A few days ago, I got pinged into oblivion saying Ollie Dixon was playing Football Manager and mentioned me. I sprung into action to figure out the most important part of this sentence: who is Ollie Dixon, and who is ChrisMD. This is apparently surprising to people but given I’m in the United States just playing football manager in my bedroom, I don’t know who these people are. After educating myself, it was time to break down the tactics, scouting, and beer consumption of my new virtual friend Ollie.
He followed me on Twitter so I feel like that’s a safe assumption. This was fun, if you like these videos, there are a lot of opportunities because everyone in English youtube seems to play football manager at some point in their creator arc. If that is a thing, if it’s not I’m creating a copyright, I’ll reinvest the proceeds in football manager advertisement in America so I can hang out with my own kind again. Nothing against Ollie and Chrismd and such, but their conception of biscuits is very different than mine. I’ll stick to Football Manager, then.
Much Love,
The Zealand

He's throwing a water bottle at his players in a FRIENDLY 🤣🤣
Typical Ollie
Assert Dominance. If they think you're crazy, they won't step out of line.
the whole point of the save is aggression
@@joewood791 that’s very David Brent!
@@joewood791 Roy Keane, Brian Clough method
never in my entire life would i ever expected to see this crossover
I am just as shocked as you my man
Literally(I got the reply for this year)
"only psycopath manage all their friendlies"
*nervous sweating* umh, yeah you tell em boss...
I micromanage everything, not least the friendlies, it allows me to bleed younger players in and try out players in alternate positions to get experience there as well as match fitness, and see who looks like they're ready to step up or could at least plug a gap in an emergency.
@@jonisilk that’s a lot of time though, just a question, does it not get boring if you keep having to spend hours at a time just to get one youngster a little bit of game time
@@smudgedfudge7098 Not in my experience. Just hit key highlights and mass sub around the 69th minute.
@@Hyde_Hill same, except 11sub at half time
@@smudgedfudge7098 as Hyde said - key highlights and give them 60-75mins then subs, depending on condition/match fitness. I also handpick my friendlies to ease the team in with sides we should be beating, rarely playing a top side unless I really need the gate money.
As soon as Ollie starts talking about Zealand.
*Ego Expanding*
This is the collab of dreams, thank you ChrisMD
It’s a more kinda joke series compared to the normal fm save. Going against the norm Ollie. We love it. Rule Britannia
Brexit is no joke. Only the mighty english👊💪🏻🍺🍺
@@MichaelJones-hp3kl Only the mighty english... shoot themselves in the foot and call it a perfect hit.
ChrisMD, Ollie and Zealand? This is crossover
Zealand teaching Ollie the difference between Foster and Forster
Ollie: So the Aussie Beer plays for Watford right?
Zealand: (double face palm)
I can't be the only one that just learned about match review... Right?
I can't lie, that long throws tactic it OP. Thank you Zealand
(The face he pulls at 10:29 knows it too)
You dragged me out of depression with this video somehow
My brother is intelectually disabled, he is 32 years old but behaves like 5 or 7. He grew up watching me play Championship Manager and wanted to play himself but struggled with all the finances, tactics, squad management, etc. So I taught him how to add a new manager to the next opposition, move the goalkeeper out of position or put a field player on goal and voilá. He became succesful and enjoyed the game ever since. He still plays the 03/04 game and refuses to try new versions due to their complexity.
Some might say he is cheating but all I care is that he is having fun watching his teams win 34 - 0. And that's all I care.
Great videos, keep up the good work!
To be honest I don't know how people either new to Football or new to the Football Manager series even manage to enjoy playing as there are so many options and little things that could stop a team being successful. I've played since early Championship Manager (even remember one early version that was just the Italian league). If I hadn't played most year's versions though and just jumped straight in then I would be confused as anything so I understand why someone would enjoy Championship Manager more regardless of if they are mentally disabled or not as it's a lot more simplified. As you say, the main thing is your brother enjoying the game though and really if any manager had the power to move the goalkeeper out of position and ruin the other teams tactics when they played them they would so your brother is making some rational decisions if you think of it like that.
@@radiusone216 Thank you for understanding
A yank teaching a brit about football, never thought I'd see the day
This is an iconic duo 😂
I feel personally attacked by this amount of luck.
I'd love to see you review the start of one of Doctor Benjy's seasons
10:58 Look up a You Tube compilation of all Stoke's goals from Rory Delap throw ins Zealand, you will see many worse real life atrocities than that...
He actually threw it 60 yards into the net once because the defenders and goalkeeper missed it. No goal as per the rules.
Roster building ideas: Ollie is worse than Arteta
Tactics: This guy makes Arteta look like a beer league manager.
Arteta is good now
I didn't expect a very fun collaboration with Ollie. As he played this game very well but oh boy did he just managing friendlies.
Id love to see an online save with these 2
OH MY, THE CROSSOVER I DIDN’T KNOW I NEEDED
This feels very Mike Bassett "Four four fucking two"
Can't believe i'm watching a 100% ironic FM series being critiqued
I knew who Ollie was because of ChrisMD, never knew he played FM 😂 brexitball looks like a fun time though
New to the channel, love the videos Zealand!
Zealand you are the best CZcamsr ❤️
Zealand is now two contacts away from the sidemen
I'm a simple man, Zealand uploads a video. I watch the video.
This is the crossover we deserve
I always manage friendlies. It gives me an idea on how to use my players properly in competitve matches...
Long throws was literally the corner stone of the most legendary brexit teams ever
2010-2013 Pulis Stoke City
For the match engine, I would agree with you, especially at a professional level it shouldn't happen at all, except, it does sometimes because humans are crazy stupid and ineffective with their brains and at this level, a moment of hesitation, a moment of doubt, a moment of uncertainty actually does mean that this happens. Especially when it's a pre-season game that no one cares about. So it's frustrating but not totally unrealistic
Feel like Big Sam has become, somewhat unfairly, synonymous with playing route one football. Plus, lets not forget Leicester won the league launching hoofs over the defense for Vardy to run onto.
Some of Big Sam's teams have played fairly slick counter-attacking football, especially when there's no big lump upfront to punt it at.
@@defeatstatistics7413 sometimes he hoofed it up to Jay Jay Okocha
Wasting time for me is useful during the parts of the season where we are playing 2-3 games a week. It seems to help manage fatigue better than having them constantly running end to end.
This is some prime content
Grealish is pronounced - Gray-lish - Irish name, he played for Ireland until he switched over to the old enemy, it's every British commentator and pundit pronouncing his name wrong - like many Irish names, such as Gallagher, pronounced Gall-ah-her, (g is silent) and Cahill, pronounced Cah-hill, emphasis on ah, as an Irish man hearing the British sports media butcher Irish names is like nails on a chalkboard, love the channel by the way, great stuff 👍
I think 4-4-2 direct is the best counter to the gegenpress tactics, so it should work very well in the premier league
how are you gonna press a team that hates having the ball?
Realising that Ollie has more subscribers than Zealand 😂
Zealand, you are hilarious!
I manage all of my friendlies, watchu guna say bro?
Doesn't everybody?
@@Britonbear I don’t. I let my assistant
@@Joeavfc1 same, it's just way faster that way
@@Joeavfc1 I use to but then the summer transfer windows take ages
Please do a part 2
The beer reactions has me rolling.
I manage all my friendlies! The AI is notoriously bad at ensuring all the players get match sharpness etc. Plus good team talks to up morale. So I always manage them. This will improve your performance.
I’m not sure if Zealand understood the sarcasm 🤣
So if I manage west ham, I can drink whenever I like?
Think you took this abit to seriously 😂😂
I was drinking a beer at 11 am who knows
Medicare joke was heat
It's interesting that a "Brexit" Team is only english players. Shows a lot.
Scotland and Northern Ireland voted against leaving, but he could have had a token Welshman in there.
guess what country west ham are from
@@lewismoffat918 isn't west ham from London?
I suspect that’s very deliberate.
You may have realised by now... That's the point
Gotta love Zealand
Yeah I did British steel challenge won league and CL with Leicester after 6 years. It's a fun challenge but frustrating as hell when for once you get good youth intake players but there Portuguese so have to let them go.
Thought it was Ollie Ball for a minute
So when I finally win the EuroMillions and decide to buy my local football team, I'm definitely going to hire Zealand as my general manager, or at least lead data manager...
do mark goldbrige next!
tbf I signed David alaba thinking it was alphonso davies
this crossover is more ambitious than avengers endgame
Pls become FM's Pokemon Challenges
I know why he brought Foster because he has a crate of Fosters before researching who the hell Frazer Forster was!
What do u meeeeean i play all my friendlies to refine the tactic and make sure its good enough to use or to make any tweaks
How do you not know who Chris MD is
i've managed every single friendly match of every save I've ever done on any CM or FM game. since 1997😂😂i had no idea i was a psychopath loool. maybe I'll trust my assistants from now on haha.
I can't belive u don't know who chrismd is
He would have tore up the Vanarama North with those tactics.
Ollie in streamer showdown??
Rory delap is proud😂😂
Haha, I do manage all my friendlies xD
Omg i watched his orignial brexit fc series
How has this happened
ABOUT A WEEK AGOOOOO
Did you not establish that it’s a joke?
Init😂
Well, guess I'm a psychopath
Is that Chris md cousin
But everyone in england has healthcare
"Healthcare"
Phil Jones... my God.
Love that you have no idea who ChrisMD is. Don’t get caught up the CZcams personality nonsense just stay good at what you do.
How tf did he made that throw?
Do ya want relish with ya Grelish?
ABOUT A WEEK AGO, WEEKAGOOOOOO
I manage my friendly
7:12 TIL I'm a psychopath...
Honestly surprised he is the only defensive/anti-football series maker on CZcams.
Foster - Forester - Friggin English names sound all the same!
1 Out of 10 for Ollie's Top
And the only time to wear that Hat is if you're extremely drunk!
I manage all my friendlies... :(
You realise this Ollie isn't taking this seriously, yeah, and is just doing this for the meme?
Oh 100%
@@ZealandonYT oh, okay. Just you were giving some actual legit advice & seemed to be taking it seriously
7:50 yup.. Still not fixed in Fm22.. You know it better zee....
Ollie needs to adjust his roles to the players he has, or he's going to get rekt.
ChrisMD's cousin
Right I don't quite understand the Allardyce bashing. Plenty of relentless passing tactics are dull af. He simply wants to be the most pragmatic and efficient at getting results. Have we not all thought along that mindset at some point playing FM?
At this point I think Zealand is more English than Ollie
These set piece tactics are borderline cheating like the old corner tactic in fm13.
Not convinced Zealand is that good on this game either without using those.
9:35 for the longest time I thought they had the same last name. I could have sworn. Definitely the "Mandela Effect" conspiracy theory at work.
Worlds collide
4:38 hahahaha
he knows more mr Z than he’s letting on
"Only Psychopaths manage all their friendlies..."
Emm so what do you call the person who for some weird game/database reason also has to manage and watch all their U23 and U18 games too? That's right for some unknown reason in my save despite having staff hired and set in the responsibilities section, the game is making me handle every single match day for the U23s and the U18s, this is making playing one season take about an eternity.
A psycopath
Too bad those long throws don’t really work anymore.....
Lol its ChrisMDs bro
How is big Sam anti football?
Its Florida bruh, drink whenever you feel like it
I am completely lost at 13:50.
