What type of team or tactic do you like to use ?

Afternoon all. I am looking for my next adventure in the land of FM15 Youtube videos and I want to do something that is of least of use.

I was wondering, do you generally have a particular team, type of team, league, or tactic that you like to use on a regular basis ? I'd like to find out which teams are managed the most, which league you like to be in, or do you have a style of tactic that you like to play all the team. Do you prefer attacking, goals, clean sheets, possession, counter attacking etc etc ?

Would really appreciate some feedback on which areas to concentrate my efforts in producing some useful videos. I could just produce a variety, but like to at least be of use to what I am finding a cracking game already. (I'm not in the camp of those who think otherwise)

I am a software tester by trade so I might approach things differently to others and find some hidden gems. If you are someone that likes being Chelsea then already covered that route, with what looks a very decent tactic indeed.

Any feedback or suggestions so I can then upload the tactic on here would be greatly appreciated !

Past years I have, pretty much without exceptions, started in the Finnish Prem or first division my the team from my home town (JJK). This year I decided to take a little detour and started without a club with the intention of at some point managing in Finland. By now it's year 2022 and I have had spells in China, Northern Ireland and now Sweden. This has been fairly challenging but also a lot of fun.

As far as tactics go I like to have most of the possession and have had relatively good success even in the lower leagues. I like to base my tactic around a Half Back and a False nine. The rest of the formation is down to the players available, either 4-1-2-2-1 (with AMLR) or 4-1-2-1-2.

Regarding you videos, good luck! You seem to be the sort of person who will produce watchable and in the least fairly useful material. Most gamers I guess tend to manage either in the BPL or the lower leagues of British football so I'm guessing this is where most of your audience is going to be. But I would urge you to switch things up a bit by being creative in your choises of teams managed to add that extra interest!

Cheers

Thanks

I was thinking about a video in a Danish league next. As you say, switch it up a little.

I have actually always wanted to try the Danish league out myself. A smaller league with decent chances of doing well in Europe! Thumbs for the idea.

Interested to hear how long is people viewing retention on Youtube as mine is quite small

Do people like walkthroughs or just quick 3 min videos on tactics etc ?

I am a LLMA (Lower League Management Addict) so that is largely where I start, especially in tiny countries e.g. Montenegro. I usually play a counter-attacking 4-4-2 Diamond unless I don't have the players or the budget.

With the videos I prefer something under 10 minutes long but a combination of walkthroughs and tactical advice is appealing.

I generally play the leagues i know best (Championship and Conference North) but usually like to have a 'outside of my comfort zone' save, a foreign league i'm not familiar with, a league system i'm not sure about (MLS for example) or a challenge save (No youth system or team in administration etc).
