way back up while Sturm is getting some European football most seasons.

[@DoctorBenjyFM]

Well, isn't this just lovely.

This is so wholesome it hurts! Great work Z, looks like a really fun trip 👍👍

[@MrAndre19971997]

Holy.. This is a content of another level. I'm so amazed you're really doing this. Thank you for your job, Zealand. From Russia with love man.

This is sooo cool that you get to meet and train with a team you managed. Would be incredible if you could manage them for a friendly game or something in the future. Great video🎉😊

[@Sprite8822]

It's really great to see the relationship you have built with the club. Keep up the good work.

[@loonyloser1733]

This video was a lot of fun. Especially listening to Z talk to players from that first season. "We won the title and then...I released you." 😂

[@ferdo19tato]

I was smiling throu all of this video 😁😁 This is so amazing, actually a dream came true for all FM players who play in small teams and take the effort and the hours to conquer grear things.

[@lilbaa8381]

amazing content and I hope Floridsodrfer"s get promoted this season I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours.

[@paullea100]

This is genuinely the dream. Playing football manager then getting to hangout with the team is so epic on so many levels….. Where’s my FC Den Bosch invitation at??! 😂 Amazing work Z! Keep it up!!!

[@DBragg2124]

This is fantastic! A whole new world for a content creator.

[@charlier2856]

Feels very wierd that last October I visited Wien for the first time with my dad and met up with an old friend and colleague of his ,who'd moved to Wien several years earlier, who's son used to play football with my brother. His son actually played for FAC Wien in the academy and only recently I realised that FAC Wien is Florisdorfer.

[@ins_nasko9201]

That video was really interesting! Great job, Z! Up the dorfers and send greetings from Bulgaria to Gitsov!

[@baumstammbruno]

That's a pretty fun one to see them laugh about your cruel treatment of them :D Football manager is a cutthroat business. Win the league, get released.

[@sam-r7w]

Great vid! Would've loved to see some in game footage or audio of each player when you met them.

[@fpsoccer9791]

It would be hilarious and amazing if you came back during pre-season and managed their tactics for a friendly match. I would love to see how well they play and what the coach/manager thinks about your ideas.

[@shawnmason5551]

Gitsov is the man! This is an amazing video, an instant classic!

Mad how their stadium looks about the same size as Champion Hill, the stadium of my local Non-League team Dulwich Hamlet

They are essentially a non-league team, they got promoted a few years ago from the 3rd league which is semi professional

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

What a fantastic experience and what a great way to start the new FM season.

[@MrEagorath]

I gotta admit, this is so cool.. not only do the "smaller" clubs get some spotlight.. but it really personalizes the whole "my club" (and probably makes it harder for Z to sell some of them in the next installment of the game xD)

[@godseye13k]

Amazing that they reach out and offer an invite to do that. Your a quality dude my friend. The world needs more people like u. Stay safe 😷

[@neilproctor5163]

When a player says you can be the goalkeeper, when you've not done any goalkeeping ... they're being polite!

[@thargoff]

Zealand played goalkeeper in high school and college.

[@llSuperSnivyll]

This was really wholesome. They've gained some real-life sympathy points for that.

[@spicedaddy1976]

this is amazing z, great opportunity for you!!

[@steve10]

Excellent video , FM does that to you , if you manage a tiny foreign club you do end up taking them to heart I did the challenge where you start at the lowest club in Austrian 2nd division , that was kapfenburger for me in FM21 , I loved the stadium , got them promoted , survived before moving to sturm graz to win the league, I would love to see a game there one day , difficult to find kits for small clubs though.

[@baseballdreamland]

This video was so much fun! Got me curious to re-watch the very first episode of the FAC series. Now knowing you’ve met these players, your reactions/comments when seeing their profiles/ratings for the first time is hilarious. You should’ve played those video clips back for them (and then ducked). 😂
