The mexican league part was quite interesting, so in the final you stated you would have won due to league position but that rule is waved for the final alone. Also realistically if you lost a final to chivas in america your job would have been gone immediately specially if you did it twice. loved the video tho.
TomFM: Gets laughed at for wanting a Japanese team job. Joins Japanese side. Knocks the team whose fans laughed at him out of the cup Wins the cup Leaves
I had something similar happen in my save Ask nearby team from the first division for a couple loans All rejected because my team isn't good enough 2 years later, Braga is fighting for 10th place while I'm in Europe The first loan offer from them that I accepted came 8 years after that. I felt bad for them at that point
@@oscarlewis-perrins1343that’s not what he meant btw, countries which have a lower standing in their respective continents. For example managing into the Norwegian First Division for champions league instead of going to Italy like he did in this
Absolutely Smashing Production!!! I would've paid money to watch this in theatres! Congrats on the accomplishment & Thank You for allowing us to share the fun of the journey. Well Done!
Hey Tom, you inspired me to give this a go myself. I've started with Milford FC in South Africa. Got promoted in 2nd place in my first season, then came 2nd behind Sundowns in my first Prem season. I don't think I'm going to be able to win the African CL with Milford, my wage budget is only like 10% of the big African teams, but my strong league performances and two domestic cup wins have boosted my rep nicely, so I'm hoping to get a better job offer soon.
I started with Venda FC and won the league with like 73 points, I got SUPER lucky and Orlando Pirates had a terrible season and sacked their manager. I got the job only because of how bad they were. First season got 2nd, then season 3 I won the league by 15 points but lost in the Champions League semi to.... Sundowns (who I beat 3 times in a row in the season). I think it's going to be super hard to beat the Egyptian teams!! And your players always want to leave in Africa!!!
I've got the maddest coincidence ever, I thought Max Quelch-Woolls was an unique name for a regen but there's actually a player in the Sunday league I play in with the exact name
I paused the video for a couple hours because I stepped aside to do some stuff. I came back and read this comment exactly when a result from a game where he scored was being shown. The meta-coincidence.
Took 20 seasons to complete it as I included Oceania as part of the challenge that I won the CL with a New Caledonian team within 2 seasons then builded my rep in Malaysia/Australia/Uruguay/Portugal then won a clean sweep in Mexico then did the impossible job with Boca as I sold half of the squad due to debt then took 3 seasons to win the CL with Shanghai Shenhua as it was very hard despite a massive budget of half a billion then took a year off and won everything in Morocco then somehow got the Bayern job who were the best team in the world in 2040s as I completed the challenge.
I’m finding my self addicted to these videos. And I haven’t played football manager in years. Would love to see you try and win all the international competitions in each confederation and then finish with the World Cup.
That Internazionale jersey caught me off guard 😂 Incredible journey, very well done. I'm thinking of starting a new career on the new FM, thanks to you 😇
I’ve taken this on. Never done it before. January 2031 and two down. Africa and North America. ENPPI in 2029 and América in 2030. Took over ATP in Brazil after 15 games with us 2nd bottom. Ended up finishing 4th and winning the Copa Sudamericana, so we’re in the Copa Libertadores for 2031.
I don't even know what football manager is other than a video game. But this full movie of yours had me transfixed! Thanks and well done on your great achievement.
I never heard of your channel before and also I can't even watch 1 hour episode of tv series but for some reason I watched this whole video without getting bored. Nice job.
Great video. Like many I stumbled upon this having never played FM properly (since ultimate soccer manager 99 that is) Looks great - don’t think there is an issue with an over 2 hour video but as a tip I watched it at 1.25x and it takes nothing away from the production. Great content
Jack be loving that your using his music for park to prem in the background... only noticed around the Milan save 🤣🤣 was wondering when I was going to hear the "I'm out" phrase
I have a fun challenge to suggest but it may be a bit long: Win the league in every country in Europe, starting from the lowest ranked league and working your way up towards Premier League.
There's 54 nations in Europe, and 53 that have leagues. That is indeed a tall order, especially if you make a fantasy league for Liechtenstein, in which case, that'd push it up to 54. Either way, that is very long indeed.
Great challenge, if you want to make it more difficult next time download the Antarctica megapack and see if you can win the Antarctica Champions League
The Script writer for his Fm career went crazy!, bro got to beat Arsenal his former employers, got revenge for arsenal against united and then beat thier rivals tottenham. Then his final conti cup final was against the team he used as a pawn
I don't know why this popped up on my queue since i haven't played FM24 at all but I watched all 2 hours and it was brilliant. Now I have to go through your channel and find more :)
I honestly hate how watchable this is, cause I didn't know fm stories would be this interesting and cinematic until now. Glad I finally found this channel.
WHAT A VIDEO!!! watched every second as if it was a movie! Great job, amazing content. If I could recommend a challenge it would be the pentagon challenge but you must win with the first team of the continent that hires you!!!
41:32 Shunta Tanaka was one of my first ever signings (I think the 3rd to be exact) while playing FM, as I'm on my first ever save right now. I had him scouted, brought him to PSV and turned him into a player that Wolves thought was good enough for them, and so he eventually got promoted with them to the Premier League. I don't know how good he usually gets, but as he is already I think around 25yo at the start, I was proud of having developed him. :D
I've only just discovered your channel and I must say I love it I always find other channels videos really good or really bad but yours are constantly good so well done
Wonderful video Tom. I cannot believe I have watched the whole 2 hours. I have been playing manager games since CM03/04 and never even attempted this challenge before. I have always tried to create challenges within Europe. I was wondering, what was the database choice (mid, large) and which leagues you have choose? It must be really slow to progress with every league turned on while creating the save.
I have never played this game before in my life. I have 0 interest in this game and 0 interest in futbol or soccer. But I gladly sat down and watched this thoroughly enjoying all 2+ hours of it. Now I have to subscribe and see what else he's got!
Never played Football Manager, but this video got me intrigued (and subscribed!) Also, incredibly true-to-life rendition of a managerial stint with Arsenal 😏
I did a pentagon challenge in FM22 and I just don't think the game is designed to roam around smaller leagues for several years. Took me 6 years to CAF CL, mercifully short 4 months to AFC CL, 3 years CONCACAF, 4 years Copa Libertadores and then only 6-7 months UEFA (got the ManCity job right away) with an aging Haaland. I don't regret the save, actually I'm still playing in that save, but I think other challenges are more interesting.
Grandissimo video, analisi interessante e soprattutto d’accordo su kamada partita super positiva. Spero vivamente di non averti fatto buttare i soldi per le luci 😂 magari una lavagna verde o scura potrebbe risolvere il tutto? Buona Pasqua bello e continua così che farai strada!!
Ahh moon. I love how in every save there is just that one special player. I remember in FM21 or 22, Eddie Nketiah from Arsenal was just OP. Broke multiple Goal scoring records and won Player of the year twice😂 He felt like a cheat code
I just came to 1:22:58 when I realized when I was sick the other time my phone was playing random videos and I was falling asleep and I woke up to zhis video but I didn't continue it. Now watched it from the start and I'm invested 😂
Amazing challenge congrats , but you should tell us how you managed to upload some nations that are not by default in game , i tried to do it as well but the game doesnt want to load them , like make a guide of how to do what you did more or less xD
I was wondering why the game looked like that for the copa libertadores final. “The match was being played while the sun was exploding.”😂😂😂😂😂😂 you are hilarious
Win any of the major champions leagues, other than the European Champions League, using only youth players developed at your club, then win the European champions league playing at least five players from your previous club.
When i first know about football manager, I thought it was a ridiculous concept, just manage a team without actually playing each player. But once I started, I found its charmed and could not stop playing. Such a good game, I skip 2 games. wiil buy FM25 when it comes out.
Do I play this game? No. Do I know this guy? No. Did I just bench over 2h enjoying every second? Yes! Well done 😁
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
@@TomFM same experience for me, never watched or played FM but this was an incredible journey. Great pacing.
Same case here!
Really enjoyed the content

TRUE 🤣
Moon has a statue in the manager's garden
I love how Tihad play in a massive stadium with no spectators. It brings back memories of a HK fourth tier save I done once.

The rule where the highest seed wins doesn’t apply for semis either
Never played football manager or watched any vids, just hovered over your vid and got sucked into it, loved the entire 2hours and 11minutes

All rejected because my team isn't good enough

Oh and I bought the manager's son and put him in my B team playing in the regional leagues 😂
Now run it back. Same save, but from five different nations, all that have coefficients below where you won it from the first time.
He’s already said no 1 million times because national team managing in fm is crap
@@oscarlewis-perrins1343I don't think he meant do the same with national teams. He just wants exactly this series, but with different clubs

Brilliant video Tom, how it was broken down, the narration, music, everything. Best FM content creator out there as it stands imo.
If i remember correctly, the finals in Mexico take away the league standing rule. That one goes to extra time/pens if necessary
This was the first video I’ve watched without skipping. Very entertaining and gripping. Thanks for your effort
I have a fun challenge to suggest but it may be a bit long:
Win the league in every country in Europe, starting from the lowest ranked league and working your way up towards Premier League.
