Do you think it was a step towards realism? And how did you react to appearing in FM?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: Yes, it brings the game closer to the reality we live in football today; they are very distinct roles. For those who play FM and like detail, there is one more thing to keep them entertained and make their teams more competitive.<\/p>\n<p>I found it really funny and obviously felt proud. I always kept playing FM, CM back then, and after all these years being able to appear in the game shows me that the whole journey so far has been worth it, from my student days, childhood and adolescence, to adulthood now, focusing on what I always wanted: being involved in football.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: There are three specific attributes in the game: Presenting reports, Team data analysis and Individual player data analysis. What do you think of the attributes chosen, and which one do you feel most comfortable with in your professional life?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: Those three attributes are important because they cover qualitative and quantitative information, not only to discover and interpret what the opponent is hiding, but also to give us valid information about our own team and its current moment; it brings the game closer to reality, always with due distance. In my professional life I've always felt more comfortable with qualitative\/descriptive information, with what I see and take from analysing the game, but always paying close attention to quantitative data; when well filtered and interpreted, it is crucial to the information you pass on.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: Although you mainly work on decoding tactical systems and their dynamics as an analyst, you can also offer <em>input<\/em> on possible player signings. At Leix\u00f5es, did you ever look up how certain targets of yours were rated in the game, even if just as a final layer of information to validate your opinion?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: We're talking about FM, perhaps the biggest player database in the world, where the values given to players are ever closer to what they really are, as are the values given for their future potential. Yes, there was curiosity to look at some players, to try to find more information about them.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: And outside work, when you see a player from a less known team having a good game on TV, have you never been curious to see how he's rated in FM?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: Not so much now, because I don't have much time to play hehe, but yes, especially at big tournaments, Euros and World Cups, but more curious about the young talents coming through. One Euros that fascinated me was the 2007 under-21s, which the Netherlands won, and I started following some stars who were emerging, like Drenthe, Maduro, Vlaar and Babel.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-539 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fmportugal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/39245837_219189192088284_7107470004936769536_n.jpg\" alt=\"Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo\" width=\"1440\" height=\"810\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: Going back to the start, how did your interest in analysing team behaviour come about? Did you have a football background? And what do you find harder: analysing youth or senior games?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: This interest in analysing the game always existed, and at a certain point in my life I decided it would be my way into professional football. As well as playing football when I was younger, I began my journey as a youth coach, while doing analyses of various teams and posting them on social media.<\/p>\n<p>In youth or senior football there are excellent game ideas that make my work of picking apart the opponent appealing; the big difference for me is the information available. In senior football we have access to several platforms to watch games, which unfortunately doesn't happen in youth football. In the 2nd Liga, for example, there's an agreement between clubs\/analysts to put their home games on a platform so every team can study each other on equal terms.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: And where did the CM\/FM bug come in amid all that?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: It was at school; at the time I only played PlayStation and the usual football games. I became a fan and never stopped playing, buying the new versions year after year.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: Did you spend many hours playing and like exploring the database in search of possible stars still unknown to most people?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: Yes, I spent a lot of time playing, especially during school holidays, real all-nighters. I would hire several <em>olheiros<\/em> and send them everywhere to find those unknowns. I remember two in particular: Radoslaw Kaluzny, a Polish defensive midfielder who played for Energie Cottbus, and striker Gianni Comandini, an Italian who played for Vicenza and moved to Milan.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_561\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-561\" style=\"width: 547px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-561 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/fmportugal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/kaluzny-11.jpg\" alt=\"Kaluzny\" width=\"547\" height=\"430\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-561\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kaluzny<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>POP: Andr\u00e9 Villas-Boas played CM, then moved into <em>scouting<\/em> and analysis and later became a manager. Have you ever thought about being a manager, and is it still your goal to do it at senior level?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: Right now I don't have that desire; I'm enjoying my role in football and I still have a lot to develop and learn. Not wanting it for now doesn't mean I don't feel prepared for the role; in the future, who knows.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: What direction would you like FM to take in the future? Stay a tactical strategy game or become something more graphical, like FIFA?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: I think the future of the game is to keep being a simulator linked to tactical strategy, where whoever plays can have more and more variables to control, more decisions to make, and can create an identity in the teams they manage.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>POP: Tell us a funny story about your experiences with the game?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo: I remember winning the <em>Champions<\/em> playing on a friend's computer while he was away for a few hours, I can't remember why (my computer was old and super slow so I fed my addiction on his). When he got back I told him I'd won the final 1-0 and the scorer was an unknown, a certain <strong>Luca Toni<\/strong>, and we laughed at that name so many times, an unknown who years later became a reference at the teams he played for and in the Italian national team.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Quick answer<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><strong>1st edition? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CM 99\/00<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite edition? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don't have a favourite<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite league to play in? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Portuguese and Italian<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite team to manage besides FC Porto? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ajax and Inter Milan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which do you prefer: Current ability rating or Future potential rating?<\/strong> Future potential rating<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which country would you like to go to to analyse teams? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Italy and England<\/p>\n<p><strong>Posse, <em>Kick and Rush<\/em> ou misto? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Posse<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who wants to follow a bit of his work can do so at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/laboratoriodomister\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Laborat\u00f3rio do Mister<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_564\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-564\" style=\"width: 762px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-564 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/fmportugal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/joc3a3o-araujo-fm1.png\" alt=\"Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo no FM2018\" width=\"762\" height=\"555\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-564\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jo\u00e3o Ara\u00fajo in FM2018<\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Para al\u00e9m da componente t\u00e1ctica do jogo, o scouting \u00e9 uma das ferramentas mais importantes do Football Manager, para alcan\u00e7ar o sucesso no longo prazo.
