@ZaZ How would you adapt the schedule for weeks when theres travel? If travel after the Saturday game, I'm doing full rest with manual rest on monday and moving match practice to wednesday and moving defending to tuesday just to make the load for each day a bit less (not sure if that matters). What training would you put on the previous sunday, the day after the game?

Footballenjoyer said: The only issue with this schedule is there's no significant increase between 2x physical training and 7 x physical training per week shown in multiple test ran in other posts in this forum.
Looks like the only way to speed up physical attribute growth is intensity. Then it's either max CA growth schedule on half intensity or the Chinese forum method that prioritize physical while trying to delay as much decay of non physical attributes. Expand
Can you share the link to the other forum where they discuss 2 x physical vs 7 x physical?
ZaZ said: Unfortunately, travel gets in the way of super rest. In that case, it might be wiser to set rest for the next day after travel. Expand
@ZaZ If you're travelling and set the superrest for Matchday + 2, would you have trainings on the Matchday +1? My thinking is using your rest setup, only the guys who havent played or played minimally anyway and it would give them a chance to get extra training or would you have 2 days of rest with the 2nd being the superrest day?
keithb said: I would suggest making all your games played on wednesday and Saturday and then having 3x rest sessions only on Thursday and Sunday. And also setup auto test for no pitch or gym work unless full green. And when players are excellent condition but still tired again rest them for one day. You don't need to do the latter when playing one game a week but when two it's definitely the best thing to do. Expand
ZaZ said: Yes, that is what I do, together with automatic rest.
I have been away from FM for a while since I was playing other games. I kind of stopped having fun with FM24, and the break will help me enjoy more FM25. Expand
I was just a bit thrown when selecting rest after a Sat game, it was saying 2 days rest but i'm guessing thats Sat evening + all Sunday as an example
I've used this for a while now and its a bit of a game changer too be honest. Mostly in that the amount of rotation necessary is a lot less. Playing two matches per week, I was working with a squad of 29 and having to faff around with circumventing registration rules but this has removed this now
pixar said: My friend, with your method, my injuries have decreased significantly and my players continue their physical-mental-technical development. I do not give my players individual training. I only provide weak foot strengthening training for my eligible players. They usually solve it in 1 season. I do not give my players manual holidays. But I play in rotation. I play with my main squad in Europe, with my reserve squad in the matches I play at home before or after the European matches in the league, with my main squad in the remaining matches and finally with my reserve squad in the local cups.
The key to this program is to give players full rest (for 3 sessions) the day after match days. If there is no match on Wednesday-Saturday, it is just a corner routine or shot stopping training for goalkeepers. Additionally, if there is no match on Wednesday, I added team bonding training to the evening session to boost team harmony and motivation.
I played 6 seasons with 24.3.0 using this method. I play my matches on Wednesday-Saturday.
Below is a preview of the training program and download links.
Cheers.

How would you adapt this for only one match day per week?
EvensenFM said: Just wanted to thank you for taking the lead with this research.
I'll start using your schedule in my save and will let you know how things develop.
I'm playing in DarthFurion's World Super League, so there are two matches per week. I'll adjust accordingly.
Chances are that it's not going to be too far off EBFM's schedule in the end, though. I agree that game time is king — and I think Max (EBFM) said that in one of his videos. Expand
@EvensenFM How did you apdapt this for 2 matches per week?
Birdman said: It almost doesn't matter. I have tested multiple schedules, and surprisingly enough, most of them don't even outperform the default training schedule. In the tests I conducted, most of the CA growth was achieved on this schedule:
Thanks! Is it the schedule in the 1st post? I saw that but then saw there was more discussion about updating it and wasn't sure if that was still the most up to date version
I have just migrated to fm24 and am tying to sell players. In previous versions I would offer them out and get an instant response being either an offer or a message saying no offers for said player. Will I get a message saying there are no offers if I offer them through Transfer Room?
Edit - From testing it seems to take about a week to get an answer whereas in previous games it took 1-2 days. Is this other peoples experience?
For the 1st time in my adult FM career I have decided to play the game with attribute masking on and without 3rd party software.
Previously I would use GS and the ratings from here and choose players to sign that way.
I've realised I have no idea how to choose players using this new way.
I know i want to focus on the meta attributes rather than a GS rating but whats the best way to find players with those attributes?
Do i search the players in my range and then scout the ones with highest attribute ranges in the meta attributes? Then increase the range o the player search as my club climbs the leagues or is there another way of uncovering attributes?
Mark said: I did. Still testing the different ratings files for FM24 Expand
I'm always one FM behind, so have just started on FM23. I read in this thread you flittered between yk balanced ratings and the MDW22. Do you prefer one?
Also I had a quick look at some players using the MDW22. The highest rated player interested in joining me had 9/10 Pace and Acceleration. Would you still sign this player? It didnt sit right with me that I'd sign players with such low speed, as we are always pushing that physicals are the most important, but this might be subjective bias. What are your thoughts?
What is the etiquette of testing tactics published by other authors on different sites? Of course referencing them as the author and not claiming the tactic as my own. I'm thinking of the well known names in the community who always publish successful tactics and it would be nice to compare them against the tactics here. Is it allowed?

I'm also using 'Encourage' shout when drawing and 'Praise' shout when winning.
I watch games on key highlight mode.
Is there anything else I can do to increase my chance of winning without micro managing games?
Thanks!
