We've had a big week for content this week. Not only on the website but also on here with our Twitter threads. So here is a collection of all the works we've released in the past 7 days #FM23#FootballManager RT'S APPRECIATED.

Something new that we've tried this week is long-form Twitter threads. The feedback has been fantastic and it seems you are all enjoying them. We kicked them off with Playing Styles - The Attribute Side Of The Game #FM23#FootballManager
Staying with the analysis theme, we then created this thread Looking at Data and Analysis on #FM23#FootballManager and focus on the next opponent and the data hub in general

Strikers aren’t the only goal-scorers you can have. You can make a midfielder or even a wide player the main goal scorer of the team, which may be harder but it’s still possible.
In this thread, we will look at Data and Analysis on #FM23#FootballManager and focus on the next opponent.

If you’ve assigned a scout and analyst to scout the next opposition, then in the data hub, the next opponent tab should resemble something like the above.

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.
