Episode 7: Midfield Mastery - Strategies for Building Around the Advanced Playmaker Role The FM Technical Area - A Football Manager Podcast

Welcome to the Technical Area, your FM podcast brought to you by Gaffer Graemo.

Every team needs a star. Last time it was a Shadow Striker, this time it's an Advanced Playmaker. We're evolving from building around a deep-lying goalscorer to the orchestrator pulling the strings from the pockets behind the front line. Isn't this the player we all need to build around?

This week, we:


Define the role of the Advanced Playmaker
Analyse the squad makeup needed to bring out the best in an Advanced Playmaker
Dissect the tactical considerations needed to make a Advanced Playmaker the team's star
Discuss the counterarguments of focusing on one star, but pose an evolutionary solution that may not be as long-term or sustainable as I initially hoped
