I Can't Move Until San Marino Wins

There are times in my life making videos that I wonder how I’ve ended up where I am. While making this video, I had a lot of those moments. We all know that the San Marino national team is famous for not winning matches, so what happens when we crack open Football Manager and put San Marino in the Premier League. Oh, and I also can’t move until they win a match.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

Honestly I'd like to see Zealand actually manage them for a week before Leeds game to see how sooner it would happen 😂

[@kakaisclass]

a team went invincible before San Marino won a game 😭

[@Kejmur]

I'm curious how San Marino would do in a similar video in Vanarama League, and how it would look after let's say 10 years, showing how they played in each season. Would they actually advance to any reasonable English league?

[@declangaming24]

They can win against EFL teams

This makes me more impressed that I managed to lose against San Marino as Scotland

[@conordowse4537]

In 22 seasons, San Marino has played 836 matches. In those 836 matches, they have W0 D1 L835. They have collected 1 point out of a potential 2508. Edit: If Zealand could bless me with all the GF and GA, I would be able to compile all information and determine the average per season. Edit 2: So I have done the calculations. The average points per game for San Marino in the PL is 0.0004 points per game. By comparison, the worst PL points per game in a season was 0.4 points for Huddersfield in 2018/19, having collected 16 points in 38 games.

[@calamorta]

Imagine the goal difference total

[@Ricky_Baldy]

No. Telephone numbers start with a +, not -.

Surely the worst PPG is Derby in the 07/08 season 11 in 38 😂

the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result

[@clubvillain]

7 hours of pure pain is worth it for the video. Keep up the good work Zealand.

[@AshManTV92]

Would be very interesting to see how far down the league's they have to go before winning a game

[@erickbarbosa2935]

great idea

[@enzobossi-jp8er]

I think it would be cool if instead of resetting in the prem let them get related and see how far down it would take them to win a game

Now watch him get it done in the first season on the stream 😆

[@ava0003]

Another cool challenge would be to start them in the prem and have them relegate year in year, to see how long it takes until they get a win and then track what division they get the win in. This was gold

I have no idea how you got a national team to play in the EPL but I had fun watching! I hope your bladder is OK. Sometimes guys have to go to Emergency when things get blocked up so please avoid doing that because I’ve heard it hurts. (I would insert a Sepp Blatter joke if I were clever enough.)

[@loonyloser1733]

What's funny about this to me is that in my FM21 save in Belarus where I also managed the Belarus NT for a time San Marino swept Slovenia in Euros qualifying one year and didn't finish bottom of their group. So I know that they can get wins in FM.

[@lisciatoredimele8919]

Same, they have won multiple Matches in my current save and some generated San Marino are actually good

[@judychen1038]

This is like what happens when you put a non league team in the premier league

[@jeverydk]

Legends says, he sits in his chair to this day

[@martenkats6915]

Maybe you can do something similar but not re-load, instead just keep trying in the lower level after relegation and see how long it takes until they win a game & until they don't get relegated. You would need to download a database that goes down to tier 10 at least though I'd say as normally the lowest playable league is the National League North/South at tier 6 which is probably still too high for them.

[@HCMCDrives]

Check out San Marino 1-7 England. Back in 1993 England were rubbish and needed to beat San Marino by 7 goals (and hope for other results).... Then proceeded to concede a goal after only 8 seconds 😂

2:40 after that suspicious goalkipping, the fullham goalkeeper is underinvestigation for match fixing and illegal bettng.

[@Hanqy]

i had a save in fm22, i was jokingly looked into san marino to see how bad they are like usual, and surprisingly san marino won many matches against weak teams, when i scout the team, one of the regen is a 17-18 yo promising attacking midfielder, then i bought him cheap (i was using chester in championship), promote to epl with him on starting lineup. when he's 24 he has 19 pace, 17 passing, and high intelligence. when i check with fm editor, he has 165 potential. he's the most memorable regen in my entire career in FM. too bad the rest of san marino regens are trash so they never play in a national competition other than friendlies.
