I Try to Save Your Saves (with Tom)

TomFM visited New York and I had a wonderful list of saves that were submitted to be saved. I figured we could sit down and debate them for hours, or, we could see who can save these saves the fastest. Under a time crunch. Under pressure to deliver top-notch Football Manager knowledge.

We each get two minutes to try to save each save. It is one of the harder things I’ve ever done and even as I write this I have no idea how Tom has done with the 2 minute requirement either. The tactics, the transfers, the budget on FM can take hours to digest, but 2 minutes? There can only be one GOAT of SYS, and they have those 2 minutes to prove it.

Much Love,
FM Senpai

Thanks for having me, not just in the video, but in NYC too! This was a lot of fun to film but 2 minutes is so difficult, can't believe Reece had done me dirty by snitching on me with all my extra minutes I added on 😂

[JakeMay]

I like the concept of having two different responses to save a save but the time limit, for me, adds an unnecessary stress, rush and distraction – think it would work better without the time limit?

[wasgehtyoutube]

Would have loved to see you guys shortly talk to each other about what you did to save the save after every one.

[bigdaddy]

This could have been an amazing collab video but the 2 minute timer kind of ruined it sorry

[arealblue]

Great Concept and cool video! Ditch the timer so that you can actually express your knowledge and the users can get useful advice 😂

[rafidog]

Very nice collab, too bad you guys limited yourselves to such a short time. Clearly Tom has a higher pace and delivers more information, but both of you mostly pulled in the same direction

[thegreendog]

I like this new concept, but I believe you could get rid of the time limit in my opinion.

[bentarbuck]

not keen on the time limit, felt like more was said about running out of time than the saves

[angelfire]

Cool concept but rip the people who wanted advice but Zealand cut Tom.

[liviumarila]

Cool concept but I don't like the speedrun thing. For instance, cause of the 2 minute rule, Z missed that the 1st guy had a 19 finishing elite striker as a IF on support... Not much can be observed let alone fixed in 2 mins imo.

[JamesKennedy]

The cutting off of Tom's time overruns was quality! 😂

[Zevrael]

Even though this was a fun watch, I would say that sys is not the place to use a time limit. If my save was one of the ones you picked for this episode, I'd feel a bit disadvantaged compared to the quality and quantity of feedback others have gotten.

[MikeTotem]

This crossover is glorious. Hoping for 425 videos in this universe :)

VIDEO IDEA:Take others people saves (that they have problems with) have another person do the same and who ever has the best season wins

[loonyloser]

SYS is my favorite thing on your channel, Z, and I know you wanted to take advantage of Tom visiting you in NYC to make some content together but I'm not sure this was the best way to do it. Giving you both a few minutes to look through the save before beginning the timer, giving 3 minutes instead of 2, something feels like it should have been done differently to be more helpful to those whose saves were being saved this month.

[riccardomartinelli]

would have never thought mesut ozil was a football manager expert

[metafpgamer]

Make it 3 mnutes, i think 2 minutes is too short

[ryerock]

I think if you guys want to do this again because it's a great idea either a: increase the time limit, duh. Or B: which I think is better is look around the save first before you save it. With Zealand in particular you're spending probably a good 40 or so seconds each video just gathering information yourself and I think it's fine if you look through the staff, the data etc before you actually start speaking

[Jb]

9:06 Is that Morten Gamst-Pedersen?! WOW I haven't heard that name in years!

[pwalmsley]

Interesting that the big common theme of these saves are the defensive problems. I think being defensively solid on this year's FM (particularly after the recent update) has definitely been a lot harder to achieve than before. I'm tending to have to play more attacking to outscore teams rather than try to be cautious. Parking the bus feels basically suicidal on FM23.
