Invasion Of The Inverted (Wingback)
On this week’s podcast, Matt’s nearly completed another season at Kettering so he provides us an update of his progress (or lack thereof) in the Vanarama National. With the use of the inverted wingbacks being an in-vogue football topic of discussion, we decided to take a look at how the IWB role can be used within FM, how to use it effectively and what other roles you should look to combine it with. There’s also a quiz that totally wasn’t thought up 5 minutes before we started recording… Links mentioned in this week’s pod:Joe’s Valencia blog: https://5starpotential.com/fm23-blogs/valencia-s01e01 https://5starpotential.com/news-blog/2020/6/3/lower-league-management If you've enjoyed the podcast, please leave a 5 star review on iTunes.

A Pep In Their Step
On this week’s podcast, Joe gives us a sneak peek into his new save with Valencia and what tempted him to cross the ‘Derbi de la Comunitat’ divide. Our main topic of discussion this week is team talks, the ones we rely on, the ones we avoid like the plague and how we treat those underperformers in the dressing room straight after an awful performance.
