In this thread, I'll talk about how you can train yourself to be better at #FM23 #FootballManager by learning how to identify, spot and fix tactical issues

Training The Eye

When I used to be more active on forums and write more often on my Football Manager websites, I… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

That’s it, nothing more. I don’t even pay attention to what the opposition is doing which is what people seem to get hung upon and confuses the situation.
