Welcome to FMTV! FMTV is a new project aimed at helping people discover FM Content on YouTube. If you're a fan of FM use the links to find content organised in handy categories. If you're a creator you can add your videos to get access to an admin panel allowing you to categorise each video. Creators will need to login and categorise each video after it's uploaded. We're also looking for moderators to volunteer and help organise the app.
A theory heavy exploration of Moneyball in FM, and how to use all the data in game to elevate your team to the next level.

*MONEYBALL CLINIC*
A team guide series, using a statistic-led approach to squad assessment, tactic building and recruitment.
*SQUAD VIEW*
The squad view in the skin in this video is not part of the public release. This is because it causes a number of issues elsewhere - including, but not limited to, being unable to see players out on loan or international squads.
*CLARIFICATION*
Towards the end of the video, I speak about overpaying on wages for Devyne Rensch. This calls back to an earlier point that was eventually cut from the video. For clarification, we decided to overspend on the basis that should he achieve an average rating of 7.00 (which would be lower than his average rating at Ajax), his wages would end up representing good value. This was a gamble, but one that is low risk.
*FEEDBACK*
If you want to leave feedback, but rather it was kept anonymous, you can do so via this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdDyHJ8ZKOWowP5v1w1zug4cRJ6S4s9pFwE2RXiv0r1QcVQ4A/viewform
*METHODOLOGY*
No editor files were used as part of this process, ensuring that the guide provided is applicable to the vanilla game.
*FILES*
The spreadsheet is view only. Either make a copy or download.

I know it's odd to discourage downloading these, but they are very much built for the specific circumstances of this save, and so I'll always encourage applying anything you liked from the video in your own way. Assess what you want to do, and create your own.
