Manfred Schmid

I watch matches mainly through the context of player movement and the tactic that a team's manager puts on the team. I watch the ball itself through highlights only. I have been playing Football Manager continuously since the Championship Manager series, 1992. Since 2007 I have been running tests on successive engines collecting, comparing and analysing tactical data from as far back as FM2005. I am an honest craftsman. I have just surpassed 10,000 hours in the game and my Excel has over 23,000 rows in 63 columns. I also publish on fmscout.com and passion4fm.com.
