Play FM23 in a brand new way! In this series I'm going to show you how to play Football Manager as the Director of Football.
After our history-making qualification for the Champions League, I'm now embarking on my biggest test yet as Director of Football: build an Everton squad capable of competing in the world's premier club competition.
We start the window incredibly well, but then we hit a wobble as I realise the impact one simple misplaced sentence can have on a group of team leaders. Needless to say, things get a little bit tricky from there...
Watch this episode for a bucketload of moneyball sales, the arrival of a long-scouted striker, and the scandal that I'm absolutely, totally over now. (I'm really not over it.)

Director of Moneyball | Episode 12 | Everton
It will be a long road back to the top, but I'm making it my mission to take Everton all the way to the pinnacle of European Football.
And I'm doing it the hard way:
* No match tactics
* No team selection
* No training
* No team talks
All of that will be left to my staff because I am the Director of Football. Scouting, recruitment, data analysis, unearthing bargains and embedding a club DNA. That's my job here.
And to help us move away from the financial precipice the club is currently leaning over, we will be applying the Nine Rules of Moneyball:
1. Promote youth ahead of transfers
2. Only buy players aged 20-25, with decent data sample size
3. Shop outside the usual markets - transfer listed and out of contract players, low reputation leagues
4. Improve defence before attack
5. Always improve the weakest area of the team first
6. Don't buy strikers unless absolutely necessary
7. Sell players at their peak age
8. Always be scouting for replacements
9. Sell any player if a club offers more than they are worth
Can I lay the foundations for Premier League and European glory? How far can you take an elite club in Football Manager 2023 by completely ignoring match tactics, training and team selection? Let's find out...
This will be the biggest challenge the Director of Moneyball has ever faced. Watch the carnage unfold.

A couple of people have asked if I could share the views I'm using for the Director of Moneyball save. As you wish!
Here you'll find the filter I used to find my Assistant Managers, the Player Search view I'm using to ensure new signings match the club DNA, the Squad View that helps me to assess performance, and the Schedule view to show which formation we've lined up with in each match.
Enjoy!
